Question on Shoutcast/WHMSonic
Hello and pardon me for the cross posting, I have used Icecast2 and Centova for some time, but am now looking at Shoutcast and the WHMSonic panel, which is much simpler an definitely more accesible. As most of you know, the great difficulty with Centova is having to drag audio files into the playlists. With WHMSonic you don't have to do that, but I wonder if any of you can help me with two things: First, I haven't found how to show at my webpage the song that is playing or the number of listeners. That was simple with Icecast, but must also be possible with Shoutcast/WHMSonic, because it shows on Tapin Radio. There mus be either PHP or Java Script code to do it. The other thing I need is to configure playlists to play at certain intervals, such as every half hour to identify the station or a promo every three or four songs. I don't know if it is possible, and if so, how to do it. The website for whmsonic.com has only videos with screen capture, no written manual and the FAQs are out of order. I have looked extensively in Google without luck. If someone has a manual for WHMSonic I would greatly appreciate it.

Noise reduction software recommendations please:
I have two up coming projects to work on. One involves removing tape hiss and the other involves removing noise from vinyl records. If I take gold wave and sound fordge out of the picture which I must do, what other stand alone programs can I use to accomplish these tasks. I will consider gold wave only if there are some good plugins to accomplish my tasks cause I don't like gold waves built in noise reduction. I also don't like how gold wave handles previewing and some of the buggs there in. Having said all that recommendations please or have I effectively nailed my coffin shut. Thanks.

Re: Noise reduction software recommendations please:
Hi! The Noise Reduction features of Goldwave seem to do a reasonable job and I recommend this software for 2 reasons, firstly its damn good value for money and secondly the developer and author has gone out of his way to make this software accessible. The next recommendation I'd have is Total Recorder though its Noise Reduction software plugin is an add-on thus you need to pay for it, the plugin isn't expensive and does an affective job in most circumstances. And finally, I won't recommend Sound Forge, firstly I think the product well over priced and secondly the people at Sony Software don't give a damn! about accessibility with their products.

Re: Noise reduction software recommendations please:
Hi Dane. I agree with you about Sony and accessibility. Besides that they haven't updated the separate noise reduction module in 10 years to my knowlege and although it is great there is always room for improvement. I sure do wish Izotope rx2 software was accessible because its the best for noise reduction of any type hands down. I have started to play with their VST plugins which are certainly more useable from an accessibility standpoint then the standalone software but even then none of the edit boxes are labeled or anything so I guess if you have all day to play around you might be able to figure out what they do but I just don't have that kind of time I shouldn't have to waste in the first place. Oh well. Thanks. Don On 4/11/2012 1:16 PM, Dane Trethowan wrote: Hi!

Re: Noise reduction software recommendations please:
Yep points taken, the time considerations you outlined in your post below is another reason why I recommended Goldwave etc, I don't have all day to play either and - generally speaking - the noise reduction in Goldwave and the plugin for Total Recorder do a very reasonable job without having to spend too much time to configure the operation or whatever.

Re: Noise reduction software recommendations please:
Don, I believe that the noise reduction plug-in that comes with Sound Forge is available as a separate purchase. You'd have to be sure that it would work with whatever sound editor you are going to use, though, and it is expensive, some might say over-priced. I have found that the four noise reduction modes that one can select are a plus because they each have somewhat different artifacts that can be less intrusive depending upon the program material. This noise reduction plug-in is not part of Sound Forge Studio. If you haven't yet, you might try a demo of Adobe Audition. However, for it to work well, it needs some support by your screen reader as some information has to be retrieved by means other than an off-screen model. I had pretty good luck with its noise reduction in the past, but I don't know how accessible all of the plug-in parameters are in Adobe Audition any more. I would definitely take some time with the demo before putting out the cash.

You must have been using an old version of GoldWave to not like it. I haven't seen any bugs etc with the latest version and the author gives a darn about accessibility, and that's not from reading either. I trialled GoldWave for several years, and finally bit the bullet by first purchasing a one year license, then the lifetime one. I don't regret it one bit. Same with Total Recorder.

Re: Noise reduction software recommendations please:
Adobe Audition hasn't been very accessible since version 1.5 as far as I keep hearing from other users. Last March 2011 I lost most of my usable eyesight and had to give up using Adobe version 3. They kept talking about coming out with a 64 bit version but I haven't seen a new version yet. I was hoping for a new version and that someone would be able to write Jaws scripts if it wasn't accessible. I found the noise reduction in Adobe Audition 3 to be far superior to anything I've been stuck using in the past 13 months. blind5sparrow -Original Message- From: Steve Jacobson Sent: Wednesday, April 11, 2012 2:00 PM To: pc-audio@pc-audio.org Subject: Re: Noise reduction software recommendations please: Don, I believe that the noise reduction plug-in that comes with Sound Forge is available as a separate purchase.

Re: Noise reduction software recommendations please:
Hi Tim. Well I just downloaded the 64 bit version of depoper and talk about a developer who is concerned about screen reader users this is him. Also it looks like depoper does a very good job of removing tape hiss without much tweaking either. It may be a big winner here and I will certainly pay the $18 for the program. I also like groove mechanic but it deeds to be more configurable in some cases to do the job and well he hasn't updated it in years unfortunately.

