>>How does the sound maniuplation compare with Tocatta vs. Flyer sound chip?<< I believe the sound capabilities of the Flyer *hardware* are excellent. AFAIK, they are not utilized at all yet. The Tocatta can play back mono or stereo at different sampling rates, but anything else requires rendering–including FADES! Also, it cannot play back more than 2 tracks (if stereo) at once, so even experiments with transitions have to be rendered. MAJOR TEDIUM!!! So as I mentioned before, I've kept my Ad516, and swap it into my A3k to use for later in production. Paul
