not that i can think of, but should you want to record from the pc other then 
your mike, you'll have to run what's called a line in cable in to a line in 
jack.
Hope this helps.

dude, I got an eight gig iphone and yes, before you start griping about it not 
being accessible it does have voiceover.
It's great and worht buying one.
the eight gig model ipods have been updated to 3 and they all now have

 Before you, as a blind audio enthusiast, purchase an iPod Touch, expecting to

 Not long ago, my wife bought me an iPod touch for my birthday. Understandably 
 unaware  that the 8 gig version of the Touch was never updated to Version 3, 
 she bought one. After all, on Apple's Canadian website, it was listed only as 
 current. Further, nothing on the box listed the item as version 2, a 
 version which many of us know to be unaccessible. 
 
 Since yesterday was Saturday, I spoke to Apple Support concerning my issue, 
 as Customer Service was closed. When I spoke to the agent who took my call, I 
 was told that information concerning the fact that the 8 gig touch had not 
 been updated to version three was all over the website. I would like to ask 
 him where such info is listed on the Canadian site, but instead I'll simply 
 take my case to Customer Service on Monday.
 
 My advice to those who are interested in purchasing the touch? If you need 
 accessibility, purchase only version 3 of the Touch which comes in the 32 and 
 64 gig models. Anything less will not talk to you. And, so far anyway, it has 
 been my experience that Apple sees such problems as Buyer Beware. Hopefully 
 I'll be pleasantly surprised to learn that my problem is limited to one 
 isolated agent. Meanwhile, when buying a touch, make sure to get the right 
 one.

 Depending on if Apple will be releasing an iPod Touch with a camera, then we 
 may do that.  The deal breaker may be how usable the GPS actually is in the

 Following some pointers from Dane, I found the site

 accessibility site devoted to the iPod Touch. On this page it says:
 
 The same VoiceOver screen reader made popular on the Mac and the iPhone is
 now a standard feature on iPod touch 32GB and 64GB (3rd generation). It's
 the
 world's first gesture-based screen reader, enabling you to enjoy the fun and
 simplicity of iPod touch even if you can't see the screen.
 
 Note that when I checked the specifications pages for the different models
 of the iPod touch, I didn't see that they specifically noted whether the
 model supported VoiceOver or not. The comparison table mentioned voiceOver
 for the Nano and the Shuffle, but not the iPod Touch.
 
 As others have mentioned, I doubt they'll support VoiceOver on your model
 but I would hope they would let you return or exchange it, especially since
 it was a gift.
 
 Your warning about doing your homework before you purchase something is duly
 noted. I've seen disappointed customers on both the Rockbox and Talks/Mobile
 Speak lists. Unfortunately, finding some of this accessibility information
 isn't easy.

 making the Iphone 3G or previous Ipod Nano models before the 4th generation
 Voiceover compatible and part of the reason for that is that these devices

 Hi everyone!
 
 Its said that everyone should Expect the unexpected and that's precisely 
 what happened to me today.
 
 A bit of background, I use a Windows PC and the best product around for 
 editing audio in a Windows Environment would have to be Goldwave, its a good 
 value for money editor and the author is going out of his way to make the 
 software totally accessible.  Anyway I was on the Goldwave site today to 
 report an issue I was having and to see whether the issue could be resolved 
 or whether a workaround existed when I came across an interesting question 
 in the FAQ section of the support site, Is their a version of Goldwave 
 for the Mac? I looked up the answer and the answer was At this time their 
 is not a version of Goldwave available for the Mac OS, after this the site 
 presented me with several links to audio editing alternatives which included 
 Sound Studio and one I'd never heard of called Peaks Pro at 
 http://www.bias-inc.com/products/
 
 I downloaded the software and though I've played with it in a very short 
 space of time I can't help being impressed with what I've seen so far, Peaks 
 is a true Audio editing and Mastering tool with many features that only top 
 end sound production suites offer.  As you'll see from the web site many 
 additional plug-ins and options are available to turn tPeaks into what would 
 seem to be an incredible home studio so if this software proves to be 
 accessible then we may be on a winner and I can only hope that the 
 developers will be interested in finding solutions to problems if indeed any 
 exist.
 
