Hi Larry
The previous Jtunes was a payable upgrade - I'm not sure but I think it's
about £30. It works fairly well and certainly makes Itunes workable. It has
one or two restrictions but in general is good. The new version sounds just
what we need and so as you can see I'm keen to get it.
Regards.

Hi Gordon. Larry here. Steve posted the original jTunes update message, 
forwarded from another list. So far as I know, it's still in the coming soon 
category.
this post concerning the updated version of the program is actually the 
first that I've heard of it. Do you own the previous version? can you tell 
me anything about cost and such?

To date, as far as I know, this application represents the only means by 
which a blind person can successfully navigate iTunes.

For whatever my info might be worth, I asked the Window-Eyes folks if their 
soon to be released version 7.0 would offer similar iTunes support, but a 
representative indicated preference to withhold comment until the release of 
Window-Eyes 7.0. Certainly their privellege, but it leaves me uncertain as 
to whether to purchase jTunes straight away.

At any rate, since I am presently reviewing screen reader options for 
reasons that do not apply to this list, I am very interested in jTunes. I 
have jaws 8 on board and jTunes claims to work with Jaws 6 through 9. If I 
happen to see news of an official release before it is posted by another 
member, I'll certainly pass along what I learn.

Hi. Napster is a service that allows users to purchase individual songs and 
full albums. Membership at a higher level allows you to download tracks and 
in some cases albums which you may keep on your harddrive as long as you 
continue to pay the monthly fee.

I hope this helps.

Samuel, I gather that you are using Window-Eyes. The custom control took me 
to the Napster home page. The first picture link also brought me to their 
home page. The second picture link took me to searches that I had not yet 
cleared. To work successfully in Napster with Window-Eyes, you're going to 
nee to use your mouse keys quite a lot.

Doc, I think I'm missing something. Not for the first time, but I'd like to 
get this figured out if I can. When I open Napster, using Jaws, if I tab 
once, I get the combo box with artist, title and so on. If I tab again I'm 
taken to the Napster home page where they push featured downloads and 
recommend artists. I'm not seeing any buttons. When tabbing with Window-eyes 
I get the artist/title box, and then with the next tab I hear "list box." It 
is, at this point, an undefined list box. Any idea what I'm doing wrong? I

Hi Samuel. Others may have a better way, but for what it's worth, I just 
move on to the next track that I want to download and let Napster continue 
to do its thing. If you exit while downloading a track, the program warns 
you that you are about to interupt a download. Now then, if you can indeed 
find the library using your alternate cursor, I haven't been able to figure 
out how, but maybe someone here can help us out.

Re: Websites for MP3

Hello Samuel. Napsteroffers membership to residents of several countries 
outside the U.S. including Britain Japan and Canada. One membership level 
lets you download
files that you keep as  long as you maintain your paid membership. On
another level you just by tracks and albums as you would at Amazon and the
like with no membership fee.In the States and here in Canada, a free trial 
is offered.

I understand your frustration. Here in Canada, Amazon.com, Rapsidy and other
companies based in the states block us from purchasing downloads at their
websites. Those of us who live outside the U.S. are also blocked from 
listening to Clear
Channels radio streams.The page that comes up when you attempt to stream a 
Clear Channel radio station says that non-U.S. surfers are blocked due to 
licensing restrictions. In my experience, I have never found a broadcast 
stream for any station owned by a company other than clear channel that 
blocks non-U.S. surfers, though others may exist that I have simply not yet 
discovered.

Hi John. I enjoy working with DC7 and I think you will too. If you find you 
need a hand at any time, give me a shout and I'll do what I can.

As for GoldWave, I like it for the ease with wich I can split files 
manually, which is my preference. I listen to each individual file from a 
given album at several times normal speed and place a cue point at its end. 
Then I do the same with each subsequent file until finished. Finally I have 
GoldWave split the files. Then I move to Dc7 for more concentrated editing. 
Just my preference. Everybody has their favorite way.

Hi Gordon. When you have a file of a record with lots of pops, clicks and 
overall surface noise, try the impulse filters first. They make a great 
first step and they work especially well when you are dealing with the 
entire file as you and I are.

I like your workarounds and your suggested changes. Perhaps if both of us 
present them, the ideas might carry more weight. Worth a try anyway.

Have you tried the cassette hiss filters. The impulse filters are also 
excellent for getting rid of pops and clicks.

I've heard a lot about audition 1.5 and I'd love to work with it, but I 
haven't been able to get my hands on a copy. Maybe one day.

