Sound</h2>
<hr size="4">
<h3>Sound:</h3>
<p>AppleWin emulates both the internal speaker (using the PC speaker or sound card)
and also the Mockingboard sound card (using a PC sound card).</p>
<p>Use the AppleWin Configuration tab labelled <em>Sound</em>.</p>
<p>If you are using a sound card, then use at least DirectX-9.</p>
<h4>Speaker:</h4>
<p>You can select PC speaker or sound card:</p>
<ul>
<li>
PC speaker: This is not recommended as the quality is poor. It is not usable on
Windows 2000 or XP.
<li>
Sound card: Recommended</li>
</ul>
<h4>Mockingboard:</h4>
<p>When the Mockingboards are enabled, the cards are physically plugged into slots
4 and 5 of the Apple //e.</p>
<p>Each Mockingboard is a type 'C': 2x AY8910 (3-channel sound generator) &amp; 1x
SSI263 (speech chip)<font face="Tahoma"><br>
</font>Each AY8910 is fully emulated (tone, noise &amp; envelope).<font face="Tahoma"><br>
</font>Each SY6522 (that controls an AY8910) can generate precise timer
interrupts or phoneme-complete interrupts.<font face="Tahoma"><br>
</font>Emulation of the SSI263 is basic at the moment and only plays back
phonemes at a fixed rate without any support for inflection or filters.<font face="Tahoma"><br>
</font>Additionally the Votrax/SC-01 (predecessor to the SSI263) is emulated by
remapping Votrax phonemes to the SSI263's.</p>
<H4>Phasor:</H4>
<P>When Phasor is enabled, the card is phyically plugged into slot 4 of the Apple
//e.</P>
<P>Phasor is equivalent to 2 Mockingboards: so has 4x AY8910 &amp; 1x SSI263.</P>
<P>&nbsp;</P>
<P>There are a number of games and demos that support Mockingboard (or Phasor), eg:</P>
<ul>
<li>

<li>
