I got two cards in a bundle with some other stuff but honestly I'm quite ignorant about ISA sound cards, so I'd need some help to understand what they are and what I can do with them
The first one is a Creative Sound Blaster AWE32 (CT3900) with two memory modules (2x 1MB I think) and a Roland SCB-7 MIDI Daughterboard
The second one is a Guillemot MAXI SOUND 64 (SC8600 V2.0) with a SIMM memory module (8MB I think)
So, I did a little bit of research and they seems to be some good mid 90s sound cards, but can someone expand a little bit on this?
Also, what is the Roland expansion card exactly good for? Is it a professional thing or also used in games?
Since my favorite "retro target period" is 1996-2006 (I know there is little bit of debate what can be called retro and what no, but anyways) I'm not sure if I can use these cards in any of my systems
Is there any reason to use one of those, instead of a SB Live!, in a Win98SE build?
Last question: should I decide to sell them, what should be a fair target price?
