    The SB0020 (which appears to be a Soundblaster Live! based on a emu10k1) should be compatible, assuming it works.
    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sound_blaster#Sound_Blaster_Live.21

    The SB0410 (being a Soundblaster Live! 24-bit based on a CA-0106) will not work.
    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sound_Blaster_Audigy#Sound_Blaster_Live.21_24-bit

    Basically any emu10k1, emu10k2 (CA-0100) or emu10k2.5 (CA-0102) based audio card should work.
    The wikipedia links above are pretty good for checking individual model numbers.

    A few envy24HT based cards also work, although I've not personally tested them in a Powermac.

    Not compatible as boot_wb has outlined.

    > also tried a SB0020

    Are you sure this isn't SB0200?

    Yes, it actually says SB0200..but the chip does say EMU10K1X on it. Are these automatically recognized by MorphOS? If so but it doesnt show up that means the card doesnt work?

    I recommend to read the last 3 of the 5 links I gave you there:

    https://morph.zone/modules/newbb_plus/viewtopic.php?topic_id=9205&forum=11&start=1

    This should make things clearer for you with regard to the SB0200 model with EMU10K1X chip.

    I had good luck on SB cards working on my MDD. Even was given a Dell SB live which worked great. Not sure if it was luck of the draw or if it was one Dell OEM card that happened to work. Could try putting the card in another PCI port just to be sure it is getting recognized in the Sound preferences.

    Either way, good luck!

    I picked up a CT4830 Sound Blaster Live PCI card..booting up to MorphOS on DVD, recognizes the card but still no sound.

    I selected Emu10k, in Sound I set to all AHI units, but sample sound plays nothing and loading a game, for example like Chromium, sound still plays thru the built in speaker.

    ok, with the help of user "hak" on #MorphOS IRC, I had to set the "Music Unit" 0 to be emu10k and now audio works. Close this one out. :-)
