Re: Computer to Stereo System
That's right, at line-out voltages you won't suffer significant attenuation for a very long distance. What you may suffer, if the cable's long enough, is slightly diminished highs due to significant capacitance within the cable.

I believe you use the control and shift plus the space bar to stop and start the wave file. Once you get to the point you wish to edit, left bracket and right bracket are used. Press left bracket to mark the beginning of the whatever it is you won't taken out, and right bracket to highlight the end. Then press the delete key.

Re: Cooledit questions
the record/stop-recording is control-spacebar chord. Editing a .wav file is pretty straightforward using the right-and left-arrow keysto move the start-time back and forth; the shift+right- or left-arrow keys to move the end-time. However the one disadvantage in cool edit is that there seems to be no way of instantly moving your edit point to a particular part of the file. You simply hafta use the arrow keys and be patient. That's why God invented snacks. Anyway, with the JAWS cursor you can read the information you need. Jayn - Original Message - From: Dave Marthouse [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: PC audio discussion list.

Re: What sample rate should I use to record from a specific source?
Jay here, What really matters is: 1. what do your ears hear and 2. do yo0u intend to make a cd of the stuff you record. I'd try test-recording stuff that has large dynamic range so you can hear whether or not the soft sounds sound better at 32-bits. If you can hear that difference then you might as well use it if yopu have the disk space, but then you'll hafta convert it to 16-bit if you plan to make a cd of it.; At a sampling rate of 32khz you're still getting an upper frequency response of 16khz. There again, try recording music that has a lot of percussion with high-frequency transients such as xylophones and other struck things and see if you hear the difference. This sorta thing takes patience, but it's both worthwhile and instructive to determine what's overkill and what's not. \Then again, you might contact the purveyor and ask some questions as to the specs of the feed. - Original Message - From: Aman Singer [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: 'PC audio discussion list.

How do I know if that quality is enough to justify, or will be captured by, a 44,100 sampling rate and 16 bit recording? That is, how do I know that if I tried to record at 48 KHZ or tried to increase the bit depth that the audio quality wouldn't improve?

The more you increase either the sample rate or the bit depth or both the quality of the recording will go up. The higher the quality, the larger the recording. The increase in the size of the recording is directly proportional to any increase in these parameters. The sample rate relates to fidelity. If the sample rate is x then the highest frequency that will show up in the recording is x/2. Bit Depth is related to dynamics. The larger the bit rate the more dynamic the recording. Stick with the RCA outputs. There is no audio information in S-Video. Chirp|Chirp|Chirp: It's the Bat, Chirping Bat .Com ! New DEC-TALK USB: $650.00, www.chirpingbat.com/dectalkusb.shtml !

Hi, Aman, That gadjet's probably delivering good audio, so I'd use 44.1khz/16-bit to record it. I can't speak for others's ears, but mine wouldn't notice any improvement from higher sampling and bit rates. As to making mp3s from your 22.5khz files, if they are mainly speech, I'd get by with 56k bit, but if music is involved, I'd go for something like 112k bit, just to make sure you're not getting audio artifacts that you'll be sorry about.

Where do I instruct the beast? 2. Also, in some sites winamp is used to play the resident mp3s but in other sites it appears that windows media is used. How come? and 3. There are some sites that, in my old netscape, allowed downloading of the resident mp3s. I'm now using internet explorer and in the same site, the files just play and I can't find any indication of how to download them. With one exception: one day either I changed something or some poltergeist did so in one of those sites, when I went there indicated I could download the resident mp3s. Thanks much for clearing up these foggies. Jay ___ PC-Audio List Help, Guidelines, Archives and more... http://www.pc-audio.org To unsubscribe from this list, send a blank email to: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
re: burning cd's with nero
Wheeew! I finally found it! I knew I'd stumbled on the easy way to compile and order files in nero, but as usual, I found it bashing and crashing around and later, never remembered how I did it. But anyway, once you've selected a new compilation and have set it to do an audio cd, tab to where it says tree view and select your hard drive or whichever drive contains the stuff you want on the cd. Then, tab to new. Hit alt so you're in the menus and right-arrow to edit. Down arrow to add and you can now shift-tab back to treeview and pick the folder where the files resice and keep hitting enter til you get to the list of files. Then, pick each file in the order you wantum to appear on the cd and tab forward to add. Keep doing that til done and tab to finish. Now you're ready to burn the thing.

Re: Using Nero to copy a CD
Hi, Neronians, Now this is weird. I've installed Nero 6.6 and when I try to run startsmart it says it can't because some files are missing, but gives no clue as to which ones those are. Yet, I can run burning-rom or express and do just fine. Is this worth worrying about or might I just as well carry on?

Re: running nero 6.6 demo
Jay here, Sounds like Kevin's suggestions are what some of you have been looking for but possibly, inadvertently deleted it. Actually, I mucked around some and finally discovered that I could go to the directory (oh, I guess we call 'em folders now) and select the files I wanted to burn to the cd and use the add function and thyus, get them in the order I want. I've only managted that once, so I don't remember all the wandering I did to get there, but I know I checked out various menus to do it. But now, here's how Kevin dood it.

