re: recording sound

2001-11-26 Thread Signe Marie Sanne

  On Mac 8.5.1 I have been able to record my own voice with either
ulaw, ima4 or mace 3:1 chosen in the dialog box and with 22.050
khz (8 or 16 bits). On PC the same choices (all saved as
mysound.mov) record only at half speed. If anyone has managed to
record on PC, please, send me a recipe. Thanks in advance.

44khz works fine here. QT  5 seems to be some kind of screwed with 22khz.

Thanks a lot, I have now got it to work on PC, but on repeated 
recordings it seems to refuse to record (I have just tried out Mac3 
+ 44.100 kHz) on Windows 2000.

Since it now is possible to script the compression (record ... as 
ulaw/ima4/mac3 etc) would it be possible to script the rate? (For 
instance: if the platform = macos then set the rate to 22.050 or if 
the platform = win32 then set the rate to 44.100)

As I have mentioned earlier I would also like to be able to launch 
the small built-in panel Sound - sound recording (if this is the 
name in English, I have just my Norwegian names). When I search for 
it, I just see 3 aliases. The students shall record short sound 
strings which they can listen to and compare them to a model voice. 
This means there is no need to save the sound to disk if they can use 
the panel instead. I have no experience with open process.. or 
queryRegistry so far if that's the way to go. Any suggestions?

Hello to all,

Using MC2.4beta1 build 4 -
I have struggled with Tuvias stack RecordSound from which I have taken:

  record sound lydfil with dialog
   put the seconds into nsecs
   repeat while recording is true
 wait for 0.20 seconds with messages
 set the thumbposition of scrollbar 1 to recordloudness()
   end repeat
   put recorded for the seconds - nsecsseconds

Have you tried the built-in sound recording feature in 2.4 and 
2.4.1?  While  I have yet to try it on the PC, I have used it with 
great success on the Mac.  You should download the latest version of 
2.4.1 while you are at it.

Sorry, just a typo, I'm using the very new version MC2.4.1 build 4 
(from 17th Nov). So back to my questions...

Has anyone got the recording to work on a PC? (I'm on Win2000) With 
what compression? and which khz? Which extension for the recorded 
sound? I have just tried .mov which I saw in a posting, what about 
.aif, .au or .wav? Does each of them correspond to a particular 
compression? Sorry for my ignorance.

I was also wondering about trying to launch the PC built-in sound 
recording panel (which I usually use to record my voice on PC, but 
outside MetaCard), but I do not know how to launch the panel from 
within PC, and I was hoping MC's new recording capability would make 
this unnecessary (as it actually has on Mac). My aim is to let 
students record their own voice, listen to it and compare it to a 
model voice.  Suggestions? Thanks in advance.
