Curious apple music question
Good morning guys. I probably already know the answer but in my not enough coffee stupor this morning I may not be looking at it properly. Is it possible or will it make Apple music funky, to renew on a month by month basis as it were with Apple Music, say, one month get it and if I can’t afford it, switch it off for a month or two and then switch it back on through auto renew when I can swing it again? I didn’t know if that threw some of these things like that off or not. Thanks and sorry for being lame this morning. I’m working on the caffeine and haven’t played with it too closely yet today. Thanks again and take care. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "MacVisionaries" group.

Re: apple music question
If you mean real radiostations on the internet, i don’t know. If you mean starting a new station from a artist, it should work interact and use the context menu, start new station from this or something, but probably not with all artists, like Mike Stern for example. Command + 9 brings back the old radio station on mac.

Ripping vinyl to digital music formats on theMac [was Re: a music question]
Hi Carolyn, This is a somewhat late reply to your query on saving music from LPs to digital format. Eric Caron did a nice podcast on Blind Cool Tech describing how to use Amadeus Pro to digitize his old LPs: Amadeus Pro Vinyl to CD (January 27, 2010). The following link may work, or you may have to go back to the Blind Cool Tech web pages: http://media.libsyn.com/media/bct/bct1436AmadeusProVinylToCD.mp3 Eric outlined all the steps in detail, and he also used a Griffin iMic: http://www.griffintechnology.com/products/imic Allison also has a podcast giving an overview of Amadeus Pro on her web site: http://gwenna.podbean.com (Type Amadeus Pro into the search box on that site to find the episode) I think Eric's podcast will answer most of the questions you have. Since you mention wanting to get the very best sound quality out of classical music LPs, instead of the Griffin iMic, you might want to use an external sound card, such as an M-Audio Fast Track or Fast Track Pro (recently discussed on list). Amadeus Pro is now up to Amadeus Pro 2, but they also still have the original version, and they also have 30-day free trials, if you don't already have it. I like the way you can de-noise tracks by selecting a section of blank track, then letting the program analyze the characteristics and apply them to de-noising selected regions that you want to clean up. Since you can sample the results, and undo the changes if you don't like results, this works very well. However, this method is really better for removing tape hiss than for cleaning up cracks and pops in LPs. There was a good TidBITS article on this: • Media Creation - Transferring Vinyl LPs to Digital: One Approach by Matt Neuberg 10 Mar 2010 http://tidbits.com/article/11072 Matt Neuberg links to a suggested external device at Sweetwater -- a TASCAM US-144mkII for $139.95 to provide better quality audio A/D conversion than simply plugging into your laptop's audio or USB input and handling it that way. (These are links that appear within the main article, and you have to follow them to find out the device details). The article outlines other considerations and details behind his decisions. You don't have to follow these options, and using the steps that Eric took in his BCT podcast just using Amadeus Pro may be enough for you. But a read through of the article will certainly answer your questions about what other steps you can take to get the very best sound quality, how much work/expense is involved, and what the trade-offs are. For example, I know someone who started recording with the Griffin iMic on the old macvisionaries list (pre-2009), and then decided she wanted the better recording quality of a separate sound card. Having a specific, direct link to a reasonably priced product ($140 for an external unit that works for Mac laptops and is current, including shipping), and knowing that someone has vetted as working in this setup is quite useful, even if you decide this is not for you. And you don't have to switch to multiple apps for the sound recording, editing, and cleaning stages as the author does. The main additional issues you may want to consider, beyond what Eric covered in his BCT podcast, are what additional steps you want to take in cleaning your classical music tracks. Some music aficionados use a product from Bias called Sound Soap to clean their music. The problem is, Bias software products and their iOS apps have not been particularly accessible. Bias has a new product called SoundSaver in the Mac App Store that they bill as being the simplest way to archive your LPs and tapes. Given my suspicions about the accessibility of their products, if you want to give this a test, I'd recommending using the link to their 14-day free download trial before spending money for this (around $50). Here's the SoundSaver URL: http://www.bias-inc.com/products/soundSaver/ There was also some earlier discussions on list about de-noising products: • Audio Restoration page by Brian Davies: http://www.maths.anu.edu.au/~briand/sound/ I think the above URL is now redirected to: http://www.clickrepair.net/ This is a page about restoring recordings from LPs and tapes that you digitally capture. The author, Brian Davies, has developed software products for both click repair of LPs and de-noising hiss. (I haven't tried these, so I don't know how they work under VoiceOver). There are sound samples, and the results sound impressive. There are links to his software (each is about $40, but I think there are free trials) for ClickRepair, and DeNoise. There are also links to web pages about digitizing LPs and tapes. The author is a retired math professor who developed this software for saving his own recordings. According to some earlier discussions in the TidBITS discussions on Audio Processing Software, these are generally esteemed as some of the best and most effective
a music question
Hi guys: I've gotten inspired to try again at ripping my vinyl to computer. I have some really intricate classical pieces, and, though I have severe herring loss, others don't,:) so I'd like to get the very best sound quality out of these that I can. The other variable is I'm working with a Griffin iMike. The only real program I'm a little familiar with is Vinyl Studio. Given those perameters, can anyone tell me what kind of file to preserve the music to? Also, given my inexperience with all of this, would I be better off having someone do this professionally for me? I'd really like to get this music down in the best possible format. If I wind up with a cochlear implant, I'll want to have as much of the real sound preserved as possible wo work with in remapping how I hear music.

Re: a music question
Hi Carolyn, If you really want to get the best result you possibly can and you are not completely confident in doing it yourself, you may want to get a professional to do it. I've not done work like this with LPs, but I have with cassettes and it can be fairly exacting work if you want to do a good job with it. Each recording may require its own particular tweeking to get the best results. However, I've also heard stories about people who have had this sort of work done by people they've paid and been unhappy with the results. Given this, you may want to get someone to do one piece and see what you and those you trust think about the work before getting them to do any more. This way, if you actually don't like it, you've only paid for a bit and not the whole lot to be done.
