Re: singing dectalk and soundblaster
Hi Jim, Unfortunately, the TextAssist programme that uses Prody Parrot is inferior to the original and uses a different type of speech. For some reason, Creative Labs stopped using the Dectalk speech. I do have Prody around here somewhere. My grandchildren played with it for a time. Best.

" Sent: Friday, February 04, 2005 4:42 PM Subject: singing dectalk and soundblaster Hi, Somewhere in 1996 I used to have windows 95 and a soundblaster 16 soundcard, running a piece of software called text-assist. Text-assist had a text reader, sort of a talking notepad, and you could make it sing using pure text together with a few special symbols to indicate frequency and note durations. That text-assist soundblaster thing sounded almost exactly like the dectalk 4.3, which appears to be a completely different bit of software. On the web, there are numerous songs to download, made by dectalk enthousiasts, that make the dectalk sing wonderful songs. Not only one-liners, but complete songs with lyrics. And even better: not only monophone songs, but multiple voices sounding at once, creating very nice close harmony compositions. Even more: some guys have created dectalk vocals along with background music. What can be achieved with either text-assist or dectalk is impressing. Now I have two questions. First: if I happen to find the floppy containing text assist again, will that software then be able to run on windows xp with a totally different soundcard? I still have one from Creative, but this is the soundplaster extigy and not the sb16 anymore. Any experience with text-assist on a newer operating system than windows 95 for which it was originally made? Second: the dectalk 4.3 software doesn't seem to be available anymore. I now know that it is produced by "digital Equipment Corporation", which is, y the way, why the letters D E C are in the word dectalk, but what they currently sell is a much more human-like sounding software synthesizer that cannot sing, which is not what I'm hoping to find because I want to create my own synthetic dectalk songs. Does anyone know how I can obtain a copy of the dectalk software somewhere? Kind regards from Holland, Paul. - Original Message - From: "Ann" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "PC audio discussion list.

Firstly you go into preferences and select the "OUTPUT PLUG-INS" branch of the tree. Select the "WAVEOUT" plug-in and press the "CONFIG" button. The first thing you need to do is to make sure that Winamp is accessing your sound device directly rather than going through anything like the Microsoft Sound Mapper or the Total Recorder driver. Next you may like to ajust the various buffer track-bars you'll find in the "CONFIG" dialog, its a bit of a guessing game to find out which combination works best and every system behaves differently. Tweeking Winamp in this way is detailed fully in an issue of Silicon Chip which came out about 4 years ago, the publishers of Silicon Chip did about 4 or 5 articles dealing with Winamp and associated issues as Winamp was used as a core to the remote control jukebox project which readers could build.

Then the one's I've seen do not leave a gap between tracks, they do not need a buffer as they do not get moved from point A to point B as a rule.

Eliminating Echo from Real Player Playback
Hi, I generally prefer to use Winamp for listening to audio. However, the NPR web site and some others automatically open Real Player even when I have specified Winamp as the default player for Real files. Winamp plays audio fine. however, in my Real Player the audio always has a big echo. Is there some setting I can change in Real Player to get rid of this? Alternatively, is there some way to get NPR audio to play in Winamp? My computer is a Gateway laptop which has a sound chip, not a sound board and runs on Windows 98 SE so it's pretty old. I have a broadband cable connection and have Real Player configured for the correct connection. As I said, I listen to other Internet audio without any problems. Any assistance would be hugely appreciated.

Re: Recording Skype calls in Goldwave
Um, guys, you need 2 sound cards to record skype calls. Unless all you want to do is record yourself talking. Whatever goldwave is set to record, whether it be the mike input, or stereo mix, is what skype will be picking up from your side and sending to the other party. If you try to record the people you're talking to with stereo mix or what you hear, all they'll hear is your Jaws, and their own voices echoing back at them from your sound card. If you don't have 2 sound cards, you'll have to get another 1, or get yourself a splitter cable and a cassette deck. The only reason the answering machine works is that while it's playing it's message, it blocks any input from the caller's end from going back over the line while it's playing the message and recording the caller's message. The caller doesn't hear anything from your mike, though he does hear what's going on on your sound card. When you call somebody and the answering machine answers and you hear their Jaws, outlook express and msn sounds etcetera, that's why.

