- There are 3 options that I know of:
-
- 1) If you have HyperCard IIgs you can purchase an excellent system called
- SoundConvert from Triad Venture (sold thru Quality, BRCC, and the usual
- suspects for ~$30). This package includes a stack which converts to and from
- many IIgs sound formats, including rSound and synthLAB .WAV.
-
- 2) If you have a shell and are a hacker-type you can check out the Unknown
- User's rSounder shell EXE for Orca/APW/GNO. The user interface is nonexistant
- but it gets the job done.
-
- 3) Paul Benson (I think) wrote a nice shareware desktop program called rSounder
- which has a pretty nice user interface, and of course has great support since
- he's here on c.s.a2.
-
- Note that I wrote portions of and recieve royalty checks from sales of
- SoundConvert so I'm not unbiased :)
-
- FYI: AudioZap 2.0 will =only= be made avalible to paid owners of earlier
- versions and there will be a serial number scheme to enforce this (it worked
- quite well for the DreamWorld and Procyon folks, so I'm gonna do it too :)
