Re: Audacity 2.2.0 has been released

[Donald L. Roberts]

I have a related question. I note that there is a full install version and a 
portable version of Audacity. I have noted that many programs have both a 
full install and a portable version. So I conclude that there must be some 
advantage of the full install over the portable version of a program.  If 
this is correct, just what is the advantage specifically in the case of 
Audacity?

For a summary of new features see:
http://manual.audacityteam.org/man/new_features_in_this_release.html

One of the new features is that clips are now accessible for users of
screen readers.

For Windows users, these are the direct links for Audacity 2.2.0:
1. The Installer version:
https://www.fosshub.com/Audacity.html/audacity-win-2.2.0.exe
2. The portable version:
https://www.fosshub.com/Audacity.html/audacity-win-2.2.0.zip

I've updated by Jaws guide to Audacity for version 2.2.0, and it's
available here:
http://vip.chowo.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/jaws/Audacity-2.2.0-Guide.html

As previously, nearly all of this guide is also applicable to users of 
NVDA

and Window-Eyes.

Unfortunately, there is not a version of Audacity 2.2.0 which is usefully
accessible with VoiceOver on Macs. The most recent accessible version on
Macs is still the screen reader version of Audacity 2.1.1:

each of those groups and found nothing remotely close to what you

I'm not sure that this is the exact plug in, but there are 16 loaded at
startup on this instalation so you may need trial and error.

Re: Pure Audio Discs

Although I find this interesting, I have a bit of a problem.  I have a 
blue ray player which works very well, unless one turns off the TV to 
which it is connected via HDMI.  I have a digital audio connector on the 
player.  But regardless of whether I am playing DVDs or audio CDs, as 
soon as the TV is turned off, there is no longer any signal to the audio 
system.  I just do not like the requirement that the television be on

wants to watch television.

The whole Voice recognition game has gone ahead ahead in leaps and bounds,

have my Samsung Galaxy S6 with “OK Google” and “Google Now” installed and the 
things that combination can do - if you’re prepared to spend the time to speak 
your mind as the saying goes - is astonishing.
For example I can tell the phone to “Play Radio 1070 KNX with Tunein” to which 
Google responds, “Playing KNX 1070 News Radio” and that you then hear.
To stop playing all I have to do is to wake up google , “Ok Google” and say, 
“Stop Play”, to which Google Responds, “Sure!”.
I have Google do a whole heap of other things besides, I just mentioned this example 
as its one I’ve only refined the voice commands for over the last few days, practise

Yes, it's the smaller unit by far but has all the features of it's bigger

it doesn't have a built-in speaker but it does. The sound quality is much like 
an old-fashioned transistor radio but I have listened to music from a random 
playlist in the background from amazon Prime and it is okay for casual radio 
listening. I can also tell it to connect via Bluetooth to my iPhone and play my 
book from the Voice Dream app via the Dot. It certainly sounds fine and can 
play at a reasonable volume for the equivalent of a transistor radio.

If I should be fortunate to get the bigger Echo for Xmas I'll keep it in the 
living room and move the Dot to the bedroom. That way I can use it to control 
the heating and lighting from either place by voice and it will serve as an 
alarm clock as well. Incidentally, it also tells Jokes and Interesting Facts on 
demand. In fact it is quite a good dictionary and calculator too.

Re: Panasonic RF2200 Vintage World Band Radio

I sampled this from my new Panasonic RF2200 Vintage World Band radio and by new 
I mean that I’ve just acquired one, the radio itself is around 40 years old but 
now its been fully aligned and you can hear the results for yourself.
Unfortunately weather conditions around the country - as you’ll hear - are a 
little unstable right now, lots of lightning etc so I think the RF2200 did a 
fantastic job at reception overall.
What makes the RF2200 unique is the rotating ferrite AM antenna on the top so 
you can nut out other stations in the background to an extent.
The RF2200 has very finely tuned circuits which make the radio hotter than a fire 
cracker when it comes to AM reception, very reasonable on short wave and okay on FM 
though not as good as many of today’s modern-Day FM radio sets though that’s to be 
expected given most now use DSP technology which certainly wasn’t around 40 years ago 
.
The sample was made using the microphones of the Olympus DM4 and you may notice 
a little echo since the Olympus recorder was some distance away from the radio 
to avoid any additional interference being added to the sample.

This is an audio recording program which was very bare bones and would

increase or decrease the volume at a fixed rate.  It was extremely well

Re: Goldwave question

[Donald L. Roberts]

I too have a Goldwave question.  However, this question pertains to 
closing the Goldwave program.  We are all aware of the windows bug which 
precludes shutting down the program correctly.  Is there no other way to 
get rid of the program other than rebooting?  If so, how does one do this?


