Try a telephone hybrid from one of the broadcast supply warehouses. You will
have to go through a mixer and may need to understand mix minus.

Re: recording device for telephone calls

2009-02-18 Thread Bob Seed
That's what I was thinking all along going the telephone hybrid root. That 
could run into a few bucks. There's got to be an easier and less expensive 
way to accomplish the same thing. I am not concerned about mix minus at this 
time, As I will only be recording pre recorded messages from an external 
source. I simply want to get the best quality possible from a telephone 
line. I have worked with hybrid telephone systems, and have a good knowledge 
as to how they work, and know that if they are not set up correctly they 
could really be a pain when it comes to AGC conflicts. I have also done the 
board splitting thing when doing two ways. .

Ok I joined this list after this thread began, but what about using Skype to 
call your messages or whatever, and record directly to the computer using 
one of the programs to record skype phone calls?  Total Recorder comes to 
mind and that's only 17 bucks if you buy it.  If you Google record skype 
calls you can find a few free apps as well.

If you google phone patch there seems to bee all kinds of cheap alternatives 
to a hybread system, as all that I want to do is to put my telephone into my 
sound card for recording purposes. I will let you know what I come up with. 
Phone patches are used quite frequently in ham radio.

Mix minus is a term that is used quite frequently in the broadcast 
industry.

Here is an example of what it is. .
audio, a mix-minus is a particular setup of a mixing console, such that 
the

output to a certain device contains everything except the input from that
device. This prevents echoes or feedback from reverberating or howling and
squealing through the broadcast or sound reinforcement system.
A mix-minus signal is sometimes also known as a 'clean feed' or a 'Select
Audio Return' (SAR).

The most common example of this is when hooking up a telephone hybrid to a
console, at a radio station for example. The person on the telephone hears
everything playing, including the DJ, except that the caller does not hear
his or her own voice. This is also often used for television reporters and
interview subjects speaking to a host from a remote location. Because of 
the
delay that is introduced in most means of transmission (including 
satellite

feeds and digital fiber optic connections), the remote subject's voice has
to be removed from his or her earpiece. Otherwise, the subject would hear
himself or herself with a slight (but very distracting) delay.

Another common example is in the field of sound reinforcement. Consider a
room with sound stations for multiple users, each station containing a
microphone and a loudspeaker. Such a room might be used in a government
house of parliament. The microphone in station #1 would feed the
loudspeakers in every other station except station #1. In other words,
station #1 receives a mix of all microphones minus the station #1
microphone. This enables all participants to hear each other clearly but
minimizes problems with acoustic feedback.

Re: mp3 players best for totally blind people

Hi Lauren,
if you talking about a hardware MP3 player I can suggest the creative
zen stone 2 GB model. It comes without a display, has a little
speaker and plays mp3 and wma files. You can have several folders and
load your music onto the player just as to a normal USB-Stick.
The price, in germany, is around 25,00 Euro.
I've got this one and I'm very satisfied with it!
Best regards
Marco

Re: recording device for telephone calls

2009-02-18 Thread Bob Seed
Mix minus is a term that is used quite frequently in the broadcast industry. 
Here is an example of what it is. .
audio, a mix-minus is a particular setup of a mixing console, such that the 
output to a certain device contains everything except the input from that 
device. This prevents echoes or feedback from reverberating or howling and 
squealing through the broadcast or sound reinforcement system.
A mix-minus signal is sometimes also known as a 'clean feed' or a 'Select 
Audio Return' (SAR).


The most common example of this is when hooking up a telephone hybrid to a 
console, at a radio station for example. The person on the telephone hears 
everything playing, including the DJ, except that the caller does not hear 
his or her own voice. This is also often used for television reporters and 
interview subjects speaking to a host from a remote location. Because of the 
delay that is introduced in most means of transmission (including satellite 
feeds and digital fiber optic connections), the remote subject's voice has 
to be removed from his or her earpiece. Otherwise, the subject would hear 
himself or herself with a slight (but very distracting) delay.


Another common example is in the field of sound reinforcement. Consider a 
room with sound stations for multiple users, each station containing a 
microphone and a loudspeaker. Such a room might be used in a government 
house of parliament. The microphone in station #1 would feed the 
loudspeakers in every other station except station #1. In other words, 
station #1 receives a mix of all microphones minus the station #1 
microphone. This enables all participants to hear each other clearly but 
minimizes problems with acoustic feedback.

