Thats the one I do use actually (just checked prefs) I had Unit 3 set to
that for some reason, I think it was because I was fiddling with AmigaAMP
trying to get decent sound.

Well thats great then :-) Roll on the soundcard support! Anyone heard
anything about the soundcard support on the G-Rex yet?

Welllll.. considering the time Elbox have said it will be available soon I
would hope so, but some how I doubt it! ;-/

It'll do the job for decent quality sound playback (although I hear that the
Paula chipset can still shame the modern PC cards in some areas still!!
:-)) )

Most important of the lot really aint it! :-)

I have never really looked at MIDI that much. Last time I had a play with it
was back when CU-Amiga had that erm.. MIDI box type thingy.. erm.. its
names slips my mind now.. YamahaXG chipset it was based on though wasnt it?
Does this mean that the Soundcard has all the MIDI stuff built into it? (if
so and it is supported, I can see myself digging some midi stuff out!)
> joystick port :-)
This is a good point. I have thought about this also. I guess this depends
on software support though also. Games like Payback and that kind of thing
would maybe have a update for it.. anyway, not that it matters too much
since I can use the CD32 pad or a PSX one (via the adaptor)
