I think you just plug it into the USB port and Windows will do the rest. The 
software, if any, is to enhance the drivers, rather than provide new ones.

Hi folks

I've taken the plunge and will be getting a Turtle Beach Audio Advantage 
SRM for my laptop, after Kathy's suggestion.
Can anyone give me any tips for the instalation, it sounds like it's 
pretty standard but if there are any pitfalls or sticking points, I want 
to know so I can be prepared ahead of time.  It definitely sounds like the 
card I'm looking for, though.


Thanks!
Chris

Hi Doc. 5.5 isn't making any changes to anything that I input when 
splitting

files. But actually I didn't have any problems with the previous version
either.

Oh, man, I hope you like it.  Would hate to make a bad recommendation to 
you.  I don't think there's anything special.  Just make sure all your 
settings are right.  Lol!  I'm such a klutz when it comes to making sure 
every tiny setting is right in the control panel, in the recording softwar! 
Hahahaha!  But I think you'll have no probelm with that, being far more 
competent in these things!

Peace,
Kathy

Re: new sound card for my laptop

2009-05-11 Thread Kathy Szinnyey
Hey, Crhis and all!  I don't know if you really need the software or not.  I 
just went on and installed it using a thumb drive thinking maybe it needed 
to be there so my Asus could see it.  Hmmm . . . but maybe not.

Peace,
Kathy

p.s. I'm not using surround sound either although it sounds like it would be 
fun to get Turtle Beach's surround sound headphones!

Re: PROBLEMS WITH THE NEWEST GOLDWAVE 5.5

2009-05-11 Thread Roger Stewart
For some reason the new Goldwave doesn't recognize the earlier Lame 
encoder.  However, if you're on line, it will come up with a box 
offering to download it for you.  Just choose the OK button and the new 
encoder will be downloaded and installed for you.  It will then continue 
and save your file in mp3 format.  Only thing I've noticed is this new 
version of the encoder isn't nearly as fast or efficient as the earlier 
one.  Not a problem with an average single song, but when saving longer 
files, such as chapters in a spoken word book, the increased time is 
very noticable.  Haven't used it enough yet to find if the encoded files 
sound better than before but I would hope the extra time would be worth 
something.

N-track studio 6 accessibility

2009-05-11 Thread Mario Percinic
Hey all. Did anyone tried to use n-track studio 6 for professional editing 
and multi track recording and how it works in terms of accessibility in 
combination of midi tracks and audio.. Is there something which someone 
found inaccessible? I saw on the website that it is accessible and that 
icons should be disabled from the preferences, but when i disabled it i stil 
couldn't see the menus as they are shown in the standard windows 
applications.

Thanks for all the info.

menu plug ins is always disabled completely.  I used to have the Winamp

Unable to change default speech on my computer

2009-05-11 Thread Jamie Pauls

Greetings all:

In preparation for possibly purchasing an iPod Nano, I decided to change my 
computer's default speech from Microsoft Mary to just about anything else. I 
currently have K 1000, Jaws, and Window-Eyes installed on my system. I have 
had Open Book and System Access installed in the past. Using either screen 
reader and going into Control panel and choosing speech, as soon as I press 
enter I received the following error message:


Speech Properties
The requested task cannot be carried out because the necessary engine could 
not be created.  Please select a

different engine and/or a different audio device.
OK

After pressing ok, I am able to supposedly select a different speech engine. 
Most of them are Scansoft voices as well as the Microsoft voices. Two are VW 
Kate and VW Paul. After choosing any setting and pressing ok, I get the 
following error:


RUNDLL
An exception occurred while trying to run 
C:\WINDOWS\system32\shell32.dll,Control_RunDLL C:\Program

Files\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\Speech\sapi.cpl,Speech
OK

I will be most appreciative if anyone can shed some light on this for me. I 
Googled the errors and found references to them but no solutions. Thanks for 
any and all help.
