INTRODUCTION
Start, Look, and Listen
Audio Animator's software has a Mac-like interface that
makes the program's use extremely intuitive. If you've
experienced the
GS'
Finder or if you've ever used a Macintosh
before, you'll be familiar with many of the menu options and
how to use them.
You should already be comfortable with such phrases as
"Click and Drag," "Pull-Down Menus," "Select," "Eat all your
vegetables," "I have to wash my hair," and "Can you hold?"---.
If the first three terms sound foreign to you, you'll need to
refer to "Using the Mouse" in the appendices.
About the Audio Animator Disks
The startup disk contains the GS/OS files necessary to run the
program and access your disk drives. The entire GS/OS
system is not included. We recommend that you see your
Apple dealer for upgrading to GS/OS if you don't have it
already.
The second disk, Audio Art, contains several digitized sound
and MIDI files we've created for you to experiment with.
Running the Software
I3efore you run the software, do the following:
1)
Make a copy of the Audio Animator disks.
Use either System Utilities (included on your
GS
System disk),
the Finder, Filer or your favorite copy program
to
make the
copies .
• :. Note: From here on, when we refer to the Audio
Animator disks, we mean the COPIES you have just
made.
2)
Copy the program to your hard disk, ROM
disk or RAM disk if you plan to run it from any of
those locations. For instructions on loading the
program to your ROM disk, RAM disk, or hard disk
see Appendix
A.
3)
Format several disks under ProDOS so you'll
have a place to save your work. (Audio Animator
does not support formatting.)
