Re: Question Reducing the Speed of a file using Gold wave
Greetings, In the effects menu, go to time warp, be careful though, try a small sample of the file until you have it sounding ok, remember (or save) settings this will sort it. I've opened GW mine is v5.58, I've created a file, put some recording in it, now do alt-c for effects and w for time warp. Now, you will see a list of presets, I suggest go down to 200% similarity, in my experience, this is the best of the algorythms available. Tab now to change percent button, quite a few tabs to go. Tab again to the edit box which will show 200.000, this would double the speed, so you want to slow it, change the 200 to, say 95. Tab to window size which shows 60, change this to 20. Tab to search range which shows 10.00, change this to 5.00. Tab either to preview or ok, see if this is ok, if so, apply to whole of file, if not, adjust values, remembering the window size and search range will affect how true the sound is, very much a case of trying it out. Don't, whatever you do, apply time warp to music and expect good results; this should be avoided until you are thoroughly familiar with settings and how to use them. >From Colin Howard, who lives in Fareham on the coast of Central Southern England.

Greetings, Install the scripts (in my case) in: c:\documents and settings\colin\application data\freedom scientific\jaws 10\settings\enu (substitute whatever yours is for colin) then compile the GoldWave.jss file, job completed. >From Colin Howard, who lives in Fareham on the coast of Central Southern England.

Re: BBC iPlayer
Greetings, The IPlayer has been replaced by something called the RadioPlayer, which supposedly incorporates bbc, community, commercial and probably other stations too. the idea is to try and standardize the interface. Have a look at: http://www.radio-player.co.uk The IPlayer still works and will remain but accessibility to time line, pause, restart seem to have been lost. There are contacts being made in the UK for these matters to be addressed. The radio-player is, in my view, not so easy to use as is being trumpetted over here. >From Colin Howard, who lives in Fareham on the coast of Central Southern England.

Re: BBC iPlayer
Hi, The other development, is to integrate the player into twitter and facebook and I think bebo. So that friends can see what you are listening to. I've always told them, but there you go, the beeb has to screw it up.

How to inport to Goldwave?
Do any of you know how I can take one of my songs from my iTunes library and load it into Goldwave? It is a live recording and I want to fade out and crop the applause. If it would be any easier, I do have it on a CD, but I don't know how to import the song on to my computer except through iTunes. Many thanks for any help!

Re: How to inport to Goldwave?
Vicki, look in the tools menu in goldwave and there should be something called CD-reader which will allow you to rip the tracks onto your computer. Once you activate it, it should be self explanatory. - Original Message - From: "Victoria Vaughan" To: "PC audio discussion list.

Re: How to inport to Goldwave?
Greetings, What format is the song, .mp3 or .wav or windows media or some form of which I know not? If .mp3 or .wav, can you see it in the ITunes system, sorry I don't know much about ITunes, I assume there must be folders in which case, you must be able to access these from GW in the usual way. If you cannot access the song via the folders, to get it off the cd, very simple. Put cd onto pc and go into tools and down to cd reader and enter, the rest should be self-explanatory, just make sure you know the track required and rip it onto your hard disk, then work on it as with any other GW file, saving it as desired. To use fadeout, place start marker at the place where you wish the fade to begin, the finish marker must be at the end of the file, or if you wish to lose the very end, delete as with any other part of the file. Now go into effects, then u for volume, o for fade out, then I assume you want to fade to nothing, so cursor down the presets to the one which says something like fade to silence linear, you should then get a nice, gentle fade, if you use the fade to silence logrythmic the fade is much more sudden and sharp, it is not gentle, it starts slowly and fades faster and faster. Hope these few comments are of use. >From Colin Howard, who lives in Fareham on the coast of Central Southern England.

Re: How to inport to Goldwave?
If you were to import from your ITunes library, here's what you would do. disclaimer: I'm using Windows XP. 1. Go into the my documents folder. 2. Go into the my music folder. 3. Go into the iTunes folder. 4. Go into the iTunes media folder. 5. Go into the music folder. 6. From here, you would have to locate the folder containing the audio you'd like to edit. You should be able to open the files in Goldwave. You might be better off, ripping the audio from the CD. 1. Press alt-T for the tools menu. 2. Press enter on CD Reader. 3. If you have more than one CD drive on your machine, select the drive where the CD is. 4. Press the tab key six times. This will put you in the list of tracks on the CD. 5. Now you need to tell Goldwave which tracks you want to copy to the computer. Tip: Files that are checked will be copied. 6. If you want to rename the tracks, here's an opportunity to do that. Tab to the rename button and press the space bar and type the desired name. Repeat this step for each track. 7. Tab to the save button and press the space bar. 8. Here you tell Goldwave where to save the files and what format you want them saved in, [Wave, MP3, etc.]. 9. Press the space bar on the OK button. - Original Message - From: "Colin Howard" To: "PC Audio Discussion List" Sent: Saturday, April 02, 2011 6:16 PM Subject: Re: How to inport to Goldwave?

Re: How to inport to Goldwave?
Yeah okay but there's an option in Winamp that is supposed to do all that at the click of a mouse and this is what I'm wondering about.

Windows Media Player and M4A files under Windows xp
Hi! I have no trouble playing M4A files with Windows Media Player under Windows 7 but can't do the same with Windows Media Player under Windows Xp, does anyone know of a plug-in or anything I can get to change this? Not asking for myself really as I don't much care for audio under Windows Media Player, asking for a friend and as I said, Windows Media Player with Windows 7 works just fine!
