Re: What would be the stream address for TapinRadio?
Hello, If you go to: http://radio-locator.com/info/KHID-FM You'll see, along with other information about the station, an audio feed. Right-click on the URL, copy it to the clipboard, then paste it into Tapin. Unfortunately it looks like you'll have to do this each time you want to listen, as they use a form of stream authentication.

Re: Foobar?
Casey wrote: Hi can someone please post how to make hot key or short cut keys for foobar. Open the Preferences dialog with Control+P. Press K to get to Keyboard Shortcuts in the tree view. You'll then see the following controls: - A list of defined hotkeys and their actions; - Add/Remove buttons; - a tree view of actions you can assign hotkeys to divided into categories plus an edit field to filter these actions; - a hotkey field where you press the keys you want to be assigned; and - a Global hotkey check box which controls whether the hotkey should take effect when outside the foobar2000 window. To add a new hotkey, for example X to play as in Winamp: 1. Activate the Add new button. 2. Shift+Tab back to the list of defined hotkeys and you should be focussed on the new entry you've just added. Depending on which screen reader you're using, you should hear something like: not set; Global: no; Type: not set; Action: not set Every time you press the Add new button, the newly added unassigned entry is focussed automatically in the list so you don't need to repeat this step for every ke you add once you've got to grips with the layout of the Keyboard Shortcuts screen. 3. Tab past the Add/Remove buttons and the filter box and in the tree view of assignable actions, navigate to: [main] Playback. Alternatively you can type playback in the filter box and then select Play. 4. Tab once to the hotkey field — this field isn't correctly labelled so you will actually hear a description of the chosen action, in this case the description will be: Starts playback. 5. Press the letter X. 6. Activate the OK button to close Preferences or the Apply button if you want to add more hotkeys. 7. When you've added all the hotkeys you want, add something to your playlist and try them out. Hint: there are a lot of actions by default, and any plug-ins you install can also add actions to foobar2000. This allows you to create a very powerful keyboard layout. For example, unlike in Winamp, you can add different hotkeys to jump back and forward by different lengths of time. One other thing to keep in mind: Unlike Winamp, foobar2000 actually has a pretty standard, accessible user interface, and you will need to use the arrow keys to navigate your playlists, the media library if you choose to use it, etc. Thus, it's best not to assign any actions to these.

Re: Foobar?
Alexandra Grünauer wrote: Is it possible, like in Winamp, to set a hotkey to jump to a certain time, like pressing ctrl+j in Winamp? foobar2000 doesn't have this functionality built in by default, however you can install the Seekbox plug-in and assign a keyboard shortcut to it. Get it from: http://www.foobar2000.org/components/view/foo_seek_box I'd also like to know weather there are keys for moving forward and backward in a track, which would be the left and right arrow key in Winamp. foobar makes no assumptions about what keyboard shorrtcuts you may and may not want, so the only ones it ships with as standard are things like Control+O to open a file. You can follow my instructions to add whichever hotkeys you would like; take a look through the tree view of assignable actions to learn what is possible. To quickly answer your question, yes, you can assign some keys to jump forwards and backwards through a file. And another question: Is it possible to save the settings i.e. the assigned short keys and load them into another version of Foobar on another machine? Yes it is. If you're running an installed copy of foobar2000, you will find a file called Core.cfg in %appdata%\foobar2000\configuration (paste this into the Run dialog to open the folder). If you copy this file into the same location on another computer, all your foobar2000 settings, including keyboard shortcuts, will take effect on that computer. -- James Scholes http://twitter.com/JamesScholes

Accessibility of Spotiamp (new Winamp-style Spotify client for Windows)
Just in time for Winamp's untimely demise, Spotify has announced Spotiamp, a Spotify client for Windows built by one of its engineers. It's a small tribute to honour the great legacy of Winamp, the company says, and lets you play your music within the comfort of everybody's favorite jukebox app. - Source: The Verge http://www.theverge.com/2013/12/22/5235456/spotify-debuts-spotiamp-app-winamp-streaming Spotiamp Accessibility Screen reader: NVDA (Next branch) I extracted spotiamp.exe from the portable archive and ran it. When you first launch the app, the login dialog appears. This is completely accessible with labels for the two text fields (not that you'd need them). Your username and password (the latter encrypted) are stored in your config file (spotiamp.ini); you are not given an option to change this. Once you've successfully logged in, the Spotiamp main window is brought into focus. Screen and object view, as well as the NVDA OCR add-on, fail to get anything useful from this screen. According to the Spotiamp website, there is also a button in the main window to access your own Spotify playlists. I haven't found a way to accessibly activate this yet. There is a Winamp-style main menu, even if it is sloppily implemented. To access it with NVDA, use object navigation to find the System menu and right-click it. This contains the program's limited list of settings and reveals some hotkeys. From this menu and my own observations, here are the useful hotkeys that work in the program: Ctrl+L - Switch Account Ctrl+S - Search Z/X/C/V/Space/Arrow keys - Same functions as in Winamp Ctrl+P - Seems to hide (not toggle) the playlist view that opens when you perform a search Ctrl+V - Paste album/playlist/track URIs into the main window for playback The search dialog is accessible. It has tab auto-completion and thus you can't navigate to the Search (default) and Cancel buttons. These have hotkeys, however. The text which is filled in by auto-completion is read when Tab is pressed. Pasting Spotify track, album or artist URIs into this dialog results in a blank playlist*. *Update: You can paste URIs directly into the main window simply by pressing Ctrl+V. Pasting a track, album or playlist URI will play the content straight away, while artist URIs don't trigger any apparent change. The playlist view, as you would expect, displays the list of search results. Object navigation is again useless here. Screen review sees a list of partial track names and durations, but routing the mouse to one and left/right clicking does nothing. To start playback after performing a search, press Enter. It's probably best to close the playlist view with Ctrl+P after doing this. Some notes: If you perform a new search while a track is playing, but don't press enter in the playlist view, the results from that new search will be queued anyway and your current playlist replaced. Some hotkeys, as well as Alt+F4, do not work in the playlist view. First letter navigation doesn't work in the playlist view either.

