The files included in this ARC are for your listening
     enjoyment. They were all digitized using the DigiPlay soft-
     ware from Alpha Systems. Compared to ST-Replay, it is a bit
     cheaper and sounds just as good as Replay does. As a matter
     of fact the digitizer that I use is a Navarone/Hippo. It's
     funny that this digitizer is such a good piece of hardware
     but the software for it STINKS! I bought the DigiPlay soft-
     ware from Alpha and it makes the Navarone act just like the
     DigiSound Professional! You can do anything that the Pro
     model can do. So if you're one of those people who bought
     the Navarone/Hippo digitizer in hopes of good sound and
     were disappointed, do yourself a favor, get the DigiPlay
     software from Alpha Systems, it only costs $49.95 and it's
     worth EVERY PENNY!!!!
          I am working on a GEM based conversion program to go
     back and forth between the three basic types of sound files
     available to the Atari community (i.e. DigiSound, ST-Replay,
     Navarone/Hippo). When it's done I'll post up here on GEnie.
          The file "PLAYDIGI.PRG" is a DigiSound file player. I
     threw it together "quick and dirty" but it should be pretty
     much bug free. The file "STARTSND.PRG" will allow you to
     have the Atari play a particular sound file on boot up. Just
     put "STARTSND.PRG" in your "AUTO" folder and make sure the
     sound file is named "STARTUP.SND" and is in your ROOT
     directory. It should boot, play the sound, then go on about
     it's business. If no sound file is found or not in the right
     place the computer won't lock up! They were both written using
     Alcyon 'C'. BE WARNED: ST-Replay files sound horrible if you
     try to play them with these files!! Like I said above, that's
     coming later!

                                   Have Fun,
                                   E.E. Aycock

     P.S. My favorite sound file is the "ROBOCOOP.SND" file. The
          quality is outstanding!
