update on multi track recorder with speech guidance
Greetings, this certainly sounds very interesting. From: Johnny Russo johnnyru...@windstream.net Date: Tue, 20 Dec 2011 16:19:14 -0600 Olympus is releasing an 8 track digital recorder, at the beginning of February 2012. The unit features voice guidance for all menus. It includes two built in condenser microphones, as well as two balanced combination XLR quarter inch inputs for high quality microphones, or to connect a mixing board. The built in microphones can handle sound pressure levels up to 140 decibals, so it will record live bands with clarity and no distortion. The LS100 also has an output to connect it to a CD drive, and it will enable you to mix down its 8 tracks, to a 2 track stereo mix. It wil record in 24 bit 96K resolution. This is the preliminary information I received from Olympus Japan. The suggested selling price will be $399. If you are a member of any list serves enabling communication with other blind musicians or blind engineers, please pass the word on, about the new Olympus LS100. Keep in mind, I'm not an Olympus sales representative, I have been in contact with Olympus product engineers in order to develop this 8 track digital recorder, with speech guidance for blind users. If you have any other questions, just keep in touch. John Russo, 903-645-4344 Colin Howard, living near Southampton in Southern England, wishes you a very happy Christmas followed by a peaceful, prosperous 2012.

Fwd: Accessible Software from DVDVideoSoft
From: David Goldfield dgold...@asb.org To: n...@freelists.org Just got this press release which not only may be of interest to some of you but which also mentions NVDA. DVDVideoSoft Programs are Fully Accessible for People with Visual Impairments DVDVideoSoft has updated YouTube software and now it features compatibility with screen reading software (screen readers) that is widely used among blind and disabled people. (PRWEB) December 02, 2011 DVDVideoSoft, a leading free software developer who thinks highly of every user, made its software compatible with screen readers, special software applications that attempt to identify and interpret what is being displayed on the screen. Today DVDVideoSoft releases new updates for YouTube software which includes special compatibility mode for such software. Some months ago DVDVideoSoft redesigned the most popular programs from the list of 40+ tools included in Free Studio. All YouTube downloading software featured a new interface that appeared to be of no use for blind, visually impaired people who use screen reading software to work with computers. So, based on core principle of following users' needs, the staff arrived at the decision to make the software fully accessible for the people with visual impairments. Thereby, a new option has been embedded in all YouTube downloading software. Now it is possible with one click to enable compatibility with screen reading software in the Options menu of the main program window. The new functionality was tested with NVDA screen readers. Thus all users can enjoy using DVDVideoSoft software again without any limitation. Moreover, the company has slightly simplified YouTube software interface and proved itself again as a developer of free, simple and user friendly software. Due to thoroughly elaborated interface all extensive functionality is accessible and comprehensive for advanced users as for neophytes. DVDVideoSoft company's representative, Alex Wang comments: First of all we must thank our users for their feedback that we get soon after new releases and updates. It helps us react quickly and eliminate all difficulties our users are confronted with. The most important thing is that now absolutely all users have the possibility to enjoy not only the new interface of our programs, but all new functions embedded in redesigned YouTube software. There are no more obstacles for it. All-in-one package Free Studio includes all recent updates which can be downloaded from official web site http://www.dvdvideosoft.com. ### Contact Information Alex Wang DVDVideoSoft Limited http://dvdvideosoft.com To unsubscribe from this list, send a blank email to: pc-audio-unsubscr...@pc-audio.org
