First time E Prime

[matt.lenhart at gmail.com]

Hello,

Peter's reply was very helpful. I thought I would add more formal
instructions for anyone interested:

In any experiment in which you wish to present sound, the Sound Device
on the Experiment Object of your E-Prime experiment must be configured
for the same audio format as your sound files. Otherwise, a runtime
error will occur.

Please check the audio formats of your wav files. You can do this by
opening the files in Windows Sound Recorder (in XP) and, under the
File menu, selecting Properties. You should choose a format that is
directly supported by E-Prime (8 bit or 16 bit; 11025 Hz, 22050Hz or
44100Hz; stereo or mono), and all of your wav files that will be used
in this experiment should be saved in that format. Note that,
unfortunately, Windows Vista's Sound Recorder does not let you check/
set these properties, so you would need to use a third party
application in this case.

Then, open the Experiment Object (by double-clicking it in the
Structure window of your experiment), click on the Devices tab, and
select the Sound Device. If you click Edit, you will be able to see
the current configuration and make changes to match the audio format
of your wav file(s). Once the settings of your Sound Device and WAV
files match, please try to run your experiment again.


Matt