Thanks.

Goldwave questions

[Donald L. Roberts]

I recently put Goldwave 6 on my 8.1 64-bit desktop.  Are there significant 
differences between the latest version and the last version 5 of Goldwave?  
Also, can anyone tell me whether it is possible using batch mode to trim 
silence from a bunch of .wav files?

Thanks.

There's no doubt about it, the PL-880 is the best sounding portable 
for its size.


I found the PL-660 and the PL-880 very good on FM and SW.

The PL-880 is better on AM but the PL-660 would be good if it didn't 
have so much noise on the AM band.


All-in-all, the PL-880 is a damn good buy and should provide for most 
radio listener requirements.

should save it for later reference, as it contains important
information about this group, such as your password, how to change
your preferences, and a few basic rules of conduct we expect all
members to observe.

Attention!  Do NOT send a test message to the list or you will not be
subscribed very long!

Guidelines.

PC-audio is a list for the discussion of any PC audio related topic
such as PC audio software like sound editors, audio players and audio
formats; and hardware like sound cards, CD and DVD devices and so on.

While the subject matter is wide ranging, this is not a forum for the
discussion of non-pc-audio matters. There are many other lists for
political or other discussions.

There are also some PC audio related topics which are specifically
excluded from the allowable topics.  The explicitly prohibited topics
include:

* requests for songs or other audio files * promotion of audio streams
except for occasional announcements of special events * advertising
audio products and service Willfully posting an off-topic message is
strictly prohibited. While it may be considered that one or two
messages that are off topic can't hurt, if everyone on a large list
like this took that approach, we would quickly descend into chaos.
Asking for replies to be sent privately makes no difference.

Some examples of off-topic messages include:

* Virus alerts * Jokes and humor * Advertising items for sale * Test
messages * Non-audio software and hardware

Vulgar language, name calling and other types of flames are strictly
prohibited.

Sometimes a message thread starts with a clearly defined purpose, but
as the discussion develops the subject matter can change. If this
happens, you should take the initiative and change the subject line to
better reflect the subject matter of the thread.

Some people pay by time or volume when they use the Internet. For this
reason, please take care when quoting messages that you're replying
to.

Ideally, keep just enough of the previous message to remind
subscribers about the message to which you're replying, and no more.
Otherwise, one quickly finds a few lines of new text at the beginning
of a message followed by screen after screen of old messages.

If you believe that any of these rules are not being followed, do not
raise this as an issue on the list. Write to the group owner at
pc-audio-ow...@pc-audio.org and express your concern. If you raise
these matters on the group itself, it will generate considerable
off-topic traffic and bad feeling. There is only one moderator. Please
do not post messages asking that a thread stop or accusing someone on
the list of being off topic.

The moderator of the list has the right to remove or restrict anyone
from being able to post to the group as a result of not adhering to
the stated rules.

If you disagree with any of these rules, please unsubscribe now by
sending a message to pc-audio-unsubscr...@pc-audio.org If you do not
unsubscribe, this is taken as an acceptance by you that you will abide
by the rules as outlined.

Re: Any DVD or Make MKV

That has not been my experience with AnyDVD 7.5.8.0.  When you look for 
AnyDVD in the system tray and open it up, there are two options of 
interest.  One is to copy to hard drive, and the other is to create an 
Iso image.  I do not have to use Clone DVD at all.

Any DVD only allows you to overcome the DRM on DVDs and BlueRay disks.

You would then play the DVD or BlueRay using Media Player Home Cinema or
VLC.

If you want to copy a DVD or BlueRay, you would use the companion program of
Any DVD which is called Clone DVD and it, too, is quite accessible (even if
the interface takes a little experimenting to get used to it).  It will, for
example, allow you to pick and choose between the titles on a disk so you
get only the English version rather than the German version.

The programs do cost a small amount of money but they are updated on a
regular basis and I think they are well worth it.

Go to www.slysoft.com for more information.

Why is it called Slysoft?  It is not quite what you might think, they are
located in Slygo in Ireland.

Re: SiriusXM online

I just wanted to comment that this site works reasonably well also with 
Window-eyes 9.1 and Internet Explorer 11.  One thing which I found 
amusing is that there must be a huge buffer somewhere because initially 
the song which played was the song indicated.  However, somehow my 
screen display was always one and sometimes two songs ahead of the 
recording which I heard through my sound card.


