RH>Hello all!
RH>Recently I realized the programming of the Digital Sound Processor

RH>longer (it has many disadvantages); and this is my question:
What are the disadvantages you refer to?
RH>Are there any other methods to realize data transfer from/to the DSP
RH>of SoundBlaster Pro 2+, maybe 3+ cards? What are the DPS commands to do
RH>this?
Either the card directly grabbs the data, or it is spoon fed by the
CPU. That kind of overhead is what led to DMA in the first place.
