Announcing the SOUNDBLASTER FREEDOM PROJECT The aim of the Soundblaster Freedom Project is to provide a cheap source of programming information for the Soundblaster and other sound cards. Previously, programming a sound card has required a not inconsiderable investment in a developer's kit for each sound card. These developer's kits have been known to be terse and not well written. Our aim is to provide enough information to the general programmer to allow them to add sound card support to their software at minimal cost. Currently I am collecting information on the Soundblaster and the Soundblaster Pro. Anybody who can supply sample code or hardware programming information is welcome to send mail to jeff@wench.ece.jcu.edu.au or cejjb@manta.jcu.edu.au Any other suggestions or comments can also be sent to the above address. I will attempt to collate the information and make it available for anonymous FTP. It can be found on Machine: oak.oakland.edu Directory: /pub/msdos/sound/sbf3.zip There has been much interest expressed in the project, both from programmers and people with hardware information. Please help to contribute and make this project work. Specific thanks to millerje jlee Heath Hunnicutt (for dma_code.asm) Chris Box for their contributions and suggestions. Jeff Bird
