- SOUND BLASTER SOFTWARE DEVELOPER'S DISK
- ========================================
- This disk consists of routines and library functions for the
- Sound Blaster Card. Software developers are welcome to incoporate
- these routines into their programs. Creative Labs, Inc. will not
- charge any licencing fees for the usage of these routines as long
- as they are used for programs that supports the Sound Blaster or
- the Game Blaster.
-
- Software developers may create voice files using the VOXKIT disk.
- Compression and silence packing of the voice files are provided
- in the VOXKIT.
-
- You may use the the JOINTVOC.EXE program to joint voice files
- together.
-
- If you wish to import voice files from other system, you may use
- the VOC-HDR.EXE program in the VOXKIT disk to add a header to it.
- After this the file can be loaded by VOXKIT for further use.
-
-
-
- CT-VOICE DRIVER
- ---------------
- The CT-VOICE.DRV is a program loadable voice driver that allows
- your program to play digitized voice recorded from the VOXKIT.
- It handles the memory page-break interrupt and other low level
- tasks for you.
-
- TEST-CTV.EXE is a sample program which calls the CT-VOICE.DRV to
- input and output sound.
-
- (See CREATIVE VOICE DRIVER Literature for details)
-
-
- CHK-VF.EXE
- ----------
- This program allows you to check the structure of a voice file.
- It tells you the size, number of blocks, sampling rate and packing
- schemes used by the voice file.
-
- eg.
- >CHK-VF marker.voc
-
- (See "Creative Voice File Format" literature for detail of structure)

- without any header nor compression scheme.
-
- The following functions are included :
-
- 1) ctv_detect : Card detection
- 2) ctv_speaker : On/Off DAC output to speaker
- 3) ctv_output : Output 8-bit data by DMA to DAC
- 4) ctv_pause : Pause the DMA output
