On The Beach
Does the Australian Radio serial of this novel still exist? If so, can it be obtained and for what cost? Andrea -- Though no one can go back and make a brand new start, anyone can start from now and make a brand new ending. - Carl Brad
RE: On The Beach
Yes the complete series of 26 half-hour episodes exist, not available yet. I would keep an eye on the Grace Gibson online shop as I suspect it will become available in future releases.

Re: my initial impressions of the turtle Beach Audio Advantage SRM
Hey Chris. Just wondering how you are getting along with that turtle Beach Audio Advantage SRM. I haven't sent for one my self as I didn't feel I needed it now. But, I'm really curious about controlling the 10 band equalizer. Is the software accessible? Bob - Original Message - From: Chris Skarstad toonhe...@verizon.net To: pc-audio@pc-audio.org Sent: Friday, May 15, 2009 10:51 PM Subject: my initial impressions of the turtle Beach Audio Advantage SRM A while ago, I had asked about buying an external sound card, and I eventually chose the Turtle Beach Audio Advantage SRM. This card is tiny, weighing in only a few ounces, and it kind of looks like a cigarette lighter at first glance. It has 4 audio jacks 2 on each end of the card, the ones I've paid the most attention to are the microphone, and the headphone jack, which are on the same end. This card also sports 2 stereo mics, a green LED light that blinks when audio is present, and stays solid when none is playing. So if you have some usable sight this might take a bit of getting used to. I have a set of speakers hooked up to the card which handles my music and windows sounds, and I have Window-eyes 7.01 routed to my laptop's internal Sigmatel card. So I now have 2 sets of speakers instead of one.This allows me to have more control over the volume of each one. I have 2 volume controls to use now, but if I want to hear the speech over the music more, it's easier for me, because I can keep the music at the same level now. As far as instalation goes, I had another friend of mine helping me, and we learned a somewhat valuable lesson that I'm sure most people probably know either through just being technically savvy, or having the same experience we had. If you're going to install this card, be sure to hook the card *directly* into your laptop or desktop's USB ports, do not use a USB hub. If you do, the driver's won't install properly, because the card can't draw enough power. The card is recognized, but not to the same point as it would be via a regular straight USB connection. So make sure you have a free USB port handy. To install it, we first inserted the cd that came with the card. If you're using window-eyes, you'll have to use your mouse pointer, numpad plus pressed twice, and then you use your numpad 2 and 8 keys to arrow down to where it says setup. At that point, press your left mouse button and the software will install. Then, when prompted, please insert the cable into the card, and the other end into the USB port. You may lose speech after pressing yes at this point, but this can be fixed. It's a good bet that the card is now active, so what you'll need to do is plug a pare of headphones or speakers into the headphone jack. If you hear speech, you're good to go. The headphone jack is located on the top right handside of the card, you'll feel a circular sort of socket or plug with ridges, and just to the right of that, that's your headphone jack. The jack to the left of that one is your microphone jack. When you plug a headset mic or any other mic into that jack, the stereo mics on the card itself are muted, so for the least confusing results, I would say you might want to have something plugged into that jack all the time. Initially, the software tried to install the necessary driver for the card to function properly, but I had to reboot a couple of times to get the process to work properly. Hey, I'm new to this and it was a learning experience. So the driver installed and all, at this point, seems to be working well. As for the SRM control pannel program, it is definitely not very speech friendly, not without a lot of mousing around. and even then, some of the screens look mighty confusing. So the best way to customize things is to probably stick to using the regular Windows volume control. That will allow ou to set things how you want them. Overall, I'm very pleased with the card! The install was a bit touch and go because, as I said we weren't sure why things weren't working but after I remembered that I had been using a hub, and I plugged the card directly into my laptop USB port, that's when things vastly improoved. Hope this helps anyone looking to buy a card like this. Hopefully it'll help you avoid any pitfalls along the way and you'll have your new card up and running in ono time!

Re: my initial impressions of the turtle Beach Audio Advantage SRM
Thanks Chris. So, this card does not plug directly into the USB port on your lap top right? I was hopeing to find a solution that would not involve having another USB cable hanging from my Dell.

Re: my initial impressions of the turtle Beach Audio Advantage SRM
Hi. No, the card itself does not have any USB ports on it, you have to use the provided USB cable with it. As for a PCI card? I'm really not sure but I'm thinking either Turtle Beach or Creative will have a card that will do that for you. In another e-mail, you asked about it driving the internal sound card, and I don't think it will. If you want your software speech to come out of your internal card in your computer, what I did was I bought an extra set of speakers and plugged them into the laptop, and I set Window-eyes so that it comes out of the sigmatel card. All other sounds are routed to my Audio Advantage. So right now, my laptop's internal Sigmatel card handles software speech, and everything else goes through the audio advantage. I hope that makes sense? Thanks. At 10:04 AM 5/16/2009, you wrote: Thanks Chris. So, this card does not plug directly into the USB port on your lap top right?

