Hi,

I'm the author of a shareware program for Macintosh that's called D-SoundPRO. It
is a sample editor, supporting AIFF files and Midi Dump Standard. I'm writing to
you because, as proud owner of a S50 (first) and a S330 (after), my program
supports also the unique feature to import sound waves directly from 3 1/2
diskettes in S50, S330, S550 format. The MIDI DUMP STANDARD supports also the
new S series. So I think it could be interesting for you to examine my shareware
product and eventually include the program in your archive.

I can send a copy of D-SoundPRO 2.3 by e-mail, or you can download it from
http://www.rain.org/~nigelsp/dsound.htm
compuserve: MIDIforum, MACFUN, Roland
INTERNET: harmony-central, info-mac (here wait for vers. 2.3)

here below I report the abstract of my program:

Thanks in advance
