"24 channel 16-bit... really? Mind telling me how? I kept running out of channels in Protracker and faintly remember trying out Oktalyzer (?) and OctaMED (double-?), but they sounded awful even at 6 channels IIRC. Just not the same punch and clarity." the you had a crappy non expanded A500 :P i can use on my 68040/25mhz Amiga more channels in a tracker to use at same time then i need! everything is nicely on 16 bit 44.1 Khz rendered when i output to a wave file. paula can give you 14bit @56Khz sound as a max setting. sb128 sounds crappy compared to paula, so did all the early sb cards sound next to paula. "That was one nice way to get PC users to shut up, playing their 24 channel 16-bit XM music on a bog-standard A500...." if he could do that on an A500 i would be impressed! coz it ain't possible! A500 has same paula sound chip wich ALL classic Amiga's have! and 7.14 Mhz with 512kb or 1 MEG is a bit to little to play 16 bit 24 channel xm mods