If you were looking to save some money, I'm sure you could put something together using freeware like FFmpeg or other less user-friendly tools, but DVD Audio Extractor ties it all together in a convenient, easy-to-use package. As for alternative, similar applications, I honestly haven't tried any, but nor have I felt the need to so make of that what you will. The only feature I wish DVD Audio Extractor had was the ability to name and tag individual titles, which would come in useful when ripping box sets, but it's no great hardship using something like Mp3tag to get the job done afterwards.

Re: Help needed with last.fm
Brett Boyer wrote: Ok cool. So can you give me aquick breakdown on the difference between the two? No problem. Spotify is purely designed and marketed as a music streaming and playback service. Not only can you play tracks, albums or discographies from their vast online library, but you can also add your own local music collection and use it as your media player. It has features such as playlist management, the ability to queue tracks, a crossfader, etcetera, as well as the ability to scrobble to Last.fm. In contrast, Last.fm is, at its core, a music recommendation and statistics service and social network for music lovers. As I wrote about in my last message, you can't choose to play a full album or specific tracks on-demand as you can with Spotify. Last.fm's library of streamable tracks is also much smaller, however it's database of artists, albums, songs, genres, tags and music events is huge and that's why it works so well. Unlike Pandora, everything is user-contributed, so the more songs get scrobbled and the more users use the service, to more data they have to work with.

Re: Help needed with last.fm
You misunderstood what I was saying. My point was that as a streaming service primarily, Spotify has a much larger library of streamable tracks than Last.fm. Last.fm has quite a vast selection, yes, but I was making a distinction between streamable and non-streamable tracks. Last.fm is, in my opinion, better than Pandora at recommending new music and helping me discover it on my own through manual browsing because of the huge amount of user-contributed content that is added, through scrobbling and wiki submissions, everyday. So you can be recommended artists and tracks even if Last.fm don't have them available to stream. That is an advantage it has over Pandora. I can't really compare Pandora and Last.fm's library of streamable music, as not living in the US I don't use Pandora that often. When I did try it, I found that a lot of the music it was recommending were artists popular in the North American market, and not a lot of it was to my tastes. But as a user of both Spotify and Last.fm, I can say with certainty that Spotify's catalogue is much more extensive, which is useful when Last.fm don't have tracks to stream. -- James Scholes http://twitter.com/JamesScholes To unsubscribe from this list, send a blank email to: pc-audio-unsubscr...@pc-audio.org

Re: Help needed with last.fm
There seems to be some confusion here about Last.fm features and which ones can and cannot be used with Winamp, so let me try and clear it up. Scrobbling: Scrobbling is the act of submitting the tracks you play in Winamp or the media player of your choice to Last.fm so that they show up on your profile. This data is used at the very core of Last.fm, it's what makes the service work. Submitting the songs you play on your computers or other devices is what allows the site to recommend you new artists, albums and tracks. It also provides you with quite a nice platform with which to track your listening habbits. You can scrobble with the official Last.fm Scrobbler, which last time I checked was not accessible, or by using a plug-in for your media player of choice; there is one for Winamp, foobar2000, etcetera, and you can also scrobble from within Spotify if that's your thing. Last.fm Radio: This is the portion of the Last.fm service which allows you to stream tracks from their online library. You cannot, I repeat not, stream individual tracks or albums on-demand as you can with Spotify. The radio service is designed to play either a selection of music that you like, music that Last.fm thinks you'll like, or music that your friends and people with similar tastes to you like. Without using a piece of 3rd party software as a proxy, you cannot play these radio stations in Winamp, however the playback controls on the website are accessible and the music you play in the Flash player will be scrobbled to your profile. Hope that helps, and I'll chime in again if there's anything else people don't understand about the service. I've been a long-time user of both Last.fm and Spotify, so am quite well-aquainted with them. -- James Scholes http://twitter.com/JamesScholes To unsubscribe from this list, send a blank email to: pc-audio-unsubscr...@pc-audio.org

