They are modifying the program to run under Win95 and use standard calls, mainly because the new PCS S/B cards are not documented in terms of direct calls. Except for this, different sound cards seem to perform similarly under Spectrogram. I have experience with two different SB16, one older and one newer, and a compatible one, unknown brand. All work fine. I'm currently using a 266 MHz Celeron for this application. 73 - Marco IK1ODO