 So far I haven't had time to try and navigate round files but I can tell you 
 that toolbars seem perfectly accessible and the menu system is bursting at 
 the seams with a whole aray of features, commands, functions and options.
 
 Unfortunately the manual for the product is not provided on your local 
 machine, its in a PDF document online and it seems to be protected in some 
 way, you can't download the manual you can only view it in Preview.

if you want to make decent recordings, your sample rate should be 44.1 for cd

be at 128 kbps or killabites per second.
that's the quality of most cd recordings.

Recorder question

2008-09-01 Thread Brandon Hicks
Hi all,
I'm going to be going to a heavy metal concert in October. It's going to 
be in a club, not a stadium or anything like that.
Now I have an Iriver H340 with rockbox and a pair of external mics. 
They're custom made, and I'm not sure exactly what the capsules are.
My question is, would this work, or would anyone recommend getting an 
H2, or something else?
I can't really recreate the conditions in the house, or else I'd be able 
to test it myself and see if it'd work. So I'm asking those who've tried 
it, or who have the capability to put out lots of sound and see how the 
Iriver handles it with the latest Rockbox.
Or those of you who've tried recording concerts or other similar loud 
stuff with lots of bass with any of the other popular recorders out 
there for your opinions.

Thanks
Brandon

More on recorders

2008-09-01 Thread Brandon Hicks
Hi,
So I did some testing with the H340. And even with stuff I can put it 
through here, it's not going to cut it. Plus the fact that it only works 
properly 1 out of 4 times. So now my question is what would be a good 
recorder that isn't too noisy, will record for a few hours on a battery 
charge and will accept stereo mic input? I've looked at the H2, the R09 
HR and the Olympus LS10. If there are more, or someone has an old one 
that they want to sell, let me know.


Thanks
Brandon

Re: DS30 question.

2008-06-18 Thread brandon
hi their, I happen to own a ds thirty and one of the things that I find is a 
drawback is the limiter on it, you can't turn it off, but on the other hand 
the pro for it is it makes great recordings, sounds good and you can go 
through the menus with no problems at all.

 What's troublesome to me about the msgs Don complains about is that,
 because of them, we aren't able to see announcements which would have true
 value to the listers.
 They are not really spam; but, in many ways, they have the same effect on
 a list in dampening traffic which would benefit more list readers.
 It goes back for the argument of why a list should be moderated rather
 than being truly open.
 Note I said it argues and I am not suggesting that this should be done.

 It all depends on what you really want to do with the Olympus recorder.  I
 have the DS30  and like it just fine.  Now I will say,  I just use it for
 notes, and phone numbers, and messing around.  A speech are two every once
 an a while.  That's about it.  On HQ mono, which is what I use most of the
 time,   the DS30 will give you over 18 hours of recording time.
 With excellent quality,  So again I would make your choices, according to
 what you really want to do  with your recorder.

Hi,
In the latest Winamp there are plug-ins that allow it to handle 
PlaysForSure and ActiveSync. If either of those is how you connect, you 
can use the Winamp Library. I've never done it but I know the option is 
there. It really depends how your phone connects.

Re: dvd ripper and all music converter

2008-01-23 Thread Brandon Hicks
Hi,

For getting DVDs, I'd suggest DVD Decrypter. It can be found on the web, 
make sure you get the older version and don't check for updates. If you 
just want the audio from them, DVD Audio Extractor is wonderful and I've 
never had problems with it.

As for music conversion, I personally use Gold Wave, because it can use 
the Lancer OGG encoders. If you're converting from MP3, CDex is a nice 
program. Much faster, but encoding to AAC and such formats is somewhat 
trying.

