Music: ProStationAudio Millenium
September 2001: ProStationAudio Millenium, T8 and Remix compatible
with SoundBlaster PCI boards.
ProStationAudio is successfully working with Creative's SoundBlaster PCI
boards installed on Mediator busboards, under AmigaOS.
The software has just passed tests at an audio production
facility, under daily working conditions. The test setup
includes a Mediator PCI busboard, SoundBlaster 128 PCI, and
VooDoo graphic card for displaying the ultra-hi-res PSA GUI.
Mediator 1200 PCI busboard
Audio hardware is accessed via AHI, drivers for additional
Creative's models are due soon (SoundBlaster Live! to start
with) by the busboard makers.
Elbox, makers of Mediator, confirm also that the PCI busboard
supports installing two PCI graphic cards. ProStationAudio
can take advantage of two display cards (and two monitors)
for increased productivity. This feature, already supported
for Zorro graphic cards, is now available also for PCI
boards.
ProStationAudio is the reference audio editing/mastering
software for AmigaOS. With this new developemnt on PCI
hardware the range of supported hardware now includes:
- Draco
- Amiga with one or two CPU, up to two graphic cards, two
monitors and any AHI-compatible audio card or stock audio
chip. Graphic and audio cards can be on Zorro or PCI busses.
ProStationAudio supports also non-AHI pro cards such as the
SoundStagePro DSP and provides direct access to NewTek Flyer,
Sunrize Studio16 and Digidesign SD audio files, beside standard
Amiga, Apple, Windows and Unix audio files includig MP3.
Informations on other PCI busboard options, such as the G-Rex
specific for PPC accelerators owners, will be published as
soon as audio drivers will be released by hardware makers.
ProStationAudio is fully hardware independent and will work
with any audio board, PCI or Zorro, provided AHI drivers are
available from hardware vendors.

CD32 Games Install Kit v4.5 released
The CD32 Games Install Kit v4.5 was just released on
the Airsoft Softwair homepage (title link).
This is the first public version of the program since
version 3.9. Until now, versions 4.0 to 4.5 were only
available for owners of the The Best Of Airsoft Softwair
Gold Edition but now the InstallKit is available as
Shareware again. The demo version can be downloaded from
the Airsoft Softwair homepage.
Since version 3.9 many things have been changed:
For example there is now a MUI GUI, the stability of Install2001
was increased and much more games are supported now, for
example Simon the Sorcerer with talkie soundtrack. Also
the integrated emulator which runs games straight from
the CD was greatly improved. Additionally the InstallKit
can now be ordered by credit card through RegNet. And finally
there is now an own section on the Airsoft Softwair homepage
which covers information about the program (in the products section).

Spiegel: Q33NY
Like probably many others I have just received a private mail which
points out something truly macabre: if you open a new document in Microsoft
Word, enter the alleged flight number of one of the machines which were
steered into the World Trade Center, Q33NY, and set font 'Windings'
in size 48, something incredible could be seen. I have made some investigation
on the web and found an interesting German article by 'Spiegel online'
which you can read at the title link. The flight number Q33NY is wrong,
and it is no hidden message but black demagogy.

H&P: news about AmigaOS XL
Markus Nerding (H&P) wrote:
Discussion forums
19. Sept. 2001: with the beginning of this week we created two discussion forums
at Yahoogroups. First you have to register at Yahoogroups (groups.yahoo.com or groups.yahoo.de) and than subscribe to the
group. The subscribing is only possible via groups.yahoo.com (just enter there
amigaxl or amithlon in the search field) because the national access doesn't know
these groups. A real stupid error of Yahoogroups.
Important hint: we recommend to discuss all questions in the group amigaxl as
most of the people certainly can't know which emulator they'll use. More
comprehensive instructions will follow tomorrow.
The dealing with the questions runs at full speed.
19. Sept. 2001: We are right now dealing with the countless questions that were
asked. Using these we'll create further texts regarding the products
Amithlon/AmigaXL to make the advantages and limitations more apparent. Please
give us 1-2 days time for this ;-)
