Hi Tony

You can buy RiTTY from K6STI, bb at n2.net
it costs 100 dollar.

RiTTY works only on ISA sound boards and
not all of them , they have to be SB-16 compatible
enough, all Creative are, I don't know Turlte Beach.

RiTTY needs full control of the sound board so it
doesn't work under all OS. I know it works fine in DOS,
Win3.x, Win95 and Win98. You can even run it without a HD
directly from a floppy containing RiTTY and system files only.

RiTTY is the BEST decoder and I use it since many years.

If your computer doesn't match the demands, use MMTTY it
works pretty good too.
