RE: Olympus and zoom types of recorders and there features for accessibility
Some Olympus ones do doit. It's called composet now. It's in the USB class menu. It use to be Audio class. -Original Message- From: Pc-audio [mailto:pc-audio-boun...@pc-audio.org] On Behalf Of jeremy Sent: Sunday, February 02, 2014 10:53 PM To: pc-audio@pc-audio.org Subject: Olympus and zoom types of recorders and there features for accessibility Hello all, Here recently, I started looking into a decent handheld recorder, specifically one with the ability to record in fairly high quality stereo and also be used as an external microphone for a computer. While searching around for documentation on the different models, apparently quite lacking with blindcooltech no longer working, I came across this list and was hoping to refresh the interest in this topic and hopefully get some advice. So far, from what I've been able to dig up, it's a choice between, the dm-520 or 620, the ls models, 5, 10, 14 and 100 and of course, the H1 from zoom. My main issues with locating documentation, specifically on the dm-620 is the fact that several pages on this device state that it does not have the accessible menus, comparing it to the dm-670, apparently a device specific to European markets. This however does not seem to be the case, as other sources state that it comes with support for use by the visually impaired. I've been able to locate a few of the podcasts, recorded by Neal Eurs and am in the process of searching for any others I can find, however, one thing I still can't find any information on is the ability to use these devices as an external stereo mic for a computer, outside of recording. I'm honestly not sure if this is just a lack of me not knowing the term used to describe this, but even in the manuals for the olympus devices I've found, I can't find any mention of this. I do know that the zoom has this ability and also that several devices from olympus do as well, but I'm just looking for a more complete list of accurate manuals/documentation. I'm even considering contacting Olympus, here in the US to ask also, but I wanted to find a list to hopefully ask other folks who've used these devices first. Lastly, I'm looking to spend at most around 200 dollars, hopefully a little cheaper so any ideas that anyone can give that may fit the bill would be greatly appreciated. Thank you. Blessings.
Switch, Free and Paid
Hi. The paid for version of Switch gives you the opeertunity to convert between 24 different file types and If I remember around 250 files at one go. I usually use Gold Wave for my bulk convertions so haven't used Switch for a few years. The main times I've used Switch is when I wanted to convert MP4a or MP4b files which Gold Wave doesn't handle. With the free version the file types are limited.

Re: Electro static headphones.
I know people who own electro static headphones, they use a brand called Stax which are hand made apparently, the people I know with them can't speak highly enough of those cans and recommend over everything else so they must have something going for them, I notice Stax are available in Australia at http://www.addictedtoaudio.com.au so I really should follow that up though I'm told that - given that these cans are made in low numbers - that getting a pair may take a few months.

Re: Olympus recorders and audio quality
Awesome, thank you for giving me a better idea on what to look for. I was able to locate this composite option in both user manuals, the dm-620 and the ls-14. I also contacted Olympus's tech support this morning and was given a pretty decent comparison between these two devices, along with the ls-100. This ended up with me asking him a question, which he was unable to really answer, so perhaps it's more appropriate to ask it here. He told me that some of the options that the recorder supports, work better in conjunction with the accompanying software, Sonority, so what types of accessibility issues, if any would I have using it with NVDA? Staying within my price range of about 200 bucks, I'm probably going to begin focusing on either the 620 or the ls-14 which brings me to a small question. What, if any differences in quality can I expect from the microphones on either of these devices. I know that the dm-620 has one extra file format it supports, Windows Media Audio, which perhaps is not so important for me, so what can I expect with using both these devices in recording either in .WAV or .MP3, the two formats I'm more familiar with. I've unfortunately not yet had any luck in locating a review of the 620, to get a better idea of the microphones quality, I have listened to the one recorded by Neal on the ls-14 though. The one thing I do like about the ls-14 is the fact that the battery life is greatly increased, all be the device being a tad bit larger, but is the larger battery capacity plus possible higher quality in audio and ability to hold slightly larger SD cards worth the extra cost? Any experiences with either of these devices or even a possible small recording of the dm-620s capabilities would be totally awesome. Thank you again. Blessings.

