Gary, I've looked into this a bit and I have come to the conclusion that sound and animation (fli's + flic's) cannot be played back in precise synch with any existing audio cards and/or software. Be advised that many dealers and even manufacturers will tell that their boards/software will synch up but they are wrong. If you just need approximate synch (maybe +/- 5 frames or so), the MicroKey audio card and "Splice" software would probably work. (512-346-5781). I believe the only current reliable method is to get your animation on video tape and edit in the audio with conventional video tape editing equipment. If anyone knows how a better way, please let us know. Alec Jason
