a Ô486-66 PC should take about four times longer than the actual sound. The faster the com-
puter, the less time the compression will take.

Clicking on the OK button will start the process of compressing and building the EPROM

files. When it is complete, the program will have generated the following files:

a)

Actual EPROM files (with the FileName you gave this set and the extension of ФR01Х, ФR02Х,
ФR03Х, etc.). EPROM files are always generated in pairs.

b)

File which the label printing utility uses (with the FileName you gave this set and the ex-
tension of Ô.SETÕ).

c)

If you asked for the compressed files to be saved, a set of files that represents each of
the individual sounds in this EPROM set (with the FileName you gave this set and the ex-
tension ФC01Х, ФC02Х, ФC03Х, etc.).

Once sound files have been added to the list, you can select them individually and the program will

tell you:

a)

the type of file it is

b)

the number of channels (1=mono, 2=stereo)

c)

the number of bits of resolution

d)

the sample rate

e)

sample length

You can select for each individual file whether they will be compressed, and whether a silence

threshold will be used to remove all the sound that is below a certain level. Depending on your sample,
this can save a great deal of EPROM space. If the threshold is set too high, the sample will sound Ôchop-
pyÕ as the repeater turns on and off. If the threshold is set too low, then you wonÕt achieve the space
savings you might otherwise.

Once generated, the EPROM files can be burnt into Eproms using any commercially available

EPROM Programmer. They are installed in the following order:

If you want to print labels for the EPROM sets generated by the compression program, you can use

SNDLABLE.EXE.
