The File Conversion Window is used to convert sound data files stored by
other music software manufacturers to the Sound Quest file format.
To create a conversion from scratch is a two part process and once the
conversion has been created it can be saved to disk for later use.
To make the conversion, select open from the 'Files' menu and select the
conversion file to be used. The conversion file should load the Sound Quest
driver along with a macro which performs the actual conversion. Once this
information is loaded, select 'Convert a File' to select a single file to
convert. The converted file will be stored under the same name with a '.SQ'
extension. If an entire directory contains the identical type of file and
you wish to convert all of the files in the directory, the
'Convert a Directory' option can be chosen.
To create your own conversion file (for those of you who really have it
together!), load the Sound Quest driver supporting type of data to be
converted into the File Conversion Window. Use either 'Load Driver from Disk'
or 'Load Driver from List' to load the currently selected driver in the Driver
List Window. Next, Enter a macro which will load the old file as a Sound
Quest file. Important relevant Macro commands are 'DR n m' (Disk Read) and
'DS n' (Disk Seek). Finally, an old data file can be loaded into a SysX View
Window for analysis in creating the conversion macro. While possible, this
file should NOT be saved as a SQ data file.
