==============================
     Blaster Master V.4.0
  for the CMS Sound Blaster
 (C) by Gary Maddox 07/04/91
==============================

Version 4.0 - 07/04/91
   This version represents the most significant enhancements to BLASTER
   Master yet. The individual modules were imbedded into the editor for
   a much better user interface and an over-all reduction of about 400K
   in file size. New functions like INSERT and MUTE were added. All of
   the limited functions were extended to a 30 second maximum and the
   Hi-Res Sampler was completely un-crippled. A great deal of debugging
   and re-programming went into v4.0. Most of the problems with process-
   ing small VOC files should be fixed. I would also like to thank all
   of the folks at Paul Mace Software and Media Vision for there support!

Version 3.1 - 05/20/91
   Dropped the old CGA Scope program and added a "new" real mode scope
   program. Added the DELETE option on the BMASTER program. Added an
   error message screen to most of the functions. Added a choice of which
   file to edit after a CUT or a SAVE to the editor. Added a recording
   module with a volume level graph. 

Version 3.0 - 03/30/91
   Fixed problem with recorder. Version 2.8 had a corrupted EXE file. When
   I started "fixing" what I thought was a bug, I broke it for real!!!
   Fixed problem with down sampler not processing the last segment of each 
   file. Added an /EGA switch to BMASTER and SBEDIT to support older 64K EGA
   cards. Incorporated SBCOPE into SBEDIT to make the over-all package smaller.
   Added the much asked for "ZOOM" feature in the editor. Dropped the "Mark"
   or "Cut" button from the editor. Dropped the SBGRAPH program from the
   package. The "ZOOM" feature of the editor should handle this now. Updated
   the Hi-Res Sampler to work better in 33mhz mode.

Version 2.9 - 02/15/91
   Quick bug fix version. I recently rewrote the record function to work
   with my '486 and to make it a bit more reliable. Someone was having
   lock ups on their machine. The version 2.8 recorder would probably
   ONLY work on a '486!
 
Version 2.8 - 02/15/91
   Improved the digital delay program. Dropped the SBFILTER program and
   added an FFT based graphic equalizer. Made several enhancements to the
   editor, including a file selection dialog box and a playback position
   index. Fixed some in-compatiblity problems with certain graphics cards
   in the scope programs. Added a Range Bar to the Sound Graph. Added Radio
   buttons to the shell to Exit & Shell to DOS. Fixed minor bugs reported 
   to me by my users.

Version 2.7 - 12/15/90
   More bugs! Fixed several problems including problems with the Mixer
   program. Added a speed up program to go along with the slow down
   program. Added an Auto-Desk Animator/VOC file player for multi-media
   presentations. Added a command line switch to BMASTER.EXE to select the
   Sound Blaster port instead of scanning for it. Added a command line
   switch to SBEDIT.EXE to allow the passing of a file name, and made
   the temporary edit file function much faster. Added automatic detection
   of math co-processor chip and support. Tried to improve the documentation
   and also increased some of the time-outs to 25 seconds.   

Version 2.6 - 11/17/90
   Bug fix release. I found a very esoteric bug in an updated compiler
   I switched to that caused an error message when aborting a file. This
   error didn't cause any damage, but it was totally unacceptable.

Version 2.5 - 11/15/90
   Added a graphic sample editor (EGA/VGA/Mouse Req.), Hi/Lo-Pass Filter
   module and a CGA version of the oscilloscope. Added an improved math
   function library to all modules that speeded up calculations. Reduced
   the size of all modules by 7-10K each.

Version 2.0 - 10/15/90
   Added Down Sampling, BLASTER Scope and integrated playback and recording.
   Included the sample Reverser on the BMASTER.EXE shell. Also included a
   stand-alone "hi-res" sample module for fast PC's. Fixed bug that would
   not allow File Select to read root directories from floppy drives. Fixed
   a bug in Slow it Down! that caused certain files to "get stuck". Added
   support for small files with Digital Delay. Generally improved the speed
   of most functions.

Version 1.0 - 09/01/90 (officially released 09/15/90)
   First version, first release. Very well received and supported. 
