Has anyone used both the software that comes with MacRecorder and Impulse Soundwave? I have read reviews of Soundwave, which sounds wonderful, but know nothing about MacRecorder's software (not even its name). I am also wondering about conversion programs. Someone else has already asked about programs to convert to SoundWave format. How about the other way around? Is there any difference in the hardware? I have been told "no" but only be relatively uninformed sources. --mike bergman@m2c.org (IN) --mike bergman bergman@m2c.org

I don't think you can add your own routines to SoundEdit. Theoretically you can do anything with SoundWave, if you know how to program the mac. >I am also wondering about conversion programs.

SoundEdit unpacked mono files are compatible with SoundWave. Is this what you asked? >Is there any difference in the hardware? I have been told "no" but >only be relatively uninformed sources. SoundWave can use both digitizers, but SoundEdit only supports MacRecorder. I guess there are some differences. _._._._._._._._._._._._._._._._._._._._._._._._._._._._._._._._._._._._._._._._ | Juri Munkki jmunkki@hut.fi jmunkki@fingate.bitnet I Want Ne | | Helsinki University of Technology Computing Centre My Own XT | ~^~^~^~^~^~^~^~^~^~^~^~^~^~^~^~^~^~^~^~^~^~^~^~^~^~^~^~^~^~^~^~^~^~^~^~^~^~^~^~

The software that comes with MacRecorder is called SoundEdit and is every bit as good as Soundwave, only better. > >I am also wondering about conversion programs.

Using SoundEdit you can save as a snd resource (even install one in a file), as a "standard" SoundWave file, or as an instrument. I don't know of any other sound formats. > >Is there any difference in the hardware? I have been told "no" but >only be relatively uninformed sources. > Sorry, don't know this one.

(Odd, since it works quite nicely on a Mac II.) Farallon says it has something to do with timing loops, which mystifies me, since both the Mac II and the Radius board use 68020s at the same clock speed.
