Silence Is Boring - the signature sound of Clixsounds, this file has a touch of techno that exclaims "Silence Is Boring!" ending with an explosive climax.
Prayer Of Power Macintosh - a powerhouse sound that begs the question of which computer God uses. He replies, thunderously.

System Alert Beeps
Audion includes over 150 unique System Alert Beeps, each available in both 16-bit/44.1kHz and 8-bit/22.5kHz stereo versions. The beeps ranges from 1 second up to 2.5 seconds and range in style from extremely hi-tech, musical, mechanic, to natural. These are unique sounds in that they are not merely sound effects, but each contain excellent stereo effects and are of the highest clarity and fidelity.
 
System Clock Sounds
Audion includes 15 sets of sounds for use as your System Clock Sounds, which can play at 1/4 Past, 1/2 Past, 1/4 'Til, Top Of the Hour, and chime. Each set contains a sound for each function of the hour which is uniform with the theme of the set. The sounds can be used with the Date & Time Control Panel of System 7.5, or with the shareware "SuperClock" control panel.
System Clock Sounds Sets Include:
Grandfather Clock - a highly-requested set of clock sounds, this set contains pure samples of a grandfather clock that will allow your Mac to emulate its classic chiming melody.
Alien Voice - a great set of sounds in an alien voice announcing the status of the hour in a sci-fi method. ".75 light-years to the hour," ".5 light years to the hour," ".25 light-years to the hour," "You have arrived at the top of the hour." The chime is galactic in style.
Walky Talky - a unique set of sounds that simulate a voice via short-wave radio. "Quarter past the hour, over," "Half past the hour, Over," "Quarter 'Til the hour, over," and "Top of the hour, over and out!" The chime is in Morse code.
Rock-n-Roll - this set is a rockin' bunch of sounds for your clock, each made of a screaming lick on an electric guitar in the melody of a grandfather clock. The chime is a jammin' chord of distortion.
Nature Clock - a light set of sounds full of natural sounding effects with a new age twist. Each sound is distinctive to its function and makes a nice, soft-sounding announcement of time.
And 10 other great sets!
 
Collectibles
Audion includes collectible sounds from the "Star Battle" series, "Happy Birthday" sounds, and "Monster Macintosh Rally," to an entire collection of the "Holiday Series."
Star Battle - this series of sounds progresses with each sound file to make a continuing story. Audion includes several 30-second episodes that take the story to a new level and sound great when played in order.
Monster Macintosh Rally - an exciting new parody of the screaming monster-truck rally commercials aired on the radio full of blazing motors and yelling announcers saying "Be there!" This new sound is a 30-second file of pure butt-kicking, binary-breathing, number-crunching power of Macintosh proportion.
And more, including "Happy Birthday" versions, and Holiday Sounds.
 
Email Sound Replacements
Another feature of the Audion CD-ROM is the variety of sounds designed for email programs like Claris Emailer and Eudora Pro. For programs like Eudora Light, which do not allow user-assigned sounds, Audion provides automatic sound replacers , which install the sound for you.
Email Sound Replacements include:
Professional Male and Female Voices - sounds for anyone looking for a straight-forward, professional type voice that announces the arrival of new mail.
Alien Voice - a cool alien voice that announces the arrival of new communications. This sound is designed to match the Alien Voice Clock Sounds.

Robotic Mail - announced by a highly mechanic voice, this sound makes a nice hi-tech touch to an email program.

And more, 25 in all! Each in stereo.

Thin Air StartUp - an exciting little clip that begins in darkness and suddenly reveals the word "Macintosh" one letter at a time, as the begin revolving from left to right. The audio follows the transition from left to right, creating a nice effect.

Take your Mac to new heights with a sound package that enables your Macintosh to play sounds during virtually any function of your computer! This Control Panel allows you to assign a sound to play when your Mac starts up, a different one when you empty your trash, another when you insert a disk, eject a disk, make a file copy, restart, shutdown....every function with a different sound! Your Mac can even tell you when it's the top of the hour, 1/4 past, 1/2 past, or 1/4 'til the hour, and even chime the count of the hour.
Clixsoundmaster is a full package that includes the Clixsoundmaster Control Panel, plus great sounds by Clixsounds to match the functions. With your order you receive Clixsoundmaster and your choice of one of three settings files:
• STEREO SETTINGS- these sounds are made to be played on stereo speakers or headphones, though neither are required. All of the sounds that come in this package are in stereo.

Advantages Of Using Clixsoundmaster:
Perhaps the only downside of shareware versions other sound utilities of this type is the fact that it does not come with any sounds, especially high-quality ones.
