Recording from external sources
Greetings fellow audio lovers. I am new to the list and I have a question for those of you who use Jaws and Goldwave. I have been successfully recording from external devices, mostly cassette players, into Goldwave via an external device called an Inport made by Xitel. Wires run from my tape deck into the small Inport device, which contains its own sound card, then into a USB port on my pc. To avoid having the sound cards clash, I would have to add a new line of text to the Jaws ini file that told Jaws that the synthesizer port was my pc sound card. I then had to check the use default only box in the sounds control panel. I would restart the pc, start up Goldwave, start recording on a new file, hit the play button on the external device, and get an mp3 file for my efforts! This was cumbersome, especially having to worry about clashing sound cards. But it worked for 2 years. Well, I recently upgraded from Jaws 7 to Jaws 9. Now every time I go through this procedure, I get a Jaws application error. It knocks Jaws out so that I can't get more details as well. The last thing I hear is Jaws application error, a message is being sent., then the sound is gone! Once in a while, I manage to save some recorded sound in Goldwave, but it contains that bonking noise that you hear when you have done something Windows doesn't like. Something is definitely up. I have tried work arounds such as turning off Jaws once I hit the play button on the external device, but to no avail. Things seem to go fine right up until I send sound in from the external device. I have tried every permutation I can think of; making sure the sound cards are either the one in the pc, or the Inport one in Goldwave and the control panel. I am getting to the point of giving up. I wonder if there is a better way of doing this. Surely there must be other folks using Jaws, Goldwave, and recording sounds from external devices. What do you all use? I have tried googling key words to see what others might use, but no luck so far. Rick Harmon, the Blind Geek Zone master, recommended that I contact the PC Audio group. You all sound very knowledgeable and I really hope that you can point me in the right direction. Perhaps there are ways that avoid using more than one sound card? Let me know what you think.

RE: Recording from external sources
I do this using an iMic. I don't worry about changing the JAWS default soundcard; I simply plug in the USB device and then JAWS comes through its headphone output, which is ok for the purpose. What happens if you just plug in the device to the USB port?

Just change your default output device in control panel, no need really to be messing around with jfw.ini at all. -Original Message- From: Peter Alan Smith psmith.harv...@gmail.com To: pc-audio@pc-audio.org pc-audio@pc-audio.org Date: Thursday, January 15, 2009 04:12:01 PM Subject: Recording from external sources Greetings fellow audio lovers.

RE: Recording from external sources
Thanks, I'll give it a test. Perhaps things have changed, but when I first set this up, as soon as I plugged the Inport into the USB slot, Jaws quit. That was when I got advice from FS to put in the additional line into the ini file. I also have a port replicator which I disconnect as the Inport folks say you should plug right into the pc and not into any external ports because they might cause snaps, crackles and pops. I'll give it a go.

Trying to install the prs software that comes with the plextalk ptr2

nedding some nero seven assistance with a burning stuff off of my c drive issue
Hi okay I have Nero 7 it is the one with the start smart center and then Nero express. okay well now I am having an issue where. If I like lets say go under one of my music folders on my computer and make a lay out for burning on to a blank cd r for playing in my stereo or in whatever cd player that I would like to play it in after it has been made. So I put all of the files that are all mp3s bye the way in the order that I would like the to be on the disc. then I burn the disc and then when it is finished. I take the disc out and go to play it in a cd player. And there are tracks there but no audio. Now this seemed to have started since I was messing around to get the johny Horton image file to burn in to an audio cd. Witch again had all of the tracks but no audio. It was like the tracks are the songs with no audio of the song on the track. But the tracks were there because the cd player was counting like it would when you would put a store boughten disc in and were playing it. So I took that disc and looked at it on the computer and all of the tracks and titles of them were there just not the audio. So can this be corrected with out a lot of hassle and what do I have to do so that I can correct this? Or should I just go in Nero 7's menus and find restore to defaults and hit that? Maybe that would fix it. So all assistance and suggestions are welcome. And thank you to everyone for any help I may get with this interesting problem.

problem with winamp 5.52
Window-Eyes version 6.1. XP PRO. There is a song title that keeps appearing on the screen all the time. It appears in the mouse window. Once at the bottom of the screen and then two lines above. It doesn't matter what track is playing at the time. This other title that I speak of is always there. Of course, the present song title is also there when I use control-shift-t to read it. This old title has been there for the longest time, and I can't figure out where Winamp is getting it from. It's not in my bookmarks, and the media library is empty. Thanks in advance.
