- Welcome to the SoundBlaster 8/16 Version 2.01 driver!
-
- I've added support for SoundBlaster16. It's now possible to play 16bit
- sounds. Supports now NX_SoundStreamDataEncoding_Linear16 !!
-
- The driver is now avaiable in binary format for everybody !
-
- Since Creative Labs is NOT interrested in supporting NeXTStep (We've asked
- them to add the driver to the support drivers for the SB... and they did
- say "no market" ! ;-(( ), and since not much people registred the driver,
- I deceided to give it out FREE !
-
- So, it is the full version ! Without restrictions !!
-
- I don't know yet how to record on a SoundBlaster16. The driver does
- NOT SUPPORT RECORDING on a SoundBlaster16 ! If you try it, you will record
- garbage ... ;-(