Tab to Next and press enter. 4.. Now choose the format of the CD you would like to burn. Select Audio from the radio buttons if you want a CD that will play in standard CD players or select Data if you want a CD that will be used to contain MP3 tracks that will only be played in an MP3 player. Tab to Next and press enter. 5.. Press enter on the Finish button and the compilation window will be in focus. 6.. Use the keystroke windows + E to start Windows Explorer. 7.. Locate the tracks you wish to add to your compilation by browsing the folders on your hard drive where they reside. 8.. For selected tracks, use the keystroke control + C to copy them to the clipboard. 9.. Press alt + tab to bring the Nero compilation window back into focus. 10.. Use the keystroke control + V to paste the tracks into the compilation. 11.. Repeat steps 7 through 10 until you have added all of the tracks you want to include in your compilation. 12.. You may now want to reorder the tracks in your compilation. To do this, use the keystroke control + X to cut the track to the keyboard then use the up and down arrow keys to locate the track that you wish to immediately follow the track you've just cut to the clipboard. Use the keystroke control + V to paste the track into the compilation and it will then appear at this point. NOTE: this reordering is only possible if you have chose audio format and not possible for data format. 13.. When you are ready to burn your compilation, close all running applications so that Nero is not competing for your computer's resources. 14.. To burn the compilation, press alt + F to open the file menu and then press W to open the Burn dialogue. 15.. Tab to the Burn button and press enter.

Thanks, Kevin. Actually I mucked around enough and found the add button and all that and managed to burn a cd, but I'm glad to have a set of reliable controls that you've tested.

Re: question about CD burners and software
Hi, I'm sher you'll get more specific replies, but I do know that in most such programs there are options you can choose that do change burning characteristics. This does presume what to me, at least, are pretty advanced notions of when and why one would change from the defaults. The defaults assume that you wanna play the thing on a conventional machine in a conventional way etc. Jay At 03:21 AM 10/6/04 -0700, you wrote: This question may seem a bit confusing in how I am asking. Does the software one uses have any affect on the burning of a CD and are there burners that burn better than others. I come from an analogue background where everything is a part of the result, source, type of recorder, setting levels, and so on. If I find a burning software program I like, will it matter which one, and will the end result then be dependent on my burner, and are their higher quality burners. thank you ___ PC-Audio List Help, Guidelines, Archives and more... http://www.pc-audio.org To unsubscribe from this list, send a blank email to: [EMAIL PROTECTED] ___ PC-Audio List Help, Guidelines, Archives and more... http://www.pc-audio.org To unsubscribe from this list, send a blank email to: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Re: Pitches
The A above middle C is a frequency of 440hz. You can calculate any other pitch by applying multiples of 1.0594631 (1.06 is, of course a pretty good approximation.) Thus the C above that A is 523.3 and middle C is 26o1.5. That 1.0594631 is the 12th root of 2 and that's used because our system divides the octave, a ratio of 2 to 1, into 12 equal parts. In order for those equal parts to be in fact equidistant, you must use a logarithmic rather than an arithmetic division.

Re: Changing CDexoutput directory
Hi, Norma, Open the cdex.ini file so you can modify it. Under general there's a line after the one saying what directory you wabnt mp3s to output to. Modifying that line seems not to do any good. Go to the next line that starts with cmvoutput, and then put in the direcorry you want, remembering to delete everything after the c:\ first. That oughta do it. Just for safety's sake, change all directories in such lines to whatever you wish and save a backup copy of the original in case you need to start from scratch.

Re: removing crackle when converting vinyl recordings
I don't know depopper but it's nice to know of other things people use and like. The one I use is wave corrector it does miracles right out of the box and even though it's graphics aren't accessible to us, I don't think it matters much. It costs $45 u.s. and it does have a lot of cool features including, get this, a setting that automatically changes the speed of a .wav file such that if you have a 78 rpm stylus but not a 78 rpm speed, you can record the record at 45 and the program will jack it up to the proper speed.

Re: removing crackle when converting vinyl recordings
Hi, Larry, I doubt there's anything either of us can do beyond what we can read in the dialog boxes, that's true. So I'm curious to try the other program for comparisson. I don't remember how I happened on Wave Corector, but I do remember that I needed something to run other than the click/pop remover in Cooledit cuz it ran slower than a snail in winter on my old pooder. If I wanna just remove one offensive pop, I use cool edit to select just that bit and save it and then use wave corrector to doctor up only that bit. Now, with my faster machine, I may have a fightin' chance with Cool Edit. Thanks to you guys for the other recommendations. Jay At 01:05 PM 8/16/04 -0400, you wrote: Hi Jay. Actually I have a copy of Wave Corrector and have used its automatic scan features to remove pops and clicks. But I can't figure out how to access some of its features that let you edit manually. I can't even make it stop when playing. I can preview a corrected file by hitting the space bar and pause it using space, but can't find how to stop it.
