This is simply a user friendly frontend to an existing program called "mac2snd" by Robert Hood. With this version you simply drag a Macintosh sund (designated by a .macsnd extension) from the Workspace to my applicationĀs window. Once you have done that press the convert button to convert the Mac sound to a NeXT sound. This program automatically writes the new sound file in your current directory. It writes a new file with the same name as the Mac sound except it replaces the ".macsnd" with the standard ".snd". NOTE: I make my program require a ".macsound" extension so that a standard can be set. NeXT sounds have ".snd" extension, TIFF files have ".tiff" extension and now when I look at my browser I will know what sounds are Mac sounds and what sounds are NeXT sounds. I have included buttons so that you can listen to the sound after it has been converted. If the converted sound is to slow or to fast then press the "SampleRate" button and convert the sound again.
