 [ The SoundBlaster AWE-32 is the sound board that George Bogatko
 [ is using.  I've found two sources of software development
 [ kits for the board.  One is a "formal" product and the other
 [ appears to be "shareware".
 [
 [ "Official" software developer's kit FAQ from Creative Labs:
 [
 [       http://www.creaf.com/wwwnew/tech/devcnr/adipfaq.html
 [
 [ Supports DOS and Windows development environments.

 [ Hope this helps.
