Free 2.1 surround sound systems software for mac

Mute Startup Sound 1.0 is developed to be a useful tool which enables you to reboot your Macintosh without playing the startup chime. An uninstaller is included. This can come in handy for those who wish to keep their system volume turned up but do not want the loud Startup Sound to play on restart.

Haxial KDX Sound Lists Edit allows you to produce Sound List files that can be used with KDX.

To use Sound Lists with KDX Client, create a folder named "Sound Lists" in the same folder as KDX. Put your Sound List files in that folder.

Then in KDX, click Settings, and your files should appear in the menu under "Sound List".

The default set of sounds you get with Quicktime is a bit short on free-reed instruments, and in particular there is no concertina sound. This is a very high quality Sound Font in SF2 format, made from my own baritone Wheatstone English concertina (ca. 1906). It has been compressed with Stuffit, which is not very efficient, as the dedicated packaging programs (SFArk and SFPack) dont yet have Macintosh versions available. Consequently its a very big file - 7.3 Mb in size. You must be using at least version 5 of Quicktime to use it.

To use this file under OS X, unpack it and place the resulting "Concertina.sf2" file in ~/Library/Audio/Sounds/Banks
To use it under Classic systems, place it in System Folder:Extensions:Quicktime Extensions
If you want to use it under both operating systems you can put the file in the OS X location, reboot in OS 9, make an alias of the file and put that in the Quicktime Extensions folder.

You dont have to reboot, or even re-start BarFly. Choose "Add an Instrument" from the Instrument sub-menu. In the Instrument Picker dialog, the Synthesiser popup menu now contains a new synth named "Wheatstone English Concertina". Choose that, then choose one of the three instruments from the Instrument popup.

If you ever wondered how your folders would look like dressed in fur then the Fluffy Systems icon set is what you need.

All icons are aquafied and look best in 128x128 at 32bit mode.

Completly freeware for personal use.

Sound balance is a quick fix to a lesser known bug in OS X where changing the system volume rapidly using the keyboard controls causes the systems sound balance to shift randomly.

I often spent hours wondering what was wrong with my speakers as one always sounded louder than the other... heres the fix.

An example is when Im listening to a tune and enjoy a part of the song so crank up the volume quickly using the keyboard and then the tune becomes boring so I turn it down quickly using the keyboard. Others disagree but often when I do this the sound balance changes randomly.

Sound Set Scripts are a pair of AppleScripts that choose a new Sound Set on startup and turn Sound Sets off.

To install Place one in the Startup Items folder and another on your desktop.

Completly freeware.

FSSoundPlayer is designed for playing System 7 sound files.

For reasons beyond us, QuickTime refuses to play System 7 sound files on Mac OS X, and because of that, weve designed FSSoundPlayer X to fill this immense void. Dont bother resorting to classic or some other behemoth application just to play them, just use FSSoundPlayer X.
