Airfoil for Windows again

2011-06-29 Thread chris hallsworth

Hello all.
I have enquired with the company Rogue Amoeba about the noise that is 
overlaid on all transmissions longer than 10 minutes. You are listening 
out for a white noise type of static.

This is of course if you are using the demo.
Also to let you know I have downloaded and installed the beta of the 
next major release, version 3. So I will give feedback to them regarding 
accessibility.

Chat soon.

Greetings,

I am an XP Home user, because of this, I will await the final release of
this - see below.

This beta update is not available on the download page.
To test this new version, go to

http://www.goldwave.com/beta.php

On the site page it says:

GoldWave v5.63 Beta
Beta Version
This is a beta version of GoldWave, which means more testing is required
before it can be used for production work. Do not install this version if
you require a stable version of GoldWave. Do not contact GoldWave Inc. for
the beta key. Please read below.
Important! GoldWave v5.6X will be the last version compatible with Window
2000 and XP. Future updates will require Windows Vista, Windows 7, or later.
If you still use Windows 2000/XP and are aware of any issues in this beta,
please report them before development shifts away from those versions of
Windows.
This will be the last beta update. The next update will be a stable version.
New Features
·   Playback/Recording
This version of GoldWave contains significant changes to the playback and
recording code. By default, the new Windows Vista/7 Core Audio/WASAPI is
used. Previous versions of GoldWave used DirectX (DirectSound) for all audio
input and output. However DirectX has been the source of many problems and
has been deprecated on Windows Vista/7 where it no longer provides direct
access to the audio hardware. DirectSound support is still included as an
option in GoldWave and is used by default for Windows 2000/XP.
·   Media Foundation
This version of GoldWave uses the new Media Foundation in Windows 7 to
access system decoders to handle a wider range of audio and video files.
Previous versions of GoldWave used DirectShow to access system decoders.
That functionality has not been removed but it is used only if Media
Foundation is unable to open a file or on older versions of Windows that do
no have Media Foundation.
·   iTunes M4A
GoldWave can now open and save iTunes M4A files through Media Foundation on
Windows 7. Currently there appears to be a flaw in the way Media Foundation
handles cover art and copyright metadata. Although cover art can be read
from a file, any attempt to write cover art results in all metadata being
wiped from the file. To avoid this problem, the only metadata GoldWave
writes is text. Cover art cannot be saved in an M4A file for now.
·   Covert Art
Cover art is shown under File | Information. Click on the image to replace
the artwork with another image.
·   Open URL
A new File | Open URL command has been added to open a file directly from a
website using Media Foundation on Window 7.
·   Window Layering
In previous versions of GoldWave, windows and dialogs could appear on top of
other applications. Changes have been made to avoid that. However further
testing is needed to ensure that windows and dialogs appear correctly on top
of GoldWave's Main window and not behind it, which would make the program
appear frozen.
·   VST
The first beta version of the VST plug-in is included. However, there appear
to be numerous stability issues with VST plug-ins. Many plug-ins violate the
VST specification in a variety of ways and the specification itself has
issues.
Changes in v5.63
·   Enhanced Batch Processing window
·   Comments in Batch Processing process list
·   One click recording (Create new file option)
·   Fixes (see WhatsNew.txt)
Changes in v5.62
·   Improved ID3 v2.2 tag support (reading only)
·   Enhanced /new command line parameter
·   Enhanced CD title prefix option
·   Improved metadata extraction from iTunes/M4A files
·   New key codes for media/browser buttons
·   Fixes (see WhatsNew.txt)
Changes in v5.61
·   Improved ID3 v2.4 tag support (reading only)
·   Volume controls in Stereo Center effect
·   Stricter control of when Open URL command is available
·   Device Shared mode move to Quality list
·   Fixes (see WhatsNew.txt)
What Needs Testing
·   USB microphones (mono and stereo)
·   Very long file/path names (longer than 255 characters).
·   Batch Processing comments and new layout
·   Reading of ID3 v2.2, v2.3, v2.4 tags.
·   Reading of metadata in iTunes and other MPEG4 audio files.
·   Playback and Recording
Make sure you have the latest sound driver from the manufacturer! Using the
Update Driver button in Windows is not a reliable way to get the latest
driver. If you don't know how to obtain and install the latest driver,
please do not install the beta.
·   M4A open and save
Cover art and copyright metadata will not be supported until Microsoft fixes
Media Foundation or at least provides sufficient documentation to explain
how to write cover art to a new file without destroying all text metadata.
·   Open URL
·   Window layering
·   Stereo Center effect
·   VST plug-in
·   General overall testing and anything else 

