Re: Minidisc recorder Drawback
I've had mini disc recorders since 1996 and really love them. I have the sony 505, and even though it doesn't have a mike input, I use it to listen to music while I ring bells during xmas time for the Salvation Army. I do have a sony MZR90. An it's one of the older portable models and it does have a mike input. The only thing is when you get in to the menue, you need to keep track of the amount of times you move the wheel to keep track of which function you want to go too. I also have an MDSJE480 home minidis recorder, and I really love it. That one and the 505 portable will play the LP2 LP4 and the SP sampling rates. But the MZR90 will only play the SP sampling rates. The MDSJE 480 doesn't have a mike input. I do have a stereo tie clip mike I use for the MZR90. It's a cheap mike, but really it sounds quite nice. the only draw back with the MZR90 is that you can't move it around much while in the record mode, or it will mistrack. But over all I like the minidisk format quite well. Kevin On Tue, 24 May 2005 15:49:08 -0600 Bobcat [EMAIL PROTECTED] writes: Michael. The new Olympus interests me.

It had 1 to 4 short beeps for 4 folders. The other functions on the 1800 had useful audible tons as well. Only thing I could not work was the calendar function. I notice that a model reviewed on Main menu only used one tone so it was harder to keep track of folders. That was a step in the wrong direction from Olympus.

Re: nero or cd burning question
Marie, good advice on blank CD's. I have yet to find that I have a problem with CD's I've burned in my computer, but I'm sure that time will come. But I've had to throw away CD's that have errored in my home CD recorder. With kassettes, there was always, or most of the time if something went wrong, you could maybe fix the tape, by splicing it or what ever. But with a CD, when it errors, or you get a bad CD, the only thing you can do is to use it as a koster, or throw it away. When I get a CD that's bad, I hold it over the trash canand in to the trash can a bit, bend it in half till it brakes. But be careful of the sharp edges of the small pieces, when you do this. They tend to fly. That's why I hold the CD in to the trash can before braking it. Sure is a good way to take out your frustrations on a bad CD. Kevin On Sat, 27 Nov 2004 21:33:40 -0800 mimi [EMAIL PROTECTED] writes: Marty, I have had CD's not play properly and had to reburn the mp3 music on a ifferent brand disc which works better. The cheaper the disc, you lose data on the cheaper ones after some time. There is no setting I can find in Nero that will fix this. When I disc does not burn successfully, or completely, what happens is you have some dead tracks, and the dead disc is referred to in my circle as a coaster. You can either use it as a coaster or throw it away. Some brands are much better than others at holding our data. I'd stick with Imation from Office Max or Regata from Radio Shack. Something that is a more reliable brand and will work every time. The cheaper the disc, well, it's like buying the cheapest cassette, and you know what happens there: bad quality sound and tapes very uneven in recording. Also, I have Nero set to play a trumpet sound when a disc is burned successfuly; a dragon when it is not. When the dragon sounds, I just throw the disc out, because I know there is nothing I can do to fix it. You burn CDR's once. Rewriteable discs, you can burn for a limited amount of time. Some CDRW discs I bought, I found some bad ones in the pack, as well. There is no way for a blind person to tell when a bad one's coming up until it is burned. Yes, it's annoying! The other thing I had to do is slow my burner speed down. 52x is too fast for my processor. When I talked to someone at Radio Shack about this, that's when they told me this. I thought that could be the trouble, but had to have someone else confirm it. Radio Shack sells computers, too. I guess you did not know this. Also, if you are ever in the market for a new computer in the future, why not ring Excell here in Sacramento about it when you're ready? They sell computers to the Society for the Blind here, and won't treat you like a dummy. In fact, I am thinking of getting them to fix me up with my next system. You remember Excel, don't you? And, of course, that's where Curt got his computer. I'm sorry my answer baffles you in some way, but I have to tell you that not all CD's are created equal. I stay away from real cheap ones, even if the deal sounds good. I'd reather pay a little more for good blank discs I can rely on year after year. It's very crucial to me.

Re: Need reccomendations on boomboxes
Terry, Could it be that your NPR station is weaker than the Christian station next to it? Most Walkmans and boom boxes have very lose front ends. What I mean by that is, that they don't reject multipath interference that well. So stronger stations almost always blead over in to the weaker ones. For example, here In Colorado Springs, Colorado where I live, I work for an NPR station that for all intense and purposes has a weaker signal than stations around it. Our power output is only 2300 watts off the top of Cheyenne mountain. That's just west of Colorado Springs, and it's where all the FM TV and other UHF VHF communications transmitters are located. And of course a radioor tuner with a loosefront end will pick up all that interference coming off the mountain. I have a walkman, it's a Sony, one of their sportsman models. TheA.M. isn't too bad for a radio that small. But the FM has a local distance switch, and it's tuned with a nob. But in order to get KRCC in most sections of town, I have to use the local setting. If I use the distance setting on F.M. I can't even find the signal. So in order to get KRCC, I have to have a real good radio like the CC radio by C Crane or the GE super radio 3. My ICF 2010 by Sony will get it. And my tuner on my stereo will get it. So what I'd do is to test out the boom boxes before you buy one, and make sure it will receive the station you want to listen too. If I can help you any further, please let me know.

