============================
NEXTSTEP Audio Driver released for ENSONIQ Soundscape multimedia sound cards
BELLEVUE, WA- March 17 - Sound Consulting is shipping Release 3.30
of the EnsoniqSoundscape Audio Driver. This is the only NEXTSTEP
solution providing support for both Audio and MIDI features on one
Intel adaptor board. Compatibility with the currently shipping
MusicKit MidiDriver enables Intel machines running NEXTSTEP to
allocate a single ISA or EISA slot to the combined functions of
Audio and MIDI. The Soundscape is the only shipping hardware
solution which meets or exceeds the quality of the Microsoft Windows
Sound System card that is no longer being produced, an important
factor for performance under NEXTSTEP.
More information on the Soundscape line of multimedia sound cards,
featuring 16-bit stereo I/O and on-board General MIDI Synthesis,
can be obtained from ENSONIQ Corporation at http://www.ensoniq.com/
The currently shipping version of the EnsoniqSoundscape driver is
designed to work with the jumpered I/O versions of the ENSONIQ
Soundscape and its compatible cards from third-party manufacturers
such as NEC who use the ENSONIQ chipsets. Plug-and-Play support
is under development and will be shipping soon. Installation and
configuration are made simple by a full-featured custom interface
for the Configure application, with driver-specific online help.
The driver has hooks to support a mixer application for managing
the hardware's on-board ten channel stereo mixer.
For pricing and ordering information, please contact ENSONIQ@Sounds.wa.com
EnsoniqSoundscape requires NEXTSTEP Release 3.3 or higher on
Intel-based computers (486 or Pentium).
