Shareware Breakthrough - Sound Works Welcome to "Shareware Breakthrough - Sound Works" by BeachWare. We thank you for purchasing this CD-ROM and hope you find it useful, and a lot of fun. This CD-ROM contains 2,177 separate sound stored in Windows .WAV format (They are also stored in both SoundEdit and System 7 Beep Sound formats on the Macintosh partition on this disc). Each of the sounds is conveniently organized into 30 separate categories such as Animals, High Tech, Humor, People, and more. Included in the folder "Programs" is a program called "Whoop It Up!" that allows you to assign sounds to a wide variety of Windows events. Included is a Windows Browser program that lets you try each of the 2,177 sounds as well as copy from this vast collection. Now I know that you are all probably asking "Why specifically 2,177?" Is it because 2,177, when spoken, as lots of syllables? Is it because 2,177 is not a prime number under base 17? Is it because that's when the microphone broke? Was the CD-ROM filling up? The answer is that there is no answer, we just decided it was time to start working on the next CD-ROM. INSTALLATION The "Sound Works" Browser is meant to work on Windows 3.1 or Windows 3.0 with Multimedia Extensions, with a sound card installed under Windows. To install the Browser, put the CD-ROM into the drive. Start Windows. From the "Run..." item in the "File" menu in Program Manager, type "D:SETUP", where "D:" is the letter of your CD-ROM drive. Follow any on-screen instructions. The setup program will create a new group called "Sounds," and place the browser and the readme file into that group. Simply double-click on the "Sound Works" icon to run the program. In order to properly hear .WAV sounds in Windows, you must have a sound driver installed as well as a sound card that gives you sound capabilities. Sound drivers are installed under the "Drivers" item in the "Control Panels" program in the "Main" program group. Consult your Windows documentation or sound card documentation for proper setup of sound capabilites under Windows. USAGE All of the sounds are completely license-free.
