Try Amigakit - they advertise them on their site:

www.amigakit.co.uk

I'm curious as to how this fits on an Amiga. Does it require a USB port? It's supposed to fit on an MMC expansion card for the Commodore 64.

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!

I needed the tweaked delfina.library for it function correctly. Also a different init tool for my s-s (and an optional overclock util); all of these programs were not in the original install. If you don't know this then you have some problems.

You can find topics on this board about the Delfina and the dreaded fake requestor.

Had those problems myself!

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 :)

With that overclocking utility you don't need to change any oscillator and you can choose any frequency you want.

I use the delfinampeg.device too but you could also try the patched lib; maybe that solves your freezes?

I have two delfina lite cards.  I can't get either one to work in my A4000 off the clockport on my kickflash.  They both work on my stock A1200 though, even with the original library!  I know the kickflash is ok because my Subway works on it.  I'm perplexed by the situation, tbth.

@stopthegop

You have probably Delfina Flipper cards not Lites; the Delfina Lite is a Zorro card.

@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.

The patched lib is here.

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?

Yeah, but you said you wanted to try to clock it lower; instead of a oscillator you can use this program to downclock it?

It would be best to use the original oscillator again and overclock the card using Delftweak according to this source.
