Do you know if the CDPC's sound card (which I hear will be released as a separate product pretty soon) supports MIDI playback at anything beyond the FM-Synthesis technology in their other cards? The 16-bit/44.1 khz digitized sounds are going to create very large files, and I don't think anybody is going to be real happy with the delays caused when trying to load these files wHile running a script for a multimedia presentation (not to mention the storage problems). The 16 bit technology is a big improvement. I'd still recommend looking at Turtle Beach's MultiSound 16-bit card. They do a much better job of supporting MIDI. Ggg
