Short:        IFF-8SVX to 8SVX, RAW, AIFF, WAV, VOC converter
Author:       Daniel Westerberg
Uploader:     Daniel Westerberg (daniel onyxsoft se)
Type:         mus/misc
Version:      1.4
Architecture: m68k-amigaos >= 2.0.4

This program has an easy-to-use GUI (MUI) and also a
file list if many files is to be converted in one go!

This is a sample-converter which convert and resample
IFF-8SVX samples to:
* IFF-8SVX     - mono/stereo
* Raw          - mono/stereo, 8/16 bit, motorola/intel
* Audio IFF    - mono/stereo, 8/12/16 bit
* RIFF-WAVE    - mono/stereo, 8/12/16 bit, PCM
* RIFX-WAVE    - as RIFF but in motorola-format, rarely used
* Creative VOC - mono/stereo, 8/12/16 bit, PCM  v1.20

The resampler can currently do (in HiQ or Fast mode):
* Nothing
* Half the frequency
* Double the frequency
* Resample to a custom frequency
* Resample to 11025 Hz
* Resample to 16000 Hz
* Resample to 22050 Hz
* Resample to 32000 Hz
* Resample to 44100 Hz
* Resample to 48000 Hz

Changes:
~~~~~~~~
* NEW * Now 8SVXtoXXX can be used from CLI.

* FIX * Fixed reading of file headers. It could easily crash before
        if a file wasn't as expected.

* FIX * Raised the internal stack a bit to make it stable on OS4.

* NEW * I finally made a guide :)

v1.31
* I have made some mistakes in the WAV-header. The blockalign-field was
  not set f.ex. WAVs should work better on Windows Media Player now.
  Thanks to Roy Buckley for reporting the problems and help me debug!

* The program always saved prefs when exiting, now it only "uses"
  (saving to ENV: instead of ENVARC:) the prefs when quitting.

* Added menu options for explicitly saving the prefs and loading
  the last saved.

* Fixed a couple of button-ghosting bugs. F.ex. Format was not
  editable the way it should have. It should only be selectable
  for 8-bit RAW. All other formats are defined to one or the
  other. I have seen no program that uses 16-bit unsigned, therefor
  is this not editable even with RAW.

v1.3:
* Fixed a long standing bug which made the header say that
  samples that was resampled was a few bytes longer or shorter
  than they actually are. This should now have been fixed!

* Now you can resample to any frequency, not just the pre-defined.

* Fixed a bug in the WAV header.

v1.2a:
* Fixed a bug when converting some stereo samples.

* Minor cosmetic changes.

v1.2:
* I have made it possible to control most of the program using the
  keyboard.

* Fixed the ghosting of some cycle gadgets that was ghosted when
  the shouldn't and not ghosted when they should.

* I gave the program a menu and the option to get to the MUI settings.

* The Output File now changes the extension when cycling through the
  save format.
