'>> Has anybody some informations and/or sources to access the basic
'>> functions (volume, bass, treble.....) of a soundblaster card ?

'I wrote this to go along with some code posted by John Woodgate that
'played a CD.  This will control the mixer.  You can use it by starting
'something, like a CD, midi or wave player, then run this sub and it
'will control the audio mixer.

'I just checked to make sure that it stlll works under win95.  John's
'CD code doesn't work under 95 since it wants MSCDEX loaded. (Haven't
'tried to see if MSCDEX would load under win95)

'To go much further with this, your program has to be mixer chip specific.
'The treble, base and other functions use different registers on the
'different cards.  I've got the registers up to the sb16, CT1745 chip.
'I don't know if they would work with the Pro.  Maybe Andras has some
'later info on the registers.