(speaking of the Panasonic RX-ED50 which I mentioned in my post), I can tell you that you won't! get this problem, that Sony Boom-Box you're referring to sounds a very cheap and nasty product to me if its doing that. The difference between digital tuning and analog? Well... digital tuning is far more accurate that is to say, if you wish to tune to a frequency of 1080KHZ, then that's exactly what the set or tuner is tuned to with no drift etc. Digital tuned radios have had a problem of not being very sensitive though this is changing now with better designs, better sheelding etc. An analog radio is tuned by a knob whereas digital tuned radios are tuned with buttons. To go back to the Panasonic set I have, to tune in a station, you use the up/down tuning buttons, these go up/down in 9KHZ steps (that's the standard frequency step for all Medium-Wave radio receivers outside the U.S.). When you hold down either up or down, the set goes into SEEK mode (that is, the set looks for a strong signal and locks onto it). Once you've tuned a signal, you can assign the frequency to a memory or preset, the Panasonic boom-box I have has 24 presets and they can be recalled by either turning a dial (which clicks) on the top of the unit or by typing in the preset number on the remote control keypad.

He has a car sterio that can play that type of cd. Some sterios play them, others do not. Many of the portable cd players play mp3 cd's as well as standard cd's. Rusty Hi, everybody. I like making compilation CD's of songs from various artists and average about 16 to 17 songs per Audio CD. I also prefer dot wav files, as they don't sound canned like MP3 files. Could I put a big pile of songs onto a DVD? Do I require any special hardware or software? Will the finished product play in a home stereo CD player?

I have a CD burner but not a DVD player or Burner on my computer. I was thinking since the capacity of the DVD disk is larger that it could be useful to back up some large folders on to them and remove them from the computer thus making more space.

I thought that DVD were digital video disks and CDs were for any kind of data whether music or any other kind of data. I'm sorry to be so stupid on the subject.

I'd like to put 4 gig or so worth of mp3's on a dvd disc for archival purposes. What is the best way to do this? Do I just treat it like a cd and just make a larger compilation layout? Or, do I have to burn it a special way? I've never attempted this. I have a sony burner that, reputedly, burns all formats. I've burned a couple of cd's on it, used it to rip a couple of cd's, and actually copied a cd to it from mycd drive. I have a sony dvd plus r. Any suggestions would be appreciated. Rusty Be happy.

Re: extracting the audio from a DVD
What do you want to save the audio from a DVD on? I have a DVD player, and I wanted to listen to the Concert for George, last Christmas while I was ringing bells for the Salvation Army. I recorded the entire audio track on a mini disk. I had to use the LP2 sampling rate. Cause the whole thing was 3 hours. I could only take it off the analogue output. I tried using the Toslink optical output, but didn't get any sound. So the analogue output was the only way to go. Then I took it with me on my portable mini disk recorder and listened to it while I rang bells. Hope this helps.

Re: question about recording books
And my A P H desk top machine, that I purchased a couple of years ago, doesn't have this cross talk problem. But I do have some small problem with cross talk on my Sony 2 track stereo recorder that's modified to play NLS tapes, that I purchased from I R T I last year. But it's really not legible. You have to put your ear to either speaker to here it, and that's when there's silent portions on the talkingbook tape. Kevin On Thu, 08 Jul 2004 10:48:07 -0700 Marty Rimpau [EMAIL PROTECTED] writes: Hi, Terri, wonder if the head alinement is different between your nls machine, and your standard tape player? head alinement is very critical, especially when you're dealing with the outer tracks, and a classic example of cross talk was the original 4 track pros that irti sold in 1996, don't know if they've resolved the cross talk issue or not, but the a p h machines don't have this, nor does my tascam porta studio 03, that I had re-biased for type 1 tape.

You know, with the library tape in one side, and a blank tape in the other. Well, I've recorded one tape so far, and I've noticed something that I really don't like, but I don't know if there's anything I can do about it. When I played the tape in my NLS machine, I had to turn the volume up half way, so that I could really hear it well. And I noticed that I could hear noise, I believe from the other track. It wasn't coming threw real loud, but it was noticeable. What do you all think? Is it something with my tape recorder, or is this sort of thing normal? I'm using TDK tapes, and I've always thought that was a good brand. Any thoughts on this will be much appreciated.

Re: Setting a turn-Table Pitch Control?
Yeah, just find a song that you're framiliar with on CD, then hopefully you have that same song on vinal. And then plug a pair of phones in to your CD player, and only use 1 ear. Then plug another pair of phones in to your amp, and use the one ear from the second pair of phones. Then try and start them both at the same time. Make sure they're as close together as you can get them. Then adjust your pitch control on your turntable, until it matches the pitch with your CD version. I've have done it and it can take some time, so please be patient. Hope this helps, Kevin On Sat, 15 May 2004 11:13:27 -0500 Dale E.

The turntable has a pitch control for fine-tuning the speed. I don't have perfect pitch, and I can't use the visual cues to set the speed properly.
