- Welcome to Digital Sound Player version 1.0 1/22/94
-
- Digital Sound Player 1.0 (DSP) is a menu driven program that
- plays a digital sound file on your Sound Blaster, AdLib
- Personal Computer Music System, Disney Sound Source or 100%
- compatibles.
-
- This README file contains important, last minute information.
- If you have a printer, please print and read the documentation
- file DSP.DOC.
-
- This program has been tested on the following:
-
- - a 33MH 486 running DOS 6.0 with a Sound Blaster 16.
- - a 25MH 386DX running MSDOS 3.3 with an AdLib.
- - a 16MH 386SX running MSDOS 3.3 and PCDOS 2.1 with a
- Sound Blaster 1.5 and a Disney Sound Source
-
- We suggest you load this program to your hard disk. Digital
- audio files can get very large, and loading them (and this
- program) to your hard disk will improve performance. Floppy
- disks do not have the throughput to sustain the 11,000 bytes
- per second transfer rates required.
-
- We are extremely interested in your constructive comments
- and suggestions. Feedback from users, even negative
- feedback, helps us to improve our game products. We thank
- you for your interest in TAG SOFTWARE products.

- INSTALLATION
-
- DSP should be executable directly from the floppy disk.
- We suggest that you make a backup copy, using your favorite
- disk duplication program. We strongly suggest that you
- install DSP on your hard disk. Performance is affected by
- floppy drive throughput.
-
- EXECUTING DSP FROM A FLOPPY:
-
- 1) Insert the floppy disk containing DSP into a floppy
- disk drive. If this drive is the "B" drive then use "B:"
- instead of "A:" in the remaining steps.
-
- 2) For systems with a Sound Blaster or AdLib, at the DOS
- prompt type:
-
- A:
- DSP
-
- For systems with a Disney Sound Source, at the DOS prompt
- type:
-
- A:
- DSP -D
-
- 3) On the screen you should see the screen as described in
- DSP.DOC. You should be able to play any of the supplied
- sound files by using the arrow keys to move the highlight bar to
- the file and typing P.
-
- Note that we have included 4 very good sound files. You can
- use DSP to play any digital sound files you may have. If
- you don't have any, see our catalog (CATALOG.DOC). We have a
- large selection that we can supply at a nominal price. And,
- when you register you get one FREE disk from our Digital Audio
- Collection Series as part of your registration bonus.
-
- INSTALLATION TO HARD DISK:
-
- If you have received your copy of DSP 1.0 from a disk
- or rack vendor, they may have included an installation
- program. If so, then follow the directions supplied therein.
- Otherwise, follow these directions.
-
- 1) Insert the floppy disk containing DSP into the
- floppy disk drive. If this drive is the "B" drive, use
- "B:" instead of "A:" in the remaining steps.
-
- 2) You should create a directory on your hard disk. We
- suggest DSP as its name. It can be on any of your
- DOS disks. These procedures assume that you will install
- DSP on your C: disk. If you wish to install it on
- another of your disks, substitute that disk for C: in the
- rest of these steps. Type the following to create the
- directory.
-
- C:
- CD \
- MKDIR DSP
- CD DSP
-
- 3) Copy the contents of the floppy disk into the directory you
- just created on your hard disk.
-
- COPY A:*.*
-
- 4) Digital Sound Player 1.0 is now installed on your hard
- disk. To complete the installation, print out the DSP.DOC
- and REGISTER.DOC files.
-
- 5) For systems with a Sound Blaster or AdLib, at the DOS
- prompt type:
-
- DSP
-
- For systems with a Disney Sound Source, at the DOS prompt
- type:
-
- DSP -D
-
- 6) On the screen you should see the screen as described in
- DSP.DOC. You should be able to play any of the supplied
- sound files by using the arrow keys to move the highlight bar to
- the file and typing P.
-
- Note that we have included 4 very good sound files. You can
- use DSP to play any digital sound files you may have. If
- you don't have any, see our catalog (CATALOG.DOC). We have a
- large selection that we can supply at a nominal price. And,
- when you register you get one FREE disk from our Digital Audio
- Collection Series as part of your registration bonus.
-
- QUICK INSTALLATION
-
