   Does anyone have any experience with analog to digital conversion on
the Amiga?  I'd like to set up a fairly generic unit which would accept a
changing-voltage signal (e.g. the output of an audio amplifier) and
generate 1 or 1-1/2 byte samples to be fed into either the parallel or
serial port.  I imagine being able to set a scaling factor (to allow for
different ranges of input signals) and the sampling rate.
   Intuitively it seems to me this should be a fairly simple thing to
assemble with off-the-shelf parts, but I don't really know a damn thing
about hardware...
   I'd really appreciate suggestions about
1. how to build such a device,
2. where to look for information on how to build such a device,
3. where to buy such a device, ready-made, or
4. why this is an impossible task and I should forget about it
   Thanks much
