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,

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