its the keynote gold synth on sound card. On that note tom, I suspect that stuff was released for win95 before all these new synths like realspeak came out. I never heard someone running it in anything higher than 95, no reason it shouldn't run on 95 98 and with the dos hack loaded win me. However it is not a nt bassed thing at least I think so. In fact a load of stuff was released in 95 to cope with the new multimedia things while people were transfering, things like y2k fix, orf mix32, etc. ANd most of these are not needed. At any rate with event of digital soundcards you have seperate input and output streams so it probably wouldn't work so well anyway.