Re: audio restoration software

2011-06-29 Thread Bardia

hello!
you can use audacity too.
but it   Diamond Cut  cost?
you can use audiograbber too
G. McFarlane skrev 2011-06-29 02:42:

Hi Dave
I've used quite a few packages for audio restoration in the past and 
each usually have their own forté. I've not tried Sound Forge and I 
know it has good reports about its noise reduction etc.
One program I like for versatility - and it claims to be the best of 
its kind - is Diamond Cut 8 (DC8) available from

www.tracertek.com
I've usec versions 5, 6  7 and have had good results. When I recently 
upgraded to version 8 it became inaccessible, but with a call to the 
technical help people, they pointed out a feature which restored the 
interface to an earlier one and therefore made it accessible again.
It has a wonderful variety of cleaners and enhancers - each with their 
own presets and fine tuning. Most of the boxes can be tabbed around 
and selections made. The latest version is slightly less accessible 
than Version 5 - you may have to use the Jaws cursor or the Window 
eyes equivalent to make some choices, but once you knowwhat you're 
looking for things do get easier. There are menus and keyboard 
shortcuts and results can be good.
One limitation I've found with it is the navigation and selecting of 
parts of files. It's great to work on a whole file and noise reduce - 
if I wish to use part of a file then I edit it to size in Goldwave 
then import it into DC8 - although it's annoying to have to do so the 
results are probably worth it.
There are one or two nice features in this program - there is an auto 
clean and enhance which works on the file dynamically as it is 
running, adjusting itself to the changes in the file. This can be fine 
tuned too.
You can also chain various effects to get  the best - they all work 
simultaneously. Also there is a great batch editor built in which 
allows all the filters etc. to be preselected and executed on a large 
number of files at a time.


When I upgraded recently, I also bought their small preamp which 
connects to the output of your turntable - it changes the inputted 
sound by applying a ria curve to get a more authentic sound. You then 
use the features in the program to clean up and enhance your file and 
reapply the correct ria curve and the sound is thought to be as good 
as you'll get at this level.
I also bouth their DVDs on a variety of subjects, in cluding audio 
theory, cleaning 78s, vinyl and other media, etc. They can be 20 or 30 
dollars each but when I purchased the 5 disks I was given them for 50 
dollars, very much worthwhile for dealing with a steep learning curve.
Some people may have other comments on this program but for my money 
it's probably one of the best in its range. I think there are good 
offers to be had on it from the website. It's a dedicated program for 
noise reduction and enhancement and with one or two other features 
thrown in.
It also has a live function, in which any input can be filterd 
immediately live.

Hope this is of help.

Subject: audio restoration software

Hi list,

I am purposefully going to ask a fairly vague question because I'd
really like to hear multiple opinions and suggestions. I'm wondering if
anyone here is involved in restoring78s and lps through software, and if
so, what software do you use and how accessible do you find it? Allow me
to elaborate on my current setup if you don't mind.

I am presently using goldwave the most but have tried audition and
soundforge. I know that jfw has scripts for sound forge but am a
window-eyes user. As far as audition is concerned, I can't figure out a
way to navigate vst plugins which audition seems to rely heavily on. So
goldwave works well and is pretty accessible. But I need more powerful
filters than the program will allow. I know that there is a pc version
of protools but that is, from what I understand, for sequencing and
creating music, not restoring it. I don't know what the pro people use,
I'm thinking of the late John R. Davies of jsp  records here, they might
still use analogue methods for all I know.

So, thoughts and discussion is encouraged on this one, I'm interested to
see what people have to say. I realize that a lot of the process has a
lot to do with finding the best source material available, i'm thinking
Mosaic Records and their ability to make the recordings of Bix
Beiderbecke into fantastically rich works of art. However, unless you
have fantastic connections, it's hard to get into the columbia or victor
vaults and use the metal masters and, in the case of paramount records
and dial, they don't exist. So, bring it on, and if anyone is interested
in discussing this with me off list, feel free to email me. I am just
eager to learn.

PlexTalk Pocket The Only One -Really?

