Iriver HD recorders
Hi Folks, Nice to be back on the old list. Does anybody know if the iriver HD recorders/players are accessible please? My Understanding is that through the line-in, or the onboard mic the default file format is mp3. It would be nice to record straight to .wav, but mp3 will suffice given that the bit-rate can be set high enough to preserve as much of the original sound as possible. anyway, this might all be academic if the devices are not accessible by visually impaired folk. many thanks.

Re: problem with EZCD DA extractor 7
rob, I have a feeling that the manic fin who writes the program, and constantly updates it, has changed the list view, to a grid. Don't know if this is your problem, but it's the reason I haven't upgraded from version 6/x At 18:29 07/07/2004, you wrote: Hi all, got a problem with the latest version of the above, which I hope someone can help with. When I try to copy a compilation Cd, the programme lists all the tracks as separate directories, rather than all the tracks in one albums directory. each directory is call Artist name/album title. So you'd have say Robert Palmer addicted to love, survivor addicted to love, meatloaf addicted to love, where the album is called addicted to love and it's a compilation album, where 3 of the tracks on the album are by Survivor, Robert Palmer and Meatloaf. I want the directory to be called various Artists, the next level down to be the albums title, and the bottom level to e the track name with the artist. The problem is of course, where the album is by a particular artist, I.E. a Mike Oldfield album, Mike Oldfield needs to be the top directory name, with the album, say Tubular Bells, being listed as a sub-directory off that, along with the other Mike Oldfield albums. Hope that's reasonably clear, and if you can help, it would be very much appreciated. I don't appear to have had the problem with earlier versions of EZCD.

Re: Goldwave jumping (I think)

Re: a somewhat techie question about the LAME encoder and Total Recorder
Hi Larry, Did you get the full lame release? I mean did you get the razorlame which I would call a front end for the lame encoder? Here you can make a number of adjustments to the encoder. However, I am not sure if those adjustments will be passed to gold wave when you use the encoder. This is probably a dumb question, but if you record to .wav format, do you get the image shift? Not sure this waffle helps, but it might help a little. Just a lame excuse don't you know.

When playing back a program I recorded from XM Radio last night, I noticed a problem that occurs with some MP3s where instruments or vocals will shift from either the left or right channels almost to the middle channel, so to speak, when there is silence in the opposite channel from the solo instrument or vocal. This happens also in other combinations, but the point is, that it shouldn't. This effect is most noticeable when listening through headphones. I can't seem to find any way to work on more advanced LAME settings within Total Recorder like one can using CDEX.

However I suspect that faster multiple Hard disks, Low latency sound cards, as much RAM as you can install will far outway the 64 bit processor.

Re: Separate audio mixer advice?
Hi Jim, I guess you are going to plug the mixer in to the sound card, and audio devices in to the mixer. Good system. What you may like to look for, is a mixer which has channel switching off and on. So you can say, turn off the audio source with the push of a button, leaving the mic channel open. Then re-enstate the audio with the push of a button. This would save you re-setting the faders each time. Just a thought. # good luck, Joe At 23:50 09/07/2005, you wrote: Hi I want to buy an audio mixer to use in conjunction with my PC soundcard.

Re: sound card
Les, the M-audio cards are good, sound great, but if you are using a screen reader, the latter versions of their interfaces are a bit tricky to navigate. The M-audio doesn't utilize the windows mixer, so you need their control pannel to adjust the card controls. It can be done with window-eyes, but it takes a little perseverance, and constant use of the mouse pad. Good luck.

Re: Wind noise question
Dave, You could try removing certain frequencies, but the trouble is that the wind noise covers quite a wide frequency band range. Then of course, the sound of your voice will inevitably change as you reduce frequencies. It's a learning curve, and the olympus range are not tollerant of wind noise, even human breath on the nics. A wind shield could save this in future. Regards, JP At 20:19 05/11/2010, you wrote: Ok, I admit to being kind of disheartened at my apparent inability to record decently in hostile environments.

