Valid settings for the DMA channel are 0, 1, 2, 3, 5, 6, and 7. Valid settings
for the interrupt are 2, 3, 5, 7, 10, 11, 12, and 15. The Pro Audio Spectrum 16
includes a Sound Blaster compatibility mode which is automatically set to DMA

can be shared with the Sound Blaster compatibility mode, but it is not possible
to share the same interrupt setting.
