[comp.sys.mac.misc] Information on ADC -> SND format conversion programs

yeshwant@ogicse.ogi.edu (Yeshwant K Muthusamy) (11/14/90)

I'm on the lookout for software/shareware/freeware that will convert an
ADC format (see below) sound file to a 'snd' (format 2) file that can
then be played on a Mac IIx using Hypercard's 'play' command.

I just came across a shareware program called Sound Mover (v1.62) 
written by Ricardo Ettore. This program converts SoundCap4.4 files to 
snd (format 2) files. Before I shell out $25 to become a 
registered user of this program, I'd like to know if it has the above
capability I need.  The two pages of Help provided with this program
say that ASND, SMSD, DEWF, FSND format files are accepted and that
the program can be made to accept other sound files as well.
My question: does it accept ADC format files?

[The header of an ADC file is described below. Following the header are 
the data points (sample values) which are 16 bit short integers.

struct ad_head {
    short ad_hdrsize;		/* Size of header, including this
				 * this field, in short words */
    short ad_version;
    short ad_channels;
    short ad_rate;			/* In quarter usec */
    int   ad_samples;
    int	  little_indian;	/* True if least significant byte is
				 * byte 0, ie. Vax byteorder */
};]


I'd appreciate any pointers/suggestions from people who've used 
Sound Mover or know of *ANY*  Mac software that converts adc
files to snd files.  (just ADC -> SoundCap4.4 is also OK).

Please respond by e-mail, since I'm not a regular reader of this 
newsgroup.

Thanks in advance.
