The answer to the question "Will the card accept direct digital inputs from
CD players?" is a qualified YES. It would be nearly impossible to guarantee
that every variation on the "standard" inputs will be available immediately
on release of the card to market; the implementation we will have is the most
extensive currently available on ANY platform. There should be custom cables
available for most interconnections, both analog and optical. Note that the 
ability to support only two of the four major formats costs an additional 
$995 retail to Mac and Atari Sound Accelerator and Audiomedia users, while
we will have all four supported directly onboard at no additional cost.

Our card, with 2 channel 16 bit analog inputs and outputs, DSP,
record-to-disk capabilities, digital inputs and outputs, MIDI ins/outs, and
SMPTE in will cost approx. $1500-2000 US. It will include bundled software
by SunRize Industries.
