How many of the 60 keys do you use in a piece of music? It's not twelve-tone music, is it? :o)

| @Szyk Cech Blizzard 2060@50khz with 128MB ram, I never thought that I would ever be replacing this board with something better...The blizzard board runs out of steam if you try to do too much and use a RTG card... the best thing about Vampire expansion is all of the bandwidth hogging devices have been moved away from the zorro slots...the cpu,saga,ram and i/o on the same board is the best design...@Nixus Minimax I'm usually hitting chords on the pentatonic scale, thats 5 notes per octave...some tracks may cross over to about 3 1/2 octaves, for the notes that i'm not using I would pull those samples out in order to free up some memory... dont get me wrong 128MB is a lot ram (classic Amiga), but with this new cpu core and faster memory interface Amigans may try to push classic hardware harder than normal....Look at Aros68k, i believe Gunnar had to double Vampires ram size from 64MB cause Aros68k needed more ram.... (ok, people can scream at me now..lmao)...

Hi Amiga 4Life,You're clearly a person that "pushes the envelope" with what you want to do on an AMIGA computer... I APPLAUD YOU! So, get the standalone, as you require what it has to offer.

| @Amiga 4Life You should also be aware that they planing implement 16bit audio via DIGITAL-VIDEO port...

| Hi Simo.... EXCELLENT, so the boot-up time on an Amiga 2000 is 24 seconds.... However, that is including waiting to establish proper communications with the Amiga 2000 motherboard that runs at only 7 MHz. The standalone Apollo Core'd AMIGA should be about 3 times faster, booting in about 8 seconds and maybe an extra 2, those needed to check the 1 gigabyte of RAM that's installed on it??? (Tablets FRAUDULENTLY are "instant on"... They start right away only because they are in SLEEP MODE!!! It takes them longer to turn off than the Amiga will turn on in!)

This is just a test to show that old SCSI controllers work fine with Vampire. If you want fast boot then better use a modern CF. The on board IDE on the V500 is 4 times faster than the old SCSI-Z2 controller.

AFAIK: Amiga custom/specialised chips run only 3.5MHz. 7MHz runs only CPU... Sadly 3.5MHz is true even for AGA... (CPU is faster of course for AGA machines)

Maybe due to "dual channel"?!? Or DDR?!? BTW: m == mili == 10^-3, b == bit, M == 2^20, B == byte, so: What do you mean?

Let me be more specific, when you click on the link to download the non FPU Binary only on EXTERNAL LINK Then it points to EXTERNAL LINK