I do wish there were a way to go directly to the desired channel rather 
than having to go through the categories to find what you want.  I 
especially hope that something can be figured out before the start of

Re: BOSE radios

I have the Bose sound wave system purchased a number of years ago. I am 
sure some folks will take offense at what I am about to say, and it is 
not my intent to offend anyone.


My problem with any of the Bose radios which I have seen is that there 
is no such thing as controls for equalization.  It has also been my 
experience that folks who rave the loudest about Bose just wants 
something which goes boom, boom, boom.  Few highs, mostly midrange and 
some lows.

There is mid-range though and I think it would sound great for the average

is critical and there is no automated room correction built in.

This does not happen on my XP home system nor on my windows 7 home premium

I use my Pen Friend for marking my CDS. No braille is shallow enough to play

Vicki, Are you familiar with the CD stomper?  It is a device which comes 
with square CD labels which are perforated in such a way that you can put 
them in a Perkins or a slate to write the braille and then remove the 
corners via the perforations leaving a circular label which is exactly the 
size of a CD.  You then place the CD on a circular platform after first 
placing the adhesive side of the label face up.  You then just press the top 
side of the CD against the adhesive, and you have a thin but very legible 
braille label on your CD.  I used this thing for years and have never had 
the adhesive cause an issue.  I do agree with your note that adhesives at 
least some of them will cause problems.
If you want more info about the CD stomper, just let me know.

The answer of course is Windows Media Player which - when I last tried it - was

2 Winamp settings questions

I'm running Winamp 5.66 on an 8.1 desktop.  I cannot locate two settings 
which I very much want to change.


First, whenever I play an Audio CD, Winamp wants to look up the CD on a

commence a database search.  How do I squelch it?


Second, I need to change one of the plug ins so that the up and down

which one do I use?

Real tech sound cards

The only sound cards I have ever used in windows based PCs are 
integrated sound cards, and I believe that Real tech is the only brand I

It may be necessary for me to purchase a new windows desktop PC running

the quality of integrated sound cards, Real Tech in particular, was 
deteriorating.  So I am posting this to inquire about what to look for 
and what to avoid in an integrated sound card.


I am not about to spend the kind of money that some on this list have 
spent for hi end cards, so I would hope that this discussion will be 
limited to integrated sound cards.  In the past, what I have done is to 
use the integrated card for the music and the USB sound card for the 
screen reader.  I am aware of course that this is the reverse of how 
hi-end card owners configure their PC.


Thanks in advance for any pointers.

Tools for playlist creation

[Donald L. Roberts]

Please tell me about the easiest way to create audio playlists.  I know 
that I can do it in Winamp, but I don't remember how to do it.  I think 
also it can be done using Total Recorder but don't know how.  Are there

Total recorder, accelerated recording

[Donald L. Roberts]

Earlier versions of Total Recorder contained a feature called 
accelerated recording.  This allowed the user to play a recording on a 
media player such as Winamp at a surprisingly fast speed, contingent on 
the PC's processor speed, and re-record that file using Total Recorder.


Is that feature still available, and how does one use it?  I doubt that 
I can use it on a Windows 7 system but think I can use it on an old XP 
system if the feature is still available in the current incarnation of 
Total Recorder.


Some may be asking why not just use something like Switch to convert the 
file.  The answer is that the files in question are DRM protected.


Thanks in advance for any help.

Toslink connector question

[Donald L. Roberts]

This question pertains to the toslink connector on my Apple TV box.  Is 
the signal which comes from the Apple TV's toslink connector a digital 
signal or an analog signal?  If digital, then I need to convert it to 
analog as my receiver is quite old and has no digital inputs, only RCA 
analog inputs.  I do realize that I could listen to the television set's 
audio, but I do not choose to do so as my TV has the dubious distinction 
of producing the tinniest audio I have ever heard.  Thanks.


Don Roberts

Re: Toslink connector question

[Donald L. Roberts]

The toslink connector is the small rather square indentation immediately 
to the left of the HDMI connector if the box is oriented so that the 
connectors are facing you.  I realize that that is the back of the box, 
but when messing with the connections, I turn the box so that the 
connectors are facing me.

There are a number of ways to get analog output from your Apple TV.  If your TV 
is connected using the HDMI cable,
it is also decoding the audio.  Even though the TV's sound is not good, it may 
have audio outputs that could go to
your stereo receiver.

There are also converters that will convert a digital optical output signal to 
an analog signal.  Using one of
these will also work.

There are also converters that will convert an HDMI output to analog video and 
audio.  This would degrade your
picture, though, but the audio is pretty good.  I am using one of these since 
my TV and receiver are old.

Digital audio questions

On a similar note, what type of digital audio do my mini disc players

Burnaware free question

[Donald L. Roberts]

I am using an older version of Burnaware Free as the latest is 
completely inaccessible.