Hi
Well, as long as you have the license for the WMA files, you can use the 
diskwriter plug-in in Winamp if you have that to write wav files, then 
convert them to mp3 or whatever with CDex. As for Real files, I have no 
idea. I've never even installed Real Player. Possibly something like 
Tunebyte when selected as the sound card in Real might do it a bit 
better, never used that either but I know it's out there.

satelite radio

2007-11-28 Thread Brandon Hicks
Hi all,
Sorry if this is too far off.
I'm thinking about purchasing some sort of satelite radio, and I'm 
wondering if anyone can recommend a device that fits the following:
Portable, so I can plug headphones in and use it like a standard radio.
Channel selection needs to be accessible. (not through a menu or touch 
screen)

Under $200 US
I really don't know which out of XM and Sirius is better for me, I'd 
mostly be listening to rock and metal music, so if one has a better 
selection of that type of music I'd go for that over the other.

Any suggestions are appreciated.
Thanks

with my Sound Max card as the input and output to see if it'll do the 
same thing. The output from the virtual cable to the main card is fine, 
just the input from my mixer breaks up. It works fine on my laptop.
My machine is a Lenovo 3000J with 1gb RAM and AMD Athlonx64 3800x2 
processors.
If anyone has suggestions, I'd appreciate them.

Hi,
It's using something from Nuance. I'm not exactly sure what it is, but 
if you go to humanware.com and find the only really poorly labeled link 
on that main page it'll take you to the Victor Stream page. From there 
you can find the link for the manual and read it online. The specs are 
the last chapter.

I'd like to have the name in the subject line. That's how I filter out

Kurzweil Error

2007-05-24 Thread Brandon Hicks
Hi all,
If anyone of you are on the kurzweil list, please forward this message 
to them in case they have any suggestions.
When I go to create Audio files with Kurzweil version 8 with Scansoft 
Lee with 15 pages per file and medium quality mp3 files being made, I 
get an error. Audiospooler.exe abnormal program termination.
I've never seen it before, and I have been able to create audio files in 
the past with other settings. Is this something with the RealSpeak voices?

An editing challenge

2007-05-23 Thread Brandon Hicks
Hi all,
I have a track here that I want to remix. I want to take it from a 
techno sound to a rock. This involves cutting out some synths and that, 
but I'm not really sure how to do that in stereo. I'd also like to 
center the vocals, they're kind of back and spread out a bit.
The song is called Captain Jack by the same artist, Captain Jack. If 
anyone can take a look at it and get ahold of me on msn, skype or via 
E-mail and give me some tips on how to accomplish this challenge with 
either Gold Wave or Sound Forge, I'd appreciate it.

Hi guys,
AudioStocker used to be a compression plug-in for Winamp to make

ACBradio.org's becoming a DJ section. It is still around, but it was 
integrated into a plugin that does way more stuff and is more advanced.

lowering the volume for voiceover

2007-04-30 Thread Brandon Hicks
Hi all,
I'm about to start a regular net broadcast show. I've got a question: 
I'm planning to use either Oddcast or the Sam encoders. I have 
Audiostocker doing compression with Winamp 5.33. What can I do to lower 
the volume of the music so I can talk over it? Will oddcast do this once 
the live recording is checked? What about the Sam encoders? If not is 
there a dsp that'll do it? I know the shoutcast 1.8 plug-in will do it 
in the advanced settings, but I'd rather not use it if I don't have to.

Re: I need help installing rockbox

2007-04-29 Thread Brandon Hicks
Hi David,
Installing Rockbox on the IPod doesn't take more than 3 minutes. All you 
have to do is run a program, hit a few keys, then copy and paste a 
directory and a file. The big part is replacing your music if it's in 
protected format if you have a lot of it.
I'd certainly be willing to help you through it if you needed any help, 
but I can't see a reason to ship your IPod to someone for a 3 minute, if 
not less, install.

