komatsu@alcor.usc.edu (-----> Dave) (10/07/90)

First of all we are having some trouble with mass mailing on the e-mail
address.  Will anybody willing to help solve this problem send e-mail
to: komatsu@aludra.usc.edu.  The bottom line is we have over 150 names
and need a program to automatically mail a message to all of the
addresses.   Thanks and now the more important stuff for all you sound
people.

If you received this newsletter by e-mail you have two options

(1)  Do nothing!  You are already on the sound list.
(2)  Send e-mail to: komatsu@uhunix.uhcc.hawaii.edu.  Make sure that
     your message begins on a new line and contains:
  
     REMOVE: your e-mail address

     and this will remove your name from the mailing list.

If you are reading this on a USENET 'rn' newsgroup and DID NOT RECEIVE
this by e-mail and want to be added onto our mailing list send the
following to: komatsu@uhunix.uhcc.hawaii.edu.  Make sure that your
message begins on a new line and contains:

ADD-ME: your e-mail address

By adding yourself to the mailing list the following will happen.

(1)  You will continue to receive these newsletters telling you of
     advances in sound on computers; and sound files, including, but 
     not limited to SoundBlaster/MIDI/REmac/PLAYMAC.

(2)  You will receive a special copy of PLAYMAC 2.0 which is a 
     point-n-shoot shell for REmac.  (Sorry this only works on
     IBM and compatible PC's with a 80286-10 or higher CPU).

(3)  Periodic updates as to when new files are available on