Jim, Goldwave is a great program and what you have described is exactly what 
I want to do. I want to create a sample from a file, isolate it, work with 
it and move on. In the program that Dane describes for the Mac, one can 
accomplish this with a simple keyboard command. Maybe it's me, but so far I 
can't make that happen in Goldwave. Can you please tell me how to go about 
it?

Thanks and much appreciation in advance.

Re: Other Audio Editors And Jaws Scripts

2008-03-09 Thread Larry N
Hi Curtis. Sure, I can help you out.  DC7 is an audio editor. It is 
dedicated to restoring digitizing and burning CDs of materialed that 
originated on vinyl, cassette, 78s of all descriptions and open reel tape. 
Its tape hiss removal is excellent and I think it has a lot of other 
fantastic features, default settings which can be employed to make dramatic 
differences when applied to a file. Again, the down side is that neither 
Gordon nor I have been able to isolate a specific file segment. That being 
said, their support team will generally get back to you within 24 hours. As 
Gordon and I have mentioned, not a lot of blind people have worked with them 
on concerns that they have with the program. However, they are willing to 
work with us and happy to discuss issues and concerns. I think that if more 
of us discussed our concerns with them, they would be willing to make 
changes.

You can download a fully functional demo which will remain completely active 
for 10 days with no restrictions at the following address.

Hope this gets you started.

I agree, and maybe between the two of us and anyone else who might be 
interested, we could get them to make some changes, perhaps even for an in 
between upgrade that is released mainly to correct some other issue that 
pops up. Like you, I work with the program when I can make changes over an 
entire file. Meanwhile, if while using DC6 for entire files I can zero in on 
small sections of a file using either GoldWave, WavePad or Sound Forge, I'm 
really interested in learning how. I don't think there's any windows 
software that allows you to key in to a small part of a file the way Dane 
does with the Mac program that he talks about, but I'd like to get closer to 
that than I am now.

In the meantime, I very much like the changes that I can make happen with an 
entire file when using DC7. I do see the capability to push the program 
further than I could DC6 and I already liked DC6 a lot. Nice to see that 
someone else thinks so too.

John, one thing you're dealing with when it comes to DC7 support staff is 
that they don't know a lot about screen reader specific issues. Part of the 
problem there is that they just haven't had a lot of blind users offering 
them feedback. On the plus side, I've found them to be very proactive when 
it comes to their willingness to support their product, whether the issue is 
accessibility or something else. To me, that is an important aspect when it 
comes to whether or not I purchase a product. DC7 allows you to play with 
every aspect of the program for ten days before buying it. They also offer 
phone and email support even for demos. For me, that counts for something. 
It may not be the only audio editing program you will ever need. But for my 
money, I would submit that there is no such thing. I use each program's 
strengths to accomplish what I need to accomplish. And at present, with all 
due respect to Sound Forge users, it is the program that I use the least. It 
is also the program that, for me, has generated the fewest ansers when it 
comes to "how to" questions which I have posted where and when appropriate. 
I make these observations with the full knowledge that other folks use Sound 
Forge exclusivey. I'm just sharing the oppinion that for me, and this is

Hi John. Have you downloaded the demo? I haven't used DC 6 or 7 with Jaws 
very much, but they work well with Window-eyes. Have you tried the DC7 demo? 
It is a fully functional demo which works for 10 days before you're required 
to either give it up or open your wallet.

An important note, DC7 offers more funcionality and from an accessibility 
standpoint it works the same as DC6. I would suggest downloading it and just 
see what you can do with it.

Re: Goldwave Audio Editor

2008-03-04 Thread Larry N
Hi Gary. Well of course I'm limited with wave forms. I think that's a 
problem with all such software. However, you do have built-in choices for 
the kind of noise that you want to reduce, and presets which allow you to 
work with the sound with what is quite honestly trial and error. However, 
the original sound is always saved, so you can mess around a bit without 
worrying. The kind of noise that I work with is surface noise from 78s, 
often with homemade recordings from back when people owned machines that 
recorded on 78s. I know the presets that I need for such recordings and 
apply them. When it comes to reducing cassette hiss, there are 4 different 
presets ranging from light to heavy handed and including everything in 
between which are clearly spoken and work extremely well with speech. You 
can also adjust those settings with your own variations and save them, much 
as you can in GoldWave.

I also use Dc6 a lot for recording. It's quick and simple to set up. And if 
you screw up the recoring somehow and want to start over, you just hit altF4 
and the program prompts you with speech, asking if you want to delete the 
current recording. As I said, fast, easy and painless. For recording ease 
alone the app is worth it to me.

