QUARTET PLAYER 3 by Dan Panke (93-05-01)
Use of QUARTET PLAYER 3 is almost self-explanitory. Just a few quick
instructions.
1) QUARTET PLAYER 3 works in any resolution on an Atari ST or
STe. Simply select your song and voice set via the file selector
box and sit back and enjoy. To stop the music, press <SPACE>.
NOTE: If your voice set has the same prefix as your song then
the QUARTET PLAYER will not ask you for a VOICE SET. To bypass
this (and select another VOICE SET) hold down any of the
following keys when selecting your SONG: Control, Alternate or
Shift.
2) The files 'Q_PLAY3.PRG' and 'SINGSONG.DAT' must be in the same
path.
3) If you want a text file displayed with your song, create a
text file, name it the same as your song file, but add a 'T' (for
Text) after the .4V extender.
Example: SHEDEVIL.4V (song file)
SHEDEVIL.4VT (text file)
This text file must also be in the same folder as your song file
to be displayed.
NOTES:
1) Should QUARTET PLAYER 3 lock up when playing a song this
normally indicates that your song has a looping error within the
song. The QUARTET program itself overcomes these errors but the
SINGSONG.DAT does not.
For a good selection of QUARTET SONGS and VOICE SETS, call the
Bullet BBS at (613) 731-2779.
Any comments or suggestions, drop me a line...

UPDATES:
Version 3.21
Turned the CAPSLOCK OFF before calling the file selector. Input
made the QUARTET PLAYER believe the SHIFT key was held down and
request a VOICE SET even though a matching SONG was selected.
Version 3.30
Finally overcame the problem with multiple song plays. Everything
appears to work like a charm!
Version 3.40
Enabled song files (.4V) to be compressed with PACK ICE Version
2.40. Big savings on disk space if desired. (NOTE: Do not pack the
voice sets. Saving on voice set compression is very minimal.)
Version 3.50
Allowed the player to accept QUARTET songs, sets and text files
strung together. With the use of MAKE_ONE.PRG and SEPARATE.PRG you
can combine and separate the various QUARTET files. Strung files
will have the extender ".4Q". 4Q files can be compressed with
PACK ICE 2.40.
Version 3.51
Fixed a minor bug in the screen display for a 4Q file that did not
contain appended text.
Version 3.60
Quartet Player 3 now uses about 30K less memory. 4Q and/or 4V
files can now be compressed with the SPEEDPACKER v3 program.
