     The third extravaganza from the JiNX Crew. This one is our finest
     yet. Although it may not be our biggest or longest production, it
     was produced 100% by JiNX. Own 2d Graphics system (no PTC hehe),
     our own sound system, our own network system, our own JpEG Decoder,
     our own compressor, and encryption algorhythm. Its all by us. 100%

                   features the JiNX Sound System V1.0e.
         This sophisticated sound system has been created primarily
   for demos, with a module playing facility for Impulse Tracker modules,
   as well as external sound effect mixing (although this feature was not
   used in Repertoire).    In addition, dynamicly adjustable low-pass and  .
    high-pass filters, and reverb, set this sound system apart from its    :
         rivals.  It gave us the edge we sought for sound and light        |
