Subject: Apologies to you!
Dear John,
I want to begin by apologizing to you if I insulted you or hurt
you feelings in any way. I am sorry I got a little carried away. I guess
that I am a little frustrated that my GUS has not worked perfectly from
the start. Again I am sorry if I sounded like I was making a personal
attack on you.
I do feeel strongly about the role of customer service and I am
still concerned that some people are not getting the help they need.
All in all though if I had to do it over again I would get a GUS.
If just to here the awesome mods on SC2.
I hope that work goes well and you get many more compliments than
complaints.
Sincerely
Gunnar Swanson

This is in reply to Gunnar "Mad as Hell" Swanson and the others that have
been complaining over the last few days about John Smith not answering
messages. Gravis has just re-located to a larger headquarters, and everyone
there has been (and still is) quite busy. Furthermore, John is human, and
unlike a god us humans can't do five thousand things at once. Please keep
this in mind before posting ridiculously silly messages to the digest. You're
a lot better off than people who have to deal with Creative Labs; they don't
even speak much english.

Bit of a problem. I just got myself a new 3.5mm to RCA adapter cord
and along the way discovered that my L and R have been back to front.
Anyway, thanks to the joys of the Cakewalk interpolate command I've moved
them to the correct way around. I've put them all in chrismid.zip.
i.e. chris1.mid, chris2.mid, chris4.mid, chrisnot.mid
(and a bonus track (!) - a revamped air.mid).
Also loaded up chrisnot.zip seperately just so that people didn't log in and
find it wasn't there.
Sorry about that ...
For the record, the noise at the start of Chris4.mid should pan L to R,
NOT R to L. I'm pretty sure I've got it right this time ...
One other thing. I had some people write to me about not having ftp
access and I sent them a copy of the first 4 mids (?I think? ). Could these
people plus any others who are interested get back to me again so I can put
them on my new `Gus chris music' mailing list? (Sorry, but my mail's been a
bit hectic lately and I don't really want to go back looking through it all).
When I post something on epas I'll also put out a uuencoded copy through
Email. PLEASE only if you don't have ftp access though.
Chris. (chrisw@leland.stanford.edu)

Using SBOS 2.04, the digitized stuff comes out crystal clear and in
synch. Can't say anything about the music, though. I'm playing it
off my Roland. :-) It should be ok. Great game!

Thinking about it , I think this might have already been asked, but I do
not remember reading any answers. I was just wondering if
anyone has tried the Covox Voice Blaster (voice recognition software)
on our GUS? and if it works OK? (like with windows, ect)
thanx in advance. dave

Just wanted to respond to a question of game companies Internet addresses
from before :
Microprose - 76004.2223@CompuServe.Com
Lucas Arts - 75300.454@Compuserve.Com
By the way, I downloaded SBOS 2.06 from the Gravis BBS and installed it.
It just seems to have the added feature of a config file for gamw switches
to be used automatically. It is suppose to alter the volume of some background
music, but I don't see the difference. And for me, it locks up my computer
when I try to load it high. It looks like I'm re-installing version 2.04
today...
