Audio output design

Hello,

I am trying to find the easiest way to design a circuit that would
allow prerecoded sound (piano, flute, animal sound etc...) to play
whenever a key is pressed. I want to actually recreate those cheap
keyboard you can buy for kids but make it easy to change the sound
bank.

I was wandering if there was any "off the shelf" IC chip that would
allow this type of application. My goal would be to design a keyboard
that would have about 12 notes.

Thank you for you Help.

Rickydou.

I know the ISD chips from Winbond won't do what you want. (multiple
simultaneous notes.)
There was once a chip (AY-3-8910) or something like that, that would.
But good luck finding one.

I think they were used in some early Atari or Commodore computers.??
