Overview
This user’s guide provides information on how to install and config-
ure the Adaptec AMM-1570 and AMM-1572 SCSI Audio Host
Adapters. The AMM-1572 is identical to the AMM-1570 except that
it has an onboard floppy disk controller that supports up to two
floppy disk drives. In this user’s guide, the AMM-1570 and
AMM-1572 are referred to jointly as the AMM-1570/1572.
What is the AMM-1570/1572?
The AMM-1570/1572 provides full SCSI host adapter functionality
and superior audio performance for your SCSI and multimedia
devices. This is accomplished through the integration of two discrete
functional modules onto a single board: A SCSI module and an
audio module.
The AMM-1570/1572 SCSI module provides a powerful multitask-
ing interface between the ISA bus and the SCSI bus featuring 16-bit
transfer capability. Up to seven individually configured SCSI
devices can be connected to and supported simultaneously by the
AMM-1570/1572.
The AMM-1570/1572 audio module is based on a Digital Signal
Processor (DSP) that can off load many computer intensive audio
and video processing tasks from the host adapter. Through the input
and output jacks, a variety of audio equipment can be connected to
the AMM-1570/1572. The audio module provides
■ Digital audio recording and playback with compression
■ Audio synthesis
■ Musical Instrument Digital Interface (MIDI) recording and
playback
■ Joystick game port interface
