Thank you! Is it with the possibility to load different sound fonts ?
Yes. It's much like a PCI version of the AWE, but...
And how much memory is available ? And do I need to
buy extendet
memory?
... it has no memory on board (or just a little bit). Instead it uses
your main memory, i.e. the RAM. This works fine and you might be able
to use really large soundfonts like the Natural Instruments set.
But although I have a SBLive, nowadays I just use iiwusynth /
fluidsynth. The pure software solution has proven to be more flexible
for my purposes, which include DSP-based destruction of the soundfont
generated sounds in Pd ;)
