Download 1 is SoundApp 1.5.1 for use with Mini vMac emulating a Mac Plus.
Download 2 and 3 is SoundApp 2.7.3 for 68k in English and French.
Download 4 and 5 is SoundApp 2.7.3 for 68k in German and Japanese.
Download 6 and 7 is SoundApp 2.7.3 for PPC in English and French.
Download 8 and 9 is SoundApp 2.7.3 for PPC in German and Japanese.
Notes: System requirements for the foreign language versions of SoundApp should be roughly the same, though you'll want to use (in this case) a German or Japanese version of Mac OS for them to work properly. The Japanese version is by Naotaka Morimoto, and the German version is by Oliver Schubert (AKA xhelmboyx).
There are two more foreign language versions of SoundApp 2.7.3 out there, French and Dutch (by Philippe Bonnaure, and Jeroen Feyaerts, respectively),upload done.
CompatibilityMinimum Requirements:
Mac OS 7.0
Sound Manager 3.1
QuickTime 2.0 (2.5 recommended)
QuickTime 3.0 required for MIDI playback via GS Instruments.
* It's a safe bet that at least a 68020 should be used.
Comments
I had some free time so i made a clean up as sugested by IIGS_User it's now easier to find
all 68k vertion together and all PPC together and change the description to fit changes.
would be easier to read if splitted into separate entries for 68k and PPC versions.

@BreakinBenny: There's code for that available, if you know what to do with it.
I upload my copy of SoundApp 2.7.3 68k and PPC in French and a few pics.
Man, I wish there was at least a program that could also convert compressed sound ('csnd' resource fork according to ResEdit).
Added version 1.5.1 which works with a Mac Plus. I used this back then to convert Windows WAV files to SSW 7 sound to embed in my HyperCard stacks with ResEdit
Edit: Sorry, due to external robots changed 'xxx 7' to 'SSW 7' - IIGS User
This one was the first mp3 player i have... on some old LCIII... it could even extract snd resources from any program or archive... i use this for the edition of several sound resources on the marathon 1&2 music files... in a few words, it is flexible enough...
