[all-audio] GoldWave Tutorials

2024-04-06 Thread Howard Traxler
I have uploaded an ASCII text of a tutorial, by John "Wilson, to 
sendspace.com. I have three others that are audio files and too large to 
put on the sendspace free. Anyone who can direct me where and how, I can 
share them with you.  They were offerred on the internet at no cost by 
their creators; and I am assuming they can freely be shared.

Now they also have the Reaper Made Easy podcasts.
But again Reaper is an actual DAW.
Like ProTules Logic Sonar and so on and so on.
What do you want to actually do? For speech only though $300 US there's even
Studio Recorder of APH.

Hello,

I haven't come across any Gold Wave resources. Audacity, someone set up a
podcast, which I've subscribed to but haven't spent the time in getting to
know it. Reaper has the reaper without peepers email list with an access to
a dropbox set of directories which has many resources. I haven't accessed
the dropbox archive for a few years now but I got the impression it was
updated regularly.

Hello.

The two programmes are not exactly equivalents. Reaper is much more
difficult to use, but it's also a more versatile programme that is a fully
fledged multi-track recorder, editor, and you can even use it to drive soft
synths and do midi. So it al depends on what it is you want to do. Reaper is
more demanding and pretty  much assumes you have good audio hardware right
out of the box. It works with aseo (sp) and Goldwave doesn't, but that also
means, if you use a screen-reader, it's bestif it is on its own  audio
output in windows.
Goldwave is a great programme that can do all sorts of audio processing --
one track at a time. It's not really made for music production. But it can
still use vst effect plugins. I have used it for ages. Unfortunately I have
had some trouble with the latest versions, first with a keyboard command
glitch (I consider it a problem because even though there's a solution it's
not really documented anywhere I can see), and dictation mode, which I use a
fair bit, not working. Still, you can get an older version if you want.
As for usability with a screen-reader, they both are, but you will certainly
have to take some time to study up, read documentation and so on. It'll be
more of a long haul with reaper for sure, so if you are just starting out
and not going to work with music production or midi stuff, I would think
goldwave would be an excellent tool. There's also audacity of course, which
is kind of somewhere in between Goldwave and Reaper in terms of its'
abilities. It has a weird interface that I think isn't much like most daw
software, but that could actually be an advantage if you can't see the
screen and haven't used any other ones.

Hello,

I forgot, there was a set of free courses for GoldWave and Reaper by CAVI,
very much out of date now but I mention them because getting started with
audio is not seeking a DAW. The lectures for both DAWS were the same to
start with. These lectures were on subjects such as; What is sound and how
is it generated?
How does a microphone work and what are the different types of microphone?
What kinds of cables are required for audio production?
What is an interface and which one do I need to get started?

These are basic principles that are very important and I'd suggest an
essential for getting into audio as it will save lots of head scratching and
unnecessary waisted purchases.

I just tried using my browser book mark and it appears that the domain has
been pulled. Which is sad as the SD card that I had them stored died a few
years ago.

Thanks Tim.  That sure did it.  Full of funny burbles but good enough to

Seems like, in the past, I could change the speed/tempo of a music

all your important stuff on a drive that can be disconnected from the

Hey Tom.
The touch cursor is activated with shift + numpad plus if you are on the 
desktop layout. However, the workaround I think he is talking about involves 
activating the jaws cursor, then going to virtual  cursor mode, or possibly 
routing jaws to PC, in order to fix the problem that both edge and chrome share.
Sorry, I can't really walk you through system restore at the moment, but can come back 
later. In the meantime, you can type "system restore" into the search box in 
windows, and see if you have any recent restore points. If it's recent enough for your 
liking, you can revert to it, and get your old version back. You will also lose anything 
you installed or modified in settings after the restore point was made. If you haven't 
manually turned on system restore, the most recent restore point might be from some time 
ago. I believe large windows updates still automatically generate them, but automatic 
system restore is off in Windows now for some reason.

