A simple way to get more complex sounds:

• Set a variable with a value.
• When that variable is not some value, play the sound and decrement/increment the variable, otherwise set the volume to zero for that audio channel.
• Use other conditionals ("if" statements) to alter the sound under certain conditions.
• Do a drawscreen at some point in your code to delay things enough so that you can hear the sound.

That will allow you to do a drum sound:

• Often you want the frequency to decrease over a short period of time that the sound is played.
• You can use a conditional to use a different control value for the "hit" of the drum.
• For tom you may want something closer to a sine or square wave maybe (?); the "pure lower" AUDCx value 4 or 12 may be good.
• A rimshot may involve AUDCx 8 (white noise), either to simulate the reverberation of the snare of a snare drum or just because it's noise.

Or, instead, you could:

• Create a data object with values.
• Use those values to set AUDCx, AUDFx, AUDVx.
• Increment the index of the array and stop and set AUDVx to 0 when finished.
• Do a drawscreen at some point in your code to delay things enough so that you can hear the sound.

Sorry- that's not specifically answering your question, but hopefully it helps some.

 

Also, here is a previous similar answer where a kick and snare were simulated:
