If I use soundApp (PPC) to convert these, I get something that plays
too fast, so all I can hear is a little pop. I occasionally have had
this problem when trying to convert other old sounds as well. I assume
I need to change the sampling rate or the bit depth or the encoding or
something for this conversion. But there are many different settings
to choose from. I tried a few at random, but nothing seemed to work.
Any suggestions?
