			       FAST SAMPLE 1.0

			 By Matthew Lang, March 1992

I.  About....
-------------
	Fast Sample is a sound digitizer for the SoundBlaster that samples at 
a higher sampling rate than other samplers for the SoundBlaster.  This is a 
quick program I wrote to see if it were possible to sample at higher rates 
than the included software with the SoundBlaster.  With my 12MHz AT, I can 
sample around 40kHz.

II.  Limitations....
--------------------
	This has only been tested on a Packard Bell 12MHz AT.  If you have a 
slower machine, your sampling rate will be lower.  A 386 might sample too 
fast, also.  If there is enough interest, I can modify the program to work 
with any speed CPU (I had to slow this program down just to sample at 40kHz 
on my machine.).
	Fast Sample allocates exactly 400K of RAM for storing the sample.  I 
thought this was a good number to work with, and not too big so that you could 
load into your favorite sample editor!

Other Stuff....

	This program is freeware, and the souce is copywrite by me,