Re: Spotify versus Last FM
I am getting sick and tired of people comparing these two services. At its core, Last.fm is a recommendations engine. It takes note of what you listen to and then suggests other artists, albums or tracks that you might enjoy. In that respect, it is similar to Pandora. It is not at all similar to Spotify, which is a music streaming service first and formost. Yes, you might be able to listen to music through Last.fm, but can you listen to a band's entire discography? Can you create a playlist of your favourite country artists or tracks? No, because that is not what it is designed to do, a point driven home by the fact that Last.fm streams are only in 128Kbps MP3.

Re: new site
There is no need to choose the Play option from a track's right-click context menu. If the search results list is populated, simply pressing entter once you've moved from the search field will play the first result. Previously, Samuel Wilkins said: Hello, Spotify is not new service. It's a music streaming service, and it has been available in the UK for 2 years or so. It is a piece of software that you can download and use to listen to music on. It was only recently launched in the US, and that is because the record companies were wary of the legal implication. The free service only allows you to liven to the same track 5 times, and I believe only allows you to be on there a certain amount of time per month. There are two subscription services, the only difference between the two is that with premium you can listen to an unlimited number of tracks and make offline playlists, whereas with limited you can only stream tracks. I have been using it for some time and it is accessible to a degree. If you want to search for a song, you have to go into the edit box and type in what you want. After pressing enter, you need to shift tab and the screen reader will not speak. You need to press the context menu key and press down arrow to play and then enter. The song will begin playing and it will come up in the title bar and if you use the read line command. When you use your arrow keys, your screen reader will not be able to read the list. I have written to them about this issue, but they sent what looked like an automatic email response to me.

Re: Finding an actual DVD with audiodescription
First, I think you're all missing the Audio button on your DVD player remote controls. This button, when pressed, will switch between audio languages for every single DVD on the planet, so if the DVD has audio description, that's how you can find it without using the menus. There are no exceptions to this rule. Secondly, as the audio description for the Harry Potter DVD's is produced by a UK company (ITFC), it stands to reason that yes, you can only purchase described copies in the United Kingdom.

Re: Finding an actual DVD with audiodescription
When I said that there were no exceptions to the rule, I was referring to the DVD's this method of enabling audio description will work with, rather than the DVD players which have such a feature. Although, saying that, every single DVD player I've used has had this button, or similar, on the remote control, even the tiny DVD player I once used when traveling. Perhaps you're correct that television/DVD player combos don't have such a method of easily switching audio languages on the fly. Previously, Brett Boyer said: I don't believe this is a standard button on remote controls. I know especially for tv remotes there are not many that have a language button. bb Brett Boyer Audio Production and voice over http://brettboyer.voices.com - Original Message - From: James Scholes ja...@jls-radio.com To: PC Audio Discussion List pc-audio@pc-audio.org Sent: Monday, July 18, 2011 3:02 AM Subject: Re: Finding an actual DVD with audiodescription First, I think you're all missing the Audio button on your DVD player remote controls.

Re: converting a file
I'm not sure what codecs/codec versions Mediacoder actually uses (not sure if they publish the information on their website), but the Audacity developers make no secret of the codecs/versions that are used by their software. Plus I trust the integrity of FFmpeg to decode files properly. I'm not a fan of Switch for the same reasons; you have no control over the encoder used, settings, etc. For batch conversion, I actually use dBpoweramp Converter, which has a whole host of codecs available for it, but to my knowledge, video files are not supported so Audacity comes in useful. Previously, Alexandra Grünauer said: I completely agree with you! Do you know if Audacity uses the better codecs? It just seems more complicated to install those plugins and to handle them, if you, say, just wanted one file converted.

Re: Help with mp3tag
Hi Don, To achieve the results you require, follow these steps: 1. Open MP3Tag. 2. Open the File Export... dialog (control-E). 3. Tab to the New button and activate it. 4. Type a name for your new export configuration and click OK. 5. The new configuration file should open in your default text editor. Select all of the contents and delete them. 6. Copy the two lines below and paste them into the file: $filename(txt,utf-8)$loop(%_path%)$num(%track%,2), %title%, %artisst%, %composer% $loopend() 8. As you can see, the fields will be comma-delimited with one track per line when you export your track list. Make any required changes to the layout of the file or the list of fields and save and close it. 9. In the Export dialog, set the filename and click the OK button to export using your new configuration (it should be automatically focused in the list of available configurations). Hope that helps. Previously, Donald L. Roberts said: I downloaded a program called Mp3tag which I wanted to use to Export the I D 3 tags on some mp3 files to a text file. It exports to .csv files which are essentially text files, so this is not a problem. However, there are facilities in this program which permit the user to determine which tag fields are exported and the specific order in which they appear. I can't figure out just how to configure these options. All I wish to export are the track number, the track title, the artist, and the composer, in that order. I therefore would like to make contact with anyone familiar with the Mp3tag program to give me some pointers. Also, if someone has a suggestion for a different program which can accomplish the same thing which will work on either Windows 7 64-bit or XP, , please let me know. Thanks in advance for feedback.

