Winamp Pro Info

2007-02-26 Thread Jana Jackson
Hi!  This is for the person who is trying to create MP3's with Winamp Pro to 
use in your work as a DJ.  I'm about to be doing the same thing, and I was 
determined to figure out how to rip CD's with Winamp Pro, which is also the 
player that we're using for broadcasting.  Happily, if you're using JFW 7 or 
later, there are some scripts at
http://www.jfwlite.com
that will help.  The feature is located in the library, and without those 
scripts, you just won't get very far with Jaws. Smile  I'm still getting 
familiar with the process, but if you try it and run into any trouble, let 
me know... I now know enough to be dangerous! Smile  The process for 
figuring all this out has been a nightmare, so once it's over, I'm happy to 
help if I can. I wish you the best with your work... Take care!

Jana

Hi Guys,
   
How is winamp for ripping cds to mp3s?  does it do a good job? Also
  what
do most people encode there mp3s at?  I was thinking about going with
  192
kbps, or do you think 256 is worth it?  I am a d.j. and will be using
  the
mp3s at gigs. I need them to sound as close to cds and records as
possible.  THANKS!

bit rate quality question

2007-02-26 Thread stever2525
Hi, this is Steve. I have a bit rate question.
If I take a WAV file and convert it to a MP3 file, if I then later choose to 
further lower the bit rate, if I take the original WAV file and convert it 
to the desired lower bit rate, wouldn't the quality be better than lowering 
the already once compressed file, even though it is at a higher bit rate?
My thinking is that an already compressed file, compressed further is using 
the first MP3 file as it's source.
Hope this makes since. Am I correct or not?
thank you

What they do is give you all features until the demo period runs out.  Then
you have to buy the business edition if you want features like call
recording.  There are a few more features, too, but right now I don't
remember what they are.  I do remember that on their site there is a
comparison between the business edition and the free version.

Actually, most mp3s that are at either 128k, 160k, and 192k and up to 
320k, usually have a sampling rate of 44100 KHZ.
That's cd quality.

Re: mp3 bit rates

2007-02-26 Thread Rich De Steno
But is it not true that high bit rate and low frequency will degrade sound 
quality just as much?  Compare a music file of let's say 192 KBS and 22 KHz 
with the same music at 64 KBS and 44.1 KHz.

 Hi Chris.

 The sampling rate of 44.1 khz does not mean the music is CD quality.  The
 bit rate will determine the frequency response of the music which is the
 real measure of quality.

 So, a bit rate of 128kbps will yield a frequency range that is much more
 limited than 320 kbps which means less low end and high treble frequency.
 Less dynamic frequency range, less quality...

 There was a great resource which gave a table of frequency range against 
 bit
 rates but unfortunately I can't find it just yet.

Re: mp3 bit rates

2007-02-26 Thread Kevin Lloyd
Absolutely right...  You'd never use less than a 44.1khz sampling rate for 
music.  The sampling rate tells you how many times you're going to sample 
the data per second.  The bit rate tells you how many bits will be used in 
each one second sample.  So, the higher the sampling rate and the bit rate 
then the better the quality.

Some nice explanations to be had at:

Subject: [Blind Audio] Mozekty: The Talking Internet Radio Database


I have lots of friends who ask me for accessible websites to find good
 links to internet radio stations. I usually send them to
 http://www.billsparks.org
 because Bill is visually impaired and understands how to create an
 online database of station listings that is screen reader friendly. Bill
 does a great
 job at keeping his website updated, but there's only so much one guy
 can do.

 Sometimes, you just want to try something new. Why can't there be a
 database of stations that is being checked by a handfull of people to
 insure that they
 are online and why can't that database be screen reader friendly? I was
 asking myself this question one day and did a Google search for internet
 radio
 database. The results weren't good. What I found were programs that
 were not accessible and tons of online resources that hadn't been
 updated in years.

 Well, I kept searching and eventually came to the
 InfraDrive Mozekty page at http://www.infradrive.com/mozekty.php
 . The description of the program said that Mozekty is a free fast tool
 to play your audio streams and radio stations, you can also get a list
 of the latest
 radio stations on the internet and save your favourite stations.
 Features include:

 Listen to hundreds of internet radio stations from around the world
 with this full-featured player.
 Add, edit or delete stations from your stations database.
 Check for latest stations found on the internet by connecting to
 Bitsnips.com.
 Get full info and statistics about the current playing stream.
 Full control from Mozekty system tray icon when the application is
 minimized.
 Friendly user interface.
 Great tool with a small size.