Now this tip isn't going to be for everyone as not everyone wears hearing instruments which can be used with induction loops but if you do? Well here's a handy way to use your instruments to great effect when sorting out one of the very few functions of the Zoom H1 which isn't accessible. I'm talking about the Bit and Sample rate of the file you're recording, this is changed in Standby mode by using the fast forward and rewind buttons, rewind takes you back through the cycle whilst fast forward takes you forward through the cycle of bit and sample rates. When recording using Wave Broadcast format you cycle through 44.1KHZ 16 Bit, 48KHZ 24 bit and so on right the way up to 96KHZ 24 and back to 44.1KHZ 16 bit so how to tell where you are. Well turn your instruments to pick up induction loops and put the recorder near them. Now start recording, you'll be able to hear the recorder as it writes to the SD card and the slower the rate of writing then the small the sample size, 44.1KHZ 16 bit has the Zoom H1 writing to the SD card about every half second whilst 96KHZ 24 bit has the H1 writing to the SD card every sixth of a second or so. Just thought others may find this helpful as I do, still haven't worked out a way to set the date and time for date/time stamping of recordings but I have to admit to not trying too hard, after all! one can change all that when the files are copied from the H1 to your computer.

It would probably work, but your player may have to do a tiny bit of buffering. There's a few things you can do to see if you have more hard drive space out there.

BTW, what OS is running on this machine? When you ask about additional memory, are you talking about RAM or hard drive space? How much RAM is there now? Prices on memory and hard drives only come down, so finding hardware for older systems can end up costing you enough to make it worth buying a real cheap low end system. Since it's a laptop, you'd have to replace the drive that's there, which would mean a lot of work reinstalling Windows onto the new hard drive, assuming you have a license and the install media for Windows. Depending on how much RAM you have and how much the laptop will support, you may be able to add more, but this probably won't buy you anything when it comes to storing media files on the hard drive. Something like Crucial.com at http://www.crucial.com/ can take you through the RAM upgrade process. You could use an external drive, but I think you'd find the speed frustrating. -- Christopher chalt...@gmail.com On 1/7/2011 3:35 PM, Colin Phelan wrote: Thanks all for your great suggestions.

Re: Amazing Slowdown
Yes chris, it's a good programme. If you select the correct slow down type, there are three, The granularity of the audio is minimal. I've used this software for about 2 years now. There are also competitors, check out seventh string software, or seventh string solutions can't remember which it is now, but there programme does the same tasks, but there is a pictorial display at the bottom of the screen giving a view of a musical stave with an approximation of the chords or notes being played. Obviously not an awful lot of use if speech output is the only interface, but if you have useful vission, or use screen mag,, it might be a contender. Roni software, in the form of amazing slowdowner does in my experience offer the best audio quality when the source is either slowed or speeded up. Another feature, is the ability to set regions, or pre-sets and assign the regions to keys on the number row. Pre-sets are set with control and a1 through 9, and retrieved by pressing the number key on its own. So you can jump between trickey parts of a piece of music that you are working on. These marked areas also hold the parameters that you have set in terms of the playback speed, pitch as well. There's a host of keyboard commands to control the program found under the options, preferences menu. You can perform the same audio functions with MIDI, I haven't done this being a guitarist not a keyboard player. Not even a guitar player really, more of a bass player. good luck.

Re: Totle Recorder verses GoldWave?
Carlos, Ok. Think about what you want to do. Obviously you want to record, using the PC. You'll want the most input resources available to you. Line-in, stereo mix, .wav and whatever else your sound card supports. Capturing the audio, in which ever form, can be done by most recording software, that is not the end of the matter. You might need or want, or have to edit some recordings. For most processes, goldwave has full keyboard support, and integrates with most major screen readers to a greater or lesser extent; I.E there may be scripts or setfiles to improve access, but these are not necessary when you understand the audio software you are running and have a good working knowledge of the screen reader in use. If itr's straight recording, with little edditing, then mp3 direct cut will facilitate the recording of audio with .mp3 files as the output file format. This is free, but cutting, copying, pasting, equalizing only the volume fading in/out is just about it with mp3 direct cut. but it's fairly straight forward, and will capture and save audio. Goldwave, Sound forge, record all and total recorder are but a few audio editing packages which give reasonable access . The goldwave dev. team are always responsive to the needs of screen reader/magnifier users, and will take on board, then modify or repair elements if they are broken, or just not accessible; That is worth paying fifty or sixty canadian dollars for in my opinion. Sony's sound forge, although you didn't mention this, is extremely powerful, and is the highest price tag. In earlier versions, care needed to be taken with the total recorder drivers, because they conflicted or isolated other required sound drivers. This was not difficult to fix, but caught a few of us on the hop when things that used to work no longer worked. This issue may have been resolved for further stable releases of the software, other list contributors can confirm or not this situation. If however you want to multi track record, then probably up for consideration must be the Reaper multi track recorder; This is where there are say a drum track, then a bass track, keyboard track, main vocal track and say 3 harmony vocals. So you can then play and edit each of these 7 audio source tracks till you have what you want, then mix them together, and save the project down to an audio file format. Reaper is not free, but I think the rae pluggin for better access is. This is also a considerable learning curve, so be prepared to listen to pod casts, and read the manual. Going back to goldwave, the manual is brilliant. In .html format, navigation and searching and locating results is a breeze when you understand your web browser and how to use the screen reader for navigating .html documents. Audacity is free I think, I don't have much experience of this though. sorry this is a little sketchey. Just some thoughts for you, and good luck.

