INTRODUCTION
Congratulations! You have purchased a Jaton PCI
Sound Card that will bring you endless enjoyment
in playing SoundBlaster games, computer music,
and many more features! With this Sound Card
you will experience the latest audio technology…..
so get ready to be impressed!
SonicWave-SR sound card is an advanced audio
controller for the PCI Bus. FortéMedia (chipset
maker), a leader in the PC Multimedia industry,
developed the FM801 technology. It is
compatible with Microsoft Windows, Microsoft
DirectX and Thousands of DOS games. Legacy
Audio block supports AdLib Music Synthesizer,
Sound Blaster Pro, MPU401 UART mode and
Joystick function in order to provide highest
hardware compatibility for numerous PC games on
real DOS environment.
SonicWave-SR PCI Sound card contains the result
of many years of experience in PC games, sound
and communication development. The sound can
be created with FM or wave-table synthesis and
held to a professional performance standard. Each
sound in the wave-table is derived from real
instrument sounds that have been carefully pro-
duced for inclusion in FortéMedia's extensive
sound library.
Why PCI Sound Card?
The PCI bus is far superior to the ISA bus. It is capable of
transferring data on a wider 32-bit bandwidth bus. This
SonicWave - SR User’s Guide
Version 4.0

allows much more data to pass from the PCI bus to the
host processor. The ISA bus is only capable of 16-bit
bandwidth transfers. Using the PCI bus will allow up to a
20 times increase in speed over much slower DMA
transfers on the ISA bus. This drastically reduces the
overhead on the host CPU. This tremendous processing
power opens up new possibilities for sound cards. Real-
time software based sound fields are now possible without
bogging down the host CPU.

• PCI 2.1 Compliant
• Soft MPEG-II Support
