So on Monday I went and picked it up. It is terrific. I am really glad that I kept looking, and that I sent the Sony back. I don't have the bleed in with my NPR station like I did with that Sony, and I am very happy about this. Also, for the last three nights, I've listened to WSM an AM station out of Tennessee. This station is the home of the Grand Ole Opry. I've never been able to pick up this station before, so this is just cool! I haven't really gotten around to messing with the tape deck, or CD player yet. But I have no doubt that I will like them. I did test the tape deck while looking at the display model. The price on the Aiwa website is less than what I paid, but I don't mind. I think the price was definitely worth it. Here is the model number for anyone who's interested. CSD-DX51 This thing sounds absolutely wonderful. There are still some buttons that I haven't figured out. And it took me a day or two to get used to where things were. But now it's not as confusing to me. However, one thing I don't understand, is why I seem to have four buttons for going threw the radio stations. If I'm using the two on the right, and I lock on a channel, but then switch using the left buttons, I'll end up back on the last station. If I go back to using the right two buttons. I was wondering if maybe there are two FM bands, but I wasn't sure if that was possible. And the info you get from the Aiwa website, doesn't say anything about that.

If anyone would like to educate me as to how one little program that does one little job, could possibly become worth, such a huge figure to one company to pay, to acquire another, I'd reeally love to understand this. something about the world I just don't get here yet obviously. ... goodness, one more thing! grin. From an article on the Betanews site: Death Knell Sounds for Nullsoft, Winamp By Nate Mook , BetaNews November 10, 2004, 1:26 PM The last members of the original Winamp team have said goodbye to AOL and the door has all but shut on the Nullsoft era, BetaNews has learned. Only a few employees remain to prop up the once-ubiquitous digital audio player with minor updates, but no further improvements to Winamp are expected. \ Winamp's demise comes as no surprise to those close to the company who say the software has been on life support since the resignation of Nullsoft founder and Winamp creator Justin Frankel last January. The marriage of Nullsoft and AOL was always one of discontent. After AOL acquired the small company in 1999 for around $100 million, the young team of Winamp developers was assimilated into a strict corporate culture that begged for rebellion. Although Nullsoft was initially given a long leash by AOL, It wasn't long until the two ideologies collided. Frankel and his team were accustomed to simply brainstorming ideas over coffee and bringing them to the masses without approval. So when Frankel and fellow Nullsoft developer Tom Pepper devised a decentralized peer-to-peer file sharing system, dubbed Gnutella, parent AOL was left in the dark. Gnutella was unveiled in March 2000, much to the chagrin of an unprepared AOL; executives feared the program would encourage copyright infringement and damage the company's pending merger with Time Warner. AOL quickly clamped down on Gnutella, but not before the software's source code leaked. Gnutella-based alternatives soon followed, igniting a peer-to-peer land grab that has yet to subside. But AOL knew it had to protect its investment and turn a profit from the freely available Winamp. Frankel and crew found themselves in hot water numerous times, but always escaped with little more than a proverbial slap on the wrist. However, growing displeasure reached a boiling point with Nullsoft's unsanctioned release of WASTE -- an encrypted file-sharing network -- in June 2003. Frankel threatened to resign after AOL removed WASTE , but remained with the company long enough to finish Winamp 5.0. Frankel's departure followed AOL layoffs and the closure of Nullsoft's San Francisco offices in December 2003. With AOL struggling to stave off declining subscriber numbers and 700 additional layoffs planned for next month, the company's focus has shifted away from supporting acquisitions such as Winamp. Despite the somber farewell, Nullsoft's former masterminds are proud of their accomplishments. Winamp helped start a digital audio revolution and boasts an incredible 60 million users per month. After a disappointing Winamp3 , Nullsoft developers returned to the drawing board and completed long-standing goals with the release of Winamp 5.0 in late 2003. Nullsoft's Shoutcast , which pioneered audio streaming over the Internet, is called the Net's best secret by its creator Tom Pepper and has reached 170,000 simultaneous users accounting for 70 million hours of listening each month. For its part, AOL says it remains committed to Winamp, stating it is a thriving product that AOL continues to support and will continue to support. But without those who poured their heart and soul into building the software, Winamp seems destined to meet a fate similar to fellow audio player Sonique , after Lycos saw the departure of its development team. Sonique has stagnated for years, and development ceased altogether last March. mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] When you have eliminated the impossible. whatever remains, however improbable, must be the truth. *** END FORWARDED MESSAGE *** Regards Steve, mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Skype: steve1963 MSN Messenger:

