Re: Wireless speakers
Hi there. Where did you find this program called remote speakers? Sounds interesting. Thanks. Don
Re: Wireless speakers
Well it may be a more expensive solution but I have never ever had a problem using airplay at all. I use an apple airport express as the airplay device and patch the audio out in to my sonos system for that are not supported by sonos, and it works great! I am merely using the airport as a wireless access point or bridge and I can stop start, pause etc. all day long. Don
Re: Wireless speakers
HI Chris. I love my sonos system and highly recommend it. Its expensive but worth it and I do feel it sounds quite a bit better then most of the bose stereo systems. Bose is only now just starting to come out with systems to try and compete with sonos but they are sorely lacking right now and only 8in their infancy. Sonos has years of experience and it shows in thheir systems and sound. Their tech support is excellent! Frankly I don't think you can go wrong. Don
Re: Accessible Impulse Response Converter
IF you use window-eyes use the 32 bit version of reaper and use the version 3.7 or something like that of reaper, not version 4 and you will be ok. Don To unsubscribe from this list, send a blank email to: pc-audio-unsubscr...@pc-audio.org

Audacity tutorials or podcasts from a blindness perspective:
Subject says it all. Are there any podcasts or tutorials on using the audacity audio editor with a screen reader? I would be very interested.

Noise reduction software recommendations please:
I have two up coming projects to work on. One involves removing tape hiss and the other involves removing noise from vinyl records. If I take gold wave and sound fordge out of the picture which I must do, what other stand alone programs can I use to accomplish these tasks. I will consider gold wave only if there are some good plugins to accomplish my tasks cause I don't like gold waves built in noise reduction. I also don't like how gold wave handles previewing and some of the buggs there in. Having said all that recommendations please or have I effectively nailed my coffin shut. Thanks.

Re: Noise reduction software recommendations please:
Hi Dane. I agree with you about Sony and accessibility. Besides that they haven't updated the separate noise reduction module in 10 years to my knowlege and although it is great there is always room for improvement. I sure do wish Izotope rx2 software was accessible because its the best for noise reduction of any type hands down. I have started to play with their VST plugins which are certainly more useable from an accessibility standpoint then the standalone software but even then none of the edit boxes are labeled or anything so I guess if you have all day to play around you might be able to figure out what they do but I just don't have that kind of time I shouldn't have to waste in the first place. Oh well. Thanks. Don On 4/11/2012 1:16 PM, Dane Trethowan wrote: Hi!

Re: Noise reduction software recommendations please:
Hi Tim. Well I just downloaded the 64 bit version of depoper and talk about a developer who is concerned about screen reader users this is him. Also it looks like depoper does a very good job of removing tape hiss without much tweaking either. It may be a big winner here and I will certainly pay the $18 for the program. I also like groove mechanic but it deeds to be more configurable in some cases to do the job and well he hasn't updated it in years unfortunately.

Re: Noise reduction software recommendations please:
Hi Chris. I quite agree with you on most points. The developer is awesome! when it comes to his concern for accessibility. I have used gold wave on and off for many many years and purchased a full license for it way back in the very early 90s. I don't regret that purchase. I have the latest version on my machine as I type this and frankly yes there are buggs. I don't know of many programs that don't have some so this is not a criticism at all. I don't happen to like the noise reduction capabilities in goldwave myself but that I gguess can be a matter of personal preference. I do wish that the preview options were bettter designed in gold wave and that switching presets while previewing would always take effect immediately, sometimes it works and sometimes it doesn't. I also wish the preview button was a toggle instead of having to go over to the stop button. I also wish it had a bypass checkbox and also a way to listen to the output of only the removed noise as other programs do. Having said all that, for the money you just can't beat it. To say its a bargain is tipucal british understatement grin! Don On 4/11/2012 2:18 PM, chris hallsworth wrote: You must have been using an old version of GoldWave to not like it. I haven't seen any bugs etc with the latest version and the author gives a darn about accessibility, and that's not from reading either. I trialled GoldWave for several years, and finally bit the bullet by first purchasing a one year license, then the lifetime one. I don't regret it one bit. Same with Total Recorder. The author gives a darn about accessibility, trialled it for several years, bought the lifetime license some two years ago and don't regret that either.

Re: Noise reduction software recommendations please:
Thanks Steve. I appreciate your comments. Yes there was someone writing scripts for Adobe Audition for window eyes but I guess that project may have died on the vine maybe due to changes in the audition software that just couldn't be worked around. I don't know. I do have sound forge 8 and the noise reduction module but have heard that version 8 is not compatible with 64 bit windows 7 so haven't tried installing any of it. Don On 4/11/2012 2:00 PM, Steve Jacobson wrote: Don, I believe that the noise reduction plug-in that comes with Sound Forge is available as a separate purchase. You'd have to be sure that it would work with whatever sound editor you are going to use, though, and it is expensive, some might say over-priced. I have found that the four noise reduction modes that one can select are a plus because they each have somewhat different artifacts that can be less intrusive depending upon the program material. This noise reduction plug-in is not part of Sound Forge Studio. If you haven't yet, you might try a demo of Adobe Audition. However, for it to work well, it needs some support by your screen reader as some information has to be retrieved by means other than an off-screen model. I had pretty good luck with its noise reduction in the past, but I don't know how accessible all of the plug-in parameters are in Adobe Audition any more. I would definitely take some time with the demo before putting out the cash.

Re: Suggestions on a player please:
Hi Steve. Yes your right of course and I wish there was a small utility to just convert the bm file to a real playlist. While the solution Chris suggests isn't a bad one it doesn't eliminate the work of combining each separate lplaylist file created with Chris's aproach in to a real playlist. Yes I could keep them all in a folder and use file manager to click on each different playlist file but I want a solution that just creates a real playlist that gets appended to by the mere press of a key combination such as when adding a bookmark. Well I have beaten this thread to death at this point and may just write the winamp authors with the suggestion. Not a big deal its not the end of the world.

The two file formats are not identical, although the bookmark file does contain a URL that Winamp can use as a playlist entry. The other line, the second line of the pair that make up a bookmark entry, is garbage to Winamp when parsing playlists. If I knew just a little more about where to find the URL or track filename, for that matter, of the currently playing element, a JAWS script could be written to add it to a playlist file of choice, I'm reasonably sure.

Voice morphing software wanted:
Someone on the list gave me the idea to ask here. I have been wanting to purchase for years a program originally made by Voxware who's name I don't exactly know. It was the absolute best voice morphing software I have ever seen. It was made in the early 1990s and probably cost around $200 or more. You could record a persons voice saying something and then record your own voice and use the other persons voice sample to say what you said. It was foll quality audio and you would have absolutely no way to know that the other person didn't record it in the first place. It wasn't the garbage voice morphing stuff that is out there today for cellphones etc. it was as high fidelity as your recording and playback equipment would allow. Does anyone remember the name of the program and better yet have it and want to sell it cause I would deffinately buy it. I have contacted voxware and the company is so revamped that no body there even knew they made a product like that at one time. Its a real shame it disappeared.
