This package includes only two Turbo Pascal sources (For TP 6.0 and above!) showing how to control the fm- and digital-sounds of Sound Blaster soundcard (or compatible). I wrote these pieces of source just because I wanted to learn programming of SB. After that I decided to wrote an article of Sound Blaster programming and I sent these sources with it as a example programs. Because I'm not sure about releasing of my article, I created this "little" tutorial package. Be free to learn Sound Blaster programming with this tutorial! EXAMPLE1.PAS Shows how to use fm-sounds of SB/AdLib EXAMPLE2.PAS Shows how to use digital sounds of SB 1.2 Information about Napalm Software Napalm Software is a team making shareware products, demos, games, utils, anything... :) If you would like to have more information about us, try to find somewhere Napalm Software's information package.