Hi Chris. I quite agree with you on most points. The developer is awesome! when it comes to his concern for accessibility. I have used gold wave on and off for many many years and purchased a full license for it way back in the very early 90s. I don't regret that purchase. I have the latest version on my machine as I type this and frankly yes there are buggs. I don't know of many programs that don't have some so this is not a criticism at all. I don't happen to like the noise reduction capabilities in goldwave myself but that I gguess can be a matter of personal preference. I do wish that the preview options were bettter designed in gold wave and that switching presets while previewing would always take effect immediately, sometimes it works and sometimes it doesn't. I also wish the preview button was a toggle instead of having to go over to the stop button. I also wish it had a bypass checkbox and also a way to listen to the output of only the removed noise as other programs do. Having said all that, for the money you just can't beat it.

Re: Noise reduction software recommendations please:
Thanks Steve. I appreciate your comments. Yes there was someone writing scripts for Adobe Audition for window eyes but I guess that project may have died on the vine maybe due to changes in the audition software that just couldn't be worked around. I don't know. I do have sound forge 8 and the noise reduction module but have heard that version 8 is not compatible with 64 bit windows 7 so haven't tried installing any of it.

I don't know that Izotope was accessible as a Winamp plugin, but wanted to put it in the so called virtual air chain when I did some shows with Station Playlist.

Re: Noise reduction software recommendations please:
I guess we can be thankful for the amount of choice out there. I've had quite a bit of success with the Noise Reduction of Goldwave and I've not needed to do much to get the results I've been after, if I remember correctly I think I wrote an article on this some time ago to the list so it will be in the list archives somewhere I'm sure smile, the best way to handle the Goldwave Noise Reduction - as with most other noise reduction software and plugins - was to reduce noise in a Step-by-step and Gradual process rather than trying to reduce all the noise at once. The next step was to ensure you got a good Capture of the noise to use in the reduction process. No, the noise reduction facilities of Goldwave, Total Recorder and even Sound Forge aren't professional grade however they all do a pretty good job given what they are and I'd go so far as to say that the noise reduction facilities of Goldwave and Total Recorder probably surpass that of Sound Forge given that no development of the Sound Forge Noise Reduction software has taken place to my knowledge since the old Sonic Foundry days. The best ever noise reduction system I've used is with Amadeus Pro for the Mac, leaves everything I'e used on a Windows machine behind but not everyone has a Mac unfortunately so you'll all have to do the best you can smile.

Re: Noise reduction software recommendations please:
Ok all software have bugs but we all do not experience any or all of them. GoldWave, Total Recorder, Noise Reduction, etc, are no exceptions. Christopher Hallsworth On 11/04/2012 20:09, Don Breda wrote: Hi Chris. I quite agree with you on most points. The developer is awesome! when it comes to his concern for accessibility. I have used gold wave on and off for many many years and purchased a full license for it way back in the very early 90s. I don't regret that purchase. I have the latest version on my machine as I type this and frankly yes there are buggs. I don't know of many programs that don't have some so this is not a criticism at all. I don't happen to like the noise reduction capabilities in goldwave myself but that I gguess can be a matter of personal preference. I do wish that the preview options were bettter designed in gold wave and that switching presets while previewing would always take effect immediately, sometimes it works and sometimes it doesn't. I also wish the preview button was a toggle instead of having to go over to the stop button. I also wish it had a bypass checkbox and also a way to listen to the output of only the removed noise as other programs do. Having said all that, for the money you just can't beat it. To say its a bargain is tipucal british understatement grin! Don On 4/11/2012 2:18 PM, chris hallsworth wrote: You must have been using an old version of GoldWave to not like it. I haven't seen any bugs etc with the latest version and the author gives a darn about accessibility, and that's not from reading either. I trialled GoldWave for several years, and finally bit the bullet by first purchasing a one year license, then the lifetime one. I don't regret it one bit. Same with Total Recorder. The author gives a darn about accessibility, trialled it for several years, bought the lifetime license some two years ago and don't regret that either.

Re: Noise reduction software recommendations please:
Merv, I was frustrated when I could no longer use Audition 1.5, it was what I used for quite some time. Audition 2 was not very accessible at all. Audition 3 his kind of hit or miss. There is a Window-Eyes App for it that seems to bring it to life some, but I still found gaps. However, one's ability to explore the screen with the mouse pointer or JAWS Cursor in Audition 2 and 3 isn't good at all since text is displayed in a way that is not visible to screen readers off-screen models. I had also heard there were JFW scripts for it as well but don't have any experience with them. Someone asked where you can get a demo, and I believe one can still get one on the Adobe web site.

I was hoping for a new version and that someone would be able to write Jaws scripts if it wasn't accessible.

Re: LS100 as an audio interface
I was trying to decide between saving for that and a used acoustic guitar at a pawn shop my best friend manages. Unfortunately, I had to use the $300 I had saved on a bill yesterday. This thread makes me glad I didn't by the Olympus. blind5sparrow -Original Message- From: Steve Matzura Sent: Wednesday, April 11, 2012 7:06 PM To: PC Audio Discussion List Subject: Re: LS100 as an audio interface The problem is, nobody knows just what kind of thing it is--hardware or firmware, and Olympus disavows any knowledge of its existence.

Yeah, not cool for $400. That's very sad. It's very sad that the DM-4 does it too. It's another $400 unit.
