STE NEWS COLUMN
---------------
Welcome to the STE column, from here we will include all STE
news, reviews and special program details.
However for this issue's disk we have two reviews of STE
compatible samplers (that use the DMA chip) and some program
details.
STE : ON THE DISK
-----------------
On the disk you should find in the GOODIES folder the special STE
folder, this contains only STE programs.
GOODIES\STE
-----------
STEBOOT This program is for STE owners with version
1.6 of TOS. All it does is alter your desktop
files allowing them to boot into Meduim
Resolution. This is a lot easier than
altering them with a disk editor.
See DOC file for more details
STEPLAY This loads samples, converts them to STE
stereo samples and enables you to play them
at 6.2,12.5,25 and 50Khz, and you can save
them to disk.
See doc file for more info
STESAM.LST Basic GFA STE DMA mono playback of samples,
interuppt driven. See seperate article.
VIC.SPL Sample of Vic Reeves for above program.
MONSTER STEREO SAMPLER
----------------------
This sampler takes advantage of the DMA chip of the STE, and also
provides STEREO for ST users with the Monster Stereo Cartridge
(See review).
It can take samples directly from Walkmans,CDs, or Hi-Fis,
enabling you to create true stereo samples. The amazing thing is
though 520 users have 425K free! Normally this would be about
270K or so.
It also features Real-Time filtering compression, this enables
you to sample at very high frequencies then sqeeze the sample
into low frequencies say 7.5KHZ from 75KHZ! This enables you to
retain clarity but save memory as well.
The program can also split 2 Meg samples into 800K samples, one each
disk, and it can format them whilst using the program so you
needn't re-sample.
Also , split screen diplay, oscilloscopes, volume controls, cross
fade pan, and of course mono or STEREO.

MICRODEAL STEREO REPLAY
-----------------------
Microdeal's replay cartridge is one of the best ever sampling
cartridges and now it has been converted to Stereo.
The cartridge is an 8-Bit digital to analogue converter, having
twin phono input and output sockets, allowing it to receive
samples from Hi-Fi and also output samples to Hi-Fis.
Noizetracker also supports ST Replay output.
It comes with stereo editing software, which allos samples to be
loaded into 8, 12 or 16 bit resolutions, in mono and stereo. Then
allowing you to convert between the three, this enables you to
load a 16-Bit MONO sample and convert it into 8 BIT STEREO
samples.
Also featured, channel cross fade, sample pan, loop-cross fade.
MIDI is supported allowing you to add digital effects.
STEREO BEAT is also supplied (as in playback), allowing 15
samples to be loaded up then output in stereo!
COST:£89.95
