[all-audio] XLR adaptability

[frank cuta]

Hosa makes a great  dual XLR to  eighth inch mini stereo plug cable  about
ten feet long which works great with a pair of AKG C1000 condensers and a
Plextalk 2.  I am sure it would work well with the Olympus as well if it has
an external mic input.

Only my 2 cents worth.
A good general purpose recorder it seems though for the money I think I'd
rather purchase an Olympus LS-P4 which seems to sell for around the same
amount of money.
For those who have not seen an Olympus LS-P4 the buttons are very well laid
out and tactile marks are used for quick identification of function keys.
I'm not worried that recorders at this price level don't have XLR
connectivity as we're not talking professional studio recorders here anyway
and the inclusion of XLR connectors usually make for a larger recorder
because of the size of the actual connectors themselves.

[all-audio] Professional mics

[frank cuta]

A better full range mic is my  pair of AT4041 but for on location recording
I will stick with my C1000 large diaphrams because they offer optional
battery portability.

Not to meantion 14 has smart mode. Which isn't perfect, but when it 
works vbro it's awesome. That's why I wish they had put XLRs on it. Then 
youwould be all set. But yeah the mikes on the 100 are better frequencie 
responce wize. But I don't bother with the 3 mikes on my 14 so much. I 
just use my real mike. The Audio Technica AT-8022. But dude if the LS 14 
had XLRs like the 100 does then you could use the 4021 mikes. Which hear 
full range. From 20 Hz to full 20 KHZ. The 8022 only goes up to 15. Or 
better yet you could use a pare of 4022 omni mikes in spaced omni 
configuration or the Rode NT-5 mikes that can be cardiode or omni.

To be honest I've not seen this documented well anywhere.
The manual may reference this in a diagram perhaps but no verbal description 
exists.
I stumbled across this whilst playing about with the recorder when trying to 
set the time.

Okay.
During clock set use the F3 key to toggle between 12 and 24 hour clock mode.
The recorder won’t announce which mode its in but you’ll know by using the 
up/down keys to move between the hours, if you’re in 24-hour mode you’ll hear 
values lead out larger than 12 obviously.

Re: [all-audio] Another Olympus recorder question:

[Dane Trethowan]

Only my 2 cents worth.
A good general purpose recorder it seems though for the money I think I’d 
rather purchase an Olympus LS-P4 which seems to sell for around the same amount 
of money.
For those who have not seen an Olympus LS-P4 the buttons are very well laid out 
and tactile marks are used for quick identification of function keys.
I’m not worried that recorders at this price level don’t have XLR connectivity 
as we’re not talking professional studio recorders here anyway and the 
inclusion of XLR connectors usually make for a larger recorder because of the 
size of the actual connectors themselves.

In these situations I always hope I’m wrong, so are you going to have the P1 
swapped for a P4 or think about something entirely different.

Re: [all-audio] Enjoy The Dove

[Dane Trethowan]

Smart mode isn’t everything.
The LS-P4 has a solution, you can normalise the recording.
If you’re not sure where to set the level for your recording then set the level 
to a fairly low value.
Start your recording and - if necessary - apply the normalise function to the 
recording when finished.
As you will hear with my capture of the Dove, the ‘Auto” mode does a pretty 
good job for most things.

Not to meantion 14 has smart mode. Which isn't perfect, but when it 
works vbro it's awesome. That's why I wish they had put XLRs on it. Then 
youwould be all set. But yeah the mikes on the 100 are better frequencie 
responce wize. But I don't bother with the 3 mikes on my 14 so much. I 
just use my real mike. The Audio Technica AT-8022. But dude if the LS 14 
had XLRs like the 100 does then you could use the 4021 mikes. Which hear 
full range. From 20 Hz to full 20 KHZ. The 8022 only goes up to 15. Or 
better yet you could use a pare of 4022 omni mikes in spaced omni 
configuration or the Rode NT-5 mikes that can be cardiode or omni.

There’s one problem with the reading of the time and date setting that
Olympus should address, in 12-hour mode no indication is given of AM or
PM time so to work around this you toggle the LS-P4 to 24 hour mode.

Well, this eltrinex don't have xlr and such for hamit, so I guess its

Of corse olympus continued the work after the dm4, they done the dm7 wich have 
improvements there. Example, on dm4 you had to switch a setting on wich allow 
file names to be spoken, but with dm7 there is no such thing, it just works. It 
read everything even the password for wifi.

Re: [all-audio] Another Olympus recorder question:

[Don Breda]

Yes your correct Dane and I am returning the ls-p1.


There doesn't seem to be voice guidance.


Really unfortunate because it would have met my needs if it did.


Oh well at least I can get my money back.


Off to check out the eltrinex.

As I understand it the LS-P1 is the model down from the LS-p2 and lacks some of 
the functionality of the P2 including Voice Guidance.
As per your question regarding TTS? I’ll need some help on this but to my 
knowledge the DM4 was one of the few Olympus recorders to have a fully fledged 
TTS built-in so that’s why that particular model was able to handle so much 
more in the form of Daisy books and so on.
It is a pity that Olympus never continued on with the good work of the DM4 to

I'm sure infact they all do tell you when you set the recording format 
or you can go back into the menus an see what you set it to.

There’s one problem with the reading of the time and date setting 
that Olympus should address, in 12-hour mode no indication is given 
of AM or PM time so to work around this you toggle the LS-P4 to 24 
hour mode.

Re: [all-audio] Enjoy The Dove

[Dane Trethowan]

I’ve never owned a LS-14 so can’t comment.
I tried to purchase a Ls-14 initially but that model has long since been 
discontinued so I was offered the LS-P4 as a substitute and I’m very glad I 
decided to order it.
Now as for a statement made earlier in this discussion by one of the other 
participants.
The LS-P1 and the LS-P4 are exactly the same recorder, the only difference is 
that the P1 doesn’t have Voice Guidance or Bluetooth.
As far as I’m aware the P2 has also been discontinued.

Intresting as mine never had any issues. But yes the p4 sounds nicer

Re: [all-audio] Another Olympus recorder question:

Yep thanks and I did have a DM7 for a little while, worst ever Olympus recorder 
I owned voice TTS or no Voice Tts,.
The recorder felt cheap and the day I got the recorder bits started breaking 
off.
In the end I was perfectly happy to throw the recorder away and go back to the 
DM4.
Now the Olympus LS-P4 is here there’s no going back foo a DM4 for me, just too 
many advantages to be had with the DM4.

 As I understand it the LS-P1 is the model down from the LS-p2 and lacks
 some of the functionality of the P2 including Voice Guidance.
 As per your question regarding TTS? I’ll need some help on this but to my
 knowledge the DM4 was one of the few Olympus recorders to have a fully
 fledged TTS built-in so that’s why that particular model was able to
 handle so much more in the form of Daisy books and so on.
 It is a pity that Olympus never continued on with the good work of the
 DM4 to finish the job but there we are.

Re: [all-audio] Another Olympus recorder question:

[Aidan]

Of corse olympus continued the work after the dm4, they done the dm7
wich have improvements there. Example, on dm4 you had to switch a
setting on wich allow file names to be spoken, but with dm7 there is
no such thing, it just works. It read everything even the password for
wifi.

 Hi listers,


 Eagerly awaiting the arrival tomorrow of my ls-p1 recorder and had one
 question.


 Does the ls-p series actually contain a text to speech synthesizer as I
 am told the olympus dm-4 does?


 I ask because I would like to give names to the folders  on the recorder
 and possibly create new ones and have their names spoken.


 Thanks in advance.


 Don