 I knew this was the program I was looking for. I went to the
 InfraDrive Download Page at http://www.infradrive.com/downloads.php
 and got a copy of Mozekty.

 The program worked great but had one problem with JAWS. As I tabbed
 through the various options, I noticed that JAWS wouldn't read the
 actual list of stations.
 This was an obvious problem. How was I going to know what station I had
 selected?

 I sent an email to
 [EMAIL PROTECTED]
 and got an immediate email and Skype call from Ehab El-agizy. As we
 chatted, I discovered that this guy was really interested in my issue.
 He wanted to
 make this program accessible for blind and visually impaired users and
 to continue to offer it for free. We talked about JAWS and Window Eyes
 and how they
 read the screen to people who are blind or visually impaired. He
 downloaded a demo of each program and decided that the best way to bring
 accessibility
 to this program was to write his own Text to Speech interface.

 As you can imagine, I was floored. How many people do you know would
 take this kind of interest in making a program accessible? Well, a few
 days later,
 he was sending me the first beta. It worked well and I could use my
 default SAPI voice to access most of the program's menus and combo
 boxes.

 This was outstanding. A few days later the second beta arived. Now the
 entire program spoke and additional speech support was added. Now, I
 could choose
 any SAPI 4 or SAPI 5 voice and make it the default voice for the
 program. I could now access the program just as easily as any person
 with vision. I was
 so impressed by the work done that I promised to spread the word to as
 many blind and visually impaired people as possible. You are reading the
 result
 of that promise.

 If you are interested in internet radio, I'd like for you to give this
 program a download. If you know of good internet radio stations, please
 submit them
 so we can add them to the database for all to enjoy. The current
 version does not support streams by RealMedia because of their
 perprietary nature. This
 may be fixed in future releases. Ehab wants our feedback and has a
 forum for us to post suggestions and new internet radio listings.
 You can also send new listings to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
 . He did the programming and I did the testing. We made a great team
 and I hope we can continue to work together on the program's
 development. So, what
 are you waiting for?

SJ Phone is another OK program to use. I've had it around awhile, but I just 
don't know what Voip service would let me use it, much less knowing people 
to talk to on such a service. I wonder if Vonage couldn't be done through 
this setup if one found out the necessary info some how?

 What they do is give you all features until the demo period runs out. 
 Then
 you have to buy the business edition if you want features like call
 recording.  There are a few more features, too, but right now I don't
 remember what they are.  I do remember that on their site there is a
 comparison between the business edition and the free version.

 I've got a quick question in reguards to ExpressTalk from NCH Swift
 Sound. The site says that it's a free program. However, yesterday I got
 a message notifying me that my demo has expired. Can anyone tell me
 what's up with this? Was there some other version I was supposed to
 download or something? I got the link for it on this list.
 Speaking of NCH, the same thing happened with their program Switch.
 There was some sort of limit on that too when I was informed it was free.
 Can anyone shed some light on this issue please?

Sound editing and Marking Time Intervals

2007-02-26 Thread Tony Swartz
First, let me ask that you forgive my ignorance for using the incorrect editing 
terms. I've used Total Recorder for several years, mostly for very coarse 
editing. The other day I was attempting to clean up an interview trying to get 
rid of pauses and the all too many stumbles and realized that with Total 
recorder, it's only possible to move the editing markers by a tenth of a second 
gradations. So, as a result if I didn't by happen stance place a marker exactly 
between words, moving it to the left or right by a tenth of a second would make 
it too large of a leap. The result would be either to include the end of the 
last word of the phrase I whished to cut, or clip the first word of the portion 
I want to retain. My question is whether either Gold Wave or Sound Forge allows 
for much finer movements of editing markers?

Any comments would be appreciated.

Re: I audio players

2007-02-26 Thread Brandon Hicks
Hi,
 From reading the manual, I'm pretty sure this isn't the case. To pop up 
the file browser in Rockbox, with the X5 you press the center of the 
joystick. You're then placed on your current song, and you use the left 
arrow to move up levels, up and down to move in that level and right to 
open a folder or open a song. I'm pretty sure there are more keystrokes 
needed with the stock firmware. A blind person should be able to do it 
as long as they have someone figure it out with them the first time.

If you have the X5, I can either attach and send or point you to a URL 
with lists of the menus in order with the latest stock firmware, to make 
it easier to use the features.

