Normally I wouldn't mention this, but since the subject is "Perfectsound"... WARNING!! Virtually *no* freely redistributable utilities such as SuperEcho work with PerfectSound III! PS3 has software gain control and rather than defaulting to a reasonable level, it simply doesn't work with software not specifically coded to use the gain control feature! On the bright side, there are several audio programs that do lots of neat things including realtime EQ and effects with PS3, but they're commercial: AudioMaster III does it, I think, and whoever makes PerfectSound has a really nice one as well. They generally go for $80 or so and are probably a better idea if you're serious about using the Amiga as an 8-bit sampler. If you're just messing around though, I'd recommend going for one of the other samplers (the Audiomaster people - Oxxi is it? - are making one now I think) and a PD program like SuperEcho.
