Um yeah, speaking from the point of view of someone who makes Game music, and is trying to make a career out of it. SB's, AWE included (though I havn't heard the "64") sound like crap ""Best Sound Card"?" ? um sure for dos games but not for sound quality or for quality of the Synth sound, right now the best sounding card (if you can find one), would be one of Rolands SCDB's or SCC1. A close runner up (and in some ways better) Card would be Yamaha'a XG's Think of them as the 3dfx (3d card) of sound cards to the SB's Mystique and you wouldn't be far off. CL Labs has a nice (but somewhat crippled) little standard going Win95 games make that standard far less important. some people are willing to give up a little trouble to have better sounding (Midi) music and cleaner Audio. > -- > Saam Tariverdi > sa...@icode.com > http://www.icode.com/shock > (My Unofficial System Shock Page) > > Simon Juncal <s^jun...@erols.com> wrote in article > <33170F...@erols.com>... > > Saam Tariverdi wrote: > > > > > > ESS sucks.
