Yeah, Deck was a hammer! I remember we realised several multitrack projects at my 6100/60 with 16MB Ram. And when I became my G3 Upgrade and 136MB Ram, we even did a filmproject. Importing the whole PAL film as SVHS with the 2 MB graphic card to Deck, and did all the dubbing where the original tone was not usable. We had running the film inside Deck plus up to 8 tracks without any problems.

But the hardest thing in this direction is my MegaST with an Digidesign soundcard for MegaBUS. This one had a 16MHZ 56001 DSP and a adapted Sounddesigner II software. So the 4MB/8MHZ Atari is able to run SDII without problems and for example realtime scrubbing (foreward and backward) at two tracks. This all in 16BIT 48KHZ - in the year 1988!
