12<h2>Using SoundPlayer / HioSoundPlayer / Viewer </h2>
13<p>The three following system tools can be used to preview sounds on actual hardware:</p>
14<ul>
15  <li>SoundPlayer</li>
16  <li> HioSoundPlayer</li>
17  <li> Viewer</li>
18</ul>
19<p>The characteristics of each are explained below. </p>
20<h3>SoundPlayer</h3>
21<p>The CCI file includes a sound archive file and a stream file.</p>
22<p>Sounds can be previewed on a test unit alone. </p>
23<p>Since every time the sound archive file or the stream file is changed you need to remake the CCI file, this is unsuited for repeated adjusting and checking. </p>
24<h3>HioSoundPlayer</h3>
25<p>The CCI file does <U>not </U>include a sound archive file or a stream file.</p>
26<p>The sound archive and stream file is supplied from the PC via HOSTIO.</p>
27<p>The connection configuration can be [PC ～ PARTNER-CTR Debugger] or [PC ～ UIC-MIDI ～ PARTNER-CTR Debugger] or [PC ～ UIC-MIDI ～ test unit].</p>
28<p>You need some device like a PC, a PARTNER-CTR Debugger or a UIC-MIDI device.</p>
29<p>Sound archives converted by SoundMaker can be loaded and checked without restarting the HioSoundPlayer application.</p>
30<h3>Viewer</h3>
31<p>  The CCI file does <U>not </U>include a sound archive file or a stream file.</p>
32<p>The sound archive and stream file is supplied from the PC via HOSTIO.</p>
33<p>The connection configuration can be [PC ～ PARTNER-CTR Debugger] or [PC ～ UIC-MIDI ～ PARTNER-CTR Debugger] or [PC ～ UIC-MIDI ～ test unit].</p>
34<p>You need some device like a PC, a PARTNER-CTR Debugger or a UIC-MIDI device.</p>
35<p>Sound archives converted by SoundMaker can be loaded and checked without restarting the Viewer application.</p>
36<p>You can view and manipulate a variety of sound-related information, which sets Viewer apart from SoundPlayer and HioSoundPlayer. </p>
