The code here below works fine. It generates a pulse place modulation signal with 8 channels. HOWEVER If you comment out the Serial.begin(9600) … it does not generate the last (the 8th) channel. It in fact becomes unstable … an 8th channel comes up and moves from a much too small to a much too big…

My code needs Serial.begin to work but I do not need Serial support in my code

Great, I'm glad you got it working without all the extra overhead of the Serial library.