Try a telephone hybrid from one of the broadcast supply warehouses. You

 Second, I can't quite figure out what the E shortcut key does.

 Third, I see how to create split points either by pause detection or

 Fourth, the recording feature appears pretty inaccessible.  Has anybody

 The program is quite useful, but I'd like to understand as much of it as I

Re: mp3 players best for totally blind people

2009-02-18 Thread Christopher Chaltain
I think what he means is that it requires a bit of set up to make it 
accessible, so therefore, it isn't going to talk to you as soon as you 
pull it out of the box. You'll need to have iTunes 8 running on your PC 
and then you'll need to attach the iPod nano to your PC and adjust some 
configuration options to get the talking menus installed onto the iPod. 
I hope that helps.

It's just you need to generate the spoken menus. This is done using iTunes 8 
and your Windows/Mac speech settings. Once that's done it's fully 
accessible, with the exception that some of the advanced features, like all 
of the extras menu, will not speak or will partially speak.

I know all about Goldwave, and it does have many advantages.  Actually, when
working with an mp3 file, Mp3 Direct Cut has it beat for splitting and some
simple editing given the fact that it works directly on the mp3 file without
decompressing and re-compressing.  Both programs have their uses.

Re: mp3 players best for totally blind people

2009-02-18 Thread Christopher Chaltain
As others have said the Zen Stone is an off the shelf portable media 
player that, since it doesn't have a display is totally accessible. I 
use this myself, especially for proprietary and protected formats, such 
as Audible, Overdrive and DRM.


Rockbox is a firmware replacement for portable media players that has an 
eyes free mode which makes it accessible. It's a little more work 
getting it up and running, and the newer players aren't supported, but 
once you get it working, you'll have talking menus, talking files and 
folders and potentially access to more storage than you'll get on the 
Zen Stone. You can find out the supported players and get more 
information from rockbox.org. I use this myself on two media players 
including one with a 30G hard drive.


A nice thing about the Zen Stone and Rockbox is that you won't have to 
use any particular software on the PC to copy music over to the player. 
You can just use Windows Explorer since the players will just show up as 
USB attached drives on your system.


The iPod Shuffle is similar to the Zen Stone since because it doesn't 
have a display, it's accessible. The iPod Nano 4th generation is also 
accessible and is similar in how it works to Rockbox. Getting the Nano 
talking is probably easier than installing Rockbox and getting it 
talking, but that's assuming you're going to use iTunes 8 to manage your 
music. I've played with the iPod's and followed developments regarding 
their accessibility, but I don't have one myself.


Finally, I should also say that I do listen to music and books on my 
Nokia N75 cell phone running Talks.

Hi Lauren,
if you talking about a hardware MP3 player I can suggest the creative
zen stone 2 GB model. It comes without a display, has a little
speaker and plays mp3 and wma files. You can have several folders and
load your music onto the player just as to a normal USB-Stick.
The price, in germany, is around 25,00 Euro.
I've got this one and I'm very satisfied with it!
Best regards
Marco

mp3 direct cut

2009-02-18 Thread Donald L. Roberts
Robb, I was hoping that you or someone else would tell me 
how to manually set a split point.  I can use auto cue but 
want to drop split points at points of my own choosing.

Setting Recording Levels in Vista

2009-02-18 Thread Mari Dole
Hello, 

This is the third time I've sent this, and I don't think it's getting
through. It may be my inexperience with Vista. Anyway, I would be very
grateful if any other Vista users could tell me how to set recording levels.
Also, are there any shortcuts to reach the record tab? Thank you very much
for your help.

Re: mp3 players best for totally blind people

2009-02-18 Thread Donna Miller
The Victor stream is great, but since I can't afford one right now, I went and 
bought a cheap one at the family dollar store.

I can read books in mp3 format and listen to music. that's good and when I turn 
it off, it keeps my place when I turn it back on again.

It cost me about $30.00 and as soon as I can, I'm getting a victor Stream.

  The victor reader stream is the most accessible player and I am not being 
smart. If you just want to play music one file after
another any cheap mp3 player will do. but for total access to what you are 
playing the stream is the player of choice. I even excuse the $300 price tag. 
for the access you get that is a bargain.- Original Message -
