This has been asked about a few times already. That seller has had those cards for sale on ebay for a long time. If they were anything special, I'm sure the community would have bought them all up pretty quickly. That they haven't sold out after all this time says a lot.

Mmm... guess I've not been around here long enough to have seen anything on them. It's probably true... I might just toss the $30 into funding for a Roland SC-88 instead, though its always nice to have something else you can just stick in an ISA slot. 😀 I didn't realize they'd been up there for so long; I always check back on eBay every few days for anything interesting and sort it by 'Newly Listed' - looks like I just happened to hit it shortly after being relisted.

well although it may not be something special, it looks good and would actually meet my interest of collection, $20 is not a lot of money either. however its just not worthy the international shipping and bothering which is a lot more than the price. 😖

Well, I went ahead and ordered one - I agree... it's worth $20 to just for collection purposes. I've never even heard of half the chips on that thing. It sure is unique, that's for sure.

Should be here sometime in the coming week. I wish I could make out the markings on those memory chips to get a little better idea of what exactly this thing's going to be capable of. Being an off-brand wavetable synth from ~1993-94, I don't have high expectations, but we'll just have to see. Expect some recording samples sometime in the near future. 😀

Your're wrong, this card is nothing special and the chips are also very known!

Look on an "Orchid Soundwave 32" and realize, that it's the same...

But if you have bought one, I'm interested in the drivers, because the Orchid card didn't have some good ones for win95.
In general the drivers should be different, because the "setup guide" says nothing about MT-32 compatibility, like the Soundwave 32.
Perhaps the drivers can help the Soundwave 32 to sound better 🤣

(If the postage and taxes aren't that high, I had already bought one because of the drivers or the chance of a better soundwave 32 (I like the concept of the card))
