Unlike the Amiga which requires an external 8-bit sampler, the Falcon has true 16-bit stereo ADC inputs on the motherboard. The 14.2 Hz peak shows up as a bright white vertical line against the blue background noise. Requires 4MB ST-RAM and an RGB or VGA monitor. -- Julien Larsson Zyxel U-1496E @ 33,600 bps "They will send a copy in my place."

Too bad Atari marketing was so incompetent that nobody bought the Falcon before they pulled out of the computer market. -- Min-jun Fischer | mfischer@inria.fr PGP Key fingerprint: E86B 0FCE 9B53 48C1 "Keep the channels open."

The SSI to DSP56001 architecture on the Falcon is magnificent.
