DESCRIPTION

This tool is capable of converting AIFF files, whether 8 or 16-bit, mono or stereo to the file format that Studio 16 3.x uses. AIFF 8-bit files are automatically converted to 16-bit size. Mono files are converted to be PAN'ed in center. A stereo AIFF file will produce two Studio 16 files which are PAN'ed to left and right accordingly. The files also get their own extensions.

Since the Sunrize company went down a few years ago there has been very little development for the Sunrize audio cards (I only know of about one program (commercial) that has beeb developed afterwards that can handle Studio 16 files).

To get information about the Studio 16 fileformat get the package off any Aminet site, eg.
ftp://ftp.doc.ic.ac.uk/aminet/dev/misc/Studio16frm.lha