Re: I need help installing rockbox

Hi,
What you need to do is first of all place the x5fw.bin in the firmware 
directory. Plug in the power cord before you paste that in there. Unplug 
the USB and turn the player off. Turn it back on again and that part 
should be done. Then, if you have the latest daily build, which is what 
you need, for the IAudio X5, copy and paste the .rockbox directory into 
the root and put the english.voice, again from a daily build, into the 
langs directory. You'll need to go to files to find your music, and 
resume playback once you've got stuff going.

Re: SanDisk Sansa e200 Series MP3 players.

2007-04-16 Thread Brandon Hicks
Hi,
I bought one of these units. I'll tell you about my experience with it.
The only software I installed, I don't remember if there was any more or 
not was the Sansa Updater. Other than that, I'd grabbed a PDF of the 
manual which was accessible and found out how to get it off MTP into MSC 
or mass storage mode. It was a fairly decent player, except for the fact 
that the wheel is rather fiddly. It's not solid, and one physical click 
of it doesn't necessarily mean only one movement.
A few days after I got mine, the updater killed it. I took it back to 
BestBuy and bought an IAudio X5.
The good news for you, if you're thinking about getting one, is that 
Rockbox is now supported on the Sansa E200 models, as long as they're 
not the R series. If you can get just an E250 260, 270 or 280 you can 
run Rockbox on it and have fully spoken menus and file names, better 
recording and more format support.

mp3 converter?

2007-04-07 Thread Brandon Hicks
Hi all,
Has anyone ever run into a music converter that can convert by bitrate?
What I mean is one I can load a folder into and define which files I 
want converted. Say for example I wanted to have all files with a 
bitrate greater than 192 kbps converted down to save some space. 
Normally, I'd either have to go through all the files and find the ones 
that were over, or just reconvert them all and get lower quality files 
taking up more space, defeating the whole purpose.
If anyone can recommend a program, please drop me a message.
Thanks,

Podcast Receivers

2007-03-07 Thread Brandon Hicks
Hi all,
I've got a question about podcast receivers. I've currently got the 
latest version of Juice. It's downloaded partial podcast files and 
called them complete. It also claims partial downloads that aren't 
anywhere on my computer. Is this expected behavior, the fault of my 
dial-up connection or something totally out there?
Regardless, does anyone have any suggestions for other JFW 7 friendly 
podcast receivers?
On a related, but not pc audio topic, what about RSS receivers. I saw a 
demo of the Icon recently, and the podcasts and RSS were integrated into 
one client. Is that done in any for the PC? And if so, do any of them 
work with JAWS and cash the RSS articles?

I'm relatively new to the whole thing, but I want to get started.

Re: I audio players

2007-02-26 Thread Brandon Hicks
Hi,
 From reading the manual, I'm pretty sure this isn't the case. To pop up 
the file browser in Rockbox, with the X5 you press the center of the 
joystick. You're then placed on your current song, and you use the left 
arrow to move up levels, up and down to move in that level and right to 
open a folder or open a song. I'm pretty sure there are more keystrokes 
needed with the stock firmware. A blind person should be able to do it 
as long as they have someone figure it out with them the first time.

If you have the X5, I can either attach and send or point you to a URL 
with lists of the menus in order with the latest stock firmware, to make 
it easier to use the features.

Hi,
As of right now, Rockbox only works on the X5. It can be ported by 
someone who knows how to code in whatever language Rockbox is in, to a 
few of the players as all the docs are there. But no one has done it 
yet. Most of the newer players aren't ported yet, because no one has 
taken them apart and figured out what sort of hardware they have inside, 
and the drivers to get them working with OpenSource.

