You can listen to Sensorium Scan in various ways. Each piece was written with generative music software. You can listen to a single mix of each of these peices on the previous page with a RealAudio player. Alternatively, if you have a PC with an AWE32 or AWE64 sound card, download and install the Koan Player. Then, download one of the Koan/SFont files. These zip files contain both the Koan play file (SKP) and associated sound fonts (SBK).

If you don't have an AWE sound card, but an equivalent card with on board memory, or better still, a sampler, download either one of WAV.zip files. These contain both the Koan play file as well as all the associated samples. Prepare them as banks or patches, load them onto your sound card or sampler and run the Koan Player. Note, the Koan software is PC compatible only.

If all else fails, you can download all the WAV files, create your own Scan collages, or listen to them individually off this page. If you need any assistance, email the Toy Satellite studios.
