the part you normally hold in your fingers goes in first towards the bottom, 
then you lay the stem down so that it is pointing towards the top of the 
headset.  Then take the cap with the dot pointing at  the dot on the headset 
then twist right.

actually, there is an opening on the left hand side of the h800. There's 
a pannel that you turn a quarter turn to the left, then let the pannel 
fall open.  You'll then see the battery, and a slot for the nano receiver.

Hi Evan.  I recently got a new Win 7 machine to replace my Vista machine
that died; since I've got the Hope program transferred to the new machine
before the old one died, I went to the program and looked for the Options
section; there should be a button that says something like resend my
activation key.  I did this, got my key, pasted it in where it needed to go
and Hope is now running on both my Win 7 mechines.  You might try running
the program and put in your Pandora login info, then there should be a
dialog with a Resend activation key button; give this a shot.  If Hope
support isn't writing back that can really suck.  I understand the suthor is
not so nice when people write him with questions, so try what I mentioned
above.  Thanks.

Hey Guys,
I have an activated copy of Hope for Pandora on my old Vista machine. I
installed it onto my new Windows 7 machine, but apparently I need to
activate it before I can use it. I wrote to Support ten days ago but have
gotten no response. Do I have to buy the program again to get it to work on
this new machine? I kind of resent having to do that, especially from a
company that promises support but apparently doesn’t really provide it.
Anyone have any ideas as to how I can get my legally purchased copy of Hope

Thanks much.

Hi.  I bought a digital audio converter from Amazon for less than $20.  I do 
not remember the manufacturer, but you should be able to find what you need.  
You connect the Apple TV to the DAC with an optical cable and the box has left

helps.

Re: Connecting Apple Tv to an older receiver with RCA aux/ins

2014-05-02 Thread Steve Jacobson
Brad,

There are two ways I know of to get analog outputs from an Apple TV.  First, I 
needed to use an older TV with our 
Apple TV and I bought a small converter for around $35 through Amazon that has 
an HDMI input and two Analog Out and 
a video out.  I ended up running the analog out to a stereo instead and it 
sounded good.  an HDMI cable was not 
included nor is a power supply, but I had to run mine from a USB power source 
for it to run reliably.  There is also 
a switch that allows one to choose between two color display systems.  

Second, there is an audio optical output on the Apple TV and there are 
converters that will convert from Optical 
output to Analog output.  I believe I saw those on Amazon as well.  

Best regards,

Steve Jacobson

Bossjock DJ Software For iPhone

2014-05-02 Thread Dane Trethowan
Hi!

I'm teaching myself how to use this App, its straight forward but there are 
many options and settings available so mastering the basics is easy enough but 
getting the hang of how everything works will take some time.

I've worked out how to Mix tracks I think as the below sample will show, 
interested in comments.

Before I give you the link to the MP3 file however, let's take a basic tour of 
BossJock.

When Bossjock is opened  you're presented with a series of cart players - how 
many appear are entirely up to you - next to each on the right is a series of 
faders and so on.

At the bottom of the screen are various different elements, an area for taking 
notes, microphone trigger/lock buttons, a record button to either record your 
broadcast or send it live to the Internet/Network and then a series of tabs 
which are labeled Studio, Recordings and Settings, all 3 are obvious.

In the Recordings tab is where you import your music/jingles from Dropbox, 
your iTunes music library, iCloud or other Wi-Fi device on your network, these 
can then be loaded into your cart decks under the Studio tab.

The Recordings' tab is also the place where recordings you make from Bossjock 
are found, they can be Exported to Wave format etc and from that uploaded to 
Dropbox and so on.

Here's the link to the sample MP3 I created 
https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/10565527/2014-05-03-08%3A02%3A52.mp3
If link doesn't work the first time then try again in a few minutes, file may 
still be uploading to Dropbox.

Digital To Analogue Converters (DAC)

2014-05-02 Thread Dane Trethowan
Hep good suggestion, I use a DAC all the time though it didn't cost me $20 
smile, mine is an Audiphile unit from Rotel with very nice specs.

If you use something like an iPhone, iPad, Ipod Touch or another smart phone 
and you like your music then a DAC compatible with your device would be a very 
worth while investment given the excellent gains in audio quality you'll 
experience, I bought a DAC for my iPhone a little while back for $60 
Australian, there are a whole range of DAC devices to cater for just about 
every audio need on the planet, for a good range have a look at
