STESOUND (V2)
    -------------

    The ATARI Falcon030 has a new soundsubsystem which can be switched into 
    an "STE-compatibility-mode" to ensure that (most) programs using the 
    DMA-sound of STE/TT will work correctly. There already exist some patch-
    programs for the AUTO-folder to select this mode so that old programs 
    can be run. But it is sometimes useful to have this possibility in a 
    desk-accessory, since there are some programs for the F030 which don't 
    reset the soundsubsystem to STE-mode.

    The accessory STESOUND (it can also be run as a program) offers this 
    possibility. Just select the entry "Reset sound" in the Desk-menu and 
    STESOUND will (re)set the soundsubsystem into STE-mode. If the 
    soundsubsystem is locked when "Reset sound" is selected, STESOUND will 
    ask if you wish to ignore that (be careful with this, since some 
    programs may crash or produce wrong output when the subsystem is 
    influenced while they are running).

    Programs using STE/TT-DMA-Sound with 6.25KHz replay-frequency will 
    never work on the Falcon, because the lowest frequency the F030 can 
    create with the internal clock is 8KHz. So don't wonder if STESOUND 
    doesn't make such programs run correctly...

    STESOUND may be freely distributed, the only condition is that both 
    files (STESOUND.ACC/PRG and STESOUND.TXT) are copied completely and 
    unchanged (archiving is allowed).

    What has changed?
    
    - STESOUND now also resets the soundmode to 8-bit stereo. The old 
      version didn't, and that caused some problems.
    - STESOUND now respects the old settings of the STE-compatible 
      frequency, so resetting sound while, for example, Paula is playing a 
      MOD-file, will not influence the replay-frequency. If the old value 
      was invalid, STESOUND sets the subsystem to 50KHz.
