Bit of a weird question--

    Is it possible to plug an IBM compatible sound card--say one with
wavetable synth--into the PC slots in an A4000, and use it via MIDI
WITHOUT having a bridgecard (intel comp processor) also installed in the
system?

    After all, it should get all the power it needs from the bus.

    If not, would a cheap bridgecard suffice? (an 8086 board?)

Thanks, Doug
