Folks:
I currently have a real old DJ controller board and am looking
at replacing it (it's terribly slow as much of the control functions
are done in software). I've heard good things about the DJ2D, but
I am worried that it too suffers from "software-itis" (using
software where hardware is more appropriate). Are my fears justified?
What kind of performance does this board provide? Are there any
restrictions (such as not having any other DMA devices on the bus)?
Thanks.