ExpressTalk

2007-02-25 Thread Brandon Hicks
Hello listers,
I've got a quick question in reguards to ExpressTalk from NCH Swift 
Sound. The site says that it's a free program. However, yesterday I got 
a message notifying me that my demo has expired. Can anyone tell me 
what's up with this? Was there some other version I was supposed to 
download or something? I got the link for it on this list.
Speaking of NCH, the same thing happened with their program Switch. 
There was some sort of limit on that too when I was informed it was free.
Can anyone shed some light on this issue please?
Thanks,
Brandon

 Hi,
 In my opinion, BearShare is the best, with SoulSeek coming a close second.
 BearShare gets lots of results quickly and connects to the limewire network,
 I believe that's Nutella, so there are lots of videos and other stuff on
 there. You'll need a spyware program, AOL Spyware is the one I have, and it
 works excellent. I've also got Avast running, but these are standard
 precautions. SoulSeek has some rarer stuff, including music from other
 cultures, less duplicates and improperly named files. 
 It's fully accessible with scripts, and has some other fun features that let
 you find new friends.

Re: Availability of Software/Drivers for the Sony Netmd Walkman MZ-S1 Mini-Disk Player

2007-02-12 Thread Brandon Hicks
Hi,
I'm not sure if this has changed, but if you go to connect.com and 
download Sonic Stage from there, it may connect to your MD player. It 
did for mine a while ago, but I believe they may have changed the 
player. If this is the case, go to minidisk.org and search the forums 
for Sonic Stage. If you can find a version of 1.5 or greater, you should 
have no problems.
You may also want to check atraclife.com to see what alternatives are 
available for your recorder, since Sonic Stage isn't all that accessible.

Audacity

Hi all,
Does anyone use Audacity successfully? I've got 1.2.6 up here. I can't 
figure out a way to listen to the file after I've put an effect on it, 
or even to listen to it at all unless I export it, which seems pretty 
inefficient.
The help isn't accessible with JFW 7, has anyone gotten anything from 
it? I can arrow through the contents and the books, but F6 doesn't do 
anything, and neither do the graphical buttons. I've never run into a 
help system like that before.

Another way to convert AC3

2007-02-09 Thread Brandon Hicks
Hi list,
Just after I pointed out BeSweet and BeLight to the list, CoreCodec who 
hosted the GUI versions went down. However, I've found a new way to 
convert AC3.

What you need is Winamp, either the K Lite codec pack or AC3 Filter... 
basically the capability of playing AC3 in Winamp. Then you need an 
output plug-in for Winamp. I'm currently using Out_Lame, but any plug-in 
that outputs files, or can convert files without needing to output them 
should work.

Once you have these, you can simply add your AC3 files to a playlist. 
You can then use any Winamp command, with the Output plug-ins anyway, to 
convert. You can check how much time is left in the file, stop after the 
current track, probably stop with fade and any other standard Winamp 
commands. I've tested it so I know that output works with Out_Lame. It 
converts extremely fast, too. I've been doing 120 minute files in about 
30 minutes, and still retaining usage of my PC. This will depend on your 
processor, so you out there with the athlons can do it much faster, but 
everyone can do it.

I'm currently converting a file, downloading something and have a text 
file open. My fan's revved up to max, but I can still operate fairly 
fast on a sempron system.

Any questions you can email me offlist at

Re: Another way to convert AC3

2007-02-09 Thread Brandon Hicks
Hi,
Same process. If Winamp can play the format, it can convert it using the 
output plug-in. If it can't play that particular format, you'll have to 
check the input plug-ins page on winamp.com to find out if Winamp can 
support that. If you can find an input for it, you can output it using 
any output plug-in you want.

 I did back up my registry and the keys I altered. .

 If anyone has come across this problem before and has a solution, I'd sure 
 be happy to hear about it.

 By the way.  The keys I had to remove were apparently put there by ITunes. 
 ITunes was preinstalled on this computer and I think the problem started 
 when I uninstalled ITunes.  I'm not really sure exactly when the problem 
 started because I haven't used the DVD burner in a while.

Re: mini disc recorders?