RE: Further to my cd creator problem
Adrian, as tom ses, it sounds like the bit rate, and maybe even the type of encoding needs to be checked. I haven't used easy cd extractor since version 11. but in the output tab you determine what encoding you want, flak, mp3 ogg wma or whatever. Then you determine the bit rate along with lots of other peramaters. You may have an accessibility issue hear, as I say, i have no experience since the earlier version, but once set up, it should be a breeze to use. I hope you get an answer either from the forum or the good folks on this list who no much more than me. good luck, Joe To unsubscribe from this list, send a blank email to: pc-audio-unsubscr...@pc-audio.org

It would be nice, but not essential to hear the record, play, pause, stop fast forward et cetera spoken as they used to be, but it isn't impeeding me at all. I haven't undertaken any batch processing with this latest release, so we'll see how it goes when the time comes around.

reaper old version?
Hi list, By chance, does anybody have version 3.7 or there abouts of reaper? It certainly is not available from the web site as far as I can establish. My understanding is that this works considerably better with the REA screen reader plug in which rumour has it, is not being further developed to work with version 4.x. Rather the developer appears to have disappeared if that makes sense. Maybe another enthusiast will pick it up, got to be some dollars in it. Thanks for reading.

You may or may not know that Jonathan Mosen started this list many years ago. I'm not sure when, but it was around 1999. After a few years Jonathan no longer wanted to be moderator so he turned it over to Jeff Harris. I'm pretty sure that Jeff is the one who obtained the domain name and took care of the web hosting site, at ultrahost.us. After another few years Jeff no longer wanted the list so Jonathan again became the list owner and moderator. Again, my memory is a bit fuzzy on the time interval, but it was perhaps five or six years ago when Jonathan asked for volunteers to take ownership and moderating the list and, I'm not sure why, but he chose me from those who responded. I did not write the guidelines for what is appropriate to be posted to the list. It was either Jonathan or Jeff. It's a difficult decision to make as to what is appropriate for the list and what is not. When the guidelines were written, there weren't devices such as iPods, iPhones, Humanware or Victor Streams. Discussing cell phones has been off topic on this list for a long time. Jonathan even has, or had, a list for these discussions. Since the traffic on the list is still rather small, I think we'll just see how subjects and issues play out. Any comments regarding the content of the list will be appreciated.

streaming issues in windows7
Good evening folks running windows 7 32-bit The problem here is that when I want to play an audio stream from the net, any player chosen is stopped. Playing files located on the machine is fine, but either entering a stream address in to say winamp, winamp comes back with The address and the message access denied winamp stopped. Same with windows media player. Obviously it doesn't give the error winamp stopped. equally files will not play if they are called from the email client, or internet explorer, this used to work during better days when XP ruled.

Re: Still Looking For Help With Winamp
Hi Tom, I am not fully convercent with all the symptoms of your problem. However, the screen reader's volume should be independent of the winamp volume. I think the screen reader actually directly adjusts the audio device, where the winamp volume adjusts actual output from winamp. I could be wrong, I often am. you need to start from somewhere as they say, so remove winamp. Then go to the program files directory, and remove the winamp directory if it is still their. to be completely thorough, you could also remove the directory in documents and settings, users user applicationdata there's a winamp sub directory their which holds user settings, and I doubt if the audio side is controled from here anyway but be completely sure, remove this directory as well. re-install winamp, remembering to accepth the clasic theme on the visualisations side of things. If you haven't got an recent winamp let me know and I'll send you a link. If after re-install, then the problem shouldn't be winamp, but a shared component. So then you might want to re-install your sound card drivers, not always easy, but can be done. I suggested that you try another player to try and narrow down the sources of your problem. Not conclusive, but a pointer. Good luck.

RE: eac and window-eyes
Hi, If it is any consolation, performance with we is impacted with spybot search and destroy, easy cd extractor and depending on the task running, goldwave. This doesn't surprise me, at all. If we take a look at process manager, performance, we can see resources utilized by these programmes. Just some thoughts.

