Re: n-Track Studio 6.0.1 Released

2008-10-28 Thread Brett Boyer
I just want to throw in that I love this program or did way back when. It 
has keyboard shortcuts for each track so you can pan, volume, effect, or 
whatever on each individual track all at the same time.

thanks

This is interesting as I've often wanted to use multi-track laydown to get 
a more layered effect, albeit for predominantly documentary-type work.


My question:  Is it rather tedious to work with multiple track mix-down 
without the benefit of something like a control surface?  I mean, how do 
you actually do the mixdown to a stereo master?

Hello, I haven't used the latest version either, being happy with my
registered version from several years ago. I've just never needed 
anything
else. Unless he has added the ability in there somewhere to perform mute 
and
trimming operations in there, I just record what I need and mute breaths 
or

other extraneous noises with Sound Forge, mix the track down, and then go
back into Sound Forge to trim out the stuff before the song starts. I did 
a

review on Main Menu when I first got the program, and so if you haven't
heard that, you could get a feel for the program for anyone who hasn't 
tried
this application. The developer is from Italy, and though English is not 
his

first language, he converses well, and is very receptive to suggestions
about accessibility from visually impaired users. I believe there may 
still

be a link from his page to the review on Main Menu.
Thanks a lot.

RE: Using a usb headset with mic

2008-10-28 Thread Tim Martin
Hi again John,

What exactly are you trying to accomplish?  Also, what program are you
using?

It may not be possible to have output on both head phones and external
speakers.  If you can stand just using the mic for input, you should be able
to check the options in what ever program you are using and get the output
selected to your soundcard.

Then try and find something like devices.  Most programs have the ability to
select different input and output options.

I hope this helps.  Let me know if you have further questions.

Regards,
Tim Martin

Hey Tim,

Well the headset / microphone has a USB connection.  That's why I'm 
wondering why I cant have the use of both computer speakers and the 
USB headsets at the same time.

Thanks,

John

Hi John,

If your head phones are plugged in to the head phone jac on your computer,
there really isn't a way to have them both sounding at the same time.  Most
computers are set up so that when you plug phones in, the speakers shut
off.
If one had a USB soundcard, this might be possible.

Sorry, and I hope this helped.

Hi again Borris and all,

Well I did get my headset and mic set up for my online classes and
also for Skype.  But now my computer speakers are shut off.  Isw

 No rebooting necessary, sort of takes half the fun out of hot-swappable

 Just make sure that your prefered devices are setup for your USB headset
 in control panel/sounds and audio devices as mentioned earlier. Many USB
 audio devices set themselves up as your prefered playback/recording
 preference when they are first installed. You may or may not have to
 restart your screen reader for speech to be redirected through the new
 sound device, depending on several factors. In the case of Window-Eyes,
 you can easily change the output device of it's built-in DEC-Talk
 access32 speech without issue. Even NVDA has provisions for easily
 swapping output ports through ESpeak or sapi5. Jaws, in typical fassion,
 requires more work to keep it's output locked to a specific device,
 which is further complicated by the fact that it tends to use the
 default preference for local-service when started as a system service,
 rather than the logged-in user's preference. Depending on the system
 configuration, they are not necessarily the same.
 
 BTW, for anyone looking at USB headsets, I highly recommend the Cad U2
 USB mic/headset combo ($39). Beats anything I've ever seen from
 Logitech, Labtec, Plantronics and the like, in terms of both mic and
 headphone audio quality.

 Best way I can think of is buy one of those cables that have two RCA

 on one end and 1 at the other. Plug the end with 1 jack into a laptop,
 with
 a thumb drive in it, and plug the other two into a stario or tv equipt

 2 stario jacks.

Please be so kind as to forward this onto anyone and everyone who can

Thank you!

Sorry for the cross posting folks, but I gotta get this off of my chest:

Let's see.  What time is it?

