Sorry, I can't answer the question.  It stirred up a related question:
What about SoundMaster?  I remember people using it on various mac's around
here, getting wonderful stuff like theme from StarTrek on startup, Dragnet
for uninitialized disks, etc.  I didn't have the use of a mac at the time,
so I didn't pay much attention.

Then I got an SE.  So I got SoundMaster from somebody, installed it, set
the sounds from ControlPanel, restarted - nothing.  Why does it not work?
System 6.0.2 is installed - I suspect this has something to do with it.  Is
there a newer version that works today?  I seem to have v1.1 23Mar88.  But
I really want a vomiting sound on disk ejection...
