Re: How to best or easiest way to Record Audio Cassettes to the PC?

2007-10-15 Thread Curtis Delzer
Hi, thank you for the kind words. I've done a huge amount of recording, so 
know a good bit about it. It is what you feel comfortable using, that is 
truth, if you like Gold Wave, Sound Forge, Studio Recorder ... whatever 
editor you like that is what you should use. If it is a huge project, what 
kind e.g. stereo, mono, books, music, or, all of the above? Do the end 
results demand organization into segments e.g. mp3s, cds, what? :) You can 
speed it up if your cassette machine has a feature which speeds up play back 
to dub between cassette decks on a dual cassette deck, using the 
playback machines capabilities to play the tape at a faster speed and then 
slowing it down using an editor on your computer.

Good luck, if you want I can help further.

As long as there won't be any loss of quality and it sounds like you know
what you're talking abou; then I'll try that. I just thought if I could
split and all that why not record regular tapes a faster speed to save time
(I have a lot of tapes). This project scares me. Is there anything I should
do to prepare these old artifacts for playing? Any other suggestions before
this massive undertaking?
Thanks for your help

 grin Well if you can play them faster than you need too, you can use
 your
 computer to slow them down, assuming you have the software to do it that
 is.
 :)
 Sound Forge does this admirably, and so does Gold Wave.

 1x? Do you mean I can record regular tapes at a fast speed for time saving
 or should I just dub regular tapes, 4-track or not, at there intended
 speed?
 Was that confusing?

  As to the high speed question, I can answer that one.  I am doing now.
 It
  works good, and am having no trouble with it.  I do have to add in some
 high
  frequencies after recording at higher speeds, but it is worth it in the

  Another question. If any of you use 4 track tapes is it possible to put
  these in the stereo and later reverse tracks on the right side of the
 stereo
  field and make all tracks mono Also is it possible to record at a high
 speed
  and slow down the recording for the mp3?

I can record 2 cassettes in the time it takes to play them, about 3 hours,
 reverse the right channel in about 2 minutes, change the play back sample
 rate in one second from 44,100 to 22,050Hz, select the left channel and 
 copy
 that to the clipboard, (in a minute) paste that into a mono file so it is 
 in
 the center channel (tracks 1 2 5 and 6 in that order), go back to my 
 stereo
 file, select the corrected right channel and copy to the clipboard, go to
 the mono file and paste it to the end and get in this order, channels 7, 
 8,
 4, and 3. I then, section each track to a single file by regions, (using
 either Sound Forge or Gold Wave), and all that processing doesn't take a
 half hour, start to finish, about 12 hours of listening recorded, 
 processed,
 in about 4.

 p.s.

 (you can start the recording before you go to bed at night and it's all 
 done
 in the morning, (your computer won't record more than 3 hours and about 22
 minutes continuously into a *.wave file at 44,100Hz stereo, because it is 
 2
 gigabytes. For that I use Studio Recorder.

 For what it's worth, I prefer to use the NLS player playing at 3
 and three quarters inches per second, obviously recording only
 one track at a time.  In some cases, I use an equalization plug
 in available for Total Recorder which works either in playback or
 record mode.  For me, at least, having to reverse each
 even-numbered track which one would have to do using your method
 slows me down far too much.  I realize that your mileage may
 vary.

 dub the tape at regular speedwith a stereo cassette deck. when
 dubbing library of
 congress format tapes, you will do tracks 1 and four, then tracks
 2 and 3 in
 stereo. reverse tracks 3 and 4 on the file you have recorded,
 usually the right
 channel of the stereo recording. when it is done, edit out the
 parts at the
 beginning and ends you don't want. that should do it!

2007-10-15 Thread Brett Boyer
Ye all the above. I have personal recordings on 4-track at normal and LOC 
speed. I have stereo music. So many things.
Ok so there is no loss of audio if i record at high-speed playback and slow 
it down when it's time to save. Ye all of these as far as I know will go to 
mp3 onto a hard drive. I'm woried about cd's fading after a few years. Most 
of the editing I will do in SF (got it working by the way thanks to snowman) 
had to break down and install JFW for it but it was worth it.
Anyway sorry for the rambling it's late.
thanks again

CD Burning Problem

2007-10-15 Thread Dan Kerstetter
I'm using Nero Burning Rom to burn some CD's which have tracks which run 
together--most notably, Pink Floyd and Chicago.