This is the year 2009, right?  Technologically speaking, it seems
that mankind has come a long way.  We regularly fly people around in
outer space, or explore the depths of the ocean, or the depths of our
DNA, or the depths of quantum physics.  We are daily dazzled with
digital sound and pictures.  We regularly communicate on several
high-tech devices, sometimes all at the same time.  And of course, we
can go on and on with our good and wonderful accomplishments; many of
which were had without sight.  Yet, and it must be simply because you
are a visually blinded individual, it is important to notify everyone
around you with the loud sound of a bong or ding or some stupid
rooster crow that you wish to know what time it is.  Furthermore,
again, because you don't have the use of eye sight, it must be
important for you and everyone else around you, to hear the words,
the time is now, or, the time is...  It must be important to
incorporate these extraneous, unnecessary expletives in order to snap
us unfortunate blind people out of the foggy stupor we were in when
we reached for our timepiece!  Oy vey!  I'm going to develop a device
that must by law, be put into all visual clocks that produces a loud
bong or ding accompanied with verbiage that states: the time is
now; every single time a sighted person simply glances at a watch or
clock to see what time it is!  What the heck is wrong with this
world!  Where is all this ingenious brilliance we see displayed
everywhere else?  Why can't we have a watch that simply tells us what
time it is without all of that extra, extraneous stupidity
added?  Why if I happen to be near my computer, I could find out what
time it is in the middle of the Pacific Ocean; and that without one
stupid bong added.  I want blue tooth timepieces with a blue tooth
ear bud!  I want what everyone else on this planet wants: -
Privacy, independence, expediency, and dignity coupled with a
deserved level of intelligent consideration!

I know, I know.  I shouldn't use so many explanation points in my
writings.  But, on the other hand, I get one or two of them every
time I wish to know what time it is.  Would anyone of these clock or
watch manufacturers like to ask a blind person what he or she would
like in a timepiece?  I want a meeting with everyone of them, and
right away too!  I just pressed a button that snapped me out of it to
let me know that time is running out on  such ignorance.  Please pass
this along to anybody who produces radio alarm clocks, clocks and
watches for the blind, and be sure to tell them that their time is
up!  And furthermore, make it more then affordable for us as well!

Thank you,

John Chilelli

RE: Voice tracking array microphone

2008-10-28 Thread André van Deventer
Hi Garry

Thanx!  Looking for some way to record conferences and meetings.  The
important things is that the recording must be clear enough that persons
with a hearing loss can understand it.  I am not so sure that the internal
microphone on the Plextalk ptr2 which I will be using will   really be able
to do the best job.  In the plextalk manual they actually tell you to
connect an external microphone if you want good recordings.

Andre,

I searched for the Voice Tracking Array Microphone with Google and found it
quite interesting to read about how it works.  It contains a number of
directional microphone elements and electronically selects whichever element
provides the best speech quality for individuals around a conference
table,while canceling out unwanted noise.  It seems to also be useful for
speech recognition applications when you don't want to be tied to a headset.

The $250 price tag is a little too steep just to play around with, but for
someone who has a particular need, I guess it could be justified.  I didn't
look for a better price or any reviews.

 Hi all

 Does anyone know  about something called a voice tracker array microphone.
 It seems to be a kind of microphone with different elements and an
 electronic system you can use to make high quality recordings of
 conferences.  I am in the market for some kind of system to make high
 quality recordings  with my newly-acquired Plextalk PTR2.  Because I have 
 a
 hearing loss and  need to write minutes from these recordings, I need the
 best sound quality I can get.

let's complain about the newer black forest cuckoo clocks 
with the babbling brook and the echoed cuckoos too. they 
sound cheap and arn't like the clocks we used to pull the 
chains to wind them up. chime clocks don't sound good any 
more either like the Seth Thomas's or Howard Millers.

