- Ok, ok. The SBPro has 22 mono voices or 11 stereo voices. IF a game
- supports the SBPro with 22 mono voices, do you think SBOS would support
- that? I think not. SBOS is made to use 11 voices. Since the GUS IS
- stereo, those voices can be put anywhere (randomly?). SBOS _is not_ SBPro
- compatible but its emulation _sounds like_ the SBPro. If you choose SBPro
- in your game setup, it won't work. See? SBOS _sounds_ like the SBPro but
- doesn't support it.
-
- SBOS != SOUND BLASTER PRO.
