This file contains the following sections:

    1.  Mixer settings for VoiceAssist
    2.  Wave driver for VoiceAssist
    3.  Using Media Player version 3.11
    4.  Updating the Sound Blaster 16 drivers
 
1. Mixer settings for VoiceAssist

   If you are using Sound Blaster 16 or Sound Blaster Pro, note that
   VoiceAssist will save the mixer settings while you perform voice
   training. The same mixer settings will be used by VoiceAssist when
   performing voice recognition. The original mixer settings for the
   system will be changed by VoiceAssist while you are performing
   voice recognition and restored at the end of the session.

   If you are using other audio cards with the mixer settings,
   remember to set the microphone level to an optimal level before you
   perform any voice training so as to achieve better recognition. The
   same mixer settings should be set while you are doing the actual
   recognition.


2. Wave driver for VoiceAssist

   VoiceAssist should work with the wave driver for Microsoft Windows
   3.1 provided by your card manufacturer. You can use the Creative
   Sound Blaster 1.5 wave drivers which come with the Microsoft
   Windows 3.1 installation package if your audio card is Sound
   Blaster compatible.


3.  Using Media Player version 3.11

   In the Training dialog box, the Media Player commands in the
   generic templates are for the Media Player 3.10 which is shipped
   with Windows 3.0 and 3.1. If you have the new Media Player version
   3.11 (from Microsoft Video for Windows or Microsoft Multimedia
   Upgrade Pack 1.0 ) then you should remove the existing version from
   the "Included Apps" and retrain the commands using the new Media
   Player.


4. Updating the Sound Blaster 16 drivers

   This section is applicable to Sound Blaster 16 users only.

   Creative has its Sound Blaster drivers updated to give better
   quality and more application support. You might need to update your
   Sound Blaster 16 drivers if you have a SB16SND.DRV earlier than
   29th April 93.
