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) SBC-LIB ======= (Sound Blaster Card Library Functions for Microsoft C) This is a library of Sound Blaster functions for your Microsoft C programs. At this moment, only the function are available : Card detection and Interrupt jumper detection ( See SBC-LIB.DOC in the \LIB\ sub-dir for details.) DETECT (function) ================ (Sound Card Detection Functions for Microsoft C) This is a sound card detection functions for your Microsoft C programs. It is similar to the first function in SBC-LIB, but being smaller in size, it can be used by those who just need to detect the presence of either C/MS Card (Game Blaster) or Killer Card (Sound Blaster) The only function available is Card detection. ( See DETECT.DOC in the \LIB\ sub-dir for details.) CTV-MOD ======= CTV-MOD.OBJ is an object file which is linkable to your Microsft C programs. Unlike CT-VOICE.DRV, it is a routine that accepts pure voice data, 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 5) ctv_continue : Continue the paused DMA output 6) ctv_halt : Halt the DMA output 7) ctv_uninstall : Uninstall, speaker output off ========== ************** ========
