This single CD ROM MegaDisc puts more than seven hours of digitally recorded, stereo sound effects online, for use with Macintosh computers, PC computers and Silicon Graphics workstations. Let your imagination roam through this vast collection of sounds. Cars, trains, jets, animals, birds, comedy, crowds, fire, water and wind: more than 1,200 effects in all are right here - royalty free! - to make your creative vision come alive. Each sound was transferred digitally at the 16bit, 44.1 kHz CD standard specification. But, thanks to the "Aware" high quality software audio compression,
the Sound Ideas SPEED OF SOUND Sound Effects Library offers more than six times the storage capacity of standard audio CDs. It's like getting six CDs in one, yet you don't need a special CD ROM drive or special audio hardware to play it!
OnLine Search and Retrieval: Sounds can be quickly retrieved by name or by partial word searches. Onscreen display of descriptive captions makes it easy to pick the sound that matches your requirements. Doubleclicking on any file name instantly auditions it. For compatibility with a wide variety of Macintosh, PC and Silicon Graphics multimedia applications, sounds can be retrieved from the library in a choice of sampling rates (44.1, 22.05 and 11.025 kHz), resolutions (16 or 8 bits) and industry standard formats
(AIFF, AIFFC, WAV, or OMF).
