- In there, Sound Effects for Windows 1.0 rated as "one of the top
- 10 Windows programs". Now, considering the several thousand Windows
- programs out there, this is QUITE IMPRESSIVE.
-
- In fact, SoundEffects has over 4,000 downloads from CompuServe

- registered users.
-
- Thanks everybody for all your support!
-

-
- ==== Author's Comments ===============================================
-
- Sound Effects is the product of two year's work, many late
- nights, and even some days I called in sick for work just to work
- on the final product.
-
- The results of Sound Effects were amazing...
- Reviews coming in say:
-
- "We want to include your program on the cover!"
-
- -PC Windows Magazine
-
-
- "Rated as one of the TOP Windows Programs on CompuServe, 1993 review"
-
- -CompuServe Magazine
-
-
- "Would you have any objection to us using SOUNDFX4 on the Cover disk?"
-
- -PC Today Magazine
-
-
- "I'm a computer game designer for Sierra On-Line. I'm working on a
- new project right now and have need for a few PC sound effects."
-
- -Sierra
-
-
- Sound Effects was in the Compuserve "Preferred and suggested files"
- section (December 1991). In fact, every time CompuServe rates
- ANYTHING on IBMSYS, Sound Effects is nearly always included.
-
- =======================================================================
-
-
-
-
-
-
- 1) GETTING STARTED
-
-
- To include any of the TalCONs in your desktop:
-
- ■ Open the PROGRAM MANAGER
- ■ Choose FILE from the menu
- ■ Choose NEW
- ■ Choose PROGRAM ITEM
- ■ Type in the path and filename of your TalCON.
- For example: C:\WIN31\EXTRA\FALLEN.EXE
-
- ■ Now your TalCON will appear in the Program Manager's
- MAIN or ACCESSORIES Window.
-
- The TalCON will remain in that Window until removed.
-
-
-
-
-
-
-
-
-
-
-
-
- 2) WHAT'S A TalCON ?
-
- (talk - con)
-
- A TalCON is a sound-VOICE icon that is minimized on your desktop
- and remains minimized, permanently. Double-clicking one
- produces a brief VOICE, then returns control to Windows.
-
- You can then easily put a few of your favorite TalCONs
- scattered about your desktop, and show off your incredible
- ability to create cute sounds, or make yourself look bored.
-
- NOTE: TalCONs play through your default SOUND DRIVER. That could
- include a SoundBlaster Pro, Adlib 16, plus many others.
- If you don't have a sound board, please install the SPEAKER.DRV
- speaker driver that is included in this archive.
-
- To install the driver:
-
- 1) Load CONTROL PANEL
- 2) Click the DRIVERS icon
- 3) Click the ADD button
- 4) Now double click on the UNLISTED or UPDATED DRIVER
- 5) When you are asked for the path of the driver,
- type in the path+filename of SPEAKER.DRV
-
- 6) Click OK, then click OK again
- 7) Now you must re-start Windows for the driver to take
- effect. Once installed, the voices will now play through
- the speaker (may not work on all systems).
-
- Note that the quality is greatly reduced, but for a little
- speaker, what do you expect!?!?
-
-
-
-
-
-
-
-
-
-
