It's noisy, (not in good sound either) the cable that connects the back panel board to the computer is too short(THis is used for grounding purposes too). A friend of mine who built his own pre-amp(from the SONIX plans) has done much better sound than I have been able to do with the Sonic Blaster. AE will either be getting mine back or if they can send me one that works better, I would sorrily suggest that you (or anyone else) not purchase this board. Even when used with Skate or Die (Zany Golf was just too HORRID!) there is a TON of backround noise. It might be my card, I'll post another message after I talk to those guys @ AE. ps. I too would like to hear from those of you that have the Transwarp GS (or will be getting it). Just how fast is "about 7mhz."? dtroup@carroll1.UUCP Artificial Intelligence @ Carroll College, Waukesha Wi. 414-524-6826 voice pss. Anyone else (besides me) have AST's video digitizer? I need the new version of the software, and Im looking for someone who has written some of their own wares for it(Im looking AI Vision applications).