It is not apropriated for professional uses, of course, but is very simple to use, it is free and doesn't require any kind of configuration. The software was not created especifically for handicapped people (by the way, I'm not blind), but several blind users were able to use it without any problem. Once the program is started, it is ready to play. Some settings like Volume, Instrument and Chords can be defined using the keys from F1 to F12 (the keys are already programmed to perform theese actions). If you are able to see a little, or have some friend that can describe an image for you, ask him to access this : http://pianoeletronico.tripod.com/images/piano_tela.gif . It is a screenshot of the main screen of the program, it shows how simple and easy to use the program is. One of the most interesting things in the program is the fact that you can play using any one of the 128 Instrument Set (from Gerenal MIDI Standard), and even press more than one key at the same time to play poliphonically. Play music using the computer keyboard may seen pointless if you have a real piano or eletronic keyboard, but consider the possibility to play anytime, anywere (perhaps in your lunch break, and I presume that you don't have a piano in you office!). You can download the program using this link : http://pianoeletronico.tripod.com/files/Setup_Piano_Eletronico.zip The program is absolutelly free, and it never expires. I created a Home-Page with all the information about the program, but unfortunelly the site is in Portuguese only by now. The link is http://pianoeletronico.tripod.com . If you have experience with Visual Basic, you can download an Open-Source (but simpler) version of the program at http://pianoeletronico.tripod.com/minipiano.html You can see an English version of the site (performed by Google translation engine) here : http://translate.google.com/translate?u=http%3A%2F%2Fpianoeletronico.t ripod.com%2Flangpair=pt%7Cenhl=pt-BRie=UTF-8ie=UTF-8oe=UT F-8prev=%2Flanguage_tools However, the translated version has some flaws, so I decided to perform my own translation of the most important information about the program. Here it comes : Electronic Piano 2.0 is a Freeware program (gratuitous) with the objective to allow the user to play musical notes and chords through the computer keyboard. Even making use of the MIDI resources of the sound card (like the avaibility of 128 musical instruments), the program doesn't require knowledge or configuration of Drivers or any device connected to the system. Basically, Electronic Piano 2.0 is a program indicated for people who simply wants to play music in the computer at any time, without have to purchase and install a professional music edition software (usually expensive). Characteristics of the Program : - 128 musical instruments available - 47 different sounds of drums and percussion - Poliphony (possibility to play more than one note at the same time) - Control of Main Volume and Pan - Combine up to 3 different musical instruments (any one of the 128) - Graphical panel with the keys - Note lenght is determined by the amount of time that the key is pressed - Execution of Major, Minor and 7 Chords by pressing only one key - 7 octaves can be selected Information about the programmer : Mauricio Antunes Oliveira is a Programmer/Analyst and a Microsoft Certified Professional (MCP) in Visual Basic since 1999.

Subject: Re: Looking for new musical keyboard Hello, I would highly recommend the Yamaha DGX500 or the new DGX505. First of all, it is a full 88 note keyboard. Secondly it has MIDI capability. The controls are layed out in an extremely logical and easy to memorize order. It has 135 different rhythm patterns and 619 different voices. The Yamaha grand piano is very good. The strings and guitars aare good also as well as the flutes. It has auto accompaniments, a disk drive and 100 prerecorded songs. It is very blind friendly and you can order it through Sam Ash music for a little over $500. The new DGX505 has some additional features one of which is a USB connection so you can connect directly to the computer and download or upload MIDI files. I don't know about the price, however, but I wouldn't think it would be too much more than the 500. If you get the 500, I'd be happy to send you the control layout that I have written up. If I can help further, I'd be happy to do so.

