[comp.sys.mac.programmer] Sound files...

dalea@fai.UUCP (Dale M. Arends) (10/15/88)

I am in the process of putting together a small routine to play digitized
sounds as found in 'FSSD' type files.  My problem is that I don't know how
to determine the sampling rate they were recorded at without trying them.

There has to be a way to tell if the file contains sounds at the various
sampling rates since some programs can do it.  If anyone knows how, I'd
appreciate being being informed.  I can be reached at the UUCP address above
or at "dalea@fai.com".

Thanks,

Dale

	I'm looking for information about the various format(s) of Mac sounds
files, use by programs like SoundMaster, etc.  I am interested in a writing
a program to play Mac sounds on an IBM PC.  Some programs already exist, but
they cannot play all of the sounds files that SoundMaster can.  Some just come
out as static.  I assume there is some header information that specifies the
format of the file, followed by the data.   I would like information on the
format of both the header and the data.  

Please reply in e-mail.

Thanks.

George
