SoundTest

A tool for testing sound localization. Uses OpenAL.

SoundTest window (reconstructed from the resource definitions in the distributed exe)

Assuming a person standing at the center, it plays a sound at the position of the button you press, letting you diagnose localization in 8 directions — front, back, left, right, and the diagonals (the description text inside the window is the original wording from back then).

No screenshot from the time survived, so this image is a restoration that re-renders the dialog definitions embedded in the distributed exe (buttons, text, coordinates) as-is.