I am in the market for a new musical keyboard with of course midi capabilities to interface with my computer, but I would also like it to have automatic accompaniment features. Something with lots of styles and good sounding instruments. Above all, something as easy as possible to use as the old grey matter doesn't work as well as it used to so the fewer key presses and menus I have to remember, the better. I am looking for something fairly sophisticated with lots of sampled sounds, so I am willing to spend up to $1000. If anyone can recommend something they have had experience with that fits the bill, I'd be most grateful. Also, if someone out there has the subscribe info for the midi-mag list, I have questions that would probably be more appropriate for that group. So far I have looked at a Yamaha PSR450 and a Korg PA50. The PSR450 did not have as many dedicated buttons as I would like, so practically everything like instruments and styles had to be entered via a numeric keypad. The Korg PA50 I kind of like so far, but it is very difficult to know whether or not it is difficult to use in a showroom. Any advice appreciated. I would also like to eventually interface the keyboard with my laptop.

[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Monday, October 11, 2004 7:46 AM Subject: Re: Turtlebeach cards. Hi, Turtle beach is a good sound card, quieter than the various sb cards. I owned and used one for years and the only reason I switched to an audigy card was for the easy access to the jacks in the separate module which sits atop my tower. I do lots of multi track recording and got tired of crawling around under the desk to plug line in and microphone cords. Also, the external module has volume control knobs, yes, I said knobs. Makes life easier. But for normal work, the turtle beach is a fine card. Later Rusty At 07:12 PM 10/10/2004, mimi spake thusly:- Oh, now, when I first got my computer, I had a strange soundcard in it. It was an offbrand of some kind and I switched to the Soundblaster Live in May, 2003. (I think that's when I did that.) I never knew whether the first soundcard had a line-in or not. I gave it away to someone else who sold it later. Is the Turtlebeach a high-end card that cost a lot more? I'm happy with Soundblaster. Don't think I'll tinker too much with this old computer nowadays as I am saving for a brand new system. I'm thinking of buying my next one from Radio Shack--unless I'm wrong, and someone else can make some suggestions, but I'm on a tight budget and I don't want to go into the red all over again. I like getting my system from a place whose sales staff will take the time to make sure I would be able to work it when I get home. Circuit City and Frye's are not hot places for me to shop at, as I find people there less helpful. I've been dealing with Radio Shack for years off and on, and at this time, thought I would ask some questions first.

The players are going relatively cheaply, and they're quite durable as these things go. Keep in mind, though, that a machine that has been banged up will not necessarily last much longer in your hands if it's already been used for a while. The main problem with Archos units is not durability so much as quality control from the factory. Were I you, I'd ask the age of the unit and make sure buyer protection is offered on the unit. Units that are sold as is should probably be avoided. BTW, when you get the unit, run a scandisk and see if there are any bad sectors on the drive. I've seen units which seemed to work but with their drives so riddled with bad sectors that if you try to put more than a few hundred meg on them, they won't read. Note also that you can replace the drive, but this, of course, requires buying a new laptop drive.

Then install it as you would any other version of RockBox. Make a .RockBox directory on your Archos, expand the zip file into that .RockBox directory, and copy the archos.mod file (player), or ajbrec.ajz (recorders), to the root of your archos. Now download the english.voice file from http://joerg.hohensohn.bei.t-online.de/archos/speech/voicefont/english .voice Make a langs directory inside the .rockbox directory on your archos and put the english.voice file into that. That is, the path to the english.voice file should be j:/.rockbox/langs/english.voice Assuming your archos is assigned drive letter J. Now disconnect your archos as usual, turn it on, and hit menu. You should have talking menus. Stay tuned to the rockbox list, subscription information for which is on the Rockbox site, for future improvements.