While searching around for documentation on the different models, apparently quite lacking with blindcooltech no longer working, I came across this list and was hoping to refresh the interest in this topic and hopefully get some advice. So far, from what I've been able to dig up, it's a choice between, the dm-520 or 620, the ls models, 5, 10, 14 and 100 and of course, the H1 from zoom. My main issues with locating documentation, specifically on the dm-620 is the fact that several pages on this device state that it does not have the accessible menus, comparing it to the dm-670, apparently a device specific to European markets. This however does not seem to be the case, as other sources state that it comes with support for use by the visually impaired. I've been able to locate a few of the podcasts, recorded by Neal Eurs and am in the process of searching for any others I can find, however, one thing I still can't find any information on is the ability to use these devices as an external stereo mic for a computer, outside of recording. I'm honestly not sure if this is just a lack of me not knowing the term used to describe this, but even in the manuals for the olympus devices I've found, I can't find any mention of this. I do know that the zoom has this ability and also that several devices from olympus do as well, but I'm just looking for a more complete list of accurate manuals/documentation. I'm even considering contacting Olympus, here in the US to ask also, but I wanted to find a list to hopefully ask other folks who've used these devices first. Lastly, I'm looking to spend at most around 200 dollars, hopefully a little cheaper so any ideas that anyone can give that may fit the bill would be greatly appreciated. Thank you. Blessings.
Re: Electro static headphones.
Hi Senheisser headphones are good, I had a pair but unfortunately one of the channels broke, may look into this or Bose in the future, right now I'm happy with these hilips ones I'm wearing now.

Re: Electro static headphones.
Some of the best headphones I've used have been the Senheiser hdr32 I think the model number is and for performance they were the best buy I've made apart from the Grado Labs SR60I which I've referred to in earlier messages. I still have the Senheiser pair but they need replacement cables and elements so I'm debating whether to do that or to buy a completely new pair, parts for those things just don't come cheap. The Sehneiser cans are not electro static.

Re: Electro static headphones.
Mo it isn't. Best to try audio items like these. So subjective. All the data sheets in the world will not count a brass razoo against a personal demonstration. They can also be a little heavy on the head, well at least the older offerings were. Beautiful build, but again subjectivity is the guiding principle. Best, Joe -- Joe Paton j...@vi-ability.demon.co.uk
RE: Electro static headphones.
Hello, My KOS ESP9's are still sitting over there on the shelf. The jell has gone out of the pads. I wonder if I can replace them with something. Now that you guys have drawn them to my attention, I should pull'm out and have a listen. I wonder if they have any market value.

RE: Thank God for SONGR
Hi Larry: Way too much praise for just telling you about SONGR, though the program is truly excellent. It is my pleasure to help other blind people and as a matter of fact, though I am a blind veteran myself, the VA in Northern Florida contracts me to teach other blind beterans to use adaptive technology, a very rewarding activity. SONGR is not only a great tool for downloading from Youtube, but you can use the search field to locate audio files in many other sights too. You could for instance, search for John Kennedy or JFK and I am sure you will find many audio files by and about him as well.

If you want a good and reliable converter of files from Youtube, then this is definitely the ticket. I might have been a little disappointed with a small few of the downloads from Youtube over the past week, but not in SONGR. I became genuinely interested in Youtube conversions around the 50th year of the Kennedy assassination because some of the programs available were quite long, and I could find no way to mark them up for later listening, making it necessary to relisten to ground I had already covered. I put out an appeal for some help with the problem, and Humberto suggested SONGR. It took me a month or so to finally get around to putting it to the test, but I'm really glad I did. For me at least, this program has lots of potential. So, thank God for the list, Humberto, and SONGR. OK, this may sound a bit over the top, but it isn't often I find an application as useful as this one. Thanks for graciously putting up with my gushing g, Larry
