I've had a Mac Plus for years now (2.5 Megs RAM), and I've spent some of my
time on it digitizing sound, using the Impulse digitizer (note: yeah, I
would have bought the Farrallon digitizer, but it wasn't around when I
bought the Impulse).  I'm now planning to buy an SE/30, and I understand
that it has the "Apple Sound Chip" in it.

Is the A.S.C. basically an enhancement in sound playing or reproduction, or
does it actually have some digitization capabilities?   I thought not, but
this might be a good excuse to sell the Impulse (heck, one way or another, I
should get the Farrallon...)

Thanks in advance (please reply by mail, I'll be happy to forward any
answers.)

                               "JUNGLE HEAT (Interglobal).  Lovable,
                                obscenity-spewing Peter Fonda teams up with
                                frigid, hard-working Deborah Raffin to track
                                down a homicidal, gooey 'lost tribe' who
                                look like midget Sons of Kong on bad
                                Electric Kool-Aid."
