Visualisation Plug-Ins for AMPlifier
------------------------------------

Everybody who was asking why to take a Melody1200
with DSP if there is a 060 or PowerPC in the 
machine should again become more silent now!

AMPlifier got a powerfull Plug-In interface for 
talking to external programms to perform 
nice-to-see analyses of sound. This kind of 
stuff is known from PC Player WinAMP.

As we even want YOU to do the Plug-Ins, the code 
for one nice Plug-In is available. It was spend 
maximum energy to make Plug-Ins as easy as possible 
to do without limiting their power. 

The Plug-Ins are external programms or even 
applications which are docking to a reentrant 
cappable library activated by AMPlifier.
Reentrant means it's possible to start 
an unlimited number of effects if the CPU is 
fast enough!

If Melody1200 PRO or Plus is used, all the power 
of the machine may be spend for rendering 
hungry Plug-Ins. If the boards are used, 
AMPlifier makes use of their feature to readback
digital decoded MPEGs as RAW data to prevent 
delays.

When having a look at PC it's allready known some
Plug-Ins are like Plasma-Demos and are eating tons
of CPU-Power. The premium machine for Plug-Ins
currently is PowerUP/BVision/Melody1200PRO 
based A1200! Next you'll even be able to use
Melody1200 at a Zorro-Machine, too.