Re: I gotta get this off of my chest

2008-10-28 Thread Brett Boyer
It's about time someone went on a rant about this. Especially since I've 
been saying it for years. Though there are a few tlking watches and clocks 
that don't do this the majority of these talking time pieces do have these 
anoying sounds. It's espcially annoying when you have several blind people 
in a meeting.
I wish these companies would realize we are not kindergardeners and treat us 
like adults.

just my two cents

Please be so kind as to forward this onto anyone and everyone who can
help me out with this matter; and please do it in a timely manner.

Thank you!

Sorry for the cross posting folks, but I gotta get this off of my chest:

Let's see.  What time is it?

This is the year 2009, right?  Technologically speaking, it seems
that mankind has come a long way.  We regularly fly people around in
outer space, or explore the depths of the ocean, or the depths of our
DNA, or the depths of quantum physics.  We are daily dazzled with
digital sound and pictures.  We regularly communicate on several
high-tech devices, sometimes all at the same time.  And of course, we
can go on and on with our good and wonderful accomplishments; many of
which were had without sight.  Yet, and it must be simply because you
are a visually blinded individual, it is important to notify everyone
around you with the loud sound of a bong or ding or some stupid
rooster crow that you wish to know what time it is.  Furthermore,
again, because you don't have the use of eye sight, it must be
important for you and everyone else around you, to hear the words,
the time is now, or, the time is...  It must be important to
incorporate these extraneous, unnecessary expletives in order to snap
us unfortunate blind people out of the foggy stupor we were in when
we reached for our timepiece!  Oy vey!  I'm going to develop a device
that must by law, be put into all visual clocks that produces a loud
bong or ding accompanied with verbiage that states: the time is
now; every single time a sighted person simply glances at a watch or
clock to see what time it is!  What the heck is wrong with this
world!  Where is all this ingenious brilliance we see displayed
everywhere else?  Why can't we have a watch that simply tells us what
time it is without all of that extra, extraneous stupidity
added?  Why if I happen to be near my computer, I could find out what
time it is in the middle of the Pacific Ocean; and that without one
stupid bong added.  I want blue tooth timepieces with a blue tooth
ear bud!  I want what everyone else on this planet wants: -
Privacy, independence, expediency, and dignity coupled with a
deserved level of intelligent consideration!

I know, I know.  I shouldn't use so many explanation points in my
writings.  But, on the other hand, I get one or two of them every
time I wish to know what time it is.  Would anyone of these clock or
watch manufacturers like to ask a blind person what he or she would
like in a timepiece?  I want a meeting with everyone of them, and
right away too!  I just pressed a button that snapped me out of it to
let me know that time is running out on  such ignorance.  Please pass
this along to anybody who produces radio alarm clocks, clocks and
watches for the blind, and be sure to tell them that their time is
up!  And furthermore, make it more then affordable for us as well!

Thank you,

John Chilelli
Erie, PA

  Hi Garry

  Thanx!  Looking for some way to record conferences and meetings.  The
  important things is that the recording must be clear enough that persons
  with a hearing loss can understand it.  I am not so sure that the internal
  microphone on the Plextalk ptr2 which I will be using will   really be able
  to do the best job.  In the plextalk manual they actually tell you to
  connect an external microphone if you want good recordings.

  Andre,

  I searched for the Voice Tracking Array Microphone with Google and found it
  quite interesting to read about how it works.  It contains a number of
  directional microphone elements and electronically selects whichever element
  provides the best speech quality for individuals around a conference
  table,while canceling out unwanted noise.  It seems to also be useful for
  speech recognition applications when you don't want to be tied to a headset.

  The $250 price tag is a little too steep just to play around with, but for
  someone who has a particular need, I guess it could be justified.  I didn't
  look for a better price or any reviews.

   Hi all
  
   Does anyone know  about something called a voice tracker array microphone.
   It seems to be a kind of microphone with different elements and an
   electronic system you can use to make high quality recordings of
   conferences.  I am in the market for some kind of system to make high
   quality recordings  with my newly-acquired Plextalk PTR2.  Because I have 
   a
   hearing loss and  need to write minutes from these recordings, I need the
   best sound quality I can get.
  
   Regards
  
   Andre
