How to Use :
1) Unzip and run 'setupmw.exe'

Tip: To save your music to a WAV first highlight the bars you want to save.
(You can do this by moving the pointer just below the bar numbers in
the main track window, and dragging the mouse with the left button pressed
down.) Now go the the edit menu and select "copy Bars to sample file" option.
You can also turn off tracks you dont want to hear before exporting to wav.

Review by Zenta :
Even though on the surface Making Waves looks like a poor relation to Acid, 
it actually has a few facilities that still make it worthwhile using. As a
drum loop creator it is pretty useful and with the built in ability to easily
create triplets and the ability of being able to seqence up not only samples
but midi notes and triggers, sets it asidefrom BBox, Drumstation and the like.
Its a shame it has no effects built in nor can it utilise DX plugins but maybe
that will come in a later update. Wave output could not be faulted and was
clear and accurate. All in all, a program that shows a lot of potential and
one that has a few tricks up its sleeve to keep it apart from the competition.
