When I was at my parents house I found an at least fifteen year old (original) box containing my first ISA 8-bit soundcard which I bought from my neighbour for about 90 guilders, somewhere in 1993. It also came with two five watt mini-speakers (not on the photos). The first thing I did was play Wolfenstein 3D on my 80286 (12 MHz.), with sound. Very exciting at that time of course. For those of you interested in the very advanced specifications:
- Full Adlib, Sound Blaster, Covox Speech Thing and Disney Sound Source compatible
- 11 FM Music Synthesizer
- Digitized Audio Playback
- Analog Digital Recording
- Manual and Software Volume Control
- Configuration Setting via Software Control
- Dynamic Filtering
- Built-in MIDI-interface
- CD-ROM interface
- Built-in amplifier
- Microphone Automatic Gain Control Amplifier
- Game port
- Complies with Microsoft Multimedia Level I
- 6 Bundled Software
Great stuff.
Reminds me of my first pc. A 486 dx4-100Mhz.
Bought a Soundblaster 32 PCI sound card on it which was really amazing at that time.
It also had a turbo button to switch between 10 and 100Mhz. 😀
