[ 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.
