Hmmm... I own an AWE32, but I think that the GUS is the best... Not only
does it have Wave Table (Just the guitars in E1M1 make it worth having WT),
but it allows 16 simultaneous sounds (digital) with no degredation... The
agony of many guys dying simultaneously sounds cool...
I do have to say that with reverb turned all the way on, the music has a
fuller feeling on the AWE32, though...