When you encounter the issue in tappin, try activating the touch cursor and 
then going back to the PC cursor.
I have Jaws 2023 and the paid version of Tappin. However, I need to reinstall 
Tappin in order to update and test this as I have not installed it yet on my

Philip, your suggestion isn't a procedure I'm currently used to

When all's said and done, perhaps updating to the latest versions

You're right!  It went in without a problem.  It even set up the input 
device the way I wanted.  Now I'm having trouble with the mic.  Have a

Is this "Shift +E" command part of GoldWave or part of an NVDA addon or

Hello Darren

I don't know whether this is what you're looking for,
But, Regarding obtaining a file length reading,
I tend to use
Shift +E,
This brings up a dialogue box.
 From here, just tab till you hear, finish
And it will read out the file duration.

You can also use this same dialogue option to jump to specific points in
your file.
To do this, use the "Time Start" option (the first dialogue box in the menu)
to entre the time from where you would like to start listening and tab to
"OK.".

Hope this helps.

When I finish a recording, my first action is to always hit control a to get

Other things have coincided with this behaviour, dropping a marker is no

finish.

This is really effecting my ability to edit, especially as many of the
keystrokes are deeply imbedded in muscle memory. The constant having to slow
down and make these awkward adjustments to get accurate file lengths etc is
proving to be really frustrating!

Does this sound like an issue anyone can offer up a solution for? I've run

[all-audio] How to make my Winamp play?

2022-09-07 Thread Howard Traxler
Good morning all,
Using Windows 11 with NVDA and Winamp 5.9.  In file explorer, I enter on an mp3 
file and winamp comes up but it doesn't play.  When I hit x for play, it just 
plays the last thing played.  To get it to play something new, I have to go 
into the play menu and use its dialog box to navigate to the file I want to 
hear.  Previously, I could find an mp3 file and press enter; then Winamp would 
come up and play the track.  Now it just shows the main window.  Ideas, anyone? 
 Thanks.
Howard

Installing Winamp 5.666 on a win11 machine.  When Winamp is running and

Is there a way to stop Winamp from doing this?

Re: [all-audio] GoldWave 6.51

2022-06-11 Thread Howard Traxler
You can jump forward and back with the right and left arrows but 
something has to be turned on; or maybe off.  Can't remember what it is 
now.  And you can change the size of the jump with the number keys; it's 
on the view menu.

Running GoldWave 6.51 on a Windows 10 desktop with Jaws 2022.

I haven't used GoldWave for a couple of years, so things may have
changed from older versions. When using a screen reader, how do I
move quickly through a large .wav file? I can't just use the
right or left arrow keys. I want to set q points in a large .wav
file but cannot do so unless I can somehow move quickly through
the file.

Thanks in advance for ideas.

Re: [all-audio] corrupted files

2022-05-27 Thread Howard Traxler
But I used Recuva on it, a program that's supposed to get it all back.  
Well, it's all back but they are empty files.  I tried to get GoldWave 
to make them well again but it just crashed.  I opened one of them in 
notepad and it just seemed to be full of spaces.  I guess I just go back 
to the source of all those files and see if he's willing to send them 
all again.



Yeh Tom, not a good habit.  Trying to break it.

I usually use Winamp.  or GoldWave.  I also have foobar, VLC, audacity, 
and, of course, Groove and WMP; but I don't know those vary well.  I 
guess I'll try loading a couple into GoldWave first and see  if it 
plays.  If not, then I'll try the others.


Appreciate your thoughts.

Howard:  I don't know that my description will be completely accurate, but here

it's made out of, but it'd be something (not that I ever would want to have to do 
it) but you could club someone over the head with that thing and put their lights 
out!  It has legs that unfold and set it up like a desk mic (don't know the 
dimensions) it is a USB mic; something that I have found out recently could be a 
"not-so-good thing if you plan to record music with it, due to the way it works 
with latency!  But if you're going to do voice chatting, it works very well in my 
opinion!  Now the model I have (and I really don't have a model number) but it has 
no buttons on it (I know that they make one (or maybe used to )that had either a 
button or switch that adjusted the volume of the mic.  However, this one I have does 
not work in this way!  So I hope that my description gives you some idea of what 
this thing looks like and how it works!

