This table represents the maximum sampling-rates that can be achieved with Technosound Turbo 2 Pro on a 68000 and 68020 CPU (the A500 uses a 68000 and A1200 the 68020). The 12-bit and 8-bit speeds are those attainable with the 12-bit cartridge running in 12- and 8-bit, while the remaining speeds are for the 8-bit cartridge.

The faster the sample-rate, the better the sound-quality will be. However, sounds sampled in 12-bit mode will be clearer than those of the same speed and greater in 8-bit mode.
