SV: Hi-fi soundcard

2009-11-02 Thread Bue Vester-Andersen
Hi,

I think this is exactly  what I am looking for, providing that it can
convert both ways at minimum 96 KHz / 24 bits. I'll definitely go and
explore it tomorrow.

Best regards and thanks a lot
Bue

Yes, if you're looking for pure high quality playback then I'd recommend the
Musical Fidelity V-DAC.  This is a real piece of hi-fi kit produced by a
well respected hi-fi brand rather than a piece of computer kit.  It will
connect via USB and can be bought for approx. £150 from www.superfi.co.uk

Regards.

Kevin

Speaking of high sound quality - I would be in the market for a very good
digital to analog converter simply to use my computer connected to a good
stereo system.

Is there anything better than the xitel for example?

Hi John,

Thanks for the advice. I must admit that I discarded the Sound blaster cards
in advance. I suppose the digital connections will be ok, since a bit is a
bit. However, their d/a-converters don't have a very good reputation with
me. Maybe they have improved, or maybe I am just prejudiced, but I was
originally going for a more high-end solution. Do Sound blaster actually
make high-end cards, or is is it just gaming and surround stuff, like I
thought it was? Are there any good alternatives?

Best regards
Bue

 Hi.

 Can anyone help me?
 I need a high-end hi-fi soundcard with an accessible configuration
 interface and that is compatible with Windows 7. It is going to sit in
 my hi-fi pc, so I don't really need surround sound or 64 channels..
 All i really need is stereo analogue and digital inputs and outputs
 and a card that will do the job and do it really well.

 Best regards
 Bue

SV: Hi-fi soundcard

2009-11-01 Thread Bue Vester-Andersen
I Tim,

Sounds very interesting. I still need to be able to record from  analogue
sources, so I'd better stick to a real sound card. Currently, I am looking
at Audiotrak and Terratec, but I don't know how accessible their software
is.

Best regards
Bue

Hi Bue,

I'm using a little device here called the UD10.1 audio converter from Trends
audio.  It connects to your pc via usb, and has a variety of outputs
including both optical and coaxual s-pdif, XLR, and BNC.  The 3.5mm
headphone socket also doubles as a line output, and provides phono out by
means of a 3.5mm to RCA connector.

I have the ud-10.1 feeding a Beresford DAC, via the coax digital out, which
in turn connects to the amplifier with good quality rca interconnects.

My music files are in lossless flac format, and I am very happy with the
results, with sound quality being as good as, and probably better than my
Arcam Alpha 9 cd player.

I should say that the ud-10.1 is solely an output device, so if you wish to
record, another method would have to be considered.

Best regards,

Tim.

SV: How to use You Tube to find and play stuff?

2009-10-31 Thread Bue Vester-Andersen
Hi Kevin,

Here is how you do it:

1. Use the appropriate command to jump to the search edit field. With JAWS
it would be e.

2. Type in what you are looking for, e.g. free credit report. If it doesn't
work, type in something else. I don't know if special search patterns are
allowed.

3. On the next page each found clip is represented by a nicely tagged
graphic link, so use an appropriate command to jump to the different graphic
links. With JAWS it would be g.

4. Press enter on the link, and there you go.

You can use a program like total Recorder to save the sound of the clip.
There are also programs out there that will save both sound and video, but I
don't know much about them.

Please note, that you need to have Adobe Flash installed.

Best regards
Bue

Emne: How to use You Tube to find and play stuff?

Hi.

I've seen my brother find some real neat things on Youtube.  I'm not having
much luck with this.  How do I get started finding stuff?  I want to drive
everybody crazy and learn the words to the Free Credit Report commercials.
I know the one about buying a car, and I'd like to learn all the others that
are out there.

I know I have way too much time on my hands, but it's a lifelong dream of
mine.

Thanks.
