Speech Compression Plug-in

2005-10-03 Thread Dana S. Leslie
A couple of weeks ago, on one of these lists, someone mention a speech compression plug-in for Winamp, which can be used to speed up the playback of, for example, a podcast, without raising the pitch. Can someone remind me of the name of that plug-in, and where to download it? Thank you.

Pacemaker Plugin for Winamp?

Is anyone successfully using this plug-in? I have gotten it to work; but I can't figure out how to adjust it. JAWS reports 0% no matter where the sliders are set. So, how can I tell where they are set, and, even if I find a comfortable listening rate and pitch, how can I be sure of getting back to

Dean, I installed version 1.3, and it's working much better for me. In general, am I right in thinking that one would want to decrease the pitch setting by the same amount one increases the speed? This seems to give me pretty good results. but, do you know of a better rule of thumb? Blessed

Randy, Bring up the preferences menu in Winamp. scroll down to DSP/Effects. Tab to the list box that lists the various plugins, and select pacemaker by pressing the letter p. Tab once, and you will be in a dialogue where you can adjust sliders to set tempo, pitch, and speed. I found that JAWS

Yes, and sort of. You can alter the tempo, pitch, and speed of anything played back in Winamp. You can do it while the recording is playing back. But, so far as I've found to date, you have to keep going back and forth between Winamp's main window and the DSP section of winamp's preferences. It

For me, the up and down arrows work to control the volume whether I'm in the equalizer or the main window. It's only the left and right arrows (for panning) that only work when I'm in the equalizer. - Original Message - From: Jerry Richer [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: PC audio discussion list.

Russell, That is incorrect. The latest version of Winamp has a section within the Library that allows you to access various AOL with Xm streams. I was vary excited, a month or so ago, to discover WQXR, from NYC, is available this way, and I listen to it frequently. I doubt the Winamp library

Susan, Well, I don't fully understand it, either. but, when Winamp 5.1 was released, a couple of months ago, there was a new subsection in the Online Streams section of the Library, where you could find AOL with XM streams. I found a stream in there for WQXR, the New York Times' classical music