Re: FYI foobar and winamp blog
Hi Barry, First, I'll start with the ones that are definite yes's: 3. The ability to tell the player to stop playing at the end of the current track or a selected track further along in the playlist. 4. The ability to play the last ten seconds or so of a track without needing to specify the time. (plug-in needed - http://skipyrich.com/wiki/Foobar2000:Preview) 5. The ability to jump to a specified time in a track. (plug-in needed - http://www.foobar2000.org/components/view/foo_seek_box) 6. The ability to move forward and back by 5 second increments in a track by the use of arrow keys or similar. 7. The ability to read the sample rate, bit rate and number of tracks of a file. 8. The ability to modify ID3 tags. 9. The ability to cross fade tracks (I know this can be done with Foobar). 10. The ability to equalise the output volume of files. Now, for the ones which I'm not too sure about: 1. The ability to search for a file in a playlist and move it to immediately after the currently playing track. (there is a playlist search function that works well, however I'm not sure how easy it is to queue search results after the currently playing track) 2. The ability to locate a file with Windows Explorer and insert it into the playlist immediately after the currently playing track. This can be done with Winamp although how to do it is not immediately obvious. (queuing songs from Windows Explorer is definitely possible, however once again I'm not sure about having songs queued in a certain order. Perhaps you could try the same method you use with Winamp with Foobar if it is a universal Windows Explorer trick?) Previously, Barry Chapman said: I have been a long time Winamp user, but have been reading the recent discussion on Foobar2000 with interest. I would consider changing to Foobar if it can do all of the following, which are possible with Winamp. The inability to do them would be a show stopper for me. 1. The ability to search for a file in a playlist and move it to immediately after the currently playing track. 2.

Re: FYI foobar and winamp blog
Open your WinAmp bookmarks (in WinAmp, naturally) and save them as either an M3U or PLS playlist. Then simply load the playlist into Foobar. Previously, Casey said: Hi okay okay what about if you have book marks from winamp? Can you take that winamp books folder and put it in foo bar to use them to place your internet streaming radio stations to play in foo bar and how do you get at them just so you can play with t? Casey On 4/19/2011 8:08 PM, David Truong wrote: Hi, Let me say that I was a heavy user in Winamp and looked at Foobar ages ago and wasn't impressed with it. However, I must admit after reading the recent messages on Foobar, I have taken another look and well, I have ditched Winamp for good. That's how much I am impressed with Foobar. In my opinion the sound quality is so much better. Everything is configurable and accessible. The fact you can make up your own status line makes it worthwhile alone as it is a cinch to script for such things as reading the elapsed time and time remaining of tracks with just a press of hotkeys etc. Nearly every thing Foobar can do you can create a shortcut key to it and make them global if you want to. In the foobar version I looked at ages ago, making your own shortcut keys was not accessible but that has changed and is fully accessible. There is so much more to this program than I have outlined here. Oh I have to also mentioned that it is dam responsive which was something that Winamp wasn't at times. The only thing I wish Foobar had is a plug-in to provide time marking features. Perhaps that can be scripted in time or I might find that plug-in in the future. But yeah, I don't know what gives with Foobar and Window Eyes though. There is a problem reading the list of tracks in the play list. NVDA and Jaws don't have this problem. David Truong.

Re: Reaper Multi Track recording software
I just clicked the link here and it works fine, but if you go to http://www.cucat.org/class_notes/Thursday%20chats/2011/ the Reaper tutorial/introduction is the last one on that page and is called 20110408 Intro To Reaper.mp3. In regards to your query about documentation, a lot of the Reaper manual is useless for blind beginners as ReaAccess (the plug-in I mentioned earlier) changes many of the hotkeys and when using a screen reader many of the procedures to accomplish the basics are slightly different. That audio file should hopefully get you up and running, however if it does not, the ReaAccess website (http://www.reaaccess.com) features details on how you can join a mailing list specifically to talk about the use of Reaper with screen readers. I'm sure people will be happy to help you on there. Previously, Mac Norins said: That link did not work either, which leads me to believe that something may be wrong with the settings, in my I.E.!

