Hi Everyone,
Thanks John and Andreas for all your help. To answer your
questions about my system. On my NT box (also boots to Win 95)
I have an AMI dual processor motherboard with two Pentium
Pro 200 chips, 128MB of RAM, a CreativeLabs AWE64 sound
card and also the harddrive I use for Squeak is fairly new
with a fast seek time. Therefore, I do not think the hardware
is a problem.
I did set UseReverb := false and also used the "remark out"
method. I still had to do the:
SoundPlayer startUp; stopReverb.
to stop the reverb. I tried your suggestion of resetting the
sampling rate and I got an error message when I tried to run the
workspace. I still cannot get all the voices to play clearly
with NT. I kind of thought playing with the Buffer to fix this
problem might be a waste of time so thanks for verifying that.
I did try changing the sound card settings with NT to no avail.
Here is the GOOD news. Even though I was having the same problem
with Win95, I reset the software for my sound card. The new settings
fixed the problem and the sound from Squeak is really good. I will
just work on my sound project with Win95 and wait for 2.0 to continue
working with sound using NT.
I sort of ran into this little adventure on my way to doing
something else. I suppose I should get back to the major task at
hand.
Thanks again.
