RE: Windows Media Player 11
This is very strange. I've ripped things in WAV, and it works just fine. It's probably because of how it didn't complete the rip. I've seen this happen with DVD Audio Ex Tractor when you extract a DVD that's a bit damaged and it does kind of extract the chapter I guess. But not really. It sounds like that's kind of what happened here but it's hard to say why since you said that the CD is fine, and it worked when you did it in WMA lausless. But yeah, I prefer PCM WAV my self. -Original Message- From: pc-audio-boun...@pc-audio.org [mailto:pc-audio-boun...@pc-audio.org] On Behalf Of Adrian Spratt Sent: Thursday, January 19, 2012 8:58 PM To: 'PC Audio Discussion List' Subject: Windows Media Player 11 Hi. WMP11 has six format settings for ripping CDs. I chose WAV (Lossless). WMP took a long time to go through the ripping process, and in fact never completed it, although all the tracks from the CD showed up in the designated folder. When I attempted to play these tracks, MS responded with a message to the effect that the player can't play either this CD or this format. However, when I put the same CD in just to play, not rip, WMP went right ahead. I changed the format to Windows Media Audio Lossless, and the player smoothly ripped the files to the folder. When it was done, I could play the tracks from that folder. There is nothing wrong with this CD. If I just play it, WMP operates fine. WMP can also rip and play its contents, albeit with my second choice of format. What it can't do is play files in my preferred format, even though it's one of the six ripping format options offered by the same WMP. Any ideas?

Recording both Speech and Yeti Microphone
Hello everyone, I have a Yeti USB microphone, and it seems to work fine. However, I would like to record both the microphone and what is coming through the soundcard without telling the soundcard to have the microphone as my default playback device. I can record one or the other by setting them as my default recording device, however I would like to record both. Does anyone know if this is possible? Thank you.

HI Ok I gave in, I couldn't get it to extract above 40 kps, I removed it, put in an older version, 10 ultimate, it is working ok. Very strange.

Then you determine the bit rate along with lots of other peramaters.

Re: Recording both Speech and Yeti Microphone
Wondering if an audio mixer might be used in order to perform this task. My speakers are plugged into my Yeti, and the headset is plugged into my speaker out jack. Unplug the headset and you will get feedback from the Yeti while hearing Jaws through your speakers. As I see it once the yeti is plugged in it then becomes your default. The Yeti works great with Gold wave. As good as broadcast quality if that is what you are looking for. We are using the Yeti on an FM station in Canada. There are two Yetis the Ultimate professional which is an all purpose microphone and the snowball which is a little cheaper and is mainly used for speech work. Both microphones are of excellent quality. Go to information radio, and arrow down until you hear thunder bay, and click on listen now. You will definitely hear the difference between the Yeti and a regular headset microphone combo. The Yeti has a good dynamic range while the headset combo sounds thin. . . . - Original Message - From: Samuel Wilkins clevercl...@gwilkins.co.uk To: PC Audio Discussion List pc-audio@pc-audio.org Sent: Friday, January 20, 2012 11:30 AM Subject: Recording both Speech and Yeti Microphone Hello everyone, I have a Yeti USB microphone, and it seems to work fine.
