Does this require a 16-bit motherboard, or can it work on an 8-bit PC? I own the NuXT 8088 board from Monotech.

Like many other all-in-one audio chips of the time, this one only supports 8-bit data transfer. I doubt it has been tested, much less on your specific board, but in theory there shouldn't be any reason that it cannot work. Clearly, you would be unable to use the IRQ or DMA configurations that are only available via 16-bit slots, and you might be forced to use UNISOUND to initialise the card, as the official software may not run on such a machine. Also, I wouldn't expect such a system to be capable of higher sampling rates or sampling resolutions, so I'm not quite sure what use such a card would have in a system of that type. Do you have a specific application in mind?

Just got mine as well, what a beauty! <3 Thank you keropi and marmes for this Marvel 😀

Thanks for the support TrueMorph!
I hope the card serves you well 😀

a new review for the MK1869 by vswitchzero has landed: https://youtu.be/9bYEq0KIykg

There were some issues during shipping that I won't repeat here, but I wanted to mention that both Edro and Leo took good care of me and gave me plenty of confidence throughout the process. I've ordered several cards over the years and have always been happy with the results.

I did receive my order this past week and it was packaged beautifully. I would order again in the future without hesitation, despite the hiccup in shipping that I experienced this time. I know that they will work hard to make things right.

yeah that was quite the mix up that happened ...
thanks for the huge amount of patience Kahenraz , it is appreciated!

I still haven't tested the two cards I received - I never have a free moment to play with my own hardware. It's saddening every time I get notifications about new posts on this thread. I haven't even had time to use the Orpheus II cards from a year and a half ago!

Now with the (crop) growing season in full swing, I spend every free hour I have working them. Perhaps I can try the cards out in 4-6 months when autumn hits 😉
