I've spent the past week or so hard at work developing this little utility with which to edit the sound effects for Keen1. And, finally, here it is.
It still takes a bit of messing around to get anything intelligible, but at least it's far easier and more interesting than tweaking a bunch of hex values.
Not only can the sounds be edited, but they can also be resized and still work in-game.
Although self-contained and 100% usable for Keen1 modding, this is a relatively early version. I'm still looking for ways to make it more intuitive and quicker, and there will eventually be support for Keen2-3, and possibly the PC speaker sounds in Keen4-6.
Enjoy.
Btw, would it be possible, via some sort of tasty little patch, to externalise the Keen2-3 sound data from the executables, as the status screen was for Keen1? Then I can include complete support for these games in the next version.

It *might* be possible -- it depends on exactly how the sounds are stored in Keens 2-3. It might be difficult, though...Btw, would it be possible, via some sort of tasty little patch, to externalise the Keen2-3 sound data from the executables, as the status screen was for Keen1?