2007-01-21 Thread Brandon Hicks
Hi,

I've used Sony's recorders before. I advise being very careful with 
them. If you're looking to use the recorder to transfer recordings or 
music to and from your PC, you'll have to do it analog. Sonic Stage 
isn't accessible at all, even with JFW 8. I believe there are 
alternative pieces of software out there that can accomplish the 
transfers, but I don't know how many, if any of them are officially 
supported by Sony. If you go to the Sony Store, or whatever the 
equivalent in your area is that only sells sony products, they can most 
likely help you. The people at the one where I live were very helpful.
As there are different programs for different models, I'd suggest trying 
them out first, just seeing if you can get around the U I then go buy 
the recorder.

I'd really suggest using something else, such as a hard drive based 
recorder, or the R09 or R1 or something for recordings.

Hi,

Someone mentioned K Lite's codec pack on this list. I went and

for what?
I looked in CDex and none of them showed up. The AC3 one works in

I also got a copy of Oggdrop XPD, but it doesn't seem to be accessible,

Hi,
If you want the 5.1 in AC3, DVD Decrypter does this. It's a bit weird to 
get the files, so if you want I'll write you offlist with instructions, 
but if you just want it in OGG or whatever else, as far as I know only 
OGG supports 5.1, DVD Audio Extractor is for you.

Speaking of, how much is it, and does the site support PayPal? I'm 
curious so that if I can get OGG files in one step for a reasonably 
cheap price instead of getting AC3 then going to OGG, I'll take it.

 There is now, and apparently has been for a while, an AC3

 basic design, involving different user interfaces.
 The site at which the guide for using one of the flavors is at:

 There you can download the command line version, and there is a link to
 the latest version of the recommended GUI. There are other downloads on
 the page of the command line version of this program. You may have to be
 cautious if you get the latest version of BeLight because there are
 compiles for different architectures, and I'm not exactly sure which
 ones work with which processors. I have the normal version on a Sempron
 3000 and I'm getting a few errors, so I'll have to test others and let
 you people know what I come up with.

EAudioBooks

2007-01-11 Thread Brandon Hicks
Hi all,
Recently, I've been looking for downloadable audio books. I've looked at 
Audible, but they only appear to accept credit cards as payment. Since 
it's a sure bet that none of the books I'm interested in would be in the 
free section there, I'm wondering what other options are out there.
Are there any audio book sites that offer downloads of audiobooks that 
can be paid for via debbit card, not credit, or a PayPal account? Or, 
even better, that provide free audio books that have been written in the 
past, say, 40 or 50 years?
I've seen a couple out there, but I lost my bookmarks when I moved to 
the Acer and my Compaq is long gone, and I can't seem to find the sites 
again. If any of you have stumbled on any such sites, please let me know.

DVD Audio Ripping

2007-01-10 Thread Brandon Hicks
Hi all,
I realize this discussion has been gone over countless times on this 
list and I appologize for doing it again.
Is there any way of either converting existing .AC3 files, without 
uploading them to one of those media converter services, to either WAV 
MP3 or OGG?
If not, is there a program that rips audio directly into OGG that 
doesn't have a 30 day demo like DVD Extractor? I assume they're smart 
enough to put code in so the program stops working after 30 days. If not 
I'll use this, but if so I'd like some other way of doing it.
Failing that, what rippers do MPG format? I can open those in Gold Wave 
and save the Audio as long it's done in MP3. I can then transcode it to OGG.

Thanks

Re: Somewhat urgent: Recording software

2007-01-01 Thread Brandon Hicks
Hi all,

I'm currently doing my recording. I found out that CDEx has a recorder, 
which I forgot about. It doesn't use temporary files like GoldWave and 
the others you mentioned, it encodes in realtime directly to any of the 
encoders available in the rip settings. This makes it quicker to pause, 
save and restart recordings at the commercials as all that is need is a 
few presses of tab and space. Gold Wave takes too long to save files in 
a compressed format, I'd end up missing large parts of the countdown. 
CDEx doesn't use up much processor power even with the direct encode, 
and knows to record from the line-in and nothing else.

