     Phonos - The Digital SoundShop, a Windows 3.1-based multimedia software 
application, is an industry breakthrough for audio-editing aficionados.  
Phonos allows you, whether audio professional, church sound personnel, 
or home computer user, to change forever the way you edit sound and/or 
music. Phonos allows you to record your selection directly onto the hard 
drive of your computer and, with ease, edit that recording in ways only
dreamt about just a few years ago.  Even if you are currently using a DAT
machine, without Phonos, edits still need to be made by splicing tape,
inserting and deleting, all manually.  Several other audio editing   
applications are currently being sold on the market, which are too expensive,
too confusing, or too basic for individual needs.  Prepackaged software with
audio cards is focused for use with that particular sound board.  Phonos, 
with all it's capabilities, is designed for use on any Windows-compatible
sound board.  Phonos is a software package that takes audio-editing a step   
further at an affordable price.  The dilemma has always been a sacrifice of
quality for cost or vice-versa.

     No more!!  Phonos breaks through this barrier.  I.Q. Soft developed 
Phonos to make audio editing an inexpensive, even fun, task, while remaining 
on the professional level.  

	  Phonos performs several tasks.  Just a few are listed below:


	*  Recording  -  You can record (8-bit - Shareware Version) live 
			 directly into your computer from a microphone or 
			 from a previously recorded tape through a line-in 
			 jack on your sound card.  Your "WaveFiles" 
			 (recorded selections) can be recorded in either 
			 mono or stereo (mono only for Shareware Version).
	
	*  Mixing  -  You can mix another pre-recorded selection from any 
		      point within the current one.  Two examples would be 
		      1) adding a drum roll to a music selection.           
		      2) adding music to a speech.

	*  Adjusting Volume  -  You may increase or decrease the volume of 
				the current selection.  

	*  Echoing  -  You can also add an echo, or reverb effect.

	*  Undoing Changes  -  You may easily revert back to a previous 
			       edit. You may make up to three edits without 
			       disturbing your original recording.

	*  Zooming  -  You may easily zoom-in on pre-defined marked areas, 
		       so that you might remove "pops", glitches, or any
		       other audio scars.


     A Phonos exclusive incorporates the concept of "ClipAreas" and 
"ClipFiles".  ClipAreas are "pieces" of your recorded selections that you 
name and save in related groups, or ClipFiles.  These ClipAreas can be 
inserted, mixed, and deleted from any combination of pre-recorded 
selections. They, themselves, can even be edited!  This gives you the
incredible ability to delete those irritating coughs, add background music,
or simply enhance a recording.  Phonos' Shareware Version allows you to
create ClipAreas, however, does not allow them to be saved into ClipFiles.
Phonos will change the way you edit audio forever!!

     If you have or are contemplating using an IBM-compatible, multimedia PC, 
and have the need for a more efficient, cost-effective way of editing sound, 
Phonos is for you.  Phonos will make any recorded audio-editing task a 
pleasure to handle.  Phonos requirements are as follows:   

   *   IBM Compatible 386-25Mhz (minimum);   386-40Mhz or higher recommended 
   *   VGA (640 x 480) monitor (256 color recommended)
   *   Windows 3.1
   *   DOS 5.0 or higher
   *   any Windows compatible multimedia sound card  i.e. Sound Blaster
   *   Microsoft Mouse or similar pointing device
   *   4MB RAM  (6MB or more recommended)
   *   120MB free hard drive space (recommended)
