I'm thinking of upgrading my current PC sound system (a Sound Blaster Pro on a 386 under Windows 3.1.  Having worked considerably with NeXT hardware, I have
come to realize that the SB Pro is... shall we say, inadequate.  Are there any
inexpensive (like SB Pro or a little higher in price) sound boards that have
better synthesis than just FM, a standard SCSI CD-ROM port, and 16-bit 44.1 kHz
sampling capabilities?  Does anyone know of the imminent release of anything
matching these parameters?

You want your cake, as they say. The Multisound by Turtle Beach has what you,
less the SCCI port, but not a SB prices. As the saying goes...

"You get what you pay for."

PS: Wait. Prices will drop eventually. Of course, you will probably
be behind everybody else, but you will save money.