Hi,
As of right now, Rockbox only works on the X5. It can be ported by 
someone who knows how to code in whatever language Rockbox is in, to a 
few of the players as all the docs are there. But no one has done it 
yet. Most of the newer players aren't ported yet, because no one has 
taken them apart and figured out what sort of hardware they have inside, 
and the drivers to get them working with OpenSource.

  Hi Chris.

  The sampling rate of 44.1 khz does not mean the music is CD quality.  The 
  bit rate will determine the frequency response of the music which is the 
  real measure of quality.

  So, a bit rate of 128kbps will yield a frequency range that is much more 
  limited than 320 kbps which means less low end and high treble frequency. 
  Less dynamic frequency range, less quality...

  There was a great resource which gave a table of frequency range against bit 
  rates but unfortunately I can't find it just yet.

  Regards.

Re: mp3 bit rates

2007-02-26 Thread Doc
 
minutes
per song, 250 songs would take up about 1 gigabyte of space. This is a good 
equation to use when taking a look at your entire music collection to 
determine
changing your bit rates or upgrading your music player.

 There are hundreds of MP3 software players out there. If you search in the 
preferences or options section, you'll most likely come across converting or
an importing tab. In Apple's iTunesÓ on a PC it is located In 
Edit/Preferences/Advanced Tab/Importing Tab, and in iTunes  Preferences  
Advanced  Importing
on the Mac.

 Now choose your encoder. If you choose MP3 encoder in the Import Using 
Field, it will let you choose a fixed rate from 16kbps to 320kbps by 
clicking
the Custom option in the Setting Field. Your file will then be converted 
to the popular MP3 format.  In the custom screen you can also choose your 
fixed
bit rate or check the VBR box to make it a variable bit rate converter. If 
you choose VBR you can then change the spectrum of quality that the VBR 
converter
will use from Lowest to Highest.

 Please note that these conversion settings do not apply to music downloaded 
from Apple's iTunesÓ, just music that you import from your own CD 
collection.

 You may also notice other converter options in the encoder tab like Apple 
Lossless, AAC MP4 and AIFF. These are just more options for converting your 
music
to an MP3 like file.  A format other than MP3 may not play on your player. 
Apple lossless, AAC, MP4 and AIFF formats are supported by Apple products 
but
may not be supported by other manufacturers' players or software. If you are 
not sure if your player supports these file formats, stick with converting
to MP3 files.

 For more info on AAC and AIFF files please
click here.


Hear for Yourself

The test is to convert a few songs at different bit rates.  Then listen 
carefully, and see what differences you notice between the different 
versions of
the same song.  Your ears will tell you what really matters.

 Of course, the type of earphones you use can also make a huge difference in 
the way you hear your music.  Shure's goal is to create products that 
accurately
capture or reproduce the sounds the way the artists intend them to sound. 
Many people who make the move to using higher quality earphones, such as the

Shure E Series line
, begin to download their music at higher bit rates because you will notice 
the defects and nuances that were not apparent before.

 Experiment with bit rates and songs to experience the difference
Shure earphones
 can make.

  Hi Chris.

  The sampling rate of 44.1 khz does not mean the music is CD quality.  The
  bit rate will determine the frequency response of the music which is the
  real measure of quality.

  So, a bit rate of 128kbps will yield a frequency range that is much more
  limited than 320 kbps which means less low end and high treble frequency.
  Less dynamic frequency range, less quality...

  There was a great resource which gave a table of frequency range against 
bit
  rates but unfortunately I can't find it just yet.

  Regards.

   Actually, most mp3s that are at either 128k, 160k, and 192k and up to
   320k, usually have a sampling rate of 44100 KHZ.
   That's cd quality.

  Hi,
  
  Does anyone have any info on the range of mp3s at different bit
  rates? For example is an mp3 at 192 30 Hz to 18 kHz?  I heard mp3s
  at 128 only go up to 16 k, is that true?
  THANKS!

I thought that since MP3 is a smaller file, that maybe you would lose more 
highs than lows.

 Absolutely right...  You'd never use less than a 44.1khz sampling rate for
 music.  The sampling rate tells you how many times you're going to sample
 the data per second.  The bit rate tells you how many bits will be used in
 each one second sample.  So, the higher the sampling rate and the bit rate
 then the better the quality.

 Some nice explanations to be had at:

 But is it not true that high bit rate and low frequency will degrade 
 sound
 quality just as much?  Compare a music file of let's say 192 KBS and 22
 KHz
 with the same music at 64 KBS and 44.1 KHz.
