Dostalem z jednej z list dyskusyjnych poswieconych GUS-owi niniejszy
tekst dotyczacy chipu InterWave. Brzmi obiecujaco:

InterWave(TM) Audio Processor

AMDs new InterWave audio processor delivers incredible new dimensions
in PC audio. With InterWave, MIDI compositions and game tracks are replayed
through the PC precisely the way the composer intended. Cymbal crashes
are bright and brassy. An alto sax wails distant and mournful. The full,
mellow tones of a classical piano resonate like Steinways finest.
Machine-gun fire sprays with the percussive authority of a jackhammer
in your living room. InterWave is the perfect composition platform for
concert-quality music and the ultimate engine for running the Windows.
95 Games SDK.

The InterWave Audio Processor is a complete audio sound system on a chip,
fundamentally changing the cost of high performance wavetable audio for
