Re: M-audio 2496 and windows 7?

I don't have that card, I have the delta 1010lt and I don't think 
they've updated the software for win7 with that card. I'm rather 
disappointed but don't have the money for a better card.

Re: setting a equalizer on a mixer to use on my home stereo

2011-09-28 Thread Richard Claypool

Hi,

That's hard.  It depends on the mixer, the music, the room, the speakers, 
the pre amp, what's in the room, the phazes of the moon lol.


Seriously, only you know how you like things to sound, and it depends on 
what music you're listening to.


It's like asking, I bought a cd player, what kind of music is the best to 
listen to?

Subject: setting a equalizer on a mixer to use on my home stereo


Hi I have a for channel mixer that I have purchased at my local radio 
shack store.

It has a 7 band equalizer for the left and right channel of the mixer.
I am wondering if someone can give me some good ideas to set the equalizer 
on this mixer for the best sound that I can get from the two CD players 
that I will have connected to it?
These will be just used for playing and not recording anything just for 
playing music that will sound good once I get it set up right.

So any and all help is welcome on this.

Casey

Re: Creating a stereo file from a mono file using gold wave

2011-09-28 Thread Richard Claypool
Or, you can save the file as a mono file.  You can hit I think it's control 
l for left or control r for right, take just that one speaker, copy it to 
the clip board, create a new file, paste that speaker only into the file, 
and save it as a mono file.

There are effects which can add a pseudo-stereo field to mono audio, 
but in the end you'll still have one channel stretched across the 
stereo spectrum, rather than true 2-channel sound.

Re: Creating a stereo file from a mono file using gold wave

2011-09-28 Thread Richard Claypool

Hi,

Actually, a stereo file is the same size as a mono file at the same bit 
rate.  Think aobut it.  A bit rate says how much data is being sent per 
second.  If it's 128kbps, that's how much data is being streamed or read per 
second.


what happens is, if you create a stereo file at 128, it has to squash the 
data into the same size, this basicly halves the quality.


If you really want to hear this in a big way, take a file, save it at a low 
bit rate in stereo, and then save it in mono.


I think with wave yes, the file will be twice the size, but not with mp3, 
ogg, etc.

Okay foks, here's an accessibility enhancement in Airfoil
For Windows I've been waiting for, I've written to the
developers about the issue of selecting the target for
transmission of input source for quite some time.

Up until recently the only way you could select a target was
to take pot luck by tabbing around the screen or moving the
mouse, pressing a button and hoping for the best.

Some Screen reading software such as WE allowed labeling and
customisation of the buttons but this didn't seem to work
all that well but it worked well enough in most cases.

Now output points such as Apple TV'S, Airport Express units,
Iphones, Ipads and other computers running the "Airfoil
Speakers" application are listed in the menu which is
accessed by pressing the "Alt" key, select the device you
want to transmit to, wait a couple of seconds and
transmission of your selected source starts.  Conversely if
you wish to stop transmission, select the device from the
menu and press return, transmission of audio stops.

Under new versions of Airfoil, you can transmit your source
to multiple devices or instances of computers/Iphones/Ipads
running "Airfoil Speakers" on your network.