Re: How to find an audiodescribed version of a dvd using a PC?
How you find and select the audio description track fully depends on the software you're using and how you want to watch it. For instance, if you wish to rip the AD track into a standard audio format and store it on your computer, you might use DVD Audio Extractor, in which case you would choose English for Visually Impaired as the language before ripping. If you just want to watch the film straight from the DVD itself on a computer, you'll need software to play it. Windows Media Player and PowerDVD spring to mind, however the number of software applications available to play DVD's is so vast that you would need to choose one that you liked, and then someone could help with language selection to enable audio description. Chances are that this process would be accessible, but as I say there are too many different applications to give clear instructions on just one. If you want to watch the film with AD on your DVD player, some people will tell you to select the appropriate option in the DVD's inaccessible menu system. However, all you have to do is simply start playing the film (usually the very top option on a dVD's menu) and press the audio or audio language button on your DVD player's remote control until you hear audio description.

Re: Downloading mp3 files, changing to wave files for a standard audio cd.
Just a note - ExpressBurn and CDex will burn MP3 files to standard audio CDs just fine. Converting MP3 files to WAV is known as transcoding, a process where you convert a lower quality audio file format to a higher quality one. An MP3 file is compressed, and cannot be decompressed. So while WAV files that were recorded/ripped as WAV will sound better than their MP3 counterparts, a WAV file converted from an MP3 file will sound exactly the same as the MP3 file but have a larger file size. To sum up, converting MP3 to WAV is completely pointless. Previously, Vinny Samarco said: Hi, I am wondering why I am not being successful in this venture. I have some mp3 files that I am asked to put on audio cd in standard format. I take the mp3 files, download them, then I use goldwave to save them as wave files to play on a standard cd player, I also split the file into tracks. When I go to burn these onto standard audio cds they won't play, and I can't figure out why not. I have made sure that the files were wave files at 44100, 16 byt. and yet the results will play on some mp3 players, but not standard audio cds.

Re: Downloading mp3 files, changing to wave files for a standardaudio cd.
Brett is correct. Audio CD's do not store WAV files. When you burn audio files, whether MP3, WAV, FLAC, OGG or any other format to an audio CD, they are written to the CD, and CDA files are also written as place holders so that CD players, computers and other devices know where to find the tracks. That's why you must go through the process of ripping a CD to store the tracks in audio files; it's not enough to simply copy the CDA files onto your hard drive. This analogy also works in reverse; writing a bunch of WAV files to a CD doesn't make it an audio CD, nor does it make it playable on standard CD players. Thus, my original point still stands - converting MP3 to WAV is absolutely pointless. Previously, Brett Boyer said: cd players do not play wave files so putting wave files on a cd will get you nowhere. You must burn them as an audio cd which would result in file names ending in CDA. You can't copy files to a cd and then expect them to play on a standard cd player. bb Brett Boyer Audio Production and voice over http://brettboyer.voices.com - Original Message - From: Vinny Samarco vin...@hughes.net To: PC Audio Discussion List pc-audio@pc-audio.org Sent: Monday, April 11, 2011 10:51 AM Subject: Re: Downloading mp3 files,changing to wave files for a standardaudio cd. thanks, but I have been asked to make standard cds from these mp3 files.

Re: To all of you Total Recorder aficionados out there, a puzzle for you
You don't have to accomplish this through Total Recorder. Just open Windows Volume Control, and assuming you're running Windows XP, check the box to mute the Line In. By default Volume Control shows playback controls, so muting the Line In will only stop it being played back. In other words, it won't affect your recording at all, and you can get on with using your computer as you normally would. Previously, Larry Higgins said: Well, I guess I should really say that puzzle is mine. Hopefully somebody can help me restore harmony between me and TR. Just a little bit of background. I had a nearly fatal accident with my computer at the end of March of the previous year. No need to go in to all that, except to say that it became necessary to rebuild my computer from the ground up, software wise. Yesterday, after all that time, I needed to schedule and record a radio program from my stereo receiver, using the linein to my soundcard. That part went fine, but the problem is what follows. The problem is simply this. I can no longer get TR to mute the sound coming into the linein when recording. This used to allow me to record from my receiver, allowing me to do any other work without interference from what I am recording from the external source. I have scoured every dialog box for any remedy, and just can't find one. I remember there being a monitoring option that one could check or uncheck in a previous version, and when unchecking that box, that, at least as far as I can remember, allowed me to record linein in the background, but now I can't seem to find anything remotely relating to monitoring, unless it is preview monitoring, and that doesn't seem to help. Please, please, don't get this issue confused with hearing speech through my soundcard going to my linein recording. I have that covered, no problemo. If I can further clarify the issue, please let me know. I guess I can always find something to do other than use my computer during these times, but would like to once again have the option of computing in silence.

