I'll take a good satire on the rose parade before the parade itself any day. A good four hours before the actual parade started, KPFK broadcast the parade. Well, it was a spoof, I think from the 70's, produced I believe by something called The Credibility Gap. This historic broadcast starts about

Assuming you have a fairly recent version of Kurzweil, go to the file menu, utilities submenu, and choose create audio files. Choose the number of pages per file and the audio quality. Dean -Original Message- From: pc-audio-boun...@pc-audio.org [mailto:pc-audio-boun...@pc-audio.org] On

I do this using an iMic. I don't worry about changing the JAWS default soundcard; I simply plug in the USB device and then JAWS comes through its headphone output, which is ok for the purpose. What happens if you just plug in the device to the USB port? Dean -Original Message- From: pc-

If you use JAWS, there are scripts that make Goldwave quite accessible, and much of this support also exists with Window-Eyes set files. So depending on what you're doing with these files, you may find the enhancements provided by the scripts justify the purchase. The other two programs you menti

I will sometimes want to take audio from dvd's and convert it to mp3. I imagine most of the dvd's whose content will interest me will be unprotected, but maybe I'll want to save the audio from some movie sometime. I already have Replay Converter, which does some of this, but only with unprotected

If you do a Google search for 7zip, you will get this very good free archive program that among other formats handles .rar format. Rar is an archive format like .zip. You have to unpack the files before you can play them. There are lots of other programs that will do the job as well. Dean

I would use your xp system. The two leading programs for recording streams are Replay a/v and Total Recorder. Both are good. I have always preferred Total Recorder. You can download a demo of Replay a/v to try it out, And there are audio tutorials for JAWS users at http://www.applian.com/sup

There is doubtless another way, but here is what I would do: 1. Add the two stations. From the shows menu, chose add station, Then enter the call letters into the dialog. Both stations are in the Media Guide, so it will be easy to add them. Hit the Add Station link. 2. For each station, g

Not as good as Sound Forge in this respect, but you can set the Zoom level to a particular interval, then use the arrows to advance by that level. Dean -Original Message- From: pc-audio-boun...@pc-audio.org [mailto:pc-audio-boun...@pc-audio.org] On Behalf Of Ray Sent: Sunday, February 01

This is an integral feature of Goldwave. From the file menu, choose Batch processing. You first add files to the batch on the conversion tab, then, on that same tab, choose the format and quality you want to convert to. It works very well. Dean -Original Message- From: pc-audio-boun..

KbPiano is a neat-looking little program that turns the computer keyboard into a music keyboard. It has features allowing you to create chords, blend instruments, and record your creation. It looks like it should work, but so far I have not gotten any music out of it. I've used the Pass Key Thro

On my Vista system, I had similar inability to access that high-quality feed. However, I used the WMF link, which entailed installing the Abacast plug-in. Once I did this, the stream played fine in Windows Media Player. I believe that high-quality mp3 link is defective, or at least non-standard.
