Re: Multiple computers, one set of speakers.

Tempus wrote on 2024-01-12, 09:25: I use this 1988 mixer with a 486 and a Pentium 3. Are the inputs stereo? Most pro mixers I've come across have maybe 2 stereo inputs, the rest are all mono. Most DJ mixers seem to be stereo, but only 2-4 channels, so not much good for multiple soundcard/rompler …

Re: Multiple computers, one set of speakers.

Nice! :p I wonder if there is a version with more ports🤔 Lots of options on Aliexpress, active and passive. https://www.aliexpress.com/item/1005006374031832.html?spm=a2g0o.productlist.main.89.5a8bNp9bNp9bjN&algo_pvid=c82242c3-bec3-4161-9522-b502f847e457&algo_exp_id=c82242c3-bec3-4161-9522- …

Re: The LlamaBlaster

I'll be following Crystal's component selection and layout guide, using a 4-layer stackup and good quality caps - hopefully it'll be good. Only way to tell is to try! :) Cool! It's doesn't have to be outrageously good, just better than the cards made back in the 90's, they made them as cheap as …

Re: The LlamaBlaster

Awesome!! The CS423x chips are my favourite ISA soundcard chips. I do like Crystal FM, but a genuine OPL3 is better. If it has a really good analogue stage, I'd definitely build one. EDIT: If it's gonna be an 8-bit card, perhaps putting an XT-IDE interface on it will also be cool, give XT owners the …

Re: Which SB16 should I use?

Yes, PCMIDI is completely bugfree and will work perfectly for this purpose. Yup, +1 Your Labway Yamaha card probably uses a YMF71x chip. Those are excellent cards with bugfree MPU-401. I use one of those alongside my AWE64, and they work great in tandem. Agreed. The YMF71X cards are one of the best …

Re: Which SB16 should I use?

See this thread: https://www.vogons.org/viewtopic.php?f=62&t=60063 In summary, the X2GS won't run so great on any SB16 due to the various MPU-401 bugs on those cards. More info here . You can bypass this by getting a cheap, secondary sound card which doesn't have those issues, and relegating all …

Re: Games with true SC-88 support.

Following on with Shadow Warrior, the Sound Canvas VST with the SC-88 map sounds even closer to the CD soundtrack than a real SC-88Pro in SC-88 mode. The timpani in A10tion.mid is spot on with the VST, not quite right with a real SC-88Pro in SC-88 mode. The VST does emulate the SC-8820, so I'm not …