Re: Recording Skype calls in Goldwave
No matter what you want to record, in fact you can choose from a number of options. First, if you want to record audio coming from the internet, wether it be skype calls complete with ringing and hangup signals or just a radio shoutcast stream, then it is always possible to connect your cassette recorder to your soundcard and start recording. However, this method requires that you shut off any windows sounds and the speech coming from your access software. Everything coming from your soundcard goes on tape. Another option is to use the "what u hear" setting in your soundcard and record off it. To make this work, you can go into your windows sound setting (start -> programs -> accessories -> entertainment -> volume control) and tweak your sound card as follows. What is often unknown is, that the windows volume control applet really consists of two distinct parts: one fader set for playback and another, different fader set for recording. The playback panel shows up when you first open volume control. There you have the slider for the master volume all the way to the left, followed by all other sliders that are configured to show up from there, over to the right. In this playback panel, every slider has its own checkbox beneath it called "mute" that, when enabled, will shut off any sound coming from that audio source. A few things are noteworthy here. First: if you see a slider for your microphone in the playback panel, the checkbox below it labeled "mute" should be checked, on. If it is off, then you'll hear the sound that goes into your microphone directly come out of your speakers again. I don't know the English term for the effect this may cause, but it may result in very loud and uncomfortable noises. While all other sliders in the playback panel should be unmuted, your microphone should be muted in the playback panel. Second: if you wonder what source actually produces the speech coming from your Jaws' synthesizer, it is the "wave" slider. If you turn that down by tabbing to it and continuously pressing down arrow, it will gradually fade softer. The wave source also produces all sounds that come from windows, for example when it starts up, and it is also the source of winamp, realplayer, windows media player etc. Only audio cd's and midi files come out of a different source. The recording panel in windows volume control can be opened by entering the pulldown menu at the top by pressing and releasing alt. This will open the leftmost menu from the pulldown bar. Whereas most programs have a file menu at the very left of the pulldown menu bar, windows sound control calls this menu "options". Just arrow down until you reach "properties" and press enter to open the dialog. In this dialog, you can do two basic things. You can switch from playback panel to recording panel, and/or you can configure which faders (sliders) you want to have visible in each of the panels. This works as follows. When the dialog opens (after you press enter on properties on the "options" menu), you are in a listbox that lets you select for which of your soundcards you want to configure the playback and/or recording panels. Just arrow up and down to select your current device. If you have only a single soundcard installed, then this choice is already set correctly. press tab to move on to the next item in the window. This is a set of radio buttons, that can be selected using up and down arrow. This group of radio buttons allows you to select which panel to configure: playback or recording. After making your selection, tab on once more. Now you are in a special kind of list box. While arrowing up and down, you may notice that each individual item can be toggled on or off by pressing space bar. This listbox shows all possible sliders that can be shown or hidden for each panel. For playback, select all audio sources to be turned on as far as you are using them. I mean: turning on an audio source you are never using, only introduces hiss in your audio which is what you don't want. After selecting the faders you want to show up for the given panel, tab on and you'll land on the OK button. Now, the listbox I just mentioned contains the control that is mostly called "what you hear", or "stereo mix". This is a special kind of audio source, only useful in the recording panel slider set. To understand how to use it, think of this. Many audio sources can be played back simultaneously, but only one can normally be recorded from. Only if you use the "what you hear" audio source as your recording source, you'll be recording the combined audio signals that are played back at any time by your soundcard. The what you hear source is almost ideal for recording audio from the internet, but as mentioned above, it has the same final effect as recording on cassette tape, because everything coming from your soundcard is sent to your audio recording on disk. After pressing spacebar on the

RE: moving forward in real alternative
Hi. Real Alternative is a package that allows Real Content to play in other players. It is not a player in itself, though it does include the Windows Media Classic player. However I, and most other people, use Winamp. If you're using Windows Media Classic, I don't know how to jump. If you're using Winamp, hit ctrl+j to jump to a specific time in a file, then enter that as mm:ss. That is, 60 minutes would be 60:00 You will be taken to 60 minutes from the beginning of the file. If you're using Winamp with the Jaws scripts, you can do relative jumps. That is, you can jump five minutes forward in a file, or five minutes backward. To jump forward by 60 minutes, enter alt+shift+j, then type 60:00 to jump backwards by 60 minutes, enter alt+shift+j and type -60:00 HTH.

Re: Minidisk Vs. Mp3
Andy, I bought my MZ-b100 last year and I have never regretted it. the next generation of technology will be recording on solid state memory cards. the audio files created on these cards can be transferred directly to a computer and played, like other digital audio files. no more real time transfers. I was at an event recording and next to me was a guy from one of the local radio stations also recording. he said that his machine recorded on to gigabyte flash memory cards and provided about five hours of recording on each card. I learned later that the price for such a recorder is about three or so times the price of the MZ-b100. eventually, the price will come down on the solid state flash recorders, obviating the need for the minidisk recorders.
