Re: My first Minidisc upload
Mike, I'll have to double check my exact model. This little gem came with sonic stage version 2.2 for transferring files from the computer to the disk player and back again I just thought that what you had mentioned with the new version would do the same, only I was hoping it would be better or rather easier. I'll have to wait till Monday to read the manual of this little beauty and check into it. Thanks for the heads up.

Re: FM transmitter recommendation needed
Hello, I am kind of jumping in here but I thought I could help with this one. I use my C Crane FM transmitter to free myself from the computer. I listen to allot of books and how it works for me is; I open the book file and then let Window Eyes read to end. While the Transmitter is on I am free to roam about the house. I am not forced to sit in front of the computer nor do I have to subject the neighbors to what ever it is that I happen to choose. I used to have to put the computer speakers in the window to be able to listen while in the kitchen. That is nice when the weather permits and so long as that what ever I am reading is suitable for all ages to hear. smile.

Re: Understanding and comparing compression formats
Daniel, If you get any answers back with info that explains any of this MP/3W MA stuff, I would greatly appreciate if you would send a copy my way. I can tell that you already are light years a head of me when it comes to understanding this stuff. Smile Thanks Shannon - Original Message - From: Yardbird [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: PC-Audio Pc-audio@pc-audio.org Sent: Saturday, May 07, 2005 12:39 AM Subject: Understanding and comparing compression formats I've just been learning how to rip music from CDs to my hard drive using several different programs, and the one that interests me most at present is Windows Media Player because of the variety of formats it offers. As I explore and test these formats, one thing confuses me: You can rip Windows Media Audio files about six different ways, not counting the lossless option. Now, I'm aware that .mp3 ripping can be adjusted to use bit rates higher than the default 128 in order to restore a little of the information that a lower bit rate strips out. but understanding that is simple compared to the range of .wma options. Here's the main thing that puzzles me. In the WMP menu for setting your rip options, there are *two* sets of .wma options, each with its own range of sound quality level. First is the .wma choice that uses a slider to provide you with,as I recall, three levels of sound quality. I've ripped the same track with all three, and not only listened to them-- the differences are audible to me, although pretty subtle compared to the difference between any of them and a less compressed lossless or uncompress .wav version. Still, for saving space, I appreciate the compression, so I remain interested. Okay. So the smallest .wma sound quality level creates a really small file, much smaller than the same tune ripped to .mp3. And it doesn't sound any worse than the .mp3, was my impression. The next higher levels create larger files, with the highest quality level creating a file for any given track that's about the same size as a 192 bit rate .mp3. If I go this way, I'd suppose that's the method I'd use, so you get a little better sound quality than an .mp3 for the same file size. But then, right beneath this on that menu, there's a variable bit rate .wma option, again set by a slider, but this time starting at 0 per cent and going up. Zero per cent of what? And, more to the point, if this has to do with changing bit rates (doesn't the other method, I wonder? How else would you change quality except by varying the bit rate?) where are the indications for *what* bit rate this slider takes you through? So that's it. I'm really wondering about this stuff as I try to settle on a preferred rip method to set for my usual use. Does anyone understand whatever it is I'm not getting about these two adjustable .ma formats? Is there anywhere to read a simple primer about them? I don't feel the need to do research if someone can just explain what it is I'm not understanding. But just in case there's some online information about this that would clarify it all, that would be fine, too. Thanks, Daniel -- No virus found in this outgoing message. Checked by AVG Anti-Virus.

Re: FM transmitter recommendation needed
Yes, that is exactly how it works. The transmitter plugs in to any line out jack for head phones. What ever sound the sound card is producing will come out through the transmitter. You could in theory plug it into a walkman and do the same thing. I have a Y splitter plugged into my line out of the computer. Then the speakers are plugged into one side and the transmitter into the other side. This way sound comes out in both places i.e.. the room ware the computer is and, in the living room through the stereo. Does that help?

Re: Hooking Up An FM Transmitter
Hello Tom, It sounds like you and I have the same issue. I only have just the one line out or the speaker jack you call it. The solution for me is that I want the speakers to work too so I have to get the Y adaptor. It will look like a speaker plug on one end (the male plug) and it will have two female plugs on the other end. This will allow us to have the actual speaker plugged in to one of the female plugs and the trans miter into the other female plug. I haven't gotten my toy yet but I am waiting impatiently for it.

Hello, I know that this has also been asked and answered before, but where can you get this item? some one posted that they had attempted to buy a unit like this and received one that only transmitted 15 feet.

I am not sure what brand that the radio shack guy was talking about I am not sure that this guy was the one with any answers. He said that what he had would not work on a home computer anyway.

Re: Olympus dm1 and dm10
Kathy, Please foregive me but I only joined this list this morning, what are you talking about? What kind of speech are you trying to record? I have posted a question about recording my screen reading voice while it is reading a document, is that some thing that this olympus thing could do? Where can I read about this thing you are talking about? Sorry for the repeating of your issue. Thanks, Shannon Sent: Thursday, June 10, 2004 9:05 PM Subject: Olympus dm1 and dm10 Hi again! My thanks and appologies for not remembering who sent that very wise warning about the Olympus dm20; looks like I won't be buying that one! But I'm wondering if anyone knows if the dm10 is more similar to the dm1 than it is to the dm20? I'm also gathering that the dm1 is pretty blind user friendly? My biggest concern, besides being able to have access to the functions, is that the ability to record voice in stero, which I'm guessing all the dDM models do. Any help would be greatly appreciated. I'm not so attached to Olympus, really, but so far it's the recorder that's caught my attention.
