- 1. Disk Organization
-
- Developer Kit for Sound Blaster Series (SBK) diskettes are
- organized into the following subdirectories:
-
- \DRIVER : contains various drivers
- \C : include files, libraries and example programs
- for Microsoft C and Turbo C
- \BASIC : include files, libraries, quick libraries and
- example programs for QuickBasic and Basic PDS
- 7.1
- \TPASCAL : include files, Turbo Pascal Unit (TPU) and
- example programs for Turbo Pascal 6
-
- In the subdirectory \C, files are further organized into
- subdirectories as follow:
-
- \INCLUDE : include files for Microsoft C and Turbo C
- \LIB : libraries for Microsoft C and Turbo C
- \MSC : example programs for Microsoft C
- \TC : example programs for Turbo C
-
- The C example programs are organized into subdirectories under
- \MSC and \TC as follow:
-
- \CDAUDIO : example for CD audio
- \EFFECT : example for fade and pan effect
- \GENERAL : general examples
- \INCLUDE : loaddrv.c include file
- \MIDI : examples for MIDI I/O
- \MUSIC : examples for FM music
- \SPEECH : examples for Text-to-Speech
- \VOICE : examples for voice I/O
-
- In the subdirectory \BASIC, files are further organized into
- subdirectories as follow:

- For the two BASIC languages, if you are compiled within the
- integrated environment, you have to use QBSBC.QLB and QB7SBC.QLB
- for QuickBasic and Basic PDS 7.1 respectively. If you are
- compiled and linked from the DOS command line, the libraries to
- be used are then QBSBC.LIB and QB7SBC.LIB respectively.
-
- The voice and music files, DEMO.VOC, DEMO1.VOC and FFARES.CMF
- used in the Basic, C and Turbo Pascal example programs are
- located in the root directory.

- 2. Drivers
-
- Developer Kit for Sound Blaster Series covers the whole series of
- Sound Blaster audio cards' programming. Each of the card has it
- respective drivers. These drivers are located in the \DRIVER
- directory and distinguished by the file name and extension. They
- are included in the SBK distribution disks for your development.
- You do not have to include them with you product. We will
- distribute the drivers to our users through our large distribution
- network.
-
- The drivers in the \DRIVER directory are not the actual name used.
- You have to copy them to their target path and name before you can
- use them. Remember to use the correct drivers for the respective
- card.
-
-
- Table below shows the cards' drivers and their target path and
- name:
