Re: re goldwave

Usually with sound Forge you have to enter a registration license key to 
save files as MP3's. you only get one shot at it, so if you used the 
registration code already in a previous install, you can't use it again. 
That is what happened to me when I tried to install on a different machine 
when the one I was using went caput.

You probably are missing the Lame encoder, just downloaded it and place in
the same folder as the executable for Soundforge.

Hi list, if anyone out there is using goldwave, can you tell me how
easy it is to use for someone with no vision. also, does it having a
user guide. i am not too bad with the things i know, but i am not so
good with new products with a manual. at present for general audio
purposes i am using soundforge 7, but although i have an honestly
bought coppy, when my old computer died suddenly, and i installed
soundforge on my new computer, i couldn't persuade to work with mp3
files. it is quite happy with ogg files. brian.

RE: re goldwave

Hello,

I am also totally blind and have used Gold Wave for years with scripts,
which makes it very nice to know the length with Control-A and many other
key combinations for other things.  But after I installed GW V.6.1  the
scripts I had no longer work an I haven't found new scripts for it; does
anyone know where to get them, if they exist? 

TIA,

Humberto

Greetings,

GoldWave works well for people without or with poor sight, I'm totally blind
and have been using it for must now be about eight years.

If you are using Jaws, there are some good scripts available, at present I
am still using V5.70, the last version to work with windowsXP the next
version is 64-bit and cannot work with XP.

Some people say scripts or setfiles are not required, well, the program can
be used, if carefully set up, out of the box but the scripts (for Jaws) make
it easier.

While i would in no way call myself a power user of goldwave, it has worked
great for me.

Hi darran, audible uses .aa files, but they can be converted to mp3 
with a programme called sound taxi. thanks for your message.





Re: splittin long audible files

2015-04-23 Thread Darran Ross
I don't know the format used by audible, but there's a free option in MP3 
Direct Cut, or paid one's like Goldwave that will do this kind of thing.

The optical output is completely irrelevant to me I only need a line out.

And it seems anyway that you cannot get your screen reader simultaneously
through the system as with the music as I need to do with the loop induction
system.

Don't know why you juust look the veetop wireless box which transmits what
you want and even has an optical output.  Look on one of the Amazon pages
depending on what country you are in.  Right now it is very cheap and works
great.

I will probably be using it as my primary sound card anyway as I have an
induction loop system connected to one of the outputs of my Nad amplifier
which I use to listen to speech because of a hearing loss.

Thanx for the feedback.  This seems to be the way I will go then.

I have two of them.  They work very well.  Essentially, they become the
default sound card for your computer so you'll need to designate your
computer's sound card to be used with your screen reader.  They do cause a
bit of a mess with the wires and keeping the 2 different DACs straight, in
my case.

For the price, I don't think you can go wrong though.