2011-06-29 Thread Gary King
Freedom Scientific sent out a news release today stating that they will be 
distributing the PlexTalk Pocket.  Unfortunately, in this news release, they 
claim the PlexTalk Pocket is the only one that has Wi-Fi, the only one that is 
a portable DAISY recorder and the only one that has an accessible level meter.  
They seem to have conveniently forgotten about the Book Port Plus from the 
American Printing House, which also has these features.  While the Book Port 
Plus is built on the same hardware as the PlexTalk Pocket, it is using firmware 
written by APH and is sold under a different brand name.  FS should be able to 
recognize another company's brand name; they have defended theirs often enough.

I don't know if APH will challenge these claims by FS, but hopefully, potential 
customers will learn all of the facts before they make a purchase.

   Freedom Scientific sent out a news release today stating that they will
be distributing the PlexTalk Pocket.  Unfortunately, in this news release,
they claim the PlexTalk Pocket is the only one that has Wi-Fi, the only 
one

that is a portable DAISY recorder and the only one that has an accessible
level meter.  They seem to have conveniently forgotten about the Book Port
Plus from the American Printing House, which also has these features. 
While
the Book Port Plus is built on the same hardware as the PlexTalk Pocket, 
it

is using firmware written by APH and is sold under a different brand name.
FS should be able to recognize another company's brand name; they have
defended theirs often enough.

I don't know if APH will challenge these claims by FS, but hopefully,
potential customers will learn all of the facts before they make a 
purchase.

dc 8

2011-06-29 Thread Dave Bahr

Hi list,

Does anyone use Ddiamond cut 8 and/or 7.5? I'm just having a bit of 
trouble figuring out how to modify the sound once I've hit the preview 
button. I can't get window-eyes to go to the track bars andcan only 
modify things if I close the preview payne and I have the classic view 
with no quick edit on. I thought about trying to put the plugins into 
goldwave or some other program, but the presets have a .pst extension 
and I'm not sure what to do about that if they're not dlls.


so as usual any thoughts are appreciated. thanks,

--

It seems to me that freedom scientific is a little late to get on the 
plextalk band wagon anyway. they really shouldn't make claims that aren't 
quite accurate.

I just find it interesting they are doing it is all, that does bring up 1
question though. Does this mean that they won't do anything to make the PAC
Mate Omni read NLS books then? I have other thoughts about the omni,, but
probably they are for the PAC Mate users list which appears to be dead. Any
ways, I was surprised by this is all. Very interesting move.

Re: Total Recorder

2011-06-29 Thread Robert Logue
Did you purchase a key for your copy of total recorder?  It's only about 
$35!  Darn cheap.  When you consider how accessible the program is and all 
of the things it can do.  If you already have paid for a license.  Check 
with high criteria to see about getting your key if you lost it.

The Wizard is a good thing to use all right. I was a little afraid of it 
at first, because the manual says it may change some settings, even if 
you cancel. But I found out. It's pretty useful, and I'm getting a lot 
out of total recorder now.


I just discovered cue sheets. I have a favorite Internet radio station 
that presents titles. I couldn't figure out how to get it to make 
separate tracks for each song using split mode. Then one day I 
accidentally pressed control tab and found I was in the cue sheet and 
that I could manipulate songs from their and all the titles were showing. 
So I was very pleased with that

I also recommend new TR users play around with the recording Wizard. 
It's a good way to get some work done right off because the program can 
be rather daunting for some from the get go.  I believe one can access 
the recording Wizard from the tools menu, at least that's where it is in 
my version, which is 6 pro.  HTH Norma

The Total Recorder help is quite good. And there are a lot of tutorials

and the help files aren't all click this and drag that kind of 
stuff, so very useful for those of us using screen readers. Play around 
with it for a few days. Then if you need specific advice, just ask. 
It's on-topic for this list.

Hello,

I am aware that you guys have been speaking of the program Total 
Recorder
on/off.  Can someone get back to me, off of this list so that we don't 
bug
people with this subject?  I am about to get Total Recorder, and I'm a 
JAWS
12 user.  I'd like some pointers, getting started advice, etc.  I 
don't even

know if there are any tutorials on the subject.
Thanks.
Jim

Steve,

I've never had the problem, leaving TR recording, when stream restarts 
or is
restarted, has always, so far, picked up either where it left off or 
where

the stream starts.

Hope somebody else can be of more use.
