After filling out and sending my PSound 3.0 registration w/comments on the bugs
I had found, I received a letter from Customer Support acknowledging the errors
and asking for my aid in tracking them down.  "Sure, what the heck," said I as
I dutifully recorded a sequence of events that leads to the Resample bug in the
version 3.0 software.  I then sent this information to SunRize.  Well, wonder
of wonders, they sent me the updated copy of PSound for no charge.

Features/bug fixes of version 3.01 of Perfect Sound software:
  - resampling bug fixed; PSound will now resample samples >50k correctly
  - other, unspecified bugs fixed
  - numerical string requesters seem to work better
  - PD 'SOUND' program, 1990 version by R.L.Stockton, included in PD directory
  - acknowledgement that Perfect Sound software 3.0 and 3.01 do not work with
    AudioMaster II.  The ReadMe says that OXXI is modifying AudioMaster II for
    a springtime release that will work with the PSound software.

Continued problems:
  - I still can't find more information on the IFF instrument format and on
    SamplesPerHiCycle.  I am unable to get a majority of my samples to work as
    instruments in Sonix.  Does anyone from Commodore-Amiga have information on
    the IFF instrument spec. or ideas on this problem?  Help appreciated.

So, if you have 3.0 and experience bugs, send in the registration and/or a
letter demanding 3.01 (be nice about it, of course).  You should then receive
a free update (better be free, with bugs that blatant! :-)

Perfect Sound 3.0(1) can be purchased mail order for around $72 bucks plus
shipping.  If you don't have a sampler, it's a cheap, good, well-featured
package.  If you do have the hardware, look at AudioMaster II, too.