RE: easy CD extractor 16
Hello Ray, I've wrestled with this one. By using the jaws cursor, and setting the restriction to Frame, it's then possible to access the bit-rate, and output file type boxes, click in these boxes and you can change the values. It's a pig though. I had better luck with window eyes, but that's about as much help to you as flying to the moon in a bolsa wood glider. Good luck.

Thanks Bob, I'll take a look. Cheers, Joe At 23:06 14/10/2012, you wrote: Suggest you try the Any DVD/Clone DVD combination. Clone DVD is the copying software while Any DVD makes sure you can copy the DVD. The Clone DVD interface presents a series of pages where you tab from control to control. Some use of the review cursor (mouse cursor) is needed but it is usually obvious what has to be clicked on. Clone DVD now allows you to copy blue ray DVDs or step blue ray down to normal DVD. It also allows you to copy one or all the titles on a disk. There is a small charge for the software but it is well worth it.

Re: multi track audio recording in windows?
Hank, There is a keytstroke needed so that the data you want to play after recording is available. Dan't recall what it is just now, but it works fine. Maybe REA access is no un der developement, but as at the last release of reaper i believe that it worked pretty good. One of the facilities I like in reaper is that, I can record track 1, say first vocals, guitar, or bass, then monitor that track while recording next instrumental parts or further dodgy harmonies. If this can be done in audacity then that might suit me just as well. But for MIDI and audio then Sonar (costs a few dollars though) reaper may be best value. Somebody who has used audacity with extensive midi control could better advise you.

I can only tell you that I updated a dell vostro, and the conecant drivers did support stereo mix. Whether all implementations work the same who knows. JP At 00:09 27/11/2012, you wrote: Oh do they? Then I may have to take another look on my Dell lap top then. I couldn't find stereo mix. Interesting.

Re: gw connect question
Hello, many solutions for this. Probblem might be that, if you are not using an external synthesiser, and using a screen reader, that would be recorded as well as your two-way conversation. Just a thought. Joe At 10:37 08/01/2013, you wrote: hello friends, i wonder if there is any way i can record gw connect without using an external sound card, i would like to be able to do some interviews for radio using gw connect, perhaps there is some software out there that i could download, but if not, well, i'll have to get myself an external sound card, hope someone might be able to help, all the best for the coming year to all on the list, take care, travel safely, joe.

Re: re sound taxi
Hi brian, I have it here, but I haven't used it for a while. Running window-eyes 8.0, and I used to run sound taxi with 6.0 and later. Don't know what the links on the site do, sounds like documentation would be the .pdf, as for the mp3 I don't know about that. What file types do you want to convert? Joe At 17:14 01/02/2013, you wrote: Hi, is anyone using sound taxi, if so, can it be used by someone with no vision. also, i did a search on the internet, and the site i found, had several links for sound taxi. one said pdf and another mp3. does this mean, one has to get different versions depending what one wants to do with it. any help would be appreciated. brian.

Re: lowering bit rate in some mp3 files
Adrian, Lowering the bit-rate wil not improve the situation. There may be a number of reasons why you are hearing distortion, and changint the bit-rate will not fix this. When you say distortion, do you mean over mudulation, or are you hearing artifacts in the audio?

RE: lowering bit rate in some mp3 files
Hi, I've just seen your answer to ray Adrien. If you play these files on-line from Youtube, how is the sound thenm? Do you think that the distortion is being introduced when the files are converted? I haven't had any excperience with these youtube stream rippers or whatever they are. Thanks. Joe To unsubscribe from this list, send a blank email to: pc-audio-unsubscr...@pc-audio.org
RE: lowering bit rate in some mp3 files
Hello Adrien, I've heard it tonight. Dreadful audio though, but a good guitar solo, reckon he liked the original. Brian may would have been pleased to hear his work so expertly executed. Drums are high in the mix as well, huge conpression all over the place, I'd look for a better version if I liked the track. Reckon the quality is the answer to your distortion. particularly if other music is clean and good sounding. Thanks.

Re: Mac Versus Windows
Hello Vicki, As you say, Itunes on both systems shouldn't present a problem. Pages is a word processor for the mac, and will read, and save documents back in to word format. You would use numbers, as a spreadsheet package if you want, it's fairly accessible I believe, although completely different from excel for example. VLC media player works on both systems. We haven't really scratched the surface, but good luck in the new enterprise. regards, Joe To unsubscribe from this list, send a blank email to: pc-audio-unsubscr...@pc-audio.org
