yes, you need the lamenc.dll in the gold wave folder.

problem with CDex and the CDDB

2008-08-31 Thread Terra Syslo
I am having a problem with CDex trying to retrieve the disc information from
the remote CDDB. It is happening on every disc where it immediately says no
match found. I just started having this problem last night. I've tried
disabling my firewall, and that didn't seem to help. Winamp retrieves the
track information when I listen to the CD, but I don't know how to import
that information into CDex. I really don't want to manually type in all the
track names and album title and everything, when it was working right
before. Does anyone have any suggestions?

My first experiment would probably be to simply reinstall CDex without
uninstalling it.  Perhaps the data base problem will repair itself that way.

It's just a suggestion and, if you haven't already done it, I hope it works.

2008-08-31 Thread Terra Syslo
Hi, thanks. I already tried it with no results. I also uninstalled it and
did a clean install. It says it connects, but it's almost the second I go to
refresh the track list that it gives an error and says no match. I'm not
sure what else to try.

Recording Basics

2008-08-31 Thread Kelly Ford
Hello,

I'd appreciate any advice folks who have more experience doing PC recording
can share on basic setup to produce reasonable recordings of screen reader
audio along with voice recording.  I have some experience in the area but
most of my recording has been making edits to sound files I record with
another audio recorder.

I have a Sound Blaster 2ZS and my biggest frustration is that the microphone
audio volume sounds low.   I'm using the what you hear option to do my
recording at this point.  I have the playback of the microphone enabled in
the sound settings.  I also have the 20DB boost option checked.  If I turn
the microphone volume up to a level that sounds good to me, I get some
electronic hum mixed in that I don't like.  The hum is there even if there
is no microphone connected to the microphone jack of the Sound Blaster.

As an experiment I tried a notebook computer I have and the sound card on
that is just some intel integrated audio card but the sound was much cleaner
out of the box.

I'm using Goldwave for my recording program.

I'd like to get more into this for some projects I'm doing.  I may go down
the road of an external mixer at some point but for now I'd like to see if I
can get the software solutions to work.

I put a sampel of the audio and hum I'm talking about at
http://workshop.kellyford.org/mctest.mp3.

2008-08-31 Thread Judy W

I have done some tutorials and because of radio interviewing I have a good
mixer. I would think the cleanest way to do this would be to buy a $100
mixer. It would give you more flexibility.

As for the humb, make sure you have good shielded cables. 

I'm sure there are more opinions from other goldWave users.

Regards,

Judy

There are good inexpensive mixers from sound professionals and the staff is
usually knowledgeable. One brand is Rols.

You can also check out your radio shack--the last time a friend of mine
looked there were around three under $110 

Hope this helps,

Judy
