can play and then loop wile the actual text is converted and the songs
play til the text is finish. So at the end you end up with one audio
file containing your text plus music, you can specify the volume and

Steve: balabolka does not offer background audio, and it does not
offer to sync your files with ITunes after finished. And I'm not even
sure if you can insert tags for voice, speed, and audio clips in the
middle of the text like you can all do with text aloud. Yes it cost
some, but at least its worth it. And its not just one developer who do
everything and who can stop it any time or start charching money
anytime he feels like. And I just generally am carefull of open sorce
software, but that last point I guess is just me. Its not a bad
program, but I also find text aloud easyer to use, and those features
I'm willing to pay for.

It has all the same features I reckon.  What's missing in Balabolka?

With Audio files, you can edit many of the properties using Windows 
Explorer.  Select the file and press ALT-Enter.  There is a TAB, the 
"Details" tab, that will let you look at and edit many properties such as
title, artist, supporting artist, etc.  You will see the values in a list, 
but if you pick one and start typing, you can then TAB between them.

Hello Tom and all,

The short answer is that you place the album in the directories you want by
using the "Output Folder" option and/or the browse button/browse folder
option  the "browse" button on the main express rip screen.

If that's all you need to know, stop reading here, otherwise:
The detailed answer is:

When you go into express rip and tab past the slots for artist, album year,
track listing and so on, you'll come to an option that says:
Output folder. This is a list of the nine most recently used locations,
which you can up-arrow and down arrow through. If your chosen location is in
the list of nine, once you've found it, tab on to rip the CD and the folder
for the album will go there. That location then becomes the top item in the
list of nine.
If your desired location isn't on the list, tab again once, and you get to a
'browse Button. Press the space bar to select 'ok. You should now hear:
'Browse for folder.  Use the up, down, left and right arrows to find the
folder you want, just as you would on Sendspace or the 'Save As' option of
MS Word. When you're pointing at the folder you want, tab to "OK and select
it. Then when you rip. That will be the folder where your album will go.
Once again, it will become the first item in your list of nine until change
location again.  
Warning: If you try to rip from a CD and can't find the album where you
expect it to go, though you've done all of the above, try again, first
checking for and removing any trailing spaces in the artist name or album
title. This is necessary because thrailing spaces in those slots damage the
path name. It may be wise to edit the track names too, to get rid of any
trailing spaces there.
cause Express Rip to panic and throw your album into the 'my music directory
on your main data drive.

In case it helps, I put my albums under Genre, with a sub folder for each
artist, and a sub folder within artist for each album title. So: I would
look for H:\my music\rock in the folder list or the browse option. If I were
ripping the Hysteria album by Deaf leppard, the artist and title slots on
the main screen would give a location of:

H:\my music\rock\deff leppard\hysteria.

Best,
Clive

Re: a files property question

2014-06-28 Thread Steve Jacobson
With Audio files, you can edit many of the properties using Windows Explorer.  
Select the file and press ALT-Enter.  There is a TAB, the "Details" tab, that 
will let you look at and edit many properties such as 
title, artist, supporting artist, etc.  You will see the values in a list, but 
if you pick one and start typing, you can then TAB between them.  

Best regards,

Steve Jacobson

A variant on the thread about cdex. I had the same problem with ripping with 
Cdex with an album. I manually wrote in the proper information on the tracks 
themselves but while playing the track with windows media player the 
information is still the same audio track one etc.. How do I manually 
replace the information so it shows in the property menu while playing the 
track? the tracks

How is the audio quality with Spodify? I use iTunes Radio all the time but, 
honestly there is a great deal of compression and/or low bit rate streaming in 
it. There is an obvious loss of audio quality.

No.  The app is simply called Spotify, and you need a Spotify Premium 
subscription to use it which currently costs £9.99 per month.  Free accounts 
are limited to the functionality you describe.

2014-06-28 Thread Dan Kerstetter
You might try Express Scribe from NCH Software at:

http://www.nch.com.au/index.html

Its primary use is transcription.  One of the options in the options menu is
setting up speech recognition.  It will create a text draft of a file.

I haven't tried this particular option so I can't vouch for its accuracy.

Yes, you can indeed use all the SAPI voices installed in your computer, I
tried it with a Loquendo voice and an AT&T voice.

The Lame folder you download from the internet, uncompress  and save to your
hard drive; the first time you try to convert text to MP3, the program will
ask you for its location; you enter the full path to lame.exe and that's
all, the program will do the rest.  Alternatively, you may copy the lame.exe
and lamenc.dll to the folder where the program resides.

There is nothing strange about that, Lame is free to the private user, but
it cannot be distributed with free audio software, only the ones you pay for
include it.

I keep a copy of Lame always available for these cases, if you do not have
it, just look for it in Google, it is free to download and use.  When you
convert text to MP3 with this or any other free software, it will ask you
for the location of Lame unless, as Sunshine pointed out, you previously
copy the files to its folder.

