The ZZ9000 is the best RTG card for any Zorro II big-box Amiga computer. A very powerful RTG card that is now getting sound too. Coming soon info by Lukas on Twitter. There he writes that the ZZ9000AX audio module with SigmaDSP® will soon be out.

Lukas also writes that the audio module is intended as an expansion for the ZZ9000 Amiga graphics/network card.

Look at what ZZ9000 offers for bigbox Zorro II Amigas!

Yes, you can even install to Amiga 500. To use ZZ9000 with Amiga 500, you need a Zorro II adapter like Rob Cranley’s Z-500 or the Checkmate 1500 Zorro adapter.

The Audio Module will be a remarkable addon for this card. Paula is awesome, but this with a DSP will give lots of musicians great tools. The future is looking bright for bigbox Amigas too. This is Positive Amiga Circle. Supporting all sides of the Amiga universe is important. Always! Hot Amiga News that is worthy waiting for!