Went into the search box with the windows key and entered "stereo". Got 
a series of settings functions.  The first one was a toggle called mono 
and it showed pressed so I unpressed it.

[all-audio] question about ableton live

2021-11-24 Thread Howard Traxler
Anyone here know about (or even used) Ableton Live?  It seems to be a 
music production program.  I installed it and tried to run it (under 
windows 10 and NVDA) but it seems to not respond to any commands.  It 
won't even shut down.  Maybe it's not a good thing to have, huh?

Thank you Joe Paton.  The control-l did it.  But in the past, it was one

which one is the scroll lock.  Tried all three and now learnt something new.

[all-audio] GoldWave and skip forward and back

Using a pretty recent version of GoldWave with Win10 and NVDA.  Want to 
skip forward and back using right and left arrows.  It doesn't move at 
all.  It seems like there's a setting that I need to turn on or off but

Thanks Robert,  However, in the dialog selection you described, there 
are two possible sound devices.  I don't remember the exact messages but 
they indicate that the devices are not available.  It seems that I'll 
have to go into windows control panel, sound devices and make some 
settings.  I get lost in there.  I have to keep trying because I want to

In Goldwave, press F11, this should bring you in to System.

If it doesn't say System, tab until you here help then tab once more.  
Now you can press right Arrow until it say System.


If you tab once from System you should here Playback.  Up and down 
until you get the sound card you use for playback.  Then tab and you 
will here Record, again up and down Arrow until you here the sound

I hope this helps.

[all-audio] Recording with GoldWave

2021-01-24 Thread Howard Traxler

Hi All,
Before my Windows update, recording with GoldWave worked fine.  Now, 
when I try to record, I get the error message: Cannot start recording.  
And it refers me to "Help".  Help just opens the manual.  Google tells 
me that  the error pertains to in input device.  The input (and output) 
device seems to be WASAPI.  Is that a problem and how can I change it if 
necessary; and what should I change it to?


Thank you to anyone who can help.

Hi,

The usb plug is internal to the dm720.

With the display to the top and in front of you, there is a protruding slide
button which you need to press and push down. Doing this will extrude the
plug, and the dm720 can then be directly plugged into your USB port.

Hope this helps.

Hi Howard,

When in CDEX, press F4. Arrow up or down to Encoders. Tab and you will come to 
options for the bit rate, VBR etc. The time it takes to rip might have 
something to do with your quality setting which you will come to if you keep 
tabbing. The higher the quality setting, the longer it will take. I set mine to 
high.

Hi Andy,

If you heard them converting then you don't need to press anything else.

By default, I think the files are placed in the CDEX folder in
Program Files. To find out where, when in CDEX, press F4. Arrow up
or down to Directories & files and tab 3 times. You should hear the
directory where the files are. This can be changed.

If the titles are 01-AudioTrack 01.mp3 etc, then you need to
configure CDEX to look up the titles database. Of course, it might
not have that particular CD.

I've download a programme called CDEX and tried to convert the CD

I knew that when loaded I'd simply have to press F9.

I heard JAWS announce each track being converted.

Now whet?

I've looked inMy Documents and also My Music but there is nothing

I think I need to press a second button, perhaps F8, F9 10 or 11.

Can anyone please remind me just how to go through the steps of
converting please.

Re: [all-audio] CDEX

2020-06-08 Thread Howard Traxler

Thanks, guys, for all your help. But now:
This thing takes from 20 to 30 minutes to rip a 45 minute CD.  It used 
to work a lot faster when I did it on my XP machine.  Have I got 
something set wrong?  And I'd like to rip at a fixed rate of 128, but 
it's giving me a variable bit rate.  How can I fix that?

