One little tip regarding the sound delays with the Mwave--if you need multimedia, try conecting at 14,400 BPS instead of 28.8. I have noticed that when I have done this, not only do I have no delay with WAV sounds, but I get MIDI as well. With 28.8 you get no MIDI due to the amount of free resources in the DSP chip. That brings me to a question. Wouldn't WAV files take up more resources than MIDI? If so, why is it MIDI and not WAV that can be played at 28.8? --Mike Eric Giles wrote: > > I have quietly complained about these problems for some time myself > (especially the delay with sounds in Windows).
