[all-audio] mic hand grips?
hello all, does anyone know if there are any hand grips out there that just have a standard mic stand thread? I have looked at the rycote ones, but they always seem to be for specific mics, and not either the rode nt4, or blue yeti pro, which are the 2 mics I mainly use.

Re: [all-audio] using my iphone as a high quality recorder
I personally like the ultimate vr or ultimate voice recorder as it is otherwise known app. the quality is customisable, and recordings can be automatically sent to dropbox or something like that. as far as external mics go, there are a few to choose from. a lot of them however, don't have any cable, but just connect directly to the lightning port, which I think makes them very easy to get knocked and cause possible damage to the lightning port. the main ones are the zoom ones, which I believe there are at least 2, possibly 3 models of, and which are nice ones, sure make one, but I haven't tested this out yet, and rode also make one, but unless you are going to use it with it's own app only, I found the pick up on it rather quiet and disappointing. alternatively, another really good device, is the line6 sonic port vx. this is not only a stereo mic, but a good little audio interface as well. some of the features of it's app are not very accessible, but a good one that is, will let you hear the sound that you will get from it before using any other app to actually record. it also has a headphone socket for monitoring, which is great for any of the new iPhones which don't have there own. it also has a cable, rather than being directly fixed to your lightning port. finally, it has a mount for any standard mic stand. finally, if you have a larger budget, and a preferred professional mic that you prefer to use, you could get the apogee duet, which again, is an audio interface, with xlr input connections. hope some of this info helps.

I'm not really much into IOS products these days but I do plan to get one of the new iPad Pro machines towards the end of this year and when I do an external microphone will be on the table. I believe many of the standard USB microphones we know of such as the Blue Yetti can be used and I know of others that plug into a headphone jack if you own a microphone that has such a thing. So do yourself a favour in the meantime, do a Google search and see what you come up with, my bet is that you'll come up with enough devices to wet your appetite. -Original Message- From: all-audio@groups.io On Behalf Of André van Deventer Sent: Sunday, 5 August 2018 6:36 PM To: all-audio@groups.io Subject: [all-audio] using my iphone as a high quality recorder Hi all Something I have been wondering about for some time now.

[all-audio] decent optical switch?
hello all, does anyone know of a really decent 3 input or more optical/toslink switch? the only ones I can find seem to be those from Lindy or Cyp, which both seem to be the same, just with a different name on them. and whilst the specs on them look decent, the actual build quality is very lightweight and plasticky, which has caused me 2 issues, as follows: 1, because they are so light and have no real body to them, when using decent but heavy optical cables, the weight of the cables tends to pull the switch off of where ever it is placed. and 2, so far, I have had at least 3 of these in the past, (the 4way version), and with out acception, they have only lasted about 6 weeks max before they go wrong, at a guess because I would say that again, the weight of the decent cables is too much for the rubbish build of the sockets on the switch.

Re: [all-audio] New Soundplaster USB sound card
I wouldn't swear to it, but as HDMI is mainly a video type connection, I personally doubt that you will find an audio only box or card featuring it. certainly for good playing and recording quality, I would go for either the aphex in2, or the steinberg ur22. these also have actual hardware controls, which do make setting up levels for recording a heck of a lot easier, rather than having to find and change that in software. hope this helps. Simon - Original Message - From: "Andy via groups.io" To: Sent: Wednesday, April 21, 2021 8:02 AM Subject: [all-audio] New Soundplaster USB sound card Hi all. I've owned 2 Creative Labs, external sound cards in the past. I've used both Optic and mini jack connections. Now I wish to purchase a new external sound card, but I don't think my new Yamaha amp has Optic in fact I know it was very expensive but I don't know anything regarding it's available connectivity. I do know it takes HDMI, So that's my first question. Do any of the cards sold by Creative use HDMI? that would be the simplist option I suppose. I'm wanting a good card for audio recording and playback. I Cannot play games and I don't require very high teck models, with all the complicated fancy stuff. I don't necessarily want a cheep box because of it's simplicity but I want to record and play good quality. I'm thinking of using Goldwave or Total recorder to record everything from the card and indeed Total recorder is the easiest to use as I've not had very good luck with Goldwav in the past because of all the sound options you need to change in playback and record functions Total recorder, I think works right out of the box without a lot of messing around, but now I think of it I normally use Winamp for playback. Now, as you ccan see, I'm already confused. Better that one of my friends on the list say something like, Andy get the creative ??? that will do want you want and is only around £150. Hahaha.