One more question about CDex:
I think I downloaded 1.77.  Wonder if it's 32 or 64 bit program? Which folder 
should it go in?
Program Files
or
Program Files (x86)
?
Once I get it in place, I'll set it up properly.

I just tried it and it works for me.

Hi Barry.

I whent into my programe files and found it sitting there.  I entered

My old copy of CDEX was years ago, so now this bata version also
titles eeach track so that's magic.

I'm going to mess about more with it tomorrow because what's the use
of CD's anyway?

Hi Andy,

If you heard them converting then you don't need to press anything else.

By default, I think the files are placed in the CDEX folder in
Program Files. To find out where, when in CDEX, press F4. Arrow up
or down to Directories & files and tab 3 times. You should hear the
directory where the files are. This can be changed.

If the titles are 01-AudioTrack 01.mp3 etc, then you need to
configure CDEX to look up the titles database. Of course, it might
not have that particular CD.

Barry Chapman

Hi all.

I've recently purchased from Amazon the last and final album from Mr
Leonard Cohen, who has recently passed away.

I wish to keep this CD in the best of nick, though wish to listen to
it on my Win10 computer.

I've download a programme called CDEX and tried to convert the CD
into Wav or MP3 files.

I knew that when loaded I'd simply have to press F9.

I heard JAWS announce each track being converted.

Now whet?

I've looked inMy Documents and also My Music but there is nothing
new in any of these.

I think I need to press a second button, perhaps F8, F9 10 or 11.

Can anyone please remind me just how to go through the steps of
converting please.

Very best wishes.

Andy.

Re: [all-audio] Olympus DM-720 impressions?

2020-05-18 Thread Howard Traxler
Tom, have you ever had or had reason to know about the 520?  I'm 
wondering how much like the 520 is the 720?  I.E., the input jack is 
shared between mic and line and is located at the business end between 
the microphones; the audio output jack is 3.5MM and located on the side; 
the remote control jack is 2.5MM and also on the side; the USB port is 
also the charging connector and is on the end away from the mics; the 
power and key lock is a slider on the side near the record, stop and 
play buttons.  This describes the 520.

Re: [all-audio] olympus recorders

2020-05-16 Thread Howard Traxler
Thank you Hamit, for your thoughts.  Talking with the Olympus 
distributor, I got the impression that the 720 was just like the 520.  
Any time I used the 520 for music, I either transferred the files to my 
computer or just connected the 520 directly to my stereo.  To my old 
ears, it sounded as good as I could want.

Ah hi Howard. Ah the good old trusty DM-520. I too had 1. I had the 
420 before. Meh I don't know why Olympus made 2. They were basically 
the same thing but the 520 did a few more things and the reason I 
prefered it is that it did LPCM WAV. Of course only at CD or DVD 
quality. But hay DVD is better then your usual Olympus stuff. The 720 
like the P-4 takes 1 triple A and is small. The sound of the 720 and 
the LS-p4 is too mini me for my liking. I'm sure 1 can get these older 
recorders on Ebay. Hell I've even seen the DM-620 on Amazon.

that they no longer support that model and they suggest I purchase a

[all-audio] GoldWave recording level

2019-09-28 Thread Howard Traxler

Hi All,
I'm using win10 64 pro on an HP SFF with a Realtek sound card, current 
NVDA, GoldWave 5 something, and an external sound source (Victor Reader).


Can't get the recording level to produce a recording as high as the 
actual sound feeding through the sound card or any other sounds already 
recorded.  Any ideas?  Thank you.

[all-audio] for a sighted user

2019-08-24 Thread Howard Traxler

Hi folks,

I would like to set up a system that my wife could use---with no 
computer knowledge.  I have computers with assorted operating systems 
and external drives /music folders, and input (audio) to her TV and 
stereo system.  Is there a software package that she could use  to make 
our music play into her tv and sound system?



Thank you much.


Howard

[all-audio] Portable Audio Converter

2019-07-22 Thread Howard Traxler

Hello Listers,


Has anyone here purchased what they call a

"Portable Audio Converter"?