RE: BW MM-1 speakers
It's a subjective judgment, I know, but I find the BW MM-1 speakers much superior to the Bose I have, which I disconnected and put away as soon as I heard the MM-1 quality. They're clear, the sound is full, the bass is balanced, and I hear words and musical moments I hadn't heard before. Installation was easy, and I needed no sighted assistance. The toggle control for on/stand-by is located on the left side of the power speaker. It isn't a button and it isn't recessed, but it sits between the upper and lower bands of cloth that circle the speaker. Similar controls appear on the right for lowering and raising the volume. To lower the volume, press the forward part of the horizontal band between the cloth, and to raise volume press the partner the back. As I understand it, the speakers bypass the PC's sound card, which surely helps maintain their quality. BW uses lit-up color codes on the power speaker to indicate various states. Red indicates off, blue on, slow-flashing blue stand-by. When connected to the PC for a firmware upgrade, the light switches to white. With this set, I find that the speakers turn off when the computer is turned off. The light turns to red. When I want to restore sound after the computer has rebooted, I need to take out and then reinsert the USB connection, then press the side of the power speaker to turn it on. When this operation succeeds, my system issues a confirming beep. Here's my reservation. The power speaker gets hot. I have it in a desk cabinet, but I've made sure it has plenty of space around it. Still, I'm sufficiently concerned that I routinely turn them off when I'm not listening to anything. I should have kept my Bose connected because I now lose JAWS's and MS's sound alerts. The Bose connected through the regular audio terminals at the back of my Dell, not a USB connection. The only BW update currently available for the speakers appears to have no real value for me. As I understand it, it keeps the speakers on standby during a reboot. On reflection, I prefer they go off completely, other than receiving power from the power cord (which does not cause the heat problem). IF BW ever replies to my request for assistance with regard to updating, I'll post their suggestion. I suggest you read the reviews at Amazon.com for more customer reactions: http://www.amazon.com/Bowers-Wilkins-Multimedia-computer-speaker/dp/B003R6U6 HG/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8qid=1322861412sr=8-1 The reviews at Amazon.co.uk are also helpful. At the time I was buying, it was two customers there who talked about the heat problem. Like me, at least one customer reported concerns about BW's tech support. A note for US consumers. When I purchased the MM-1s two weeks ago, Amazon was selling it at $499 through JR. I used another seller on that same page, Geminigadget, which offered the speakers at $50 less, with shipping included. The speakers arrived in three days. -Original Message- From: pc-audio-boun...@pc-audio.org [mailto:pc-audio-boun...@pc-audio.org] On Behalf Of André van Deventer Sent: Wednesday, December 21, 2011 12:52 AM To: 'PC Audio Discussion List' Subject: RE: BW MM-1 speakers Adrian Except for the update issue, are they really worth the extra cost do you think?

