To test the DRAM upgrade

If you have mounted a memory upgrade module in step 4, you can test
it as follows:
1. Make sure that you have installed the audio software.
(The installation of the software is covered in the next two
chapters.)
2. Start the AWE Control Panel. That is, click the Start button,
point to Programs, point to the menu of your Sound Blaster
card, and then click AWE Control Panel.
3. Load SoundFont banks. That is, click the User tab, click the
Browse button to browse for the installed folder of the SoundFont
bank, select the file name, and then click the Apply button.
From the memory status bar, you can see the changes in the
amount of onboard memory available.
4. Play your SoundFont banks to make sure that your memory
upgrade module is working properly.
Refer to the online User's Guide for detailed information on how to
use the AWE Control Panel.

For better quality sound, use powered speakers even if your
card has an internal amplifier.
The joystick connector on your audio card is identical to
that on a standard PC game control adapter or game I/O
connector. You can connect any analog joystick with a
15-pin D-shell connector or any device that is compatible
with the standard PC joystick. To use two joysticks, you
need a Y-cable splitter.