It's a little square box that will accept audio (two-channel stereo) 
from a line level source and digitize it directly to a thumb drive or SD 
card.  It's price is in the $40 range.



I bought one of these and started using it to digitize my records and 
cassettes.  I started using 16 gig thumb drives.  It would start 
recording andsometimes stop before the program material ended.  I 
returned it to the dealer who tested it out and determined that I should 
just not use 16 gig cards.  They returned it to me and I've now been 
using it on an 8 gig card and it seems to work fine.  Wonder what it 
would do with cards or thumb drives larger than 16 gig?



I'm wondering about anyone else's experience with this device. It's not 
blind-friendly, but I like it anyway.



Anybody else have one?


Howard

Re: [all-audio] Little Sub-Woofers

2019-07-02 Thread Howard Traxler
Seems you could be right:  smaller cones to make further excursion could 
produce greater sound pressure and low frequencies.  I have not taken 
one of these apart so don't know about construction.  Wonder it they are 
ported or non-ported. Wonder if one can purchase speakers of this type 
to build home made speaker systems.  I still like my 15 inch woofers in 
large cabinets best; and using high-powered amplifier.

Howard,

There are a couple of ways that companies are getting more out of small subwoofers.  
Probably the biggest thing is that they can partly make up for the lack of efficiency of 
smaller cones and cabinets by electronically equalizing the signal and by including 
higher power internal power amplification.  Also, sometimes speaker cones are used that 
can move further than they used to.  This means they can be driven harder.  Some of the 
smaller subwoofers really do an amazing job.  I have heard a couple, though, that do well 
at deep base but sometimes tend to "double", where low bass notes have their 
harmonics produced more than on the larger subwoofers.  Therefore, one needs to listen 
carefully to be sure you are getting what you want.

Best regards,

Steve Jacobson

Re: [all-audio] TV speakers.

2019-05-05 Thread Howard Traxler
We have a Sony TV that we got a little over three years ago. The 
installers gave me an HDMI cable (looks home made) with RCA male jacks 
on the other end.  I plug them into my stereo auxilary inputs and, of 
course, have window-rattling speakers on the other end..  The three RCA 
females on the TV are for input only.  Other ways of input are through 
HDMI connections.

I???ve seen 2.1 channel soundboards about the place which work

The other option might be getting something like a Key Egg system

The one good thing about all the Amazon speakers now is that they have line-out 
so you can use them with some other powered speakers, stereo Amplifier etc.
The newer generation of Amazon Echo speakers have something called Dolby 360 
and I tend to think this is a marketing therm rather than actually meaning that 
the speaker is stereo.
It seems that - if you’re talking Smack Speakers - then you’re better to stick 
to the Smart Speaker brands themselves such as Amazon and Google.
I have a Google Home Mac smart speaker here which is supposed to be the best 
sounding speaker in the Google range and its not bad but it is not portable and 
certainly wouldn’t fit the requirements of the original author of this thread.
What I really like about the Google Home Max is its auto room tuning function.
In many cases multi room speakers system are back to where it all started - 
feeding both stereo channels into one speaker - so in order to get stereo you 
need “A Pair”.
There are multi room speakers that come as a stereo speaker such as the Denon 
Heos 7 and Heos 5 speakers.
The Denon Heos 3 and Heos 1 are speakers speakers which you can pair together 
and that actually has advantages.
You might just want to use one Denon Heos 3 speaker as a centre speaker for 
example.
Getting back to the Google Home Max speaker I mentioned earlier.
I’m considering getting another to make a pair.
When the Mac lays horizontally its a stereo speaker though separation isn’t all 
that good.
When the Max stands vertically it is a mono speaker and can be part of a pair 
if there are 2 Max speakers.
You can do similar things with amazon echo speakers.

Then you have monorral speakers that some times can be paired as a synchronous

Any sound card I've ever used is controlled via software.  In windows xp

Someone who knows more than I about that transmitter, may be able to
point you to a deviation adjustment if there is one.

