Atlantis is an external soundcard for all Amiga systems. The core is made up of a Motorola 56002 DSP (digital signal processor), which is clocked at 80 Mhz. This DSP can make any kind of sound generation, such as decoding MPG audio streams. The Amiga multitasking is not loaded when playing back music: All the calculation power necessary for decoding an MPG stream is located on the Atlantis soundcard.

The card is connected to the floppy-port of any Amiga. When playing back MP1, MP2 or MP3 streams, the internal disk drives (df0:, df1: etc.) are simply "busy".

The DSP inside the Atlantis is freely programmable, that means it can solve nearly any sound problem. You could have effects like echo, flanging, surround-decoding or a simple delay.
