Uhm... IIRC, Live! and later stream samples from host RAM using DMA. (That's how they support multi-open on the audio API side as well.) I think AWE64 was the last card I used that had on-board waveform memory - and I'm not even sure about that. I definitely remember adding a pair of SIMM modules to my AWE32 card, though. :-) But either way, I don't quite see the point in using a hardware sampleplayer these days either. -- //David Olofson - Consultant, Developer, Artist, Open Source Advocate .--- Games, examples, libraries, scripting, sound, music, graphics ---. | http://consulting.olofson.net http://olofsonarcade.com | '---------------------------------------------------------------------' _______________________________________________ Linux-audio-user mailing list Linux-audio-user@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.linuxaudio.org/listinfo/linux-audio-user
