Now that we have a program that can play sounds directly from disk is it possible to make a program record directly to disk? Would take some fancy timing I know but is it possible? +--------------+-------------------------+----------------------------+ | Andy Kress | Univ. of Rhode Island | PYC121 AT URIACC.URI.EDU | +--------------+--------+----------------+----------------------------+ | No, it's not a Mac. | Apple II: The power to rule the world!!! | +-----------------------+---------------------------------------------+

It would be possible with a RamDISK or a RamFast and hard drive.

It would be rather pointless to record to a RAM disk... why not just nuke the RAM disk and use all available memory? Also, the RAMFast might be overqualified for the job. The Apple Rev. C (yeah, that non-DMA beast... ;-) ) should be able to handle it. There might be a problem with disk interrupts distorting the sounds, however... I'd like to see a player which will uncompress ACE files on-the-fly during playback. A 2.8-MHz GS is certainly capable of it.
