[comp.sys.mac] How snd -> Sound?

rc3h+@andrew.cmu.edu (Ross Ward Comer) (12/17/89)

I have several snd resources that I would like to transfer to files that are
somewhat more useful, preferably something that SoundPlay or Soundmaster can
understand.

Is there a utility or method of doing this?


Thanks,
ross

Ross: Two shareware sound utilities will do what you need. Sound Leech will
extract a snd_ resource from anything and create a data file that can be
used by SoundMaster. Sound Mover (current version = 1.51r) does all kinds of
things including several format conversions. Both are on all the networks.

If you're really into sounds, get Farallon's MacRecorder. It comes with
SoundEdit and lots of Hypercard stuff. Then you can make your own sounds and
edit them and everyone else's all night like I do. SoundEdit can open either
resource or data sounds and Save As... the other format (including the
special HyperCard format). Not much bucks for a lot of fun. -Russ