Thanks for the suggestions
Brandon

 Hi all,
 There's a program tomorrow on a local radio station, the top 100 songs 
 of 2006. I'm wondering if there's any software out there to record 
 directly to MP3, instead of creating the temporary file in wav, or if 
 there's any way to tell Gold Wave to do it direct? I've only got about 
 20GB of space, which isn't going to be enough, I don't think, for the 
 temp file.

Hi,
I haven't gone through all of the files yet, but from what I've heard, 
and I did a few tests in MP3 they didn't skip at all. It could be that 
it skips later in the files, but I don't think so. I'll keep posted as 
to how it works out with pauses and such.
I'm recording into OGG at q1.0 with an encoder I got off rarewares.

5.1 channel card suggestions

2006-12-30 Thread Brandon Hicks
Hi all,
I've now got a surround system for my PC and for movies and games and 
such. I know that there are games out there for visually impaired people 
that take advantage of 5.1 audio. My question is, what sound cards are 
there out there for laptops, where they plug into the card slot or are 
USB powered that support true 5.1 audio, not just simulated surround 
sound, or can a regular card be used? I've got the Logitech X-530 
speakers at the moment. I'm also going to be receiving another set in a 
few days to compare them. They claim to have much better specs than 
these ones, but apparently have the same configuration. I can't find 
info on them.
Anyways, if anyone can tell me names and estimated prices for 5.1 cards 
that work reasonably well with JFW 8 and XP home on a laptop I'd 
appreciate it.

Thanks
Brandon

Hi,
Check the lists of phones on both manufacturer's sites. They both have 
complete lists of phones on there, I'm sure one from Sony was on both, 
or one, but I don't remember the model.
If you google both Talks and Mobile Speak separately you'll find the

You can check out Rockbox and see if it'll run with your IPod. I have 
Rockbox on my player, not an IPod, and it works great. Since it's a

Hi Joe,

If you press select while a track is playing, you go into the file 
browser. From there, if you press and hold select, you are brought into 
a file menu. The option that says bookmark is the one that will insert

This can be found in the manual.

Sound cards and 5.1

2006-12-27 Thread Brandon Hicks
Hi all,
Our family's about to get a home theater system. I'm wondering if it's 
possible to tell your sound card to play 5.1 surround or if you have to 
go out and find a sound card marked specifically for that?
Also, can 5.1 be transferred through standard RCA cable, the ones that 
have the standard mini audio connection on one end then goes to two 
plugs on the other, or again are special cables needed?

Thanks

Re: Speech software for the Treo Palm Pilot

2006-12-26 Thread Brandon Hicks
Hi,
You'll want to check to see what OS the phone runs on. There are three 
that it could use, possibly four. Some Palm devices use their OS, I'm 
not sure if there are separate ones for phones or not. It could also be 
using Pocket PC 03, Windows Mobile 5 or Windows Mobile Smartphone. There 
are differences in the three Windows ones, and you'll have to check on 
the sites of things such as Pocket Hal and Talks to see which ones they 
work with. As far as I know, Palm doesn't have any screenreading 
software out there. There might be some, but I haven't heard anything 
about it.

 Hello Lists!

 For Christmas, my wife gave me a Treo Phone (Palm Pilot 1 Device [their 
 latest model]).  I've heard of Palm Pilots, but never used one.  My main 
 question is: Is there any speech software available for this device?  I 
 installed the software and it has something called a Palm Desktop and 
 Palm 1 Quick Install on my desktop.  I think I can access the system 
 through these icons, but what about the phone itself?  This device has a 
 full keyboard, although very small keys, with a numpad directly in the 
 middle of the keyboard.  If anyone has this evice or has used it and know 
 about making it accessible, do let me know.  I've put juice to the battery 
 and getting ready to take a look at it today.