Re: CD RIPPER
It's been a while since I ripped a CD, and I don't think I ever did it in Windows 7, but I ended up just using Windows Media Player. It's free, ubiquitous and I didn't find it that difficult to figure out, but that's a relative term and WMP does take some getting used to.

foobar and assigning keys for stop and play and things like that
Hi I would like to give foobar 2000 a try for playing MP3 files and the like. But I would like to be able to have it be kind of like win amp. Where you can stop and play and have some control over those features and even a pause feature would be nice as well. So how do you make this happen? Also how can you make foobar open to just a foobar window and not the play list window that it opens with bye default?

Re: foobar and assigning keys for stop and play and things like that
Have you gone in and set up your hot keys in FooBar yet? Here's a post that was sent to this list a little while ago with some instructions on how to set up hot keys in FooBar. It's a bit tedious, but if you take the time, you can get FooBar to do pretty much what you want! Original Message Subject: Fw: Tips on using Foobar 2000 Date: Sat, 29 Oct 2011 22:54:59 -0600 From: Brett Boyer bboyer...@gmail.com Reply-To: PC Audio Discussion List pc-audio@pc-audio.org To: PC Audio Discussion List pc-audio@pc-audio.org This was a message sent from a year or two ago by Christopher. He explains the process quite well. Read on! bb - Original Message - From: Christopher Chaltain To: PC Audio Discussion List pc-audio@pc-audio.org To set up a keyboard short cut, you can do the following: 1) Start FooBar2000 and use control-p to bring up Preferences. 2) Arrow down to Keyboard Shorcuts. 3) If you tab over about 5 times, you'll end up on the list of the keyboard shortcuts already defined. Arrowing down this list will select the different keyboard shortcuts and give you the chance to edit them. 4) Probably the first thing you want to do is tab over once more to the Add New button. clicking on this button will add a keyboard shortuct to your list of keyboard shortcuts with none of the values set. 5) Shift-tab back to the list of keyboard shortcuts and arrow down to the bottom of the list. You should hear an entry that has three values not set. Make sure you do this step or you could potentially be editing a shortcut you didn't intend to change. I'm speaking from experience here. 6) Tab over about three times and you'll end up on the list of all of the functions you could associate with a shortcut key. For example, you'll have options like volume up, volume down, seek ahead by 30 seconds and seek back by 2 minutes. This list is huge, so you can tab over twice to the filter field and type in something like seek or volume to get just those items that have that string in them. After entering a string in the filter field, shift-tab twice to get back to the subset of functions containing just that string. 7) Select the function you want to associate with a shortcut key and tab over once. This is where it gets a little tricky. You'll hear a more detailed description of the function you selected, but you're really in an edit field where you're going to choose the key you want to associate with this function. Be careful here, if you hit the space bar than the space bar will be associated with whatever function you selected. Suppose you chose the function volume mute and then you associated the space bar with this function. Now whenever you hit the space bar in FooBar2000, the volume will be muted, even when you're typing in the title of a track. FooBar2000 will warn you when you try to associate a common place key, such as up, down, left, right, space, ..., with a function. 8) There's a box where it you can make this a global key. I haven't used this option, but I assume this will let you use that keyboard shortcut even when FooBar2000 doesn't have the focus. Again, be careful here. 9) After setting up a shortcut key you can then arrow over to the list of shortcut keys to change or review anything you've done. Once you have the keys set up you want then just tab over to the Close button and you're done. 10) After you've set up some keys, like seek ahead, seek back, volume up, volume down, ..., go ahead and give them a spin. If you don't like them, you can always go back and change them. One thing I haven't taken the time to do is figure out how to have those keys passed straight through to FooBar2000. So for example, I'll often have to use insert-3 in JFW to have the next key passed through to FooBar2000. I hope this helps. If anyone has any other specific questions, just ask. -- Christopher (CJ) chalt...@gmail.com On 21/12/11 11:20, Casey wrote: Hi I would like to give foobar 2000 a try for playing MP3 files and the like.

Re: update on multi track recorder with speech guidance
Here are the details on this Olympus LS-100, although there is no mention here of speech output: Olympus has announced the latest addition to its popular LS series of digital recorders with the addition of the LS-100 linear PCM audio recorder. Aimed at musicians and audio enthusiasts, it comes with a combination of professional interconnects, high quality sound recording, multitracking and extra features in a convenient pocket size.

From: Johnny Russojohnnyru...@windstream.net Date: Tue, 20 Dec 2011 16:19:14 -0600 Olympus is releasing an 8 track digital recorder, at the beginning of February 2012. The unit features voice guidance for all menus. It includes two built in condenser microphones, as well as two balanced combination XLR quarter inch inputs for high quality microphones, or to connect a mixing board. The built in microphones can handle sound pressure levels up to 140 decibals, so it will record live bands with clarity and no distortion. The LS100 also has
RE: update on multi track recorder with speech guidance
I have the LS-7 and like it. I don't use it for recording music; I'm not a musician, but I have used it to make audio recordings. The audio quality is excellent, especially if you turn ON the central microphone. The LS-7 is about the same size as the DM-series of Olympus recorders, and it has three mics -- two that angle out to either side of the recorder and one in the middle. It does have some weaknesses. I don't like the button placement. Unlike other Olympus recorders, the buttons are on the top, not the sides, so, if you put it in a case, you can push the buttons by mistake. Second, you have to push the Record button twice -- once to put it in pause mode and a second time to actually start recording. In a noisy room, it's often hard for me to hear the beeps that indicate I've pushed it a second time or whether it's gone into Pause mode. Third is the case. The previous Olympus recorders I have owned had a nice case with a kickstandstand on the back that let you position the recorder upright. This recorder has a cheap case, kind of like a glov, you put the recorder into. I hate it. In fact, I'm using one of my old cases for my LS-7. It does have full voice guidance -- except for getting System information (how much memory you have left, etc) and a couple of other menu items that don't read. That's my thumbnail review.
