Actually, we found it not that difficult.  All we had to do was open a copy of
Solarian with ResEdit and give the sounds _names_ as well as id numbers.
SoundEdit then was able to open and manipulate them without a problem.

these sounds, name them approriately, and upload the resultant resource file?
Thanks.
