MemSound has a deficiency :)

[mnrvovrfc]

What might be needed is to add a few parameters to the mem type for sound.

m.SoundChannels
m.ChannelSize

Then you could tell if it was 4x12 or 3x16 or even 2x24 which made up the 48 bits.

I support this. However the field name should be "generic." What if in the future there's something to do with images? In the distant future support for video... or something like that, but since video also has sound... (facepalm)

So must look for something else that could require a _MEM variable which is not multimedia...

But how many WAV files exist which have more than two channels? Which might have the Surround 5.1 arrangement? Not as many as 24-bit stereo that came with music technology magazines, that's for sure.