Sunshine is also right about its speed, it is slower than for instance,
Balabolka, but I don't think that is a major concern, accuracy is much more
important and time will tell how accurate it is.

Hello list:  A couple of days ago or so, I posted a question concerning an

Quicktime on my machine in anticipation of getting something that uses 
that

program to play the file!  It used to be that when I would download these
podcasts, it would give me the choice whether to listen or to save.  Since
I've put Quicktime on here, when I click the link, it immediately opens
Quicktime and starts playing the file; this is _not_ want I want!  Is 
there
a way around this problem?  Must I uninstall Qu9icktime in order to do 
what

I want?  I sure hope not, for what I am hoping to get (so it would seem)
will only play in Quicktime; it's a video that was taken of a part of a
country Christmas show our band was involved in!  So if anyone can come up
with a way around this problem I have (seems to me all I'd need to do is 
to

tell Quicktime to just "sit down and shut up until I need it".but I have
found no way to accomplish this!  Any ideas?  Thanks in advance!

Subject: Re: Adobe Audition centre channel extract



Laurence,

I used Audition 1.5 for a long time, and liked it.  There are two things I 
can suggest.  First,make sure that the sound you are hearing is really 
part of the file
and not a problem with Audition's playback.  Create the file using the 
center channel extractor and then play it with another program such as 
Windows

Media Player.

Second, I was thinking that the center channel extractor did more than 
just combine channels, and it is possible that combining channels will do 
most of
what you want to do.  Try just combining channels and see whether it 
avoids the problem and gets you most of the way there or not.  I think 
there is an
item to do that but don't remember where it is any more, or you can 
probably do it by creating a monaural file.


I had to let Audition go  because I couldn't get it to install on a 64-bit 
system.  It was more complicated than that as I had upgraded from previous 
versions
and couldn't install one of the previous versions that was required.  I 
wonder, though, if there could be some incompatibility with Windows 7.


Best regards,

Steve Jacobson

I am using Audition 1.5 to clean up recording of old 78rpm records.



The main process involves the "Centre Channel Extract" function
(since most surface noise is out of phase), and it works very
well, often needing nothing else to be done.



However, the resulting file has a low-level repeated burst of
phase distortion, a sort of "meep ... meep ... meep", which can
be very distracting.



I've tried playing with the settings but nothing seems to help
much, likewise filtering doesn't assist as the meeps are too
wideband.



Any ideas as to what it cold be and whay I could do about it, or
is it just something I'll have to put up with? (Up with which I
will have to put).



It's certainly much better than the frying bacon that was there

to have a help file in plain text,  since there is no help menu that I can
find.  As far as the Lame files, just look for lame.exe in Google and you
will be able to download it free, then either copy the .exe and .dll to the

you for the location of Lame.

Hi
Thank you. I know about this already. At what point were you asked to point 
at the two lame files in order to get it to work? I believe they are 
required in order to convert to MP3 format.

There is nothing strange about that, Lame is free to the private user, but
it cannot be distributed with free audio software, only the ones you pay for
include it.

I keep a copy of Lame always available for these cases, if you do not have
it, just look for it in Google, it is free to download and use.  When you
convert text to MP3 with this or any other free software, it will ask you
for the location of Lame unless, as Sunshine pointed out, you previously
copy the files to its folder.

Sunshine is also right about its speed, it is slower than for instance,
Balabolka, but I don't think that is a major concern, accuracy is much more
important and time will tell how accurate it is.

Hmmm, the difference in size is considerable and puzzling.  It would be nice
to have a help file in plain text,  since there is no help menu that I can
find.  As far as the Lame files, just look for lame.exe in Google and you
will be able to download it free, then either copy the .exe and .dll to the
program's folder or simply try to convert some text to MP3 and it will ask
you for the location of Lame.

Re: Adobe Audition centre channel extract

2014-06-28 Thread Steve Jacobson
Laurence,

I used Audition 1.5 for a long time, and liked it.  There are two things I can 
suggest.  First,make sure that the sound you are hearing is really part of the 
file 
and not a problem with Audition's playback.  Create the file using the center 
channel extractor and then play it with another program such as Windows 
Media Player.  

Second, I was thinking that the center channel extractor did more than just 
combine channels, and it is possible that combining channels will do most of 
what you want to do.  Try just combining channels and see whether it avoids the 
problem and gets you most of the way there or not.  I think there is an 
item to do that but don't remember where it is any more, or you can probably do 
it by creating a monaural file.  

I had to let Audition go  because I couldn't get it to install on a 64-bit 
system.  It was more complicated than that as I had upgraded from previous 
versions 
and couldn't install one of the previous versions that was required.  I wonder, 
though, if there could be some incompatibility with Windows 7.