No matter what I do I cannot get the transitions between tracks to go smoothly. 
 I've even tried a couple different ideas in GoldWave.

I would appreciate any ideas on how to correct this problem.

Thanks.

Dan

Re: Winamp 5.5 Question

Actually, upon further examination, it seems to be a facility for storing 
audio and video files online, and remotely accessing an playing them with 
portable wireless devices, cell phones, etc.

Re: CD Burning Problem

It should work if you change the time between tracks to zero.  That is how I 
have done it in Nero and it works well.

 Hi all,
 Other friends of mine that have creative sound blaster XFI cards,
 have said that they have a compressor in them, but I can't find
 anywhere to control it, let alone enable it.  The particular card
 that i have here, is the Sound Blaster X-Fi Xtreme Audio.  IS there a
 compressor in this one somewhere?  or is it only in other cards in
 the series?  I've poked around in the audio console, looking at the
 various tabs, to no avail, no compressor to be found

I can record 2 cassettes in the time it takes to play them, about 3 hours,
 reverse the right channel in about 2 minutes, change the play back sample
 rate in one second from 44,100 to 22,050Hz, select the left channel and
 copy
 that to the clipboard, (in a minute) paste that into a mono file so it is
 in
 the center channel (tracks 1 2 5 and 6 in that order), go back to my
 stereo
 file, select the corrected right channel and copy to the clipboard, go to
 the mono file and paste it to the end and get in this order, channels 7,
 8,
 4, and 3. I then, section each track to a single file by regions, (using
 either Sound Forge or Gold Wave), and all that processing doesn't take a
 half hour, start to finish, about 12 hours of listening recorded,
 processed,
 in about 4.



 Curtis Delzer
 p.s.

 (you can start the recording before you go to bed at night and it's all
 done
 in the morning, (your computer won't record more than 3 hours and about 22
 minutes continuously into a *.wave file at 44,100Hz stereo, because it is
 2
 gigabytes. For that I use Studio Recorder.

 For what it's worth, I prefer to use the NLS player playing at 3
 and three quarters inches per second, obviously recording only
 one track at a time.  In some cases, I use an equalization plug
 in available for Total Recorder which works either in playback or
 record mode.  For me, at least, having to reverse each
 even-numbered track which one would have to do using your method
 slows me down far too much.  I realize that your mileage may
 vary.

 dub the tape at regular speedwith a stereo cassette deck. when
 dubbing library of
 congress format tapes, you will do tracks 1 and four, then tracks
 2 and 3 in
 stereo. reverse tracks 3 and 4 on the file you have recorded,
 usually the right
 channel of the stereo recording. when it is done, edit out the
 parts at the
 beginning and ends you don't want. that should do it!

 1x? Do you mean I can record regular tapes at a fast speed for
 time saving
 or should I just dub regular tapes, 4-track or not, at there
 intended speed?
 Was that confusing?

I disagree with this if you go beyond doubling speed.  I hear

  As to the high speed question, I can answer that one.  I am
 doing now.
 It
  works good, and am having no trouble with it.  I do have to
 add in some
 high
  frequencies after recording at higher speeds, but it is
 worth it in the
 end.

(OT) Accessible Cell Phone Question

2007-10-15 Thread Wes Derby
Hi All.

I know this is off-topic, but frankly, I wasn't sure which list was best to 
subscribe to to ask for help, so here it is.  If someone can point me in the 
right direction, I'd appreciate it.

Does anyone here use the Samsung A640 from Sprint?  I've been a Sprint customer 
foryears, and because we get a discount from my wife's company, didn't want to 
switch to Verizon even though I know they have semi-accessible phones.  I heard 
the podcast about the Samsung A640 on BlindCoolTech.com and went and replaced 
my phone with one.  I'd also like to hear from any users of the next model up, 
the M300, in case it does what I'm looking for...Then, I'll take this back and 
upgrade.

First Question: With the text-to-speech enabled, I notice that when I get a 
call, it only announces the number. Is there a way to set it, as you can with 
some of the Verizon phones, to announce the number AND use your chosen ringer?

Second, I notice one of my coworkers, who has the Verizon LG5200, that his 
phone will announce the caller's name instead of their number if it's someone 
in their address book when they call.  Is there a way to set the A640 to do 
this?

If the A640 can't do it, does anyone know if the M300 can?

I read the manual, and it barely mentioned the TTS.

Feel free to email me privately at [EMAIL PROTECTED] so we don't clog the list 
with this discussion.

Thanks.

Wes
