How to get a nice sounding chime tone

[rookie11]

What I learned is that I need to generate, say, 2 or 3 tones on different pins, and tie them together.

I found an interesting example done using another compiler (http://users.picbasic.org/projects/making_music/) and interrupts. In my application, I don't really see the need of using interrupts since gerating this chime will be the only thing that my PIC will be doing.

What I don't understand is how to do is generate 3 frequencies at the same time on 3 different pins. Any tips on this?

Well, if you check that code, and take a look at the PBP manual, you'll find they are very similar. Most likely the other code will probably port right over to PBP format with very few changes.

Hi Rookie11,
word on the street is square wave output from a PIC is rather harsh, and to put an inductor (choke) in series with the output to soften up the pulse train into something more like a sine wave.
