Hi Dave,

Yes, I have two sound cards on my machine.  I have an Ensoniq 32 and a PCI
128, both from Creative.  I have searched far and wide to try to find
information on how to do this "the right way" but I don't think there is a
"Right Way".

I installed one of the cards with its control software-no problems.

I installed the second card but I cannot configure it.  There is a problem
with the "Audio LegacyPCI Device" that is installed with the cards.  Windows
98 will not let me install two of these.  Well, I can install two but only
one is working.  I believe this is simply the control panel for the card
that the machine cannot install.  The card itself installs and works -if you
can figure out how to use it.

 BUT with WINAMP I can designate which card I use- way to go WINAMP!:
OPTIONS>PREFERENCES>AUDIOI/IO>CONFIGURE> Change from Wave Mapper (default)
to your PCI Audio card (Both should appear: PCI0 and PCI1).  Then when ECS
tells WINAMP to play the non-TTS card plays.  They work fine with no
problems together.

The problem I am having is:  I can't figure out how to get both control
panels.  I need this so I can enable the Line-OUT on my WINAMP sound card.
Right now only the speaker out is working.

I know it can be done more efficiently.....Hey maybe I will work on it some
more tonight.  I'll let you know if I find anything new.

Good Luck,  hope this helps.

Kevin

Anyone use multiple sound cards in their PC? I would like to have multiple
PC feeds of MP3 into an audio matrix switcher.

Thanks,
Dave