Re: Hope for Pandora
The author of Hope, i.e. Christopher Toth, writes Qwitter Client, a hugely successful and widely used Twitter client that interfaces with your screen reader. Not sure if you're a Twitter user yourself, but if you are, you have undoubtedly heard of Qwitter. If not, visit: http://www.qwitter-client.net to check out the Qwitter Client website. I can say with 100% certainty that this software works as claimed. HTH. Previously, Adrian Spratt said: Dean Martineau's current newsletter indicates that a software application named Hope provides access for visually impaired people to Pandora, a service I'd like to use. I looked at the readme file for Hope, which looks promising. Then I googled for consumer comments on how effective Hope actually is, but without success. The results I checked, including a Fred's Head entry, all parrot Hope's readme intro. The creator of Hope is charging $10, which I don't begrudge if his program works as claimed. Has anyone on this list tried Hope? does anyone know anything about the creator and his/her reputation for writing safe and dependable software? Thanks.

Re: accessible mixers
I found the Fasttrack Ultra interface very susceptible to USB bus noise. That maybe just my experience; I was running it on a laptop not really designed with audio gear in mind, and I do use an M-Audio PCI card in my desktop machine and it works brilliently, so there's no doubt that M-Audio make good gear. If you're working on a desktop, I'd recommend PCI every time. Previously, Steve Matzura said: Behringer makes some very nice hq but reasonably priced mixers with lo noise floors and clean audio from front end to back. Of course, if you want something heavy-duty that'll last you well into the next century, unless they change the electrical specs or something, then go for a Mackie. The Onyx series are very nice and sturdy--the only non-metal parts on 'em are the knob caps and the rubber-clad side rails. But be prepared to pay double what you'll pay for a Behringer. Regarding the interface, spending a hundred, hundred-and-fifty, dollars for a Fast Track Pro or anything similar is not such a bad thing. It doesn't have a lot of I/O, but if you'll be using a mixer on the front end and a direct audio feed to your PC or an analog feed to some theater gear on the back end, you could do lots worse.

Cables Needed for new Audio Setup
Hi everyone. I'm new to the world of audio recording, production, studio equipment, etc. Its the hardware side of things, or specifically cabling, that's confusing me today. I don't have a super advanced or professional set up, as this my first go at anything pro-audio-related. I have recently purchased a Yamaha MG166C 16 channel mixer, and an M-Audio Delta 44 PCI audio interface. I also have a more basic, generic USB audio interface that I will be using for media playback. I only need 1 microphone input at the moment, and 2 line inputs from external devices. I am slightly confused as to what cables I will need to set all this up, so have detailed what I want to accomplish below. I'm having a hard time understanding the difference between TRS and TS connectors, as well as balanced and unbalanced signals. So thanks in advance for any help anyone can offer. What I want to accomplish: - Dynamic microphone on channel 1 (already set up with correct cable) - Audio from an external device patched into mono channels 3 and 4: for this, I assume I need either a stereo 6.3mm to dual mono 6.3mm TRS cable, or the same but with a 3.5mm stereo plug for more consumer-grade devices. However, does the cable need to be balanced, or unbalanced? It will only be running to devices extremely short distances away. - Audio from a digital AV receiver on mono channels 5 and 6: The AV receiver has RCA phono outputs, so for this I guess I need a dual phono to dual mono 6.3mm TRS cable? Again, should this cable be balanced or unbalanced? - Output from a basic audio interface on stereo channel 11/12: The interface again has RCA outputs, so I think I need a dual phono to stereo 6.3mm TRS cable? - Outputs of the Delta 44 coming in on stereo channels 13/14 and 15/16: For this, am I right in thinking I need a dual mono TRS 6.3mm to Stereo TRS 6.3mm cable? - Outputs of the 1/2 group and 3/4 group buses on the mixer to the inputs on the Delta 44: I'm guessing here that I need a dual mono TRS 6.3mm to dual mono TRS 6.3mm cable? I could not find any of these at DolphinMusic or DigitalVillage, so would 2x mono TRS 6.3mm to mono TRS 6.3mm cables work? - Finally, the output of the stereo L/R bus to the basic audio interface: The interface has RCA inputs, so do I need a dual mono 6.3mm TRS to dual phono cable (the same type of cable that I think I need for the AV receiver)? Again, thanks in advance to anyone who can offer any help with this; none of the cables will be running over long distances (3m at the most). -- James Scholes -- Contact Information E-Mail: ja...@jls-radio.com mailto:ja...@jls-radio.com MSN/Windows Live Messenger: jamesscho...@msn.com msnim:add?contact=jamesscho...@msn.com Skype: james.scholes skype:james.scholes?add AOL Instant Messenger: jamesscholes000 aim:addbuddy?screenname=jamesscholes000 Jabber: jamesscho...@jabber.org Social Networks Facebook: jamesscholes000 http://www.facebook.com/jamesscholes000 Twitter: JamesScholes http://twitter.com/JamesScholes Last.fm profile: jamesscholes000 http://www.last.fm/user/jamesscholes000 www.JamesScholes.com http://www.jamesscholes.com -- To unsubscribe from this list, send a blank email to: pc-audio-unsubscr...@pc-audio.org
Basic Soundcard
Hello, Can anyone suggest a cheap soundcard, either USB or PCI (not Firewire), that would be suitable for playback of basic system sounds (my screen reader, system notification sounds, output of programs like Skype, etc)? I've just taken delivery of a new Yamaha mixer and Delta 44 audio interface, and for obvious reasons, don't want to use the Delta for misc. system audio. My on-board card doesn't sound particularly pleasing, and the other USB interface I have here isn't that great either. -- James Scholes -- Contact Information E-Mail: ja...@jls-radio.com mailto:ja...@jls-radio.com MSN/Windows Live Messenger: jamesscho...@msn.com msnim:add?contact=jamesscho...@msn.com Skype: james.scholes skype:james.scholes?add AOL Instant Messenger: jamesscholes000 aim:addbuddy?screenname=jamesscholes000 Jabber: jamesscho...@jabber.org Social Networks Facebook: jamesscholes000 http://www.facebook.com/jamesscholes000 Twitter: JamesScholes http://twitter.com/JamesScholes Last.fm profile: jamesscholes000 http://www.last.fm/user/jamesscholes000 www.JamesScholes.com http://www.jamesscholes.com -- To unsubscribe from this list, send a blank email to: pc-audio-unsubscr...@pc-audio.org