Best regards,

Steve Jacobson

Subject: RE: For Tom and his Express Rip problem

Hello Tom and all,

The short answer is that you place the album in the directories you want by
using the "Output Folder" option and/or the browse button/browse folder
option  the "browse" button on the main express rip screen.

If that's all you need to know, stop reading here, otherwise:
The detailed answer is:

When you go into express rip and tab past the slots for artist, album year,
track listing and so on, you'll come to an option that says:
Output folder. This is a list of the nine most recently used locations,
which you can up-arrow and down arrow through. If your chosen location is in
the list of nine, once you've found it, tab on to rip the CD and the folder
for the album will go there. That location then becomes the top item in the
list of nine.
If your desired location isn't on the list, tab again once, and you get to a
'browse Button. Press the space bar to select 'ok. You should now hear:
'Browse for folder.  Use the up, down, left and right arrows to find the
folder you want, just as you would on Sendspace or the 'Save As' option of
MS Word. When you're pointing at the folder you want, tab to "OK and select
it. Then when you rip. That will be the folder where your album will go.
Once again, it will become the first item in your list of nine until change
location again.  
Warning: If you try to rip from a CD and can't find the album where you
expect it to go, though you've done all of the above, try again, first
checking for and removing any trailing spaces in the artist name or album
title. This is necessary because thrailing spaces in those slots damage the
path name. It may be wise to edit the track names too, to get rid of any
trailing spaces there.
cause Express Rip to panic and throw your album into the 'my music directory
on your main data drive.

In case it helps, I put my albums under Genre, with a sub folder for each
artist, and a sub folder within artist for each album title. So: I would
look for H:\my music\rock in the folder list or the browse option. If I were
ripping the Hysteria album by Deaf leppard, the artist and title slots on
the main screen would give a location of:

H:\my music\rock\deff leppard\hysteria.

Best,
Clive

CDEX will put track number and name and title or what ever you want.

Thanks Walter; seems like every CD Ripper has it's good and bad points!
This MP3 Ripper seems to be good; only thing so far I don't like is that it
puts things in "computer"...so far, don't know if there's any way to change

Thanks for the tip; will remember that if I need to use Express Rip again!
In case anybody is still following this and you're interested, I ripped
another Hank Williams boxed set last night, using CDEX; it did fine!  It
gave me all the track info I needed!  But it sure wouldn't do it with that
other boxed set!  Go figure!

Adobe Audition centre channel extract

2014-06-28 Thread Laurence Taylor
This is what used to be called Cool Edit.

I am using Audition 1.5 to clean up recording of old 78rpm records.

The main process involves the "Centre Channel Extract" function
(since most surface noise is out of phase), and it works very
well, often needing nothing else to be done.

However, the resulting file has a low-level repeated burst of
phase distortion, a sort of "meep ... meep ... meep", which can
be very distracting.

I've tried playing with the settings but nothing seems to help
much, likewise filtering doesn't assist as the meeps are too
wideband.

Any ideas as to what it cold be and whay I could do about it, or
is it just something I'll have to put up with? (Up with which I
will have to put).

It's certainly much better than the frying bacon that was there
before!

RE: For Tom and his Express Rip problem

2014-06-28 Thread Clive Lever
Hello Tom and all,

The short answer is that you place the album in the directories you want by
using the "Output Folder" option and/or the browse button/browse folder
option  the "browse" button on the main express rip screen.

If that's all you need to know, stop reading here, otherwise:
The detailed answer is:

When you go into express rip and tab past the slots for artist, album year,
track listing and so on, you'll come to an option that says:
Output folder. This is a list of the nine most recently used locations,
which you can up-arrow and down arrow through. If your chosen location is in
the list of nine, once you've found it, tab on to rip the CD and the folder
for the album will go there. That location then becomes the top item in the
list of nine.
If your desired location isn't on the list, tab again once, and you get to a
'browse Button. Press the space bar to select 'ok. You should now hear:
'Browse for folder.  Use the up, down, left and right arrows to find the
folder you want, just as you would on Sendspace or the 'Save As' option of
MS Word. When you're pointing at the folder you want, tab to "OK and select
it. Then when you rip. That will be the folder where your album will go.
Once again, it will become the first item in your list of nine until change
location again.  
Warning: If you try to rip from a CD and can't find the album where you
expect it to go, though you've done all of the above, try again, first
checking for and removing any trailing spaces in the artist name or album
title. This is necessary because thrailing spaces in those slots damage the
path name. It may be wise to edit the track names too, to get rid of any
trailing spaces there.
cause Express Rip to panic and throw your album into the 'my music directory
on your main data drive.

In case it helps, I put my albums under Genre, with a sub folder for each
artist, and a sub folder within artist for each album title. So: I would
look for H:\my music\rock in the folder list or the browse option. If I were
ripping the Hysteria album by Deaf leppard, the artist and title slots on
the main screen would give a location of:

H:\my music\rock\deff leppard\hysteria.

Best,
Clive
