ConvertMachine 1.0
This is the first release of ConvertMachine. It is a fat binary
meaning it runs on 68K machines and native on PPC machines.
It is released as $10 Shareware and registering and payment
can be made using email through Kagi Shareware. Different
fees apply for company and site licenses; see the Register
application.
It is mostly a batch processing utility to convert sound format files
to a desired type. This means it performs one or more of the
following without user interaction: decompression, resampling
(sample rate conversion), mixing (stereo to mono) and compression.
You don't need to worry about what format the file is in; all you
specify is the desired output format.
Finder Sound files (sfil), AIFF files, WAVE files, AU Mu-law and linear
and QuickTime Audio (Movies) can be freely converted.
Manually you can import off Audio CDs into any of the above formats.
You can save your popular Settings under as a menu item or as a
separate Settings file. The common web formats are flagged and
ready to use as defaults, such as audio/basic mono 8kHz mu-law.
After conversion files can be automatically sent to SoundMachine
for playing.
It needs QuickTime 2.1 and Apple's Sound Manager 3.1 or later.
If you have installed System 7.5.3 then, no worries, you have these.
If you want to get these or later extensions I have some convenient
ftp and other links on my Web pages.
Help: Use balloon help.
Report any bugs to rod@kagi.com; I will definitely read each email but
responding to them may not be practical.
