I do.  Singer is Apple's code name, but it's actually a codec chip
developed and sold by another company (I think the company was called
ITT or something).  I downloaded the PDF datasheet off the Net a while
ago, and I hope it's still buried somewhere in one of my HFS
partitions.  I'll try to get and post the URL when I get home or I
could directly send the PDF to you if you want (provided that I didn't
lose it when my 2G drive died on me).

I think we need to figure out how DMA works for audio I/O, also.  I
tried to disassemble the ROM code but I quickly got lost every time I
tried.
