- This file is README.1ST. It contains information about
- WaveSong and how to install it. Please read this file
- first!
-
- WaveSong is not free.
- If you obtained this program on a try-before-buy basis,
- be aware that if you continue to use this program, you
- MUST register within thirty days of use.
-
- WaveSong is a nature-sound generator program for
- Windows 95 or NT4.0, using the digital sound output
- capabilities of your sound card. Sounds produced
- include: thunder, crickets, waves, rain, and wind.
- This application is useful for generating soothing
- background sounds to mask out unwanted noise and to
- promote relaxation.
-
-
- I. Distribution Files
- ------------------------
-
- You may have received WaveSong in one of two forms:
-
- A) You have the program in the form of .ZIP file,
- WAVSNG24.ZIP
- from a bulletin board, Internet, CDROM, etc. You
- should know how to unzip the file with PKUNZIP.EXE.
-
- B) You have a floppy disk with several files, most in
- compressed format.
-
- If you have (A), please make sure the ZIP files are unzipped
- in a single directory before installation.
-
- II. Installing WaveSong
- ---------------------------
-
- The WaveSong file set includes a program named SETUP.EXE
- used for installation.
-
- If your distibution files are on a floppy disk in drive A:
-
- 1) Click on the "Start" button on the taskbar.
-
- 2) Click on the "Run..." item in pop-up menu.
-
- 3) In the command box type
-
- A:\SETUP
-
- (If your floppy drive is different than A:,
- substitute the appropriate name.)
-
- 4) Click on OK
-
-
- (If you unzipped the zipped file into a temporary directory, for
- instance, C:\TMP, then do the same but with the command
- C:\TMP\SETUP )
-
- The setup program will ask you where you want WaveSong installed.
- You may install it anywhere, but we suggest using a separate new
- directory to keep WaveSong files separate from other programs.
-
-
- III. Getting started
- ----------------------
-
- After installation, go ahead and click the Play button. Listen
- for sound output and adjust the Volume slider control.
-
- If you don't hear any sounds, try these steps:
-
- Use another Windows application, such as Media Player which comes with
- Windows, to play a .WAV file. If you don't hear any sounds,
- chances are your sound card is not set up correctly. Refer to your
- sound card documentation. Also, double-click on the speaker icon
- on the taskbar to bring up the Windows mixer controls and adjust volumes
- as needed.