I've owned 2 Creative Labs, external sound cards in the past. I've used both Optic and mini jack connections. Now I wish to purchase a new external sound card, but I don't think my new Yamaha amp has Optic in fact I know it was very expensive but I don't know anything regarding it's available connectivity. I do know it takes HDMI, So that's my first question. Do any of the cards sold by Creative use HDMI? that would be the simplist option I suppose. I'm wanting a good card for audio recording and playback. I Cannot play games and I don't require very high teck models, with all the complicated fancy stuff. I don't necessarily want a cheep box because of it's simplicity but I want to record and play good quality. I'm thinking of using Goldwave or Total recorder to record everything from the card and indeed Total recorder is the easiest to use as I've not had very good luck with Goldwav in the past because of all the sound options you need to change in playback and record functions Total recorder, I think works right out of the box without a lot of messing around, but now I think of it I normally use Winamp for playback. Now, as you ccan see, I'm already confused. Better that one of my friends on the list say something like, Andy get the creative ??? that will do want you want and is only around �150. Hahaha.

This thing is great in terms of strong signal, in fact it is too great in that I hear harmonics all over the fm dial. Of course, this is partly due to poor harmonic rejection on the part of the radios on which I listen. I can easily pick up its signal from a distance of approximately 350 feet. It uses a rubber duck and transmits from 75 to 108 megs. Don Roberts On 12/10/2021 6:59 PM, Steve Jacobson wrote: John, Just to be certain, I checked the frequency range on my C. Crane transmitter manually. It appears that it goes from 88.3 to 107.7. It is probably the same range that your old one uses. However, I did some digging, and the higher power FM transmitter I had for a while is made by Signstek. There are a couple on Amazon. However, the low power setting on one of them is a half a watt. The one I bought was supposed to have a low power of 100 MW, but I think it was probably a half a watt besides. I had trouble running it close to anything. It came with a rubber duck style antenna which seemed pretty well matched for it, but it is possible that the trouble I had may have been remedied by a different antenna as somebody suggested earlier. The Signstek transmitter I had did have an connector for the antenna, but I do not think it was a BNC connecter. The antenna had a ring around the connector that had to be screwed down onto the transmitter's connector. It was similar to a 75-ohm cable connector but it was bigger. It was smaller than a 50-ohm connector, though. The Signstek does go down to 76mhz. in fact, one can set the frequency range possibly even greater, although I would guess it becomes less efficient at the extremes. As I said, I was very happy with the performance of my Signstek but something happened to it after a year or so. Yet, I know of another person using that transmitter and his has lasted much longer and is still working. In my younger days, I enjoyed experimenting with FM transmitters to see what kind of range I could get out of them. I look back and am thankful I didn't get caught. Nowadays, too much output makes me a little nervous. Placing the Signstek on the floor of my basement with its rubber duck connector still covered my block pretty well. I sometimes like putting NLS books through my transmitter and I didn't like the idea of my neighbors listening in. Therefore, I am happy with my C. Crane transmitter with extra wire added to the antenna. Regarding the power adjustment on the C. Crane transmitter, I opened up the case to get to it. Opening the case is a little tricky because one has to lift up and move horizontally as well to be sure one does not lift up the cover with the knob of the volume control still extending through the slot in the case. It is possible that one can remove a label of some kind and avoid opening the case, but it isn't as obvious to me as it was on the older transmitters. As I said, both of mine already were set for maximum power. I hope all of this is of some help.

Re: [all-audio] FM Transmitters: Looking For One On The Order Of C-Crane But Has More Power
I think a lot of that is often down to what sort of antenna you use with them. personally, I would say if you are going to use 500mw or more power, to get longer range, get a transmitter that has a proper antenna connector, such as BNC or PL259, so that you can connect a quality antenna to it, and more to the point, so that you can place this antenna in a loft or somewhere well away from other electronic gear. if possible, make sure the antenna you get is properly tuned to the frequency you want to use your transmitter on, as this will also cut down on the chances of having SWR issues. hope this helps.

Unfortunately, the low power setting seemed very much higher than 100 MW. It was a good transmitter and very quiet, but it had enough output at the low power setting that the signal would get into devices close by making them misbehave. That transmitter had a capacitor or something that went out after a year or so that generated a lot of noise in the audio. Also, some of its settings are accessed through a sort of menu with which one has to be careful. There are a number of transmitters on Amazon, but some claim a power of .05W which would be pretty low.

Re: [all-audio] Accessible Home Theater Systems
I would also be interested in this, especially if there is anything really accessible with out having to go through the app thing, as if possible, I do like to take a break from the iPhone some times. Simon - Original Message - From: "Matthew Chao via groups.io" To: Sent: Thursday, December 14, 2023 9:30 PM Subject: [all-audio] Accessible Home Theater Systems Hi, Folks. I currently have a Pioneer VSX932 A/V home theater receiver. Works great, but requires sighted assistance in setting it up and keeping it properly configured. The system is a 7.1 surround sound system. Does anyone know what systems might be accessible to us, either via iPhone app or otherwise? Thanks in advance. I'm tired of paying Best Buy to reprogram my system.--Matthew Chao -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- Groups.io Links: You receive all messages sent to this group.
