The Turtle Beach MultiSound Tahiti is a professional-quality combination
digital audio and MIDI interface card for the IBM-PC/AT and its Industry
Standard Architecture ("ISA") peripheral bus.
The digital audio section of the card uses the Motorola 56001 Digital Signal
Processor ("DSP") chip, which is capable of internal processing in 56-bit
resolution, with 24-bit input and output of audio data. This high-resolution
internal processing capability is one of the main reasons why the Turtle
Beach MultiSound series of sound cards sound so much better than their
competitors. The Tahiti boasts high quality, 18-bit Crystal Semiconductors
digital audio converters.
The Tahiti includes an internal, bi-directional MIDI daughtercard header
for attaching the Turtle Beach Rio sampling synthesizer (or any other
WaveBlaster compatible MIDI daughtercard synth).
The Tahiti also has a 9 pin MIDI connector that can be used with an advanced
MIDI interface with MIDI IN, MIDI OUT and MIDI THRU female connectors for
hookup to external synthesizers and MIDI controllers.
The MultiSound Tahiti was introduced in 1994 and went out of production
in late 1996.
