CDEX and normalizing
Hi, this is Steve. Has anyone used the feature with CDEX to normalize the volume of tracks? Coming from an analogue background, I shied away from this option when I installed CDEX a couple of years ago. I had even forgot this option even existed. I was going through the CDEX menus a few minutes ago, which is where I was reminded. With analogue, I could usually hear when a normalizing type of approach was being used. How is this with CDEX? I am going to experiment, but would like some feedback. thank you ___ PC-Audio List Help, Guidelines, Archives and more... http://www.pc-audio.org To unsubscribe from this list, send a blank email to: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Hi Betsy Mlb game day audio is sorted by starting times, The default is today's games but you can go back as far as 2004.

I was not getting mad at all; just puzzled that these things come over, as if they are meant for me alone, from their wording; does that make sense? Come on, you're being more sensitive than I was! I was just curious! God, I am really getting confused by this Etiquette thing, which falls somewhere between where congenitals are in their little boxes and where those of us who are recently blind (what's a name for us?) get accused of coming on too strong! Now, Chris, I am not trying to sound angry here, rather, just a little puzzled. Plus, maybe because I don't have as much computer experience as some, I just may come across as lame, to all of you experienced people. Frankly, I think it is time to clear the air on this.

An Audio Decision That Requires Some Thought
When it was first released, I purchased Sound Forge 6 with noise reduction and Jim Snowbarger's scripts. I have since decided that Sound Forge was probably a lot more program than I really needed. I also purchased Studio Recorder which I really like for certain projects that I have worked on over the past couple or three years. As those of you who have used it know, Studio Recorder will never be the only sound editor anyone will ever use; it has some very specialized features that are quite unique to it. On my 800MHz Pentium III computer, I found Sound Forge to be a real resource hog, and Jim's scripts didn't always behave as expected. No disrespect intended, Jim, if you're reading this. My old computer's sound card was a bit ornery anyway. I have recently purchased a Pentium 4 2.66GHz computer and have installed Studio Recorder. Now for my decision, hence my request for feedback from the list. I am looking at three options. 1. Install Sound Forge 6 with noise reduction. 2. Evaluate Sound Forge 8 and pay for the upgrade, approximately $150 if I read it correctly. 3. Download and evaluate Goldwave, and possibly pay $48 for yet another audio program. From the standpoint of accessibility and footprint, which sound editor would the majority of respondents suggest and why? Let's pretend that money is no object, which is certainly not the case. I have just promised myself that I'm not going to install and uninstall a myriad of software on this machine, so I want to plan my moves carefully. Thanks for all thoughtful responses.

re: an audio decision that requires some thought
Jamie, I can't give you a complete answer, because by the time I heard about sound forge, it was way out of my price range, and unless the lottery god smiles on us, it probably always will be. I do, however, use gold wave all the time, and it works extremely well with jaws, thanks to Jim Grimsby's excellent scripts. You can also use it with window-eyes, but you don't get some of the information that is available to jaws users. Gold wave does have some drawbacks. It's noise reduction is very weak, and of course, it does not have multi-track capability. You can, however, mix vocals and music with ease, and the results are, I think, quite nice. I use it for file splitting, merging and conversion, and I also record both from the Internet, and from a cassette recorder. If you work with large files, they will take a long time to process. When I work with my sixteen hour file, I know that my machine will be tied up for most of the day. The help manual is excellent, and, next to Kurzweil, it is my favourite program, bar none. For-the-people has some excellent free tutorials, which you likely won't need, but I thought I would mention them just in case. Hope this helps, Cris Hall -- No virus found in this outgoing message.

Re: An Audio Decision That Requires Some Thought
Depends on how you intend to use your program and what you expect out of it. Having listened to lots of other people's oldtime radio programs, I can say that what strikes me most is the lack of attention to issues of clipping and sound quality of over compression. I've heard countless shows completely ruined and close to unlistenable from these two problems. If either program helps you with these or if you can cope with any program's shortcomings in this area and otherwise like it, use that. It's better to become proficient at using a less than perfect program than to do a hack job with something with all the bells and whistles. Good luck and let me know what you decide to do.

Hi Jamie, Sounds like you have pretty much made your decision. You felt SoundForge was a resource hog, and probably more program than you need. And Studio Recorder is not the only sound editor one will ever need, so, it sounds like you're are left with GoldWave.

Re: An Audio Decision That Requires Some Thought
I played with the beta of studio recorder. I find it gets a sort of weird sound when you time compress slower songs to make them a faster tempo. I wonder how those guys on the daily source code do mash-ups? How they get the words out of a song and mix it in a new one? A good example is the sharp dressed party Adam played on March 10. You don't hear the music of the Party song, rather that of Sharp Dressed Man. I always wondered what they use to unmix tracks. Maybe the same technology could be used to take jaws out of recordings made with what you hear. - Original Message - From: RQJ [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: PC audio discussion list.

On my 800MHz Pentium III computer, I found Sound Forge to be a real resource hog, and Jim's scripts didn't always behave as expected. No disrespect intended, Jim, if you're reading this. My old computer's sound card was a bit ornery anyway. I have recently purchased a Pentium 4 2.66GHz computer and have installed Studio Recorder. Now for my decision, hence my request for feedback from the list. I am looking at three options. 1. Install Sound Forge 6 with noise reduction. 2. Evaluate Sound Forge 8 and pay for the upgrade, approximately $150 if I read it correctly. 3. Download and evaluate Goldwave, and possibly pay $48 for yet another audio program. From the standpoint of accessibility and footprint, which sound editor would the majority of respondents suggest and why? Let's pretend that money is no object, which is certainly not the case. I have just promised myself that I'm not going to install and uninstall a myriad of software on this machine, so I want to plan my moves carefully. Thanks for all thoughtful responses.
