And, are there any other soundcards available for A1200? (Info about >their support would be good too..) Sound Card Program name ---------------------------------------- Aura 12 Octamed 5.04+ Tocatta Octamed 6+ ---------------------------------------- That's yer lot i'm afraid, Midi is the answer as far as getting improved sound for the Amiga, plus you also can keep the equipment if you swap computers. The main reason for the lack of support for Aura is it's burden on the CPU, it's only use is as an input device for high quality 8-bit sounds, ie. Sample at 12-bit and downgrade to 8. for the price of 5-10 of these sampling cartridges/soundboards you can get a decent midi sampler which will sound about 500% better than most of these boards.
