Hello, I forgot, there was a set of free courses for GoldWave and Reaper by CAVI, very much out of date now but I mention them because getting started with audio is not seeking a DAW. The lectures for both DAWS were the same to start with. These lectures were on subjects such as; What is sound and how is it generated? How does a microphone work and what are the different types of microphone? What kinds of cables are required for audio production? What is an interface and which one do I need to get started? These are basic principles that are very important and I'd suggest an essential for getting into audio as it will save lots of head scratching and unnecessary waisted purchases. I just tried using my browser book mark and it appears that the domain has been pulled. Which is sad as the SD card that I had them stored died a few years ago.

Hello. The two programmes are not exactly equivalents. Reaper is much more difficult to use, but it's also a more versatile programme that is a fully fledged multi-track recorder, editor, and you can even use it to drive soft synths and do midi. So it al depends on what it is you want to do. Reaper is more demanding and pretty much assumes you have good audio hardware right out of the box. It works with aseo (sp) and Goldwave doesn't, but that also means, if you use a screen-reader, it's bestif it is on its own audio output in windows. Goldwave is a great programme that can do all sorts of audio processing -- one track at a time. It's not really made for music production. But it can still use vst effect plugins. I have used it for ages. Unfortunately I have had some trouble with the latest versions, first with a keyboard command glitch (I consider it a problem because even though there's a solution it's not really documented anywhere I can see), and dictation mode, which I use a fair bit, not working. Still, you can get an older version if you want. As for usability with a screen-reader, they both are, but you will certainly have to take some time to study up, read documentation and so on. It'll be more of a long haul with reaper for sure, so if you are just starting out and not going to work with music production or midi stuff, I would think goldwave would be an excellent tool. There's also audacity of course, which is kind of somewhere in between Goldwave and Reaper in terms of its' abilities. It has a weird interface that I think isn't much like most daw software, but that could actually be an advantage if you can't see the screen and haven't used any other ones. -Original Message- From: all-audio@groups.io On Behalf Of David Mehler Sent: April 5, 2024 5:20 PM To: all-audio@groups.io Subject: [all-audio] Goldwave or Reaper Accessibility, and beginner friendliness as a DAW?

[all-audio] Goldwave or Reaper Accessibility, and beginner friendliness as a DAW?
Hello, I'm looking to get in to audio.

Also, were you using one product then switched to another? If so why? Thanks.

[all-audio] Needing an audio expert for some help
Hello, I'm needing some help with what is probably bad audio, but it's the best it's going to get. I have a raspberry pi 4 with a USB mic and I had it pull in some audio.

I've got 22050khz .wav files as of now. I've got goldwave and audacity, it's been years since I've done this and there might be a time constraint. Any help appreciated. Thanks.

[all-audio] olympus recorders
Hello, I am still in the market for a new recorder. I did look at zooms but I'm needing menu accessibility with my recorder, I'm not really needing an app or anything like that I am just looking for a standalone recorder. What are opinions on current Olympus recorders? Thanks. Dave. -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- Groups.io Links: You receive all messages sent to this group.

Re: [all-audio] recommendations for a new recorder?
Hello, Thanks, anyone have any podcasts of these or other recorders, demos so I can get an idea what I am getting sound and feature wise? Thanks. Dave.

Re: [all-audio] recommendations for a new recorder?
Hello, Mainly I'm looking for podcast creation/lecture recordings. I'm very out of touch with newer recorders so I don't know features to ask for or which I really wouldn't need, what features are on modern recorders? Thanks. Dave.

Hello, My Olympus DS50 has given up the ghost. I am now in the market for a new recorder and would appreciate recommendations. Thanks.

Re: [all-audio] Jfw, scripts, Goldwave6, and loud noise in audio
Hello, With regards goldwave6, jfw 2020, and the scripts, has anyone noticed that pressing a key such as left bracket or pause doesn't give feedback such as where the start marker is, or the status of the toggle?

Re: [all-audio] Jfw, scripts, Goldwave6, and loud noise in audio
Hello, It is kind of a personal nature. What I can do is provide a sample of the noise that resides in the file. I've tried everything I can to filter it out, drop the volume, tried some band pass/stop, low and high pass, but i'm either not doing it right, not the right settings, but I have reduced it, but in doing so the underlying audio the stuff I'm trying to hear gets really tinny sounding. Part of it is I did not make this and I think the person who did it did not do well with it, they encoded at 22050KHZ I think but it's slow, so that the full file is over 27 hours long, changing the rate to 44100 makes it intelligible and drops the file length to just over 13 hours. Here's the link to the interference pattern I'm trying to eliminate. Again I can use Goldwave, reaper, or audacity, if anyone has suggestions i'm open to them. https://www.dropbox.com/s/r8qba57lib1z0db/noise.wav?dl=0 Thanks. Dave.

[all-audio] Jfw, scripts, Goldwave6, and loud noise in audio
Hello, I'm using Goldwave6 with Jfw 2020 and it's scripts for same. I've got a piece of audio that has a rather loud noise in it. I've captured a sample of this noise not sure I got just the noise as it's very audio-overwhelming and i'd like to filter it out. Right now I'm trying to open the audio, then I'm going to save it as a flac file so I don't damaage the mp3 file by repeatedly working on it, I get a lossless file in the flac. I'm going to try to listen to just the left channel and just the right channel, see if one is clear and/or if one has the audio completely. This audio is just speech so any suggestions as to how I can filter appreciated. Note, I am not opposed to using other tools, I've got the latest audacity on this machine as well as have got the free-for-time thanks to kovid19, reaper. I've also got NVDA as a second screen reader. I'd appreciate any suggestions. Thanks. Dave. -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- Groups.io Links: You receive all messages sent to this group.
