Embedding a Wave File

When you embed a wave file, you load a copy of the wave file in
Wave'OLE and transfer it to an application such as Write that
supports Object Linking and Embedding (OLE). If you edit the wave
file in Wave'OLE, the wave file in Write will not be affected because
you no longer have any connection to the file in Write.
You can embed a wave file using two methods:
K From a document (Write for example).
K From Wave'OLE.
To embed a wave file starting from Write:
1. Open the Write document where you want to embed a wave
2. Select Insert Object from the Edit menu.
K Select mono for one sound channel and stereo for two
sound channels.
Mono is suitable if you want to perform voice recording,
while stereo is more suitable for music recording.
K If you do not select a compression method, select the 8
bits option for normal recording and 16 bits for high-
quality recording.
If you select a compression method from the Compression
drop-down list box, the 8 bit and 16 bit options will be
grayed out.
K Select 8 kHz or 11 kHz frequency for voice-quality
sampling rate, 22 kHz for tape-quality sampling rate, and
44 kHz for CD-quality sampling rate.