Re: The Zoom H1 audio recorder
The PCM-D50 is fitted with 4 GB of internal flash memory and a Memory Stick Pro-HG Duo^(TM) slot. To be fair, if you thought the noise floor was too high on the H1, then either you have a very special purpose for it, like recording speech in super quiet environments, or you've wasted your money because you don't understand that 99% of sounds you capture are loud enough to mask the sound. And if they're not, use an expander/gate on your recording afterwards. The H1 is not designed for the same applications that the PCMD50 is, but that's not to say it can't do a damn good job. And as you said, for $99, not only can you honestly not get anything better, but you'd be a fool to suggest that a $99 piece of kit with no menus is up to the same standards of a menu-driven, $600 recorder like the PCMD50. With the Sony recorder, or any other recorder with menus but no speech, you have a hell of a lot more to remember than sample and bit rate. For a start, you need to remember where those settings are in the menu system, never mind how to set them once you get there. So I don't see it as a floor of the recorder, as only the DM4, DM520 etc from Olympus overcome memory problems by providing speech feedback. Previously, Dane Trethowan said: Yeah but correct me please about a few issues that the Sony machine has, for example can it only use memory stick? If so then I'm not particularly interested in that. As the review states on the H1, the noise factor of the Zoom H1 is only noticable in very quiet environments and you can hear this in the review itself so given all that? Well I reckon $99.0 U.S. is an absolute bargain. Admitedly you'll need a reasonable memory to remember what the format and sampling rate is set to but most people I know have good memoriessmile.

