PAMELA offers * fully compatible to PAULA * 8 hardware AUDIO channel * support for 8bit and 16bit samples * high quality sample rates like 44 kHz / 48 kHz / 56 khz on any Screenmode (also 15Khz) * full DMA support, HW Mixing. * DMA can all access Vampire memory (up to 128 MB for samples!) Basically PAMELA offers the AUDIO features of the never released A-A-A AMIGA Chipset.

| Wow! Great job Gunnar and team! Paula compatibility with the enhanced features is excellent :). IIRC I think Mary had up to 100 kHz sample rate, although I'm not sure what that buys.. 56 kHz at least means high quality STE samples would work effortlessly (I think they were either 56khz or 50066 hz or similar)

Will sound from Pamela go through hdmi or normal stereo phono ports?

| The stereo audio ports are connected to Paula. PAM will go out through DIGITAL-VIDEO on Vampire cards. On the standalone board there could be an analog output in addition to the DIGITAL-VIDEO of course. But let´s wait for the release of the standalone, then we will see.

| I can speak only for my setup. I use an ASUS VK246H monitor with DIGITAL-VIDEO. This monitor has analog audio out connected to my Telefunken Hifi Studio HP 800 from 1985. As far as I have seen mostly all DIGITAL-VIDEO TV/monitors have an analog output (headset out).

| David - there are also DIGITAL-VIDEO splitters that allow you to pull the audio. There are all kinds of them on eBay for cheap ($10 or less).

| Noticed this; http://eab.abime.net/showthread.php?p=1166382#post1166382 This is my fixed version: EXTERNAL LINK it requires premake4 to create the makefile. I'm not done with optimizations, so currently it only runs at a decent speed in UAE-JIT 040. Just fyi. Browsing files inside milkytracker doesn't work either, so you have to load files from commandline. So it's far from usable at this point. My plan is to "remove" SDL and add in CGX RTG support instead and go straight for AHI myself, in hopes for getting some improvements by removing overhead. I'd like it to at least run on a Vampire accelerated Amiga in a foreseeable future.

That's me. And I've spoken about this with the team in IRC as well. :)

| Very cool! Of course as with all audio gear the better gear is definitely revealing the limitations of the source material. Do any of the mod formats support 16-bit (or higher) samples? Does EaglePlayer play these?

Should you (by some weird coincidence) own a DIGITAL-VIDEO capable monitor without Sound output, you could always get a DIGITAL-VIDEO to DIGITAL-VIDEO +Audio extractor like this one... EXTERNAL LINK Edit, hm lolz why is H.D.M.I. automagically translated to DIGITAL-VIDEO in the post?