When one has loaded all the files into Burnaware and is ready to burn, 
when tabbing through the various combo boxes, there is a check box which 
gives no indication of its purpose.  The screen reader merely says 
checked or unchecked, contingent on its status.  So just what is this 
check box for?  I have not done much testing, but I find no change 
whatsoever.

Re: Digital audio question

[Donald L. Roberts]

Thanks to both Gary and to Dane for answering my question.  I apparently 
did not verbalize correctly.  What I am trying to find out is what 
digital format I need to use for the inputs.  In other words, instead of 
connecting the input device to the mini disc via analog connection, I 
want to use the digital input mode so that the beginning and end of 
track markers will be put in automatically.  When transferring pop stuff 
to mini disc, the markers work reasonably well.  But when attempting to 
transfer classical music, because of the quiet passages, sometimes extra 
start markers are inserted.


Again, thanks for responding.

XM Roady 2 questions

learned how to decrease the volume and restore factory defaults.  But I 
am still attempting to find the keystrokes for changing the FM transmit

Dictation products for Windows 7 PCS

[Donald L. Roberts]

I am running Window-eyes 8.4 on a Windows 7 64-bit desktop.  Thus far, 
I have not ventured into the area of message dictation except on my 
iPhone.  But now I would like to get something to use on this windows 
PC.

Can anyone on list provide opinions preferably from first hand 
knowledge regarding the latest version of Dragon Dictate and or the 
dictation facility built into Windows 7.  When referring to Dragon, I 
am referring to the lower priced of the two Dragon options, not the 
one which allows one to dictate PC commands.  Earlier versions of 
Dragon required the person doing the dictation to train the program to 
get used to the sound and inflection of your voice.  Is this still the 
case?

Additionally, I know that Jaws users could purchase the very expensive 
J say scripts for Dragon, but I doubt there is anything comparable for 
Window-eyes.  I would like responses from Jaws users also.  Remember, 
this is for text dictation only, not for issuing PC commands.  Thanks 
in advance.

Re: Is the NCH audio software accessible?

Peter, For me, the easiest way to add files in Burnaware is to use cut

Additionally, one can burn Iso files as well as bin-cue files if he wishes.

Re: Christmas Presents

[Donald L. Roberts]

I got it, Dane, and love it, except for one relatively minor irritant. 
Specifically, I dislike the mechanism which mutes the audio for half a 
second while tuning.  I can live with it but wish I could disable it.


One other thing I wanted to mention is that because it runs on 4 D 
cells, it appears that one should use brand new D cells since cells 
which aren't fully charged don't power the unit nearly as well as 
partially used D cells in my super radio 3.  Of course, the super radio 
3 uses analog tuning which is also a factor.


Also, if anyone is interested, C. Crane has an audio tutorial produced 
by Tim Hendel who does a great job of describing all features and 
functions of this radio.  It was actually done for the CC2 but which is 
still applicable for the enhanced radio.  If anyone wants it, I will put 
it up on Dropbox for download.

I know someone who ordered one of these radio sets quite some time ago, he has

Hi!

I hope to have one of these radio sets early next year and I'm very much looking

So to a feature which I didn't know about, you can align the CC II/E which 
means the radio can adjust itself to the signal conditions its under to both 
minimise interference and to optimise signal reception for any part of the AM 
Broadcast band.

Turning the radio to the AM Broadcast band and then holding the clock/frequency 
display toggle button down for 5 seconds causes the radio to beep, when the 
radio beeps you release the button.

The radio starts scanning down the dial step by step until it reaches the lower 
limit of the AM band.

Whilst the radio is stepping you'll hear the radio adjusting its RF gain etc 
for each step it moves to.

Note that alignment for each station you set in each preset is stored alongside 
that station so if you do a factory reset of the radio, not only are the 
presets erased but all the alignment information is wiped too.

turntables

I do have a preamp which has the appropriate equalization settings for a

will be USB.


So I would appreciate ideas.

Although I certainly enjoy reading Dane's reviews of various radios, I

Granted, they need external amplification and speakers unless you are

iPhone either via blue tooth or via the 3.5 mm. jack to other components.


All of the internet radios I hear about have accessibility issues, some

I am using version 5.68 of Goldwave with Window-eyes 8.2 on a windows 7

If a screen reader is active when starting GoldWave, the program

its interface slightly to be more screen reader friendly. Screen reader

be switched on manually by using
GoldWave Setup in the Windows Start menu and checking the

The status visual in the

The levels are given in percentages, but tabbing to the text box and

Goldwave V U meter

[Donald L. Roberts]

As I got no answer from Saturday's original post, I am reposting in 
hopes of some resolution to this problem. I no there are Goldwave users 
on this list, and surely some of them have at least attempted to read 
the V U meter.  I could do this in earlier versions of Goldwave but 
cannot seem to do so in more recent versions.