Vocal Microphone and Soundcard Recommendations
Hi all, I plan to purchase a Yamaha MG166C mixer, and a M-Audio Delta 44 soundcard. For obvious reasons, I don't want speech from my screen reader, and system sounds, to go through my production card (the Delta). My on-board soundcard places too much emphasis on low-end frequencies, and playing anything through its outputs sounds less than desirable. What soundcards are people using for system sounds, speech, etc? My experience has been that speech, especially Eloquence, does not sound great through pro audio cards. Secondly, what microphones would people recommend for simple vocal applications (podcasting, recording, internet broadcasting, etc)? I'll be using this microphone with the Yamaha mixer I mentioned above, and I'm currently using a cheap Behringer dynamic (the XM8500). -- James Scholes -- Contact Information E-Mail: ja...@jls-radio.com mailto:ja...@jls-radio.com MSN/Windows Live Messenger: jamesscho...@msn.com msnim:add?contact=jamesscho...@msn.com Skype: james.scholes skype:james.scholes?add AOL Instant Messenger: jamesscholes000 aim:addbuddy?screenname=jamesscholes000 Jabber: jamesscho...@jabber.org Social Networks Facebook: jamesscholes000 http://www.facebook.com/jamesscholes000 Twitter: JamesScholes http://twitter.com/JamesScholes Last.fm profile: jamesscholes000 http://www.last.fm/user/jamesscholes000 www.JamesScholes.com http://www.jamesscholes.com -- To unsubscribe from this list, send a blank email to: pc-audio-unsubscr...@pc-audio.org
Re: Some Questions About Ripping And Tagging Files
I don't rip a lot of CD's, but when I do, I use Exact Audio Copy, with the FLAC encoder, with tons of configuration changes, command line arguments, etc. My point here is that EAC is very advanced. It is used by both legal and non-legal music release groups to rip music, as its quality cannot be beaton. The focus is not, therefore, always on userbility, but on functionality. CDex is the oppositte. Its not very widely regarded as being very good at ripping, however this is slightly untrue. CDex is no way as good as EAC, but its acceptable. In short, if you are ripping a CD, and you know exactly what quality settings, what drive settings to use, and other such advanced settings, then go for EAC. Setup your compression, select all the tracks on the CD, then use the copy selected trakcscompressed option. You can tag them later on. If you aren't concerned with fantastic output, and getting the absolute most out of your rip, go with CDex. The upside to CDex is that you can pretty much put a CD in the drive, run it and rip. On Thursday, June 25, 2009 12:44 AM, Pam Drake said: Hello All! I am attempting to rip and tag files for air play on a couple of Internet radio stations. I have permission from the producers of this local , which will be marketed through ITunes and Amazon.com, and is also available on a website with so-so accessibility to the cd store. I am running a Fujitsu C1410 laptop computer with Windows Service Pack Three. I have tried both Exact Audio Copy and a beta of CDEx, and I have a few questions. They have me stymied at the moment but I am sure with a little clarification I will be able to rip my first cd and send the files legally to the stations I have in mind. Now, my questions: First, with regard to Exact Audio Copy: is it necessary to copy and burn files to a cd? I really would prefer to have them on my hard drive, as I already own a legal copy of the cd in question. Second, in both programs as I attempt to label the files with the correct audio tags I am asked to enter numbers or integers. I am not sure what numbers or where. I Do not have the ISRT numbers available to me, and as these files are going to be aired on not-for-profit streams where nothing is sold it is my understanding that this information isn't needed. The producers are going to be selling this album on ITunes and Amazon so they have the correct information. Do I need this? What do they want, and how can I edit the title and track information such that it no longer reads only track number and file information? I have all the titles, and this cd is not yet available in any of the databases, having been released less than three weeks ago, June 11th, to be exact. I am also wondering whether I have the correct Beta version, CDEX 1.70 Beta Two which has a release date of January 4, 2009. In the documentation for CDEX 1.70 Beta Two there is information regarding the possible need to install additional drivers. Is it possible that I need to install these? Finally, I have Window-Eyes 7.0, JAWS 10.0, and System Access. Is there any one of these apps that might give more accessibility? I will keep working on this but would appreciate any information on the program, especially these issues that don't seem to be easy to find in the help, at least not for this person who gets more out of verbal explanation.sigh Thanks very much in advance.

Hi Donovan, BearShare got taken down by an anti-piracy group a long while back.

James Scholes http://www.jls-radio.com -Original Message- Sent by Gary Schindler on Friday, February 06, 2009 at 03:17 PM there is a little switch on the right side of the IMic which is used for Mic or Line input. look beside the headphone jack and you should find it. it isn't a lever as such, but feels like part of the sound card. it slides back and forth.

Re: Recording from external sources
Just change your default output device in control panel, no need really to be messing around with jfw.ini at all. -Original Message- From: Peter Alan Smith psmith.harv...@gmail.com To: pc-audio@pc-audio.org pc-audio@pc-audio.org Date: Thursday, January 15, 2009 04:12:01 PM Subject: Recording from external sources Greetings fellow audio lovers. I am new to the list and I have a question for those of you who use Jaws and Goldwave. I have been successfully recording from external devices, mostly cassette players, into Goldwave via an external device called an Inport made by Xitel. Wires run from my tape deck into the small Inport device, which contains its own sound card, then into a USB port on my pc. To avoid having the sound cards clash, I would have to add a new line of text to the Jaws ini file that told Jaws that the synthesizer port was my pc sound card. I then had to check the use default only box in the sounds control panel. I would restart the pc, start up Goldwave, start recording on a new file, hit the play button on the external device, and get an mp3 file for my efforts! This was cumbersome, especially having to worry about clashing sound cards. But it worked for 2 years. Well, I recently upgraded from Jaws 7 to Jaws 9. Now every time I go through this procedure, I get a Jaws application error. It knocks Jaws out so that I can't get more details as well. The last thing I hear is Jaws application error, a message is being sent., then the sound is gone! Once in a while, I manage to save some recorded sound in Goldwave, but it contains that bonking noise that you hear when you have done something Windows doesn't like. Something is definitely up. I have tried work arounds such as turning off Jaws once I hit the play button on the external device, but to no avail. Things seem to go fine right up until I send sound in from the external device. I have tried every permutation I can think of; making sure the sound cards are either the one in the pc, or the Inport one in Goldwave and the control panel. I am getting to the point of giving up. I wonder if there is a better way of doing this. Surely there must be other folks using Jaws, Goldwave, and recording sounds from external devices. What do you all use? I have tried googling key words to see what others might use, but no luck so far. Rick Harmon, the Blind Geek Zone master, recommended that I contact the PC Audio group. You all sound very knowledgeable and I really hope that you can point me in the right direction. Perhaps there are ways that avoid using more than one sound card? Let me know what you think.
