Just a thought: In that case, the program might play smoother if you omit the inner loop, since the 50g supports list processing. Also, none of the variables are needed. Omit the 1 'N' STO, and replace everything after the end of the list with the following:

1 10 START DUP 0.08 BEEP NEXT DROP »

That makes it run quite a bit faster, it's now better to change the note length to 0.1 to slow it down a little. I guess it will leave less time between beeps, which has to help.

Thanks for sharing that trick.
