Re: Recording audio from a VCR
Hi It does, thanks I'll pass it on to my friend and get back to you if need be. Thanks again Trace - Original Message - From: Dane Trethowan [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: PC Audio Discussion List pc-audio@pc-audio.org Sent: Thursday, September 04, 2008 1:07 AM Subject: Re: Recording audio from a VCR Right, well you'll need a lead say (by the sounds of things) a 3.5MM stereo minijack to RCA lead, most VCR'S have a RCA audio output (at least 1), the next thing you need to know is the recorder stereo or Mono? If stereo you need a 3.5MM stereo jack to 2 RCA female plugs, if mono then just 1 RCA female plug. This lead then goes from the audio input of the sound device of your laptop to the audio output of the VCR. Your laptop may have 1 or 2 (or none) audio inputs, if none then you'll need another sound device but perhaps for the sake of clarity, that can wait (if need be) for another post so let's assume your laptop has at least 1 input. you may need to adjust the gain of this input if its a Mic input, you'll need to turn the gain right down, if its a Line input then everything should be fine, run a few tests and see what happens, hope this helps.

audible.com help/converting books to MP3
First, I wasn't sure which to download--Audible Download Manager or Audible Manager--when purchasing my first book. Not being sure I first downloaded Audible Download Manager but found it confusing and wasn't sure where in Media Player to find my file or how even to get into the player itself. So I downloaded Audible Manager, which is on desktop and it says you can use its player or Windows Media. Well I did get it to play with the Audible player and I do like the way it continues from where you left off when you re-open Audible Manager. But I don't know the hot keys as far as forwarding, rewinding and using volume on this player and wouldn't mind help there. But what I'd also like help with is being able to somehow convert Audible books into MP3's so they can be played in Winamp. I know that somehow they convert to small files and these files end in mid-sentence, but I do prefer Winamp and am hoping someone can show me how to convert books to MP3. Thanks.

There are four Audible formats. While format 4 is based on the MP3 format, you are not getting standard protected MP3's. Audible does not provide its books in standard MP3 format.

Re: Problems creating an audio cd with Neero, a puzzler!
The one package I find that works quite well for creating (no break) type cds from multiple files is acoustica cd burner. Right clicking can, even blend in a bit of the one track into the other, so if there is a click between them, you can make sure it doesn't happen due to a DC issue with your sound card, giving you a few milliseconds of blend, enough so the end-user doesn't know, only the engineer. :) It is a little tricky sometimes with a screen reader, but it surely can be done.

Re: Problems creating an audio cd with Neero, a puzzler!
One of the nice things about Gold Wave is that, when you split a file into smaller ones for the purposes of CD tracks, you can tell the program to place the split so that the slight click won't happen. The slight click has nothing to do with the sound card, it has to do with the number of samples in a track.

Not much to rave about in the features steaks, just 3 inputs (fono, AUX and Tuner) and 2 stereo speaker outputs (A and B) but in the Hi-Fi game? Well sound quality comes well before features . I personally don't believe in buying receivers, I prefer to match a good tuner with my amp but each to their own, in the tuner steaks there are 2 kinds, one which gives you a narrow band with good sensitivity and the other giving you a nice wide band, great audio quality but not so sensitive. I have 2 different Denon tuners here each fitting the characteristics I've just outlined but e warned, even on the second-hand market these little beauties fetch a few hundred dollars and their FM quality is truly outstanding. As a final thought, if I were going to go for a receiver and I wasn't at all too concerned about surround-sound? Well give the Denon AVR2000 a look over, fetches about $300.00 on the second-hand market but I've seen them go higher in price, a truly outstanding 5.1 receiver with 80 watts RMS per channel (that includes the 2 rear channels) and an excellent wide band tuner. Did I answer any of your questions? Probably not, I just rambled .

RE: av reciver or stereo reciever
If I can piggy back on Clifford's comments - I found the Onkyos the easiest to use. I own a 989 version 2 AV receiver as well as a 90 pro and owned a 919; once set up, very easy operation, but periodic sighted help is needed to make adjustments in some of the surround features. HK from what I remember are also rather easy, but haven't assessed the newer units. Sony and Denon are the most difficult I've had to deal with and gave away a Dennon receiver and a Sony processor for that reason. also, the price for Onkyo receivers are dirt cheap now with nice freatures on low-end models (304 and 504 models are roughly 75w by 5 channels).

Re: av reciver or stereo reciever
I'm glad you mentioned car entertainment equipment, if anyone wants to do things cheaply then perhaps they may actually think of intergrating a car system into their house?

RE: Problems creating an audio cd with Neero, a puzzler!
Bruce, how do you tell Goldwave to omit the click when splitting a file for the purpose of creating a Cd? Larry -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Bruce Toews Sent: Thursday, September 04, 2008 12:45 PM To: PC Audio Discussion List Subject: Re: Problems creating an audio cd with Neero, a puzzler! One of the nice things about Gold Wave is that, when you split a file into smaller ones for the purposes of CD tracks, you can tell the program to place the split so that the slight click won't happen. The slight click has nothing to do with the sound card, it has to do with the number of samples in a track. Bruce On Thu, 04 Sep 2008 11:41:40 -0500, Curtis Delzer [EMAIL PROTECTED] said: The one package I find that works quite well for creating (no break) type cds from multiple files is acoustica cd burner. Right clicking can, even blend in a bit of the one track into the other, so if there is a click between them, you can make sure it doesn't happen due to a DC issue with your sound card, giving you a few milliseconds of blend, enough so the end-user doesn't know, only the engineer. :) It is a little tricky sometimes with a screen reader, but it surely can be done. Curtis Delzer. HS go to http://www.cdburner.com At 06:28 AM 9/2/2008, you wrote: Well this sounds like a real novice question and thats ok but believe me its not, or at least I don't think so. I did some audio editing in Goldwave cutting sections from large audio files and breaking them out to several small files. I made sure each cut was trimmed nicely removing any silence at ends of both files. I then fired up Nero 6 to create the audio cd. I encountered the following problems. Here was my goal first of all. You need this to understand the problem. I wanted an audio cd that played every track automaticly with no silence or gaps between tracks. I checked the no gaps between tracks or however Nero says it on the beginning screen. That didn't work. I then created another cd where I checked the same box but then went in to the advanced controls and checked remove silence at end of cda trakcs and even with both boxes checked it didn't work. If I played track 1 I manually had to advance to track 2 it just wouldn't play on its own unattended. What is going wrong? Is it a bug with my particular version of Nero? Am I missing something, thats entirely possible? I need to create an audio cd with tracks but where one track plays rapid fire right after another as if there were no tracks. Yes I could merge the files in to one file and burbn it that way but I really wanted the track marks. what am I doing wrong? I need this for voice over demos and thats the way they want them these days. Any help would be appreciated. thanks in advance.
