Hi Dane,

Can you please expand on why you find Zoom H1 reliable and faithful?
I don't know enough about portable recordders and I am interestted to find out 
about alternatives to PC/Mac recording.
Also, any podcast about it may help, if you know of any.
Thank you.

Hatch.

  Subject: Received My Olympus DM7


  Subject line says it all and I've been exploring the new recorder for a 
  couple of days though a big part of me does prefer my older Olympus DM4 
  and I'm still quite happy to use the faithful and most reliable Zoom H1 
  which I've had for around 5 years now.

  I think what surprised me is the striking differences between the two 
  Olympus recorders, I know we did have a discussion on the differences 
  between the two machines on list a while back but actually comparing the 
  two physically side by side? Well I wasn't quite prepared for the shock.

  The DM7 along with its looks does throw up some new ways of doing things 
  obviously, the control layout tells you that.

  I think the internal speaker of the DM7 sounds quite a bit nicer than 
  does the DM4.

  I haven't as yet set up the Wi-Fi and I probably won't bother given its 
  limited use, that's a shame as the potential for that function is huge! 
  the hardware is there so why not go all the way and have access to an 
  Internet Radio Database or podcasting Database service? Perhaps I'm 
  talking about a future Olympus machine.

Hi,

I used Cakewalk Sonar up to version 6.
You can check 
www.jsonar.org
and the midimag list, if it is still operating.

Best wishes,

Hatch.

  Subject: Logitech Webcam


  Hi!

  This eMail came through without a subject line so I've applied an 
  appropriate subject line to reflect the discussion.

  I've had the two Logitech units for a number of years now, think its the 
  HD920C you want.

  Subject: Re: totally blind operating a webcam


  I have a Logitech Webcam - actually I have two one for each computer - 
  that works absolutely flawlessly on Skype and Facetime and it must do 
  because others comment on the video the camera is capturing.

  The camera has facial recognition and can auto focus - follow a face 
  around a room - apparently.

  I don't use any extra software, I know the camera does install some 
  drivers or whatever but Skype and Facetime seem to handle the rest of 
  everything.

  Audio is first-class through the logitech camera which has two built-in 
  microphones - one each side of the lense - and extra circuitry to 
  capture sounds around a room and block echo, it actually works believe 
  it or not and the blocking is the best I've heard apart from my Pollycom 
  Hands free desktop conference phone and the Gigaset DX800A desktop phone.

  Camera is worth around $90 and is easy to set up, just place on a shelf 
  or on top of your monitor - on a tripod if you like -, plug into a USB 
  port and away you go.

looking for a webcam that a totabbly blind person can use. I teach piano online

to my ipad that can show my hands etc? As a blind person I'm not going to able 
to adjust it myself, so wondering if something will do the job. I heard there 
is a glasses one that works via bluetoth where it will focus on what I look at.

   Hi, Andy.  I had a GoPro Hero4 Silver, and yes, a blind person can
   use it. However, you should have a sighted person put it into video
   mode before you leave for training.  You use the top button to start
   the video, and to stop it.  When you stop the video, you get three
   beeps to know that that's what happened.
  
  
   The above said, however, a GoPro Hero5 would be better, as it has
   voice control.  For example, you can say "GoPro start video" and
   "GoPro stop recording".  Suggest you buy the Hero5 Session for $299.
   Hope this helps.--Matt & Quill.

  Subject: Adobe Audition


  I have been a SoundeForge user since the early 2000's and am extremely 
  satisfied with the product.  However, I may have a specific requirement 
  for Adobe Audition  in the future.


  Does anyone on this list use that app and if so is the accessibility good?


  Any information would be appreciated.
