1.Purpose:

3D-Audio creates high quality 3D spatial audio. You can setup a virtual scene
and animate the listener and the unlimited number of sound sources to get a 
3D spatial audio impression. You can use the program to produce special sound 
effects or mix a complete sound set together. Very impressive results can be 
achieved by setting up a virtual band e.g. a quartet with all instruments 
recorded seperately. With the program you can mix the instruments together 
with 3D spatial information for an unknown sound experience.


2.Requirements:

  __Requirements:__
  - Windows 95 or
    Windows NT 4.0.
  - Any digital audio capable sound card.

  __Optional:__
  - Microsoft DirectX3 (see help file for details!)


3.Installation:

  - Use pkunzip.exe or Winzip to extract the files into your preferred directory.
  - Create a Shortcut to 3DAudio.exe into your Startmenu.
  - Have a look at the help file, especially the section Quick start to learn
    how to use the program.
    That's it.
