The best audio card I ever used is by far the Delfina Lite.

Hardware mp3 decoding and paula audio mixing really sounds like paradise :-P

I bought it in december 2000 and still enjoy it very much :)

It's a pity that so few applications and games take adavantage from the DSP chip :-(

I agree about the Delfina Lite. It's a pain so set up correctly but once you have it's excellent!



why do you say that it's a pain to setup?
I had no problem on my amiga 4000 :)

I had none of these problems, maybe because I use the delfinampeg.device with Amplifier (amigaOS 3.9) and it's perfect.

When i bought the delfina lite thjere was no overclocking utility so to boost performance I had to change the 4mhz oscillagtor with a 6 mhx one and it works better than great :)

the only problem is tha somtimes, after several hour of playing, Amplifier hang ups the whole system :-(

Still don't understand why, maybe it's because the overclock, I'm looking for a 5mhz quartz in order to downclock it :)

@Reflex

The overclock util is DelfTweak. Look for it on Aminet.

I use DelfInit instead of the initialisation tool that comes with the card. Also on Aminet.

I use the patch 2 version.


ah OK but if I have an hardware overclock maybe I don't need none of these, or maybe yes?

that source seems to say that replacing the original 4 mhz oscillator with a 6 mhz is still safe enough..

So I think I'll let him stay there, but maybe I'll play around with all these programs and patches you kindly suggested to me.  8-)
