Unlike my Dad's car, my Mom's car doesn't have a cd player, and when we go on road trips to Canada, we often use her car. So I was just wondering, once I have the songs I want downloaded to the computer, do I have to do anything special to the files in order to get them to play correctly in the car? Should I save all the files as one long .m3u file or can I just put the files on the drive as individual mp3s. The way the thumb drive in my Mom's car works, is simple. All you have to do is put the thumb drive in, and the music starts playing. Then, when you're finished listening, you simply pull the drive out and the radio starts playing again. Cool huh?

Re: AC line filter question
John, Here are a couple of thoughts on this, although Gary may have some better ideas. First, have you been able to establish whether you hear the high-pitched sound when recordings are being monitored? I have seen it happen where sounds like this are introduced particularly when playing back a recording made at a lower sampling rate. If you can hear the sound while monitoring the mixer through your computer, then check each of your inputs by turning all of the gains down to see if this problem is being introduced by a particular input. Extraneous noise can easily be introduced by a microphone input if nothing is plugged in but the gain is up for example. If you find that a particular input is causing the problem, then determine if it remains if you disconnect the cable to that input. Knowing which device is causing the problem might help us come up with ideas. Make sure your mixer isn't sitting on top of or just underneath another device such as a modem or router. If you find that you still hear the pitch even with all inputs durned down, the problem is harder to find. However, it is still worth unplugging all cables to the mixer except the USB cable that connects it to the computer to see if the sound disappears. If it does not, you should look at options that affect the USB interface to your computer. Even trying another USB input or another USB cable is worth while. If disconnecting all cables even with the gain turned down removes the problem, reconnect each cable until you figure out which cable starts the problem. If a digital device is connected to that cable, it is possible that the analog output of the digital device doesn't have remaining digital signals filtered out very well. Another possibility is that you have what is called a ground loop. Ground loops most often cause AC hum to be added, but they can cause digitial interference as well. They result when a device has two separate ground paths going to a computer. For example, if you had an audio player connected to computer speakers that are also connected to your computer, a ground path will exist from that device to your speakers and then to your computer. If that device is also connected to the mixer, a second ground path exists from the device, through the mixer, and then to your computer through the USB cable. This isn't an exact science, though, and it can depend some on how various devices are designed, and whether your mixer accepts digital inputs as well as analog inputs and on and on. But you have to narrow down the cause before you can attack it. Another thing to check is whether you have other devices that might emit interference that is getting into your system. For example, older computer monitors or televisions can emit interference. If such a device is too close to your equipment, this can get into your system and result in audible interference when it mixes with other digital signals. Good luck.

Sangean PRD5 AM/FM Radio
Hi! For those wanting a budget priced set for long distance listening then this will certainly do the job. These sets are selling for around $85.00 in the States, I imported 1 quite some time ago, I live in Australia and bought it from a U.S. eBay seller. The radio is incredibly easy to use and layout of controls is straight forward. The PRD5 is a digitally tuned set with 5 presets per band, to set a preset you tune to the station you wish to store and hold down the preset button you wish to use for 5 seconds, the radio then stutters which means the preset has been stored. There's no need for clock setting as the PRD5 will use the RDS information from a fM broadcast for clock setting. The PRD5 has an alarm function and its easy to set but you'll need to take note of the steps for doing this as outlined in the manual. The radio can be run on AC power with the supplied AC power adapter or with 6 C cell batteries. The radio is stereo and stereo sounds quite nice through the radios pair of 2.5 inch speakers, you can use the radio with another sound source thanks to its auxilary socket. One thing I really like about the radio is that the sound is not muted when you turn the tuning knob, wish other digitally controlled radios would do this. As far as sensitivity goes? Well this radio is up there with the CC Radio II and CC EP, not quite as sensitive as those 2 but very close and at half the price of the CC II. ** Dane Trethowan Skype: grtdane12 Phone US (213) 438-9741 Phone U.K. 01245 79 0598 Phone Australia (03) 9005 8589 Mobile: +61400494862 Fax +61397437954 To unsubscribe from this list, send a blank email to: pc-audio-unsubscr...@pc-audio.org
