WinGroove

Hey, for those of you that know WinGroove, could you please give me a hand? When I use WinGroove as my driver, it sends the music to my speakers at an incredably high level. This causes a great ammount of distortion. Is there any way to customize Wingroove to take care of this? Or is there something that i need to do in noteworthy? Noteworthy is not the only program that i run into this problem with, but it is the only one without volume controls to lower output levels.

thanks,
Jason

For WIN95, create a shortcut for your volume control or mixer and put it in your start up menu. Then task-switch (alt-tab) to flip over to your mixer and set the volume.
I asked for a volume control on the wish list, but on WIN95, there is one on the task bar. But WIN95's is slow.
For win3.1, open the mixer or task-switch to the program manager and pick the group that has the mixer, adjust the volume, then switch back.

The best thing to do with WinGroov is chuck it in the bin -
see the problems I posted about it to this forum in October.

ok.. so I put it away in the roundfile, but what do I substitute it with? The prog greatly improves my computers sound, and my computer, if unaided, frankly, sucks.

What sound card are you using?

Nigel, October's Forum notes are not available in the archive. I've downloaded WinGroove with a view to using it, but your note has me concerned. I have a 486DX4 100Mhz machine with 20 Mb of memory. I'm operating under Windows for Workgroups 3.11 and I have an SB16 soundcard. I have the latest NWC V1.50. I do not have a midi-card. Could I ask you to reiterate your issues with WinGroove ? and let me know what I need to do to 'hear' the sound of NWC files to some degree of accuracy (at least to hear flutes differently to the piano! and not like a "comb and paper"). If it is because I have not set up NWC or the Sound-card properly I would appreciate some guidance.
