Here is what I learned about the 32-notes and the background music queue. Technically, the queue is 32 notes but the queue contains the pause following a note as a separate entry. In other words, the number of notes in the queue depends on the note length. You can see this if you play the music legato:
10 PLAY "mbml"
20 PLAY "cdefgcdefgcdefgcdefgcdefgcdefgcde"
30 PRINT PLAY(0)

Hi Steve, thanks, I didn't realise that! I thought the 32 notes in the documentation was simply wrong, but clearly it's a bit more complicated. I'll play around with this a bit.
