- Sounding Board is an exciting, revolutionary product that adds the
- power of sound and voice to your PC. Whether you're working within DOS,
- Windows or a networking environment, you can record and play any
- sound you want. All you have to do is pick up the telephone handset
- provided -- or connect stereo equipment directly to Sounding Board's
- audio in and out jacks -- bring up the handy on-screen menu, and start
- making noise!
-
- But there's much more to Sounding Board than "record" and "play."
- When used within a LAN environment, it allows you to add voice to your
- PC communications. So you can talk it over. Sound off. Speak your mind.
- Which is much faster than typing. Which saves you time and money.
-
- Winner of PC Magazine's 1990 Technical Excellence award, the
- Artisoft Sounding Board adapter comes with everything you need to speak
- and be heard. A telephone-style handset provides stunning clarity and
- sound pickup. SoundPUP software, included for both DOS and Windows,
- records, stores and replays in a snap. And audio in-and-out jacks connect
- to external sound components like CD players, tape recorders and
- amplifiers.
-
- Sounding Board digitizes sound, preserving it in nearly its original
- fidelity. And with SoundPUP, you can use your Sounding Board right out
- of the box to dictate documents or record messages, save them to disk
- files and then share them with other Sounding Board users -- all in your
- own voice!
-
- Better yet, SoundPUP lets you add sound capabilities to any software
- that supports OLE (Object Linking and Embedding) for Windows or that
- can issue command lines to DOS. So you can use Sounding Board to
- provide narration in multimedia presentations, annotate documents with
- voice messages, provide high-quality digital dictation over a LAN and add
- voice functions to existing software. And because it works in the
- background, it won't tie up your computer.
-

- (ISA) and Micro Channel compatibles.