At that point, press your left mouse button and the software will install. Then, when prompted, please insert the cable into the card, and the other end into the USB port. You may lose speech after pressing yes at this point, but this can be fixed. It's a good bet that the card is now active, so what you'll need to do is plug a pare of headphones or speakers into the headphone jack. If you hear speech, you're good to go. The headphone jack is located on the top right handside of the card, you'll feel a circular sort of socket or plug with ridges, and just to the right of that, that's your headphone jack. The jack to the left of that one is your microphone jack. When you plug a headset mic or any other mic into that jack, the stereo mics on the card itself are muted, so for the least confusing results, I would say you might want to have something plugged into that jack all the time. Initially, the software tried to install the necessary driver for the card to function properly, but I had to reboot a couple of times to get the process to work properly. Hey, I'm new to this and it was a learning experience. So the driver installed and all, at this point, seems to be working well. As for the SRM control pannel program, it is definitely not very speech friendly, not without a lot of mousing around. and even then, some of the screens look mighty confusing. So the best way to customize things is to probably stick to using the regular Windows volume control. That will allow ou to set things how you want them. Overall, I'm very pleased with the card! The install was a bit touch and go because, as I said we weren't sure why things weren't working but after I remembered that I had been using a hub, and I plugged the card directly into my laptop USB port, that's when things vastly improoved. Hope this helps anyone looking to buy a card like this. Hopefully it'll help you avoid any pitfalls along the way and you'll have your new card up and running in ono time!

Re: my initial impressions of the turtle Beach Audio Advantage SRM
Hi. I don't see why not, as long as you can get JAWS to behave itself. JAWS 10 will let you determine what card it works on, whereas older versions required you to edit a .ini file to make that work, and it wasn't always easy to do. But I think y ou can do that. At 04:23 PM 5/16/2009, you wrote: an this sound car be used for d.j.ing purposes, meaning can you have JAWS go to the turtle beach soundcard and play music on your default soundcard?

This card is tiny, weighing in only a few ounces, and it kind of looks like a cigarette lighter at first glance. It has 4 audio jacks 2 on each end of the card, the ones I've paid the most attention to are the microphone, and the headphone jack, which are on the same end. This card also sports 2 stereo mics, a green LED light that blinks when audio is present, and stays solid when none is playing. So if you have some usable sight this might take a bit of getting used to. I have a set of speakers hooked up to the card which handles my music and windows sounds, and I have Window-eyes 7.01 routed to my laptop's internal Sigmatel card. So I now have 2 sets of speakers instead of one.This allows me to have more control over the volume of each one. I have 2 volume controls to use now, but if I want to hear the speech over the music more, it's easier for me, because I can keep the music at the same level now.

Re: my initial impressions of the turtle Beach Audio Advantage SRM
Thanks for the info about the card, Chris. I looked at the specs: http://www.turtlebeach.com/products/audio-advantage-srm/indetail.aspx This is quite a powerful little audio device. Did you know it has 10 bands of EQ on each output? I like the fact it has built in stereo mics. And the volume/mute control would be convenient. I'm going to send for one too. I hope I can manage it's control panel, especially the equalizer.

I have a realtech driver but I will have to see what it is. Usually the realtech drivers are pretty much universal if you have a rather up to date system.

You will have to install the driver. Software is even more inaccessible than SoundBlaster and responsiveness is worse. My suggestion is try something else.

hi, yes you'll have to install the drivers. the control panel thing you get with it is far from accessible too. i've gone back to a sb live card for music etc. the only reason the TB card is still in my system is for jaws only. as jaws crackles with the sb live i have, even with the patch installed. email or msn [EMAIL PROTECTED] cheers - kevin - Original Message - From: Ted Phillips [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Tuesday, October 05, 2004 11:43 PM Subject: info on the turtle beach santa cruz Hi listers.

Re: info on the turtle beach santa cruz
I beg to differ on that one dude! While you have to install the driver and yes, the control panel is as inaccessible as creative products: The T.B card is infinitely superior in sound quality and performance then any Creative product I have tried. For the buck it is one of the best cards on the market today. rocker - Original Message - From: Jimmy Ballard [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: PC audio discussion list.

I've done that, but Jaws speech and WinAmp output are on the same control. I've set the volume inside WinAmp to max but Jaws still over powers the music.
