Sound
The sound system for the Power Macintosh G3 computers is
implemented entirely on the I/O cards. (There are two
versions available.) Each supports 16-bit stereo sound
output and input, available simultaneously.
The sound circuitry on the I/O card and system software can
create sounds digitally and either play the sounds through
speakers inside the enclosure or send the sound signals out
through the sound output jacks. The sound circuitry digitizes
and records sound as 16-bit samples. The computer can use
11.025K, or 22.050K, or 44.100K samples per second.
The sound system plays samples at the sampling rate
specified in the Monitors & Sound control panel.