[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Monday, May 24, 2004 5:08 PM Subject: sound editors Hi Ron, The best thing to do by far is to download all of them, (they probably all have demo versions available), and play with each for a bit. If you do that, you can evaluate how easily you can do the things you want to do with each package. We can tell you in basic terms that a programme will do X or Y, but different packages do these things differently, and doubtless you'll find that you like the way one package does something more than another. I don't know about a sound forge demo, but certainly the goldwave demo is fully functioning, and if you do decide to go on and buy it, you don't have to reinstall it. I believe that there's a cool edit demo available too, though there is a pro and a standard version, so you might want to take a look on the relevant web-site and find out what the differences are. Make a list of what you definitely want to do, and what you might want to do in the future, and go from there. I'll happily help you as much as I can, however I'm still learning, and therefore am possibly not the best person to help. HTH, Rob --- Outgoing mail is certified Virus Free.

McFarlane [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: PC audio discussion list. [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Saturday, May 15, 2004 9:36 AM Subject: Re: Diamond Cut 5 (DC5) Hi Rocker I'm afraid I'm not aware of any scripts for JFW and DC5. To be honest I've not used half the features as I really only am interested in my business with audio restoration and once I prepare a file eg the portion I want to process - I do this in Cool Edit Pro (Audition) I then load it into DC5 and apply any of the presets of which there are hundreds. The dialog boxes for each of the functions i.e. Dynamic Processing, Continuous Noise filter, Band Passes, etc., these boxes are perfectly able to be tabbed around and selections chosen. There is a combo box in each dialog box which contains from about 20 to to about 100 options, in the case of noise reduction giving you many fingerprints of different devices, record players, tape machines, dictaphones, reel to reel recorders, all types of dolby settings, 45rpm, 33rpm and 78rpm, etc. which can be applied to the file or previewed first. In the EQ dialog boxes again there are similar presets giving so many options it's more than likely you would be able to find one. In general there's enough for anyone to use there - the difficulty is that if you want to tweak any of these you have more difficulty and would have to use the Jaws cursor to get around with varying degrees of success. As I said earlier however for most people there are enough presets to get by with. The other main problem with the program is that editing is not simple - I only use whole files I've prepared somewhere else eg. Cool Edit. The good news is that they have responded favourably to an email I sent (and others too of course) detailing all the things the program lacked including the need for more transport and selection shortcuts. At present it's accessible menu-wise and dialog box-wise to a good and usable degree with Jaws, but no doubt with continued pressure and perhaps more VIP's giving suggestions, this good program can only get better. I have no hesitation in recommending it at the moment if the features I've described are what you need, and you're not too bothered about tweaking at present. Also because I spend much time analysing a file for the best preset it can take some time to settle on one. With the new program however with its automatic functions not only to ascertain which filters are necessary for the file but also with the ability to adjust as the file proceeds, I can see this taking out much of the drudge work and possibly appealing to the novice who wants a professional finish easily achieved.

