Creative Labs and Media Vision drivers for OS/2 should be out in 1-2
weeks.  Supposedly, the Media Vision drivers are done, but just haven't
shipped yet.  Take this with a wee grain of salt, but it is hopeful.

Hmmm...how about sending it to the moderator of comp.binaries.ibm.pc, or how
about mailing it to the moderator of one of the ftp sites, or to someone who
has access to ftp.  In case you didn't know, posting binaries (even small
files, and PD/Freeware/Shareware) is a _BIG_ no no.  If you want to distribute
a program to the net, and do not have access to ftp, you can offer to mail it
to anyone that is willing to put it on an ftp site (so that others can
download it at their leisure).  Posting binaries to discussion groups in
violation of the group's charter is _not_ an option.  If you want the program
posted, sollow the directions for submitting to comp.binaries.ibm.pc, a
MODERATED group for posting binaries.

The reasons for observing such rules include that binaries freely posted to
discussion groups have no protection against virii, bombs and trojans, no
quality control to insure that they work properly, and no flow control against
unnecessary reposts, crappy programs or corrupted files, etc.  Groups that
have a large volume (that inevitably results from unmoderated binary posts
from a significant number of readers) causes groups to be dropped from many
sites, or given a very short expiration period.

Please DO NOT do this again.  (And to others, I would be VERY WARY of files
like this if I were you.  I'm certainly not going to try it!  If it's a good
program, someone will post it to an appropriate group and / or post it to an
ftp site...)

256k is definitely "squat" if you plan on making music that fills the
CD specs for amplitude resolution and sample rate, but for the quality
we're accustomed to from mod files, it's quite sufficient.  The bare
Ultrasound will make a great audio card for game players and the 
budding audio hobbyist.  If you want a bit more oomf, you can get the
daughter cards which add a couple more features.  If you need more
memory, the card is expandable to 1M.  The Ultrasound won't ever reach
the professional level, but as an amateur piece of equipment, it 
seems much better than any audio card in its class (SB Pro, PAS-16, 
etc.)  Now, if only it gets released.

Hi out there,

I'looking to by a new soundcard for my pc (runing under OS/2, SCO-UNIX and DOS)
for some private but "serious" purposes (MIDI-Studio, sampling etc.).

This card should support the following features:

	- complete MIDI support
	- acceptable synthisizer sounds (PCM or at least Yamaha OPL3 Chip - or
	  both ;-)
	- 44.1 kHz, 16 Bit stereo sampling ability
	- there should be at least a development-kit available better some
	  existand software in direction MIDI-studio (perhaps for OS/2?)

Maybe that's a FAQ, but as I cannot read from this group, please be so kind
and reply by e-mail.

I also would apreciate usefull hints for any soundcards better than Soundblaster
Pro (perhaps some newer than I heared from) and especially for any usefull
EXPIERIENCES.

Sincerly

     SCOPTRAX will only deal with .VOC and RAW files ( at least v1.0

     There's the SPUTTER series of programs.  These can talk to just
about any device out there, including an arbitrary port addressed
DAC.  I use SPUT to talk to the resistor-ladder DAC I have on LPT2.

     They're kidding, right?  Certainly you cannot distribute the
modified driver, but they cannot tell you what to do for your own
use.  Further, if you wrote your OWN DEBUG script ( masochistic, to be
sure ), they cannot tell you what to do with it.

     I suggest you call Disney's BBS @ 818-567-4027 and download the
Windows driver for the Disney Sound Source.  It's a parallel port DAC
with some extra control circuitry to gate it on and off.  Works fine
with a normal DAC that doesn't include such nonsense.  Recommended.

Is there such a thing as a MOD file player that works at IRQ 10. I have
a Sound Choker Pro(?) card which cannot be configured at a lower
IRQ. It'd be NICE to have this capability.

PS Most of the DOS software i've tried BOMBS when my IRQ is set at 10.
   The reason for IRQ 10, I have the rest of my IRQ's filled:
   IRQ 2=mouse
       3=serial port
       4=serial port
       5=scanner card by Logitech
       7=printer port which cannot be shared with sound choker pro.
       10=Sound Choker Pro

Ok guys... I've been watching this section for a while and noticed quite a few
people asking basically the same thing... "I'm looking for a soundboard for my
386/486/etc. - what's the best?"  I believe there is about 2 or 3 categories to
place these beasts in

a) basic card (e.g., Adlib, SoundBlaster, GameBlaster, etc.)
b) advanced card (e.g., SoundBlaster Pro Basic, others?)
c) MIDI/CD ROM (read: Multimedia) (e.g., Gravis Ultrasound, SoundBlaster Pro, etc.)

I'm personally looking for something in b) or possibly c). 

Does someone out there have a compiled list of these beasts and which does what and
how good each is, etc?  And would they mind posting it?  Is this something that
could be FAQ'ed (NOTE: I'm not volunteering for this - just asking).

Thanks in advance,
  Norm.

P.S. Don't email me 'cause I know that I'm not the only one asking these questions
and I'd like others to see the results too.  Tanks by.

   Could be, but last time I saw an upgrade from Creative Labs, you
had to buy from them at list price in order to get the trade-in
discount.  The price that resulted was extremely close to "street"
price for the new hardware, which made it more sensible to sell
your old metal on the used market, and buy the new mailorder.

Hi there,

I've got a bit of a problem with my new SBPro. A couple of months back I 
upgraded my SB 1.5 to a Pro 2.0 and was disappointed to discover that 
Civilisation (v3) now sounds terrible compared to what it was with my plain 
old SB. Specifically it sounds as though the card is playing music in slow 
motion and there is a fair bit of interference in what sound there is. This 
problem only happens in Civ; Ultima7,Falcon3,Wolf3d all sound fine. 

SBPro settings 220, IRQ 5, DMA 1

Anyone had similar problems??? Know of a fix????????

     If it's any consolation, new Windows drivers are in general beta

     I've been following MediaVision's section on CompuServe, and I've
seen *LOTS* of complaints, and a few kudos to MediaVision.  It hasn't
been a pretty sight.  However, they do seem to answer questions in a
couple of days or so (which is fine, in my opinion, considering how
difficult it supposedly is to get through to them on the phone).

     I've got a PAS16 multimedia kit with the NEC double-speed CDROM
drive, and I've been happy with it.  I'm certainly happy that
MediaVision is constantly fixing and updating their drivers, which is
better than certain other hardware manufacturers, Whom I Shall Not Name.

Pointers to DOS binaries which will do this for me are of
no use, since I'll be using 386BSD exclusively. Source code
is, of course, welcome :-)

Thanks in advance,

Hi. I'm a newbie in the area of soundcards. I'm thinking of buying a
PC, with a soundblaster pro and perhaps a roland. Originally th pc was
going to be for documentation and games, but I now wish to do work
with MIDI with it....


  My question is....

 Can you use either SB Pro or Roland as a module to play midi tracks,
or do you need to buy extra modules above those in your keyboard ???


I'm not sure if I've phrased this right. It's the girlfriend who's the
musical one, not me :-(

thanks in advance,

   Paul.
