I have it in mp3 also, but windows needs a wav file, right?

anyway, here it is in .wav

Sorry it took me so long, I have 2 midterms tomorrow back to back starting in about 7 hours and I've been .... gasp.... studying.

MUST HAVE HIGHER QUALITY!

er wav is the highest quality you can get.

I think the point they are trying to make is that it was uncompressed into wav after having been something else of low quality...

There are also different qualities within the WAV standard :)

I think the specific "thunderclap" WAV OP is referencing came with the a "Plus!" pack theme, not a SB software CD. I remember it too, my brother had it on a P166 laptop so there would be no reason for him to have installed SB software.

My THX was a 64kbps mp3 before I uncompressed it back to .wav :eek:

I had some that were 128 and such, but that one sounded the best of the lot.
