About

I got annoyed by the platinum sound set that came with OS 8. That stupid plinking sound especially. In time, I evolved my own sounds, culled from arcade games that I liked. Many of these games are long-defunct (remember CheeseToast? Glypha, HemiRoids? - hey, HemiRoids, written 1993, still runs on OS 8.6! And I stole its icon - well, it was freeware...). Put the sound set into your Sounds Sets folder, which is in the Appearance folder in your System folder. The use the Appearance Manager to choose the sound set. The sounds are mostly quiet, except for an swooshy pair that announce the arrival and departure of a disk, and a rather good 'pow' that launches applications. You can amuse yourself trying to identify them. If you have an especially sad life. This sound set is not copyright and I can accept no liability for any damage it might do to you, your computer or your pets.
