-
- Yes, this is possible. To save Mathematica sounds as "*.snd" files, there are
- the following steps:
-
- 1. Create the sound in Mathematica
- 2. Start the "/NeXTDeveloper/Demos/SoundPlayer" program, or any of the
- available sound editors (SoundWorks, EdSound, etc.).
- 3. Open a "new" document in the sound program.
- 4. In Mathematica, select the cell in which the sound resides (the
- PostScript cell).
- 5. Copy the cell into the NeXT Pasteboard (by pressing Command-C, or
- selecting the "Copy" menu option).
- 6. Paste the cell into the sound program.
- 7. Save the sound from the sound program, using Command-s, or
- Command-S.
-
- Now the sound will be saved as a native "*.snd" file with a NeXT sound header
- attached to it.