Now, as a Sound Forge user, can you tell me how to go about reducing vinyl 
pops clicks and other anomalies using Sound Forge? It's probably me, but I'm 
not getting it. All i see is a choice that calls itself audio restoration 
and offers 2 different choices for restoring.

By the way, I have Window-eyes 6.1 and Jaws 8. Would scripts help? If so, 
where do I get them and what in the world do I do with them once I have 
them?

usually you have to buy the soundforge noise reduction plugin separately, I

it may be bundled with version 9. How do you use the editor in DC 6?

I've only ever really seriously used noise reduction plug-ins to
remove hiss or constant noise through capturing a noise print, all
I've tried thus far (and these include the offerings from Sound Forge,
Total Recorder and Amadeus Pro) have done an excellent job at this task.
When it comes to more difficult noise removal? Well (and again this is
my experience) I've found I get better results when I got a sighted
friend to "pencil" in the various noises and remove them manually.

Re: sound editing?

2008-03-01 Thread Larry N
Hi Billy. Interesting question. I have 4 sound editors onboard. There's 
GoldWave, Sound Forge 8, DC 6 and WavePad. If you are asking about simple 
ease of use, accessibility and a manual that is easy to understand and set 
up in a way that can be accessed quickly, then GoldWave wins hands down. 
However, there are tasks that DC6 performs better than any piece of software 
that I've ever used. For instance, it has excellent hiss reduction and 
comprehensive noise reduction. The down side is that its manual is difficult 
to use with speech.

And Sound Forge? I truly feel that I get less out of it than I probably 
should, simply due to a lack of understanding. For instance, Sound Forge 
works with editable files which are made into and edited from what the 
program calls regions. What is a region? I'm not exactly sure, nor am I 
certain how to go about creating one or editing the thing with keyboard 
alone. Perhaps it is my own inability to understand, but none of the Sound 
Forge faithful have been able to show me why this program is worth its hefty 
price tag. I would still love to know how to take a recorded file, such as 
that generated by a vinyl LP and edit out pops clicks and extraneous noise, 
then burn it onto a CD using Sound Forge only. Others in this group can do 
so, however I have not succeeded as yet.

Meanwhile, with the exception of actually burning the CD, I can edit a 
project from start to finish using either GoldWave or DC6,

To be entirely fair, I can perform some tasks more quickly while using Sound 
Forge. It's equalizer is superior. Its general audio restoration feature 
works quickly and for the most part reliably when applied to an entire file. 
But I don't find the manual easy to use, so I'm sure I'm not getting the 
most from the program.

As for WavePad, that hasn't been discussed much here. I own a copy, but to 
be honest, I haven't played with it a great deal as yet.

Others will have their own ideas, but if I were buying my first audio editor 
which could take me far beyond the beginner stage, I would choose GoldWave.

Hope this helps you in some small way.

Larry

That is a drawback. Also, with Napster, you only have access to the music

Re: Yahoo's Music Unlimited Being Discontinued

2008-02-23 Thread Larry N
Yes it has stations and their quality is quite good. The limitation there is 
that they claim to be "jaws compliant" which they are, but the stations 
don't work with Window-Eyes. I have both, so I've been able to confirm the 
accuracy of that claim. I'd be interested to hear if any Window-Eyes users 
have been able to make the stations work as that is the screen reader that I 
prefer to use when possible and practical.

You can also play many of the tracks on the service, and download them for 
use for as long as you subscribe.

The only down side is that some tracks, too many in my view, are only 
available for purchase. It seems to me that if you are paying $10 a month, 
you should be able to download all tracks on the service for use as long as 
you are a subscriber without paying extra to purchase them if that is your 
choice. My own trial period is nearing its end, and if I don't continue as a 
subscriber, that one down side will be the reason why.

Hope this helps you.

Re: Nero

2008-02-23 Thread Larry N
Bruce, it's interesting that you say what you said about Easy CD-DA 
Extractor. I'm not a huge Nero fan and have been looking at Easy CD as an 
alternative. This leads to 2 questions.

First, is it possible to set diffent pause lengths between individual tracks 
on one Cd. For instance, 2 seconds between tracks 2 and 3, 1 second between 
4 and 5 and 0 seconds between 7 and 8. If so, how is this accomplished?

Secondly, I've heard that in Easy CD version 11, the F8 key no longer works 
as a burn CD or rip command. Is this true, and if so, what's the workaround?

Thanks for any and all responses.

Re: Yahoo's Music Unlimited Being Discontinued

Marsha, Napster is cheaper, quite accessible and incidentally does not 
exclude those of us who live in Canada, the way that so many American 
services do. I know that in Canada you can try the service for a week before 
your credit card is charged. In the States there are promo codes out there 
which allow a 2 week trial.

