The ASP chip needed to be directly programmed for or it did absolutely nothing. The chip was quite unpopular, mainly due to the near-complete lack of industry support. This chip added some special functionality to SB16, such as speech synthesis through the TextAssist software, QSound audio spatialization technology on wave playback, and special general audio compression and decompression. The Sound Blaster 16 had a socket for an optional digital signal processor dubbed the Advanced Signal Processor ( ASP or later CSP). The Wave Blaster was simply a MIDI peripheral internally connected to the MIDI port, so any PC sequencer software could use it. Finally, the MIDI support now included MPU-401 emulation (in dumb UART mode only, but this was sufficient for most MIDI applications). Creative offered such daughterboards in their Wave Blaster line. The cards also featured a connector for add-on daughterboards with wavetable synthesis (actually, sample-based synthesis) capabilities complying to the General MIDI standard. They also, like the older Sound Blasters, natively supported FM synthesis through a Yamaha OPL-3 chip.

one for your speakers to plug into one for your mic to plug into and one for you to plug into an inbound sound source **** as an MP3 player. The CT5803 is a Creative card that was made by Creative Labs for Dell, it typically has 3 jacks. a 6.1 system card may have a side speaker out jack also. One for center speaker then one for front and one for rear. Some compatible or Creative Labs emulator cards have five pin outs, these are for a more sophisticated sound system like 5.1 or higher. You may have to set up the device or software settings that you are using before it properly gets the sound to go through your speakers. The line out is used for your computer speakers, plug in the green colored jack from your speaker into the line out jack and you hear whatever your playing on your computer, ie: music TV or internet broadcasts. 16 bit sound cards usually have 3 pin out or jack on the card, one is line in, one is line out and one is for the mic.
