I am after any help/advice about use of audio in applications. For example,
are there any standard conventions for sounds to use for events such as:

* correct
* incorrect
* forward, back, up, down

and so on.

Or is it more a case of - nice sounds for nice things, as long as you
explain them first?

[For anyone who finds themself copied in to this note (you will be BCCd) it

something to contribute - please reply to me directly if you have been sent