Regardless of which screen reader you use, is anyone on this list able
to read reliably the Goldwave V U meter. I am using version 5.67 but
cannot figure out how to read the meter with either Window-eyes or with
Jaws. I am not using scripts for either screen reader for Goldwave. So
if you are able to read the V U meter, please tell me which screen
reader you use, whether you are using some sort of script, and the
specific key presses to read the V U meter.

One more question if I may. In the tools menue, what difference does it
make whether one checks the control key option?

Thanks.

Winamp 5.67 question

I may be wrong on the version number, but the version I am using is 
quite recent although the answer to my question is  not version specific.


Since the majority of my CDs are home brew compilations, I have no 
desire for Winamp to attempt to locate the track info each time a CD is 
inserted into the player.  I have looked through Winamp preferences and 
also options and thus far have found no way to change the default 
behavior.  If someone can point me in the right direction, I would be 
most grateful.

Re: Accessibility of Adobe Audition

[Donald L. Roberts]

I do not claim to be knowledgeable regarding noise reduction.  However, 
most of the time I have dealt with old recordings which have been 
subjected to noise reduction software, there are almost no highs 
whatsoever.  I am thinking of a lot of big band and vocal recordings 
made on 78s during the 30s and 40s, and yes I know that the modulating 
frequencies were seldom more than 5000 cycles.  But I have heard a 
number of those recordings on the original vinyl and later heard those 
same recordings after going through noise reduction procedures, and the 
resulting sound is so bland that I would much prefer the originals, 
complete with hiss and a few pops.


As stated earlier, I haven't played with this stuff much, so I am not 
bashing.  I am just suggesting that good sound is an extremely 
subjective thing.

auto noise capture in sound forge is great, and
then the trick is to get it to lower the defaults
to more than one of the saved configurations to more than 12.5 DB.
You can totally get rid of cassette noise, for
example, at about -40 DB or so, any more than
that and it starts to make the typical NR swishy
sounds which are not desirable.

Hi Sam,

My view might be a little subjective but from what I've tried out in the
past when I got myself Adobe Audition just to take a look at it got
totally
worse than e.g. 2.1 version of Adobe Audition when you know they changed
their label from Cool Edit which was the predecessor of that one. I
wasn't
confortable with that as many objects were placed without any
shortcut keys
on the screen beyond the menu so OK it was possible to grab them
using the
virtual mouse and crowling around but it was a real pain. It has the
standard menu from what I remember and maybe they improved some
particular
things of that I can't tell but generally the older version were
incredible
having most of things in menu reachable via the keyboard unlike the
latest
versions. But maybe somebody knowing more of that will chime in. I
say the
most blind-friendly one is Sound Forge:).

For the record I don't think it'll be better with Window Eyes as the
universal way of the layout and localizing the object is identical to
all
screen readers regardless of whether it's NVDA Jaws or Window Eyes etc.

Setting presets on the CCSW radio

It sticks in my mind that Dane Trethowan did a podcast on this thing,

presets, and I also don't know where to find that podcast.


I also suggested to my acquaintance that she contact C Crane who often 
have recorded cassette instructions for their products. At any rate, if 
you know how to set these things, please write me with step by step 
instructions at

Alternatively, if someone has Dane's email address, I would appreciate

This always happened to me when I used older versions of Goldwave.  The

name then tab down to the attributes.  Specify 16 bit mono and tab to

Washington, D.c. which seems to tbe working fine.  I have had a problem
with one station timing out (this would be WSM) but MR. Oldaker was kind
enough to send me a direct link which works for that and helped me get
around that problem too!

Very special thanks to Vitek for the info he provided regarding putting
iHeart  stations into Tapin radio.  I am embarrassed to say that I read
his message first thing this morning, and its content did not sink in
until I read Sunshine's subsequent message.  Therefore, thanks much to
both parties.  Below is the info which was especially helpful.
   
  you can tune into all stations from Iheartradio.com
using Tapin-radio product by simply typing the call letters or their
moniker
in the search field in the main window available there using e ¨shortcut
key just like browser's edit fields. By shift+tab you land on the search
results and hitting enter will play the station or arrowing up/down you can
choose the station if there are more of them.
We store all almost 800 stations from that website using special stream
URLs
because they can't be sniffed on the website for them using rmtp protocol.
