So slowly building my DOS retro machine, and am now at a cross roads for sound card configuration. I have a Sound Blaster 32 (CT3600) which I would really like to use, and also have a CMI8330-based card (SB Pro compatible clone). Neither have perfect OPL-3 clones but the CMI8330 does not have the infamous hanging note bug that the CT3600 does.
I'm thinking of having both installed and enabled in the computer simultaneously and kind of get the best of both (imperfect) worlds. My initial thought is to have the line out of the CMI8830 patched to the line input of the CT3600. What are your folks' thoughts on this configuration, and recommendations for IRQ/address/dma settings these two cards to allow games to take advantage of these cards appropriately (i.e. CMI8330 for SB Pro, CT3600 for SB16/SB32/AWE32)?
