Well thought-out, a great deal of effort has obviously been put not only into the programming but also into the presentation. When the video cassette-style box is opened, you can see what these flashy packages are made for. Not so with many other large boxes where you have to send out a search party to find the software.
Here there is the program cassette, a complementary blank tape and comprehensive 34-page manual.
There are 100 pre-defined sounds already built-in and you may use these or alter them to your heart's content by changing a set of parameters. The sound effects are excellent and you can get some pleasure out of just listening to them and playing about with the variables. However, the real beauty is using these sounds in your own programs.
