Famous 3 voice chips

YM2203 is a 6 channel soundchip with 4 outputs...

I guess the NES chip where you have a fixed triangle and noise channel is something like that, but you can alter the other two tone channels to have different waveforms, though only with 4 different settings.
I thought those aren't really different waveforms, but rather the duty cycle. Or is that the same thing? (:
Plug-in soundcard for Apple-II called ALF MC16 had three voices: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ALF_Products#Apple_Music_Synthesizer_.2F_Music_Card_MC16

Yes technically it's like pulsewidth at different positions, but as you can't specifically glide on a smooth scale it's probably closer to what people think of as fixed waveforms than, say, a SID is.

edit: I mean a SID doing a pulsewidth sweep.
