    I've used the HyperStudio microphone with my Sonic Blaster successfully 
many times in the past.  It's your basic, no-frills, unpowered mike which 
probably costs less than $10.  I assume you are using the Sonic Blaster 
software and not something like Sound Shop...

    I haven't seen any Psygnosis games yet, but they write a lot of stuff 
for the Amiga, don't they?  I won't write a letter to a game company begging 
them to support the GS if I don't even know what their stuff is like.  I'll 
take your word that they put out some fabulous games, but I need some 
first-hand experience.  You can't write intelligent letters unless you know 
what you're talking about...
