This is generic third-party manufactured, it is not actually made by
Ensoniq. (it's just a clone)

Real Ensoniq OEM is better quality, same as used in Intergraph,
Gateway systems. Model # is different.  The Unofficial AudioPCI page
has said that there is a difference in sound quality between Ensoniq
OEM and generic-manufactured AudioPCI cards (the generics are worse).

In fact, here is the report straight off the clone section of Walter
Lord's AudioPCI page: (http://204.186.128.102/)

A-Trend  Harmony (ATC-6515)
Numerous reports of distortion. Beware!