New Features in DC Six When we started to plan DC Six, we decided to focus on the big picture. Basically, we wanted to do three things all at once. We wanted to make the program faster, we wanted it to be easier and we wanted even more power. We think you'll see all three of these goals in the feature set. - DC Six is MUCH faster when processing. We now make even better use of the math functions buried deep in your cpu and the result is a speed improvement on many filters from 10 to 80%. DC Five was fast, but DC Six will go MUCH faster when you press that Run Filter button. You will see this speed improvement on both AMD and Intel processors. - DC Six has a totally new type of filter that we've never offered before. Our new EZ Clean will make it possible to fully dial in the filter to get out clicks, pops, crackle, hum, rumble, surface noise and hiss with less than 5 seconds of prep work. There are no noise samples to be taken - the program finds the noise and removes it automatically. It even adjusts to a changing noise environment automatically. It shows you what it is doing automatically. You'll be automatically amazed by this super easy to use filter. It's just great for any type of record or music recording on tape. - DC Six has another new feature that many of you have been asking for: A video mode. Now you can open AVI and mpeg video files in DC Six and watch the video and hear the audio. You can extract the audio portion of the video file and use the Classic Mode or Fast Edit mode tools on this audio. - DC Six now has support for DirectX plug-ins. If you have other audio processing plugs you can now apply them in DC Six just like our native tools. You can even put them in the Multifilter! - DC Six has a new 20 Band Graphic EQ. This new EQ uses traditional sliders to make it incredibly easy to apply more complex EQ curves. - DC Six now offers the ability to rip audio CDs! This is a much asked for feature. It will even look up your audio CDs and display the name of each track. A single click will get the audio off the CD and onto your hard drive. - DC Six now offers one button delete of .pkf and temp files. If you've found hundreds of these sitting on your hard drive, now you can get rid of them with one click. - DC Six has a new Fat Bottom function in the VVA. This is a bass harmonic synthesizer which can really punch up your bass-challenged recordings. - DC Six now has a new batch RMS gain normalize function. This adds another capability to automatically level volumes among different songs in a compilation. - DC Six now saves in many new compressed audio formats. If you install a new audio Codec on your computer, DC Six will automatically notice and allow you to save in that format. - DC Six adds an entirely new mode to the Continuous Noise Filter called Auto CNF. This is a new type to adaptive tool which does not require a noise sample and is a more advanced version used in the EZ Clean filter. - DC Six will now use files greater than 2GB is size. This has always been a limitation of the .wav file format and not the audio program. We decided to fix it anyway. You can now record your 10 hours of radio without stopping. - DC Six now has cancel buttons and progress indicators from most all functions. - DC Six now has

One box is a selection of preset E Q settings like concert room, heavy bass, etc. The other one determines the setting for the speaker configuration example: 4 plus 1 6 speaker etc. Find those list boxes with the jfw cursor then hit the left mouse button then root pc to jaws then select the pc cursor and you should be able to scroll through them. Be careful though because some of the choices will turn off the sound completely then you will need sighted help to reset them. Sorry you are having trouble with the card. I have use one for years now and it has performed flawlessly. hth...rocker - Original Message - From: kevin and emma [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: PC audio discussion list.

Re: Sound Forge
If you upgrade to 7.0 you will have to go to Sony to get it as they bought the rights from Sonic Foundry rocker - Original Message - From: Steve Matzura [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Sunday, April 25, 2004 2:40 PM Subject: Sound Forge Where to find it these days? I need to re-install my Version 6 and need to re-obtain my serial number. www.sonicfoundry.com is no longer anything about Sound Forge, and www.soundforge.com takes me to a Sony web site that wants my money for all kind of digital visual editing stuff I want no part of. If I have to, I'll even upgrade to 7.0, whatever it takes. ___ 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: Anyone have the IRiver SlimX 550 player?
Hello, I could not find the web address fore Computer Geeks. Even with a Googol search? do you have the URl?

Hi there, Check out the Computer Geeks mail order house if you'd like to buy close-out Rio Volt 90 or Rio Volt 250 for $39 and $79 respectively. Good deals for those who'd like to keep on using these great players after an original one has worn out.

I don't like the circfle joypad that the player has, so I've always used the remote. I suppose I could put dots or labels on the joypad to mark where to press, but only if I have to. I might get this IRiver player, but wondered if I can expect the same features in this as I have from the RioVolt? Folr instance, will it play old time radio, which is at 22050 and 32 bits? Does it have the click click hold option to change to the next directory, and will it resume where you left off exactly? Is it easy enough to upgrade the firmware, such as just putting in the disc and letting it work? Also, will it charge the batteries automatically, instead of possibly needing to select from a menu?

Re: Strange microphone problem
If your just speaking into the mike then a uni directional mike is better because it just picks up what sounds that are in front of it and not to the sides. Therefore, it would likely reduce some of the strange noise that it is picking up from around the room. cheers! - Original Message - From: morey Worthington [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: PC audio discussion list. [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Friday, April 09, 2004 7:28 PM Subject: Re: Strange microphone problem As far as directional or not. I cannot answer that question. I would think it is the version that picks up from all directions. Is this bad? Could the version that picks up only in front of it be the better choice?
