I suppose the reason I'm worried is that I used to have a 'sound generator' on my ZX81* and it sounded terrible :)

i read that the "sound generator" as they have labelled it is actually nothing new and similar to a system used in porka boxters and a few other high end sports cars to ensure the true sound of the engine actually filters through to the cabin over a certain level of rpm.
