[*] FinderSounds Appearance CP Sound Set

Back when I got my first Mac, an SE running system 6, I was given a
public domain disk distributed by Rutgers University that contained a
Control Panel called FinderSounds which has a creation date of May
1990. The Soundmaster Control Panel was more popular, but I was
always partial to the sounds provided by FinderSounds. Leap forward
almost a decade and Apple is supplying us with Sound Sets in the
Appearance Control Panel, and I wondered, "Do you suppose those old
FinderSounds would sound halfway decent if the resources were copied
out and pasted into a copy of an Appearance Sound Set?" Sure enough,
it worked.

There are more sounds in the modern version, so in some placed I did
some SoundEditing of a Platinum sound or a FinderSound, and in a
couple of places I left the Platinum sound intact, but all of the
original FinderSounds have a home now in this FinderSounds Soundset.

Public domain / freeware.
