This answer may be too simple, but it seems to me that mac soundfiles are already playable on the Soundblaster. All you have to do is slap the header on the beginning of the file. With a SB, you run VOC-HDR, and it will do that for you. Just make sure you know the sample rate of the file first. I suggest using Remac to play around with the speed, and when you know it, run VOC-HDR. Then you can VPLAY the file. Hope this helps... Ethan Rasiel @ CMU (Pittsburgh)