Yes Tom, you're doing it the way I would.  With the control on the

Any sound card I've ever used is controlled via software.  In windows xp

Open file security warning.  I have to uncheck a box before it will

Thank you Colin,  That was certainly the problem.  I read something 
about scroll lock in the manual; but that's a key I never touched in 32 
years of playing with computers.  Of course, I thought it meant the 
scroll lock key on the keyboard. So I pressed that one a few times which 
did nothing.  Now I did the view menu choice and it works like I 
expected.  I, too, can't imagine what that command is for.  Now I have 
to try to remember all the other GoldWave stuff I forgot in the last 
three years since my main XP machine went down.



Thanks again.

[all-audio] Winamp Focus

2018-10-30 Thread Howard Traxler
Hi All,
Did anyone figure out how to make the Winamp window stay in focus?  When I 
start Winamp using a folder view in Windows Explorer, the Winamp window goes 
away.  I have to restart Winamp.  Then I can toggle between Winamp and the 
folder view..

Thanks.
Howard

[all-audio] I think I broke my GoldWave

2018-10-29 Thread Howard Traxler
Hi all,

I was looking at some of the recording setttings in my latest goldWave (under 
win10 64 and NVDA) and I must have made some undesirable changes.  I'm now 
hearing (in the playback of an existing file) very loud white noise and sped up 
audio of the file.  I'd just like to set GoldWave back to its default settings. 
 Can't seem to find it in the manual or in the menus.  Any thoughts, please?

Thanks.
Howard

Re: [all-audio] CC EP Pro Radio continued

2018-10-10 Thread Howard Traxler
Dane, you are generalizing.  Some ham radio guys know the stuff and some 
don't.  Whichever I am is no concern to anyone but me.  All I am saying is:


(only an opinion); broadcast radio and TV, these days, is nothing but a vast 
waste land and not worth the price of any type of receiving device.

I think you're missing the point.
This radio is a very reasonably priced and good sounding set so no matter 
what your radio listening habits - long distance or local - then it’s a set 
worth getting.
And please forgive me again but those who use Ham radio sets I've found 
wouldn't know a a good sensitive long distance receiver if they fell over 
one.
Yep I know that Kenwood are recognised for transceivers as are Uniden and a 
whole heap of other companies but they're not known for long distance 
reception of the type I'm talking about, you need nice antennas to be strung 
up, nothing wrong with that at all but I like to move around.

Shame you feel that way as there’s plenty to recommend a radio such as this
if you’re thinking from a content perspective.
Actually one could argue that its probably better to be able to listen to
long-distance radio given the rubbish some local city stations broadcast and
then you’ll never know unless you try receiving these stations so therefore
you’ll need something good to receive them on in the first place.
So enter the CC EP Pro as a very good starting point for a most reasonable
price.
There aren’t too many radios that come near the CC EP Pro as far as
performance these days and I’ve had my view confirmed when scanning about
the band and listening to the set earlier this morning.
Yes, you can go for all those vintage sets if you like as I myself have done
but its really not worth the bother doing that unless you know someone in
the repairs business.
Let’s take the classic GE Super Radio version II, I got one in 1990 and I
gave it away.
Now suppose I was offered one of those sets today the question then arises,
should I buy or should I settle for something else like a CC EP Pro? To me
the answer is obvious, forget about the GE Super Radio and take the CC EP
Pro.
The GE Super Radio would most likely require an alignment and finding
someone to do that may take some time.
The CC EP Pro is as good as - if not a little better in some ways - as the
GE Super radio was.
The CC EP Pro is far quieter whereas the GE Super Radio was quite noisy in
comparison.
The CC EP Pro in my view has a definite performance edge when it comes to
receiving those distant stations not only for the lack of noise but because
of its pinpoint accurate DSP tuning, the CC EP Pro is about as selective a
radio you’ll find anywhere.
The GE Super radio may sound a little better but the amp isn’t much good and
you’re not going to get much volume out of it.
The CC EP Pro lacks a little bottom but does have a smaller speaker.
So yes, whatever your listening habits - local or distant, AM or FM - then
the CC EP Pro is certainly worth the look, I can’t remember the exact price
of the radio now - I obviously pad to pay quite a bit more to have the unit
shipped to Australia -, the price is well under a hundred US dollars.

