Hello Joe, Unsopported audio sampling rates under Windows are resampled to the nearest supported rate on the fly, distorting the pitch in some cases. Macintosh supports just about any sampling rate, including 11.126,22.253 & 22.254 Mhz.
Supported sampling rates in windows: 11.025,22.050, and 44.100 Mhz >From Director in a Nutshell p.487 Not all sound cards in windows can resample unsupported rates accurately. Todd C.

Yes, I am saying that they played poorly in authoring, and I am 100% positive that I was listening to the resampled files in SoundForge. I am using wav files, but I have used them before without this trouble. The quality is far worse than what is normally expect from 8/11Hz.

It sounded tinny, scratchy, and whistley. Are you saying that they played poorly in authoring, or just in shockwave? Were you definitely listening to the resampled files when you were in SoundForge? I think you're doing it wrong anyway. You should keep the sounds full quality in Director, and then when you publish the sounds are changed to shockwave audio. You can set the quality in the publishing settings, based on the date rate you want them to take. The sounds remain 16 bit, but can take up less space than your 8 bit 11 KHz ones do, if you set the data rate to 32 kilobit/second. -- [To remove yourself from this list, or to change to digest mode, go to http://www.penworks.com/lingo-l.cgi To post messages to the list, email [EMAIL PROTECTED] (Problems, email [EMAIL PROTECTED]) Lingo-L is for learning and helping with programming Lingo.
