So how does this software end up with the coveted bold red text at the top of MacUpdate's list at the end of the day? It has a really poor rating yet other software that rates much higher and has more downloads than this doesn't make the cut...

Our Hot Picks are picked by the staff. Additionally, you may be confusing the version 6.0+ rating with the overall rating, which is 4/5 stars.

$20 for a screensaver/visualizer? I don't think so, even without the yearly renewals. Adding $15 a year on top of that earns the coveted raspberry award - PFFFFFT.

Yeah, I mean the built in visualizer works great, for the rare times I use it.

Not nearly as interesting as SoundSpectrum's G-Force but also ruined by their
$15 yearly upgrade tax. Sorry, it's a no go for me. $15 per year for updates forever after? NO WAY!
%20, or $30 for the Platinum edition plus the yearly $15 tax? I think not.

Hey guys I hear ya, if you have an older Mac! you begin to worry that a newer version won't work. I've learned to burn older DL files, SoundSpectrum doesn't keepan archive page. Right now I'm on a Slot Loading iMac, I was lucky enough to have DL files for G-Force v3.01 and whitecap 4.7.4


Moral is save those files

Dear Ray,

Due to a hard disk going down, I am looking for:

Mac OS 9:

WhiteCap_474_Classic.sit
WhiteCap 4.7.4 for iTunes, Audion and SoundJam

OS X:

WhiteCap_474_iTunes_pkg.sit
WhiteCap 4.7.4 for iTunes (Installer for Panther)

WhiteCap_474_iTunes.sit
WhiteCap 4.7.4 for iTunes (No Installer)

WhiteCap_474_Audion.sit
WhiteCap 4.7.4 for Audion

If you know where these might be archived, it would be a great help...

Andy, I can't find anything with the download or on the SoundSpectrum website that state what the "required graphics hardware" are. What are they?

You're not the only one who'd like to know that info.
Why not post that issue on Soundspectrum's Forums?

Expected version 5.0.3, but 5.0.2 arrived. The access to the menu choices was not intuitive, but I figured it out. The description of the effects of the numerous choices is not obvious by their titles, so easily getting to an appropriate on-screen help file is in order .. even the spartan "Press H for Help" in the start-up splash screen is easily ignored ..

Well, tried v5.02 and was informed that that it can't be run on my computer because it lacks required graphics hardware.
Apparently, Whitecap now needs greater resources than the latest version of G-Force, which runs just fine on my 17" Powerbook.
Ah well, sometimes life's a bitch, ya know? Sigh......
