[comp.sys.mac.programmer] Digidesign snth resource

Are there any Digidesign developers out there?

I am sending down SndDoCommands to System 6.0.7's Sound Manager using
Digidesign's special InterleavedBufferCmd.  I can't get the Digidesign
snth to play, though.

Could this be due to the fact that InterleavedBufferCmd is defined as a
negative number? The Sound Manager doc says that if the high bit is set,
then the longword parameter is treated as an offset from the beginning
of the resource (it is assumed that the SndCommand is embedded within
some sort of 'snd ') instead of a regular pointer to the buffer.  I want
to specify my own buffer and not have to construct a 'snd ' resource.
I am using the NewSoundHeader defined by Digidesign.

I am running this on an si, if it makes any difference.

Cheers,
Terry
