1st Logo (Early 1990s-1997)

Variant: On the beginning of tapes, it takes place on a light blue/dark blue gradient background.

FX/SFX: The text emerging from top to bottom.

Music/Sounds: A rising synth flourish, ending with a synthesized pulse. This is actually stock music from the royalty-free library "The Mix", owned by Sound Ideas.

2nd Logo (1997-2001)
