Support for professional audio cards in OS4?
« on: December 25, 2002, 03:46:49 PM »
Just wondering how hard it would be to get the drivers from one/all of the following pro sound card manufacturers ( Digital Audio Labs,  Echo, Hoontech,  Midiman, ST Audio, Lynx Studios or/and  Terratech)?
Please feel free point out if I have missed a manufacturer,( I've intentionally left Creative Labs out).

Even though OS4.0 is not out yet I figured that thinking about thease things now would be an good idea as I asume that OS4.0 won't have support for these cards once it out anyway, and the Amiga is supposed to be a multimedia computer. What ever that  means.

My guess is that the Midi Man (the Lynx cards are the best preformance wise though) products would propably be the easiest to port given the fact that they seem most willing to share information, they are the only ones that I could find Linux drivers for?
And before someone asks yes my programming skills are limited, and thus I don't know how hard it would be to port the drivers.

And last but not least, would porting these drivers be realistic, at all???
