Unzip the files or copy the files you need to your hard disk and refer to the text files incluede with the applications for instructions. Converting EPS disks to WAVE files: This isn't the easiest task, but it works well! 1) Extract and run the eps_disk program. 2) Extract an EPS instrument from a floppy disk as a generic file. 3) Extract and run the GOLDWAVE program (Windows) and import the file. You may have to adjust the parameters (like sample rate etc.) before you get quality results. 4) Save the file as a WAVE file. 5) Take two Aspirins and go to bed! PROBLEMS WITH ede.exe and/or yde.exe? The only reported problem has been a crash of the program. This is likely due to memory manager programs. In the unlikely event that the programs crash, try to disable your memory manager and run them again. If you experience further problems, please contact Giebler Enterprises.
