I was browsing the web when I came across a page that instantly reminded
me of those VORTEX 3-D audio disks of old.. <giggle>

http://www.apple.com/pr/library/1999/jan/19spatializer.html

Apparently, Apple is licensing some software that will allow playback
of audio through 2 speakers as if it were coming from the standard
5 speaker surrond setups..  

Oh well, enough of my strange nostalgia..

Hi,
As the author and creator of :"those VORTEX 3-D audio disks of old.. <giggle>"
I was rather pleased and surprised to see the Nostalgia post you made.  I guess
Steve got wind of my  VAMPS, NTV and MegaMOD jukebox disks from the IIgs days
and decided to play around with the concept for a new twist on sound from
Apple. Maybe my sending him the url of all those GS JukeBox Vortex 3D disk
archives, put some ideas into his sly, dollar spatialized and old pirate styled
brain.  I made a very tidy monatary gain with all this anyway, so I'm well
pleased with the arrangements of it all now. It will be interesting to see what
they come out with it all too.  Let's just hope the remaining Beatles don't sue
them again over these sound recording abilities from Apple again - like they
did when they helped with kill the IIgs' future.
 
Oh well, like you said at the end of your post - enough on this old sound
nastalgia stuff.

Cheers & Best Wise Wishes - (giggle :),
Dr. Tom