Hi again!
I had the pleasure of receiving my CC EP Pro AM/FM radio around half an 
hour ago so I’ve been able to do some quick testing of this unit.
Firstly for the price its an absolute bargain if you’re wanting a 
modern-day “Super Radio” but the radio isn’t without some annoyances.
The first is with the sound, not much bottom but enough I guess, certainly 
a lot of very nice crisp top.
You have to be extremely careful how you tune this radio, you can’t go 
racing up and down the dial as you can with a standard analogue type 
radio.
The CC EP. is in fact a radio with an Analogue dial but tunes in steps of 
9 or 10KHZ selectable and you can hear the radio step as you tune slowly 
up or down the band.
If you tune too fast then you’ll miss hearing those weak signals and may 
actually hear nothing at all if you tune at speed.
So that out of the way the other thing to remember is that you may not 
hear a correct representation of the received signal when you first tune 
there, this radio has some traits of that annoying Soft muting so wait a 
second of two before passing judgement.
The next thing the user has to bare in mind is that the CC EP Pro - like 
the former CC EP - has a tuneable ferrite twin coil antenna.

Normally leaving the tuning knob at its middle detent should give you 
reasonable reception anywhere on the AM band but I have found that if you’re 
prepared to tune about with this knob you can improve the reception 
significantly, something you quickly get used to.
The next thing to note is that this radio is extremely directional, is that 
good or bad? Well if you’re wanting to say nun out very weak stations next 
to very strong one’s then the directionality of this portable is a pure God 
Send and can make quite a dramatic difference.
What it also means is that you may have to move the radio around a little 
bit to get optimal reception of your tuned station.
All that aside then the radio is still a pure joy to use, simple but yet 
very affective at the job it was designed for, to enable the user to enjoy 
both local and long distance AM/FM broadcast with a reasonable quality sound 
not found on a lot of today’s radios.

Re: [all-audio] HDMI to RCA

2018-07-29 Thread Howard Traxler
When we bought a wide screen TV, back in 2015, the dealer made up a 
connecting cable that goes from an HDMI port on the TV (has two RCA males) 
to the input of my old-fashioned analog stereo amp.  Don't know what they 
charged us, but it works fine.

Subject: [all-audio] HDMI to RCA



Hi!

A month or so ago one of our members posted an eMail looking for a device
that would convert HDMI to RCA.

I decided to do some research to see if such a device was available as it
would seem perfectly logical for such a device to be in existence 
somewhere

even though the among of RCA connections might be rather large given that
the latest version of HDMI can handle more than 13 channels of audio along
with Goodness knows what else in the video department.

Alas I ssaw absolutely nothing that would convert HDMI to RCA whether that
be dedicated audio, Video, or even just 2 channel HDMI.

So I went to speak to an audio engineer friend of mine to see if such a
device was even possible to manufacture.

I'm told that - whilst such a device could easily be built - it would cost
far too much to do so.

Apparently all manufacturers of equipment who use the HDMI system have to
pay a license fee of around $150 per unit where HDMI is used so there goes
any chance of buying a HDMI to RCA converter.

Shame really as I don't doubt the usefulness of such a device so - in the
case of the Apple TV or any other device that has only a HDMI interface -
your only options are to either feed the Apple TV directly into a modern 
TV

which has HDMI inputs or into a modern Surround-Sound receiver which also
has HDMI inputs and can integrate thus with a modern TV.

HDMI inputs are not commonly found on stereo Hi-Fi equipment such as
dedicated amplifiers and the like given that these devices handle audio 
only

and not video.

Cheers!

Seems like you could go into the winamp settings and somewhere in there is a
