I found AWEAmp -- a plugin for Winamp that does some low-level work with the AWE64 cards. I boosted up the buffer on its settings and now my music is as smooth as butter.

What exactly 2 plugins are you using?

I'd also like to operate Winamp over the network, and I have a AWE64.

If you stream the MP3's from another computer on the network, then that might cause an occasional skip. . . but it sounds like you fixed it.

I'm using Webamp... for the remote web control. You can customize the design of it a bit too

And I'm using AWEAmp for native AWE64 playback. It can be found on this page...

My MP3s are stored on a local HD.

I'm using the box as a file server too.

		Thanks a ton!! both of these plugins kick ass!! I'm still playin with the AWE plugin, and all of the fun chorus and reverb tweaks. I wish I could get these cool effects real-time with the microphone. I could really freak out the dog.

yeah some of those effects are pretty cool

didnt get to play with all of them yet, but I thought the far-away one was neat
