C) Files in this package.
This developer information package allows you to develop your own
applications/drivers that will fully tap the capabilities of the SB AWE32.
You will get a set full featured libraries based on MIDI messages, and a
suite of APIs that allow you to exploit the possibilities of downloading
sound samples using with the on-board DRAM.
This documentation is divided into four parts dealing with programming
the SB AWE32 under DOS (both real and protected mode), and under Windows.
You will also learn how to control the EMU8000 chip onboard the SB AWE32
via MIDI non registered parameter number. And the last part, the newly
added Audio Spatialization API.
There are 6 files included in this package:
