UTILIZING DIGITAL AUDIO COMPRESSION UNDER
WINDOWS
At this point in time Microsoft is in the early stages of supporting
various compression formats for waveform audio under Windows.
An update to the multimedia standards was released that defines
the methods of passing data about compressed files as well as a
preliminary list of recognized compression formats. However, due
to the fact that Antex is the only manufacturer to offer multiple
compression formats today, there has been a lack of motivation for
software developers to create applications that take advantage of
digital audio compression. As a result, there are currently no
Windows applications that can demonstrate the full capabilities of
Antex digital audio hardware.
We have provided a Windows demo, ANTEXDEM.EXE to allow
you to access the extended compression functionality of the Antex
adapters.
