Re: [all-audio] A rather strange sound problem
Yes. With my old PC it worked without a problem. Although I'm seriously thinking about moving from Bluetooth wireless to Wi-Fi wireless for headphones as in addition to this problem I'm also noticing a slight popping sound when using my Screenreader. I've read somewhere that this is due to the headphones going off when nothing is being transmitted and then back on again each time Jaws tries to say something. It is a little annoying.

[all-audio] h1n furder findings not discussed yet by anyone
Ok, I got one of these for a few days now, and now hope to answer stuff that were still remained unclear. When working with the four buttons, audio format, LowCut, limiter, and auto gain, its best to give each to quick presses to ensure that you actually toggle a setting, because the first press only give status as to the current setting value. The formats in sequence, are to my knoledge: wave 44.1/16bit. Wave 48/16bit, wave 48/24bit, wave 96/24bit, mp3 128kbps, mp3 192 kbps, mp3 256kbps, mp3 320kbps. You can here the LowCut and limiter when they on/off when having headphones connected. To access the extra recording features, there is no menu button. You must hold down the stop button, then while holding down, the for buttons become the following from left to rite. Auto record, pre record, self timer, and sound marker. This makes it very easy to change settings. So while holding down stop, you press the auto gain button for example, twice, and it will turn on/off the sound marker. When doing playback, this is what happens. After pressing play, the back and forward buttons will skip files, and to forward/rewind you must hold them down. But dearing playback the four buttons shows the following. from left to rite: Mark, info, repeat, and moad. And the marks you create when pressing the mark button only once per time, will be usable in goldwave/soundforge. I don't manage to see the marks in total recorder. When pressing the LowCut wich become info dearing playbac, you enter a file info screen wich you must navigate, and don't have much use to us normally, so I didn't play there really. Repeat also is working by pressing the button twice quickly to change between, repeat one, repeat all, and off. When pressing the auto gain button wich became moad dearing playback, a new screen appears. Then you find that the buttons from left to rite become: Speed, Sound/EQ a - b repeat, and return to previous screen. As the file play you will here as you change speed with the audio format button, or the EQ with the LowCut button. Same with A B repeat. And also while in that screen, the forward and back buttons will move more rapitly fru the file when pressed and let go as suppose to holding them down. If you stop playback you can exit that screen or just press the auto gain button wich will take you to the first playback screen you get when pressing play, wich contain mark, info, repeat, and mode. When connecting to pc this is what you get, the USB screen each time a cable is connected, will lands on audio interface mode or whatever they call it. You then need to press the limiter once to move to card reader and then press the auto gain button wich will act as enter, and mass storage will connect. When disconnecting from pc, and this was never discussed, I guess there could be more than one way to do it, I don't no, but this is what I found. I press and hold down the stop button, then the format button becomes direct monitor on/off, and the auto gain button becomes exit. So while holding stop I press auto gain once, then the exit screen comes up, then I press LowCut wich is up arrow, and auto gain for enter, then it will return to the main screen and you will here pc disconnect. If you don't interact with it after removing the cable it won't return to your file list or recording screen. As for sound card mode, this is what you get. When inserting the cable, it will move to audio interface mode each time. Now you press auto gain to enter, then you can choose between pc/mac or ios. It will land on pc/mac each time you press enter on the audio interface option. So you can just press enter again, then it will ask for wich sorce you want to use for power, Buss power or batteries? It lands on buss power each time that promt is accessed, so you can just press enter again. Only then your inputs and outputs will appear in windows/mac. I stil have to figure out ios mode. When deleting a file you press delete, then LowCut for up arrow, then enter/auto gain to except/confirm. I stil have to figure out how to delete marks on the recorder. Currently I delete them from GoldWave. Lastly, to access the setting screen, (sited help is well needed here) you hold down delete while powering on. to update the firmware after copyed the bin file to the SD card, you hold down the play/pause button while powering on. And to overdub, you hold play/pause and then press record. Just keep format set to wave. Hope this can help as only some things were breethly mentioned and the manual not well rittin.

[all-audio] A rather strange sound problem
Hi all, please bear with me whilst I describe the situation. My desktop has an in-built sound card (NVIDIA) and a separate sound card (Strix). The former is used for my Screenreader (Jaws or NVDA) and the latter for recording via the line-in from sounds coming from my Amp. I often like to listen to what I am recording whilst I am cooking in the kitchen, and in order to do this I connect a pair of Plantronics headphones via a Bluetooth dongle. When these are plugged in and turned on, all the sounds from my in-built sound card I.E. Jaws and Windows come via the headphones. If I go in to the recording tab sheet of the sounds dialogue in windows no sound is heard at all. This only happens in that tab sheet and in no other. Additionally it only happens when the Plantronics headphones are connected. Luckily I have a braille display and am able to select the line-in and via it's properties select the listen checkbox. Once I've left that dialogue and the recording tab sheet Jaws, windows and the sound from the line-in all start playing over the headphones without an issue. If anyone is still reading thanks. Does anyone know why sounds disappear when in the recording tab sheet but nowhere else? I used to have a similar setup with my previous computer and this didn't happen. I'm running Windows10.

If you want a professional audio recorder then you’re better off starting with the Zoom H1N and working your way up from there. For most audio recording jobs however the Olympus LS-P4 can really shine. Line-In jobs are a bit of a pain but can be done with the use of an attenuation patch cord. The other remarkable thing about the LS-P4 is the amount of recording time you can get out of 1 AAA rechargeable battery. Obviously the higher the sample and bit rate then the more battery power is used but battery life can be improved significantly if you choose to record in MP3 which may be all you need of you’re recording lectures or other voice content. The Olympus recorders offer plenty of scope for power saving including the turning off or dimming of lights and as some of us have no vision anyway lights are something we don’t really need. > On 9 Sep 2019, at 9:42 am, Hamit Campos > wrote: > > Ah if ya want perfect than 1 must get the 744-T or what ever the > new > thing is now.

Re: [all-audio] digital audio recorders: looking for a specific type
So what aspect of sound are you referring to, playback sound? If so then the LS-P4 has a smaller internal speaker than the LS-14 and the LS-P4 on playback through the internal speaker sounds compressed so again, wise to use headphones or another speaker of some sort. The whole point of internal speakers to me is totally irrelevant as I’ve never believed portable recorders should have them anyway - and most of the better quality recorders don’t -, I’d rather a top quality speaker or no speaker at all. > On 9 Sep 2019, at 7:27 pm, Aidan wrote: > > The dm7 is also just as accessible as the dm4, and it seem to be gone, > but what I like to know, is how does the sound of the lsp4 compair to > the ls14?

Re: [all-audio] digital audio recorders: looking for a specific type
The dm7 is also just as accessible as the dm4, and it seem to be gone, but what I like to know, is how does the sound of the lsp4 compair to the ls14? Also the auto gain. I normally like olympus auto gain, but on the ls14 they didn't do a good jog there.

First is its size which is of that of a small candy bar. Yes the menus talk and you can also set the clock however the file listing doesn’t talk though that would be the only thing. The recorder handles up to 96K/24 Bit sampling and can also record in FLAC as well as the usual MP3 and Wave formats. The LS-P4 handles Bluetooth so you can stream the audio of the recorder to a set of headphones, speakers and so on. The recorder isn’t perfect but for less than $200 Australian the Olympus is an absolute bargain for those wanting a handy recorder to record.. well.. just about anything. > On 9 Sep 2019, at 4:16 am, Curtis Delzer > wrote: > > what is it you particularly like about the
