nuWAVes V1.10
=============
The files included in this archive do not comprise a program or
application of any kind. Instead, they are a series of sound files
designed to be plugged into Windows and OS/2, as either system sounds
or for use with various applications (ie: multimedia games). They
offer an increased choice of interesting event-driven sounds that will
allow you greater flexibility in personalizing your system. It's YOUR
CHOICE as to what sound effect will be used for each event (ie: Windows
Exit, Open Folder, etc.)
Instructions
============
(NOTE: The .VOC series of files has been DISCONTINUED due to a complete
lack of interest in them and the extra work involved in maintaining
them. Converters are available to convert from .WAV to .VOC - if you
need some of these files converted to .VOC format, send me email at
numanoid@netway.ab.ca and I'll email them to you)
First, PKUNZIP/UNZIP the NUMANW11.ZIP file into a temporary directory.
Next, move the WAV files into the appropriate directory. The best
place to put them (assuming you want to use them with your system as
system sounds) is the same place as your existing sounds, which should be:
Windows - x:\WINDOWS
OS/2 - x:\MMOS2\SOUNDS
(where "x:" is the drive you installed the operating system on)
Then (assuming you've already installed sound support):
Under Windows, open the Control Panel. Click on SOUND. The new WAV
files will be available and you can now customize any listed system
event. Note that as you add new application programs to Windows, they
may add additional events to this list - you can customize those later.
Under OS/2, place the pointer on the desktop (NOT on an open window)
and click the RIGHT mouse button. A pop-up window will appear: click
on SYSTEM SETUP. A menu will appear: click on SOUND. The new WAV
files will be available and you can now customize any listed system
event. Note that as you add new application programs to Windows, they
may add additional events to this list - you can customize those later.
=============
REVISIONS
=============
1.10 - Re-edited most of the original files so that they're "cleaner"
coming in and going out. Dropped .VOC series.
1.00 - Original release.
===========
CREDITS
===========
This collection of files was edited by Joey Lindstrom and is released
into the public domain. Copyright is held in the original recordings
by several entities, but the original author's policy towards this type
of "unauthorized" duplication is to encourage, rather than discourage,
the practice, particularly when due credit is given.
All sounds have been taken from a number of albums by "new wave" artist
Gary Numan, as noted below. Gary Numan is much, much more than the
star behind the 1979 mega-hit single, "Cars". Be sure to pick up your
copy of "The Best Of Gary Numan '78-'83" in most record stores
throughout North America and the UK, and if you'd like to see what he's
been up to lately, order a copy of his latest album "Sacrifice" from
the UK - it's well worth the price of admission.