 Thanks for your help.

DSpeech Question

Hi all,

Has anyone else had a problem in DSpeech where lines aren't read 
continuously? Is there a way to fix this? I've taken a look at the 
documents in Notepad and the only thing I see is that instead of being 
naturally separated by the program, the documents have hard carriage 
returns in them. Is there a way to remove these or tell DSpeech to 
ignore them, or am I better off just using Kurzweil?

Re: Simulate stereo.

Hi,
I did this with a guitar track. I used a very minor delay. If it's too 
much, it will sound more like an echo, but something like 1 MS or so, 
maybe even less, will give you a stereo distinction. It takes a bit of 
experimenting, and I don't remember what I did exactly, but it did work 
beautifully.

Gold Wave Tip

2006-12-12 Thread Brandon Hicks
Hi all,

This is probably common knowledge, but I figured I'd put this up there. 
If you're recording in Gold Wave from the line in, but you really don't 
want to monitor the input, say if your friend gives you a tape he wants 
converted but the music isn't to your taste and you have other things to 
do, you can, in the Windows volume control, check the mute box in line 
in playback. GW will still record, which is excellent.

Re: The best MP3 player

2006-12-09 Thread Brandon Hicks
Hi Dane,
The Bookport doesn't record from line in from what I remember. It does 
internal mic. I read up about it a while back, before I found out about 
rockbox. Apparently they're coming out with a new unit, so it might be 
part of that one.

 Hi everyone!
 A very interesting thread this one but (for my needs at least) the  
 Bookport doesn't seem to be the best MP3 player but it is by no means  
 the only accessible mp3 player around. Take for example my Nokia N70  
 mobile phone using the Talks software, no trouble whatsoever  
 accessing the MP3 music player on that and no trouble whatsoever  
 transferring files to the phone from my computers or downloading them  
 from the net as the phone is both USB and bluetooth compatible, its a  
 WCDMA phone so you have the added benefit of broad-band internet  
 speeds for uploading and downloading, I've been using this little  
 beauty for ten months.
 Then of course there is my Iriver 340 which I've had for nearly 2  
 years now which has served me well with its ability to record, its  
 ease of upgrading to thigns such as Rockbox and the like etc.
 Then I have my CD Players here which will play MP3 files and so it  
 goes on.
 Well I looked at the Bookport and I have to admit it looks very nice  
 particularly if you're wanting to read allot of books etc but the  
 only downlside for my needs at least was the fact that I couldn't  
 find out whether this device could record say from a line-in audio  
 source, quite frankly for the amount of money I'd be paying for one  
 of these things I'd expect that to be part and parcel of the machine  
 but I do understand and respect the fact that everyone's needs are  
 different to everyone elses so therefor I'm reluctant to knock any  
 one product in favour of another.

Re: Best MP3 Player

2006-12-09 Thread Brandon Hicks
Hi,
Too bad I didn't know BookPort was supporting OGG. If I'd have known, I 
might have saved my money and coughed up the extra 70 or more dollars to 
buy it instead of my X5. Probably not, though. I'm happy with 20GB of 
rechargeable hard drive, playing DVD's and AAC files. I've got Kurzweil, 
so converting most books to MP3 is a matter of half an hour.
I think, and I'm not starting a war over this, or not intending to, that 
Rockbox is the way to go for MP3 players.

 Just my opinion here. Don't waste your money on MP3
 players/recorders made specifically for the sighted user. Buy
 the Book Port from APH. I use this device everyday to listen to
 podcasts and other media I download. I transfer the recordings
 Replay AV makes for me to the Book Port. You do not have to
 worry about what menu your on as the Book Port reads all the
 folders and files to you through your headphones. Uses double A
 batteries. I hear that there's a chance for a newer Book Port
 unit. Is this true? I would love to see the new BP to have a
 better recorder and smaller body. Support for WMA and WMA DRM
 would be awesome. Petro