Hope this helps.

iTunes and Audio Editing Questions for Mac Users

2008-02-10 Thread Larry N
When trying to purchase downloads from the iTunes store while using windows, 
I found the process to be 100 percent inaccessible. I needed my wife's help 
through the entire process, which means to me that iTunes workability with 
windows is unacceptable.

That being said, we have it in mind to purchase a Mac as a next computer. 
So, would an iTunes purchase be possible for a blind person to complete 
independently while using a Mac. Taking it a step further, I would like to 
hear from anyone who has experience with editing audio on a Mac, be it good 
bad or indifferent.

If answering either question would move us out of the realm of what is 
acceptable on this list, please feel free to email me personally.

Thanks for any suggestions, oppinions or general comments.

Napster question

2008-02-08 Thread Larry N

Hi. A few days ago someone posted a message stating that to use Napster with 
a screen reader, it was necessary to access using their web based interface. 
Since I'm considering giving napster a try among other services, I have a 
couple of questions. First, if I'm downloading from a web based interface 
rather than using their software, is there still something that I need to 
download as a subscriber in order to download files? Second, When accessing 
on the web can one do everything that other users accomplish with downloaded 
software?

These may sound like beginner questions but my only recent downloading 
experience is with Emusic. Very easy to use and super reliable, but their 
selection, though interesting, eclectic  and with some excellent choices 
also has a ton of gaps when it comes to many major artists. So I'm looking 
around. No problem paying a bit. I just want it to work.

Re: HD radio

2008-01-12 Thread Larry N
Adrian, in Internet Explorer, to add a station's direct audio link to 
favorites, do the following.
1. Right click the link to the station's audio feed.
2. arrow down to the choice that says "add to favorites and press enter.
3.  Follow the usual process for placing the new favorite in any folder that 
you like.

What I do then is to right click the favorite, send the link to my desktop 
and place it in a folder which is devoted to the stations that I like. Then 
when I want to listen to one, I don't even need to open the browser.

If the station has an embedded player and won't let me add the listen link 
to my favorites or to my desktop, I can at least ad a shortcut for the 
listen page to my desktop folder, again, avoiding the need to open the 
browser.

We have a bunch of digital music cable channels that pose that problem for 
me. Title and artist are printed on the screen, but my wife shouldn't have 
to be my DJ every time I want to know what song is playing.

Most of the XM stations that I've listened to will at least back announce 
after every 4 or 5 songs, and the decade channeles have jocks that talk even 
more. Plus XM play lists are much much larger than those offered by 
commercial stations. I thought the antenna might have a problem working 
inside, but the signal strength  is at its highest possible level with the 
antenna sitting against our living room window.

Re: HD radio

2008-01-11 Thread Larry N
Here in Canada we don't have HD, but I've listened to a lot of it online. 
With a couple of exceptions, it's pretty much all music, no commercials and 
no jocks. Play lists are, in many cases expanded and formats are not quite 
as restrictive and unimaginative as most commercial stations.

I wouldn't be surprised if you find that XM is the superior product. I got 
and XM radio for Christmas and I love it. Still, if I lived somewhere that 
offered a decent number of Hd choices, I'd give it a try.

Problem with audio muting at random

2007-12-04 Thread Larry N
Hi. I have a problem with my sound card muting all audio, seemingly at 
random. Everything looks normal on the computer but there is no sound. And 
if I open up Sounds and Audio devices, everything shows as muted.

This problem can happen once and then not happen again for 3 months or it 
can happen 2 days in a row while I'm in the middle of work. So far, there's 
no rhyme or reason for this anomaly.

My question then? Aside from trusting Windows to maintain a given audio 
setting, might there be software that forces audio to assume certain 
settings upon rebooting? Failing that, could I somehowe save a given audio 
configuration to the desktop, one thatI could locate and press to force my 
audio settings to take effect? This is an extremely random problem, so I 
would like a method of countering it while I try to figure out what's 
causing it.

Thanks for any ideas.

Larry

Hi there. After having some problems with Winamp 5.35, I finally downloaded 
Winamp 5.5. Now, every time I boot the computer, something called Winamp 
remote wants to be loaded. Could someone please let me know how I can stop 
thiss from happening? This is a backup machine without a lot of space, which 
is primarily used to stream XM without the need to buy a second receiver. If 
it weren't for that feature, I think that I would seek another player. The

Re: Splitting Files with Cool Edit or Other Audio Program, Urgent, Job Related

2007-11-06 Thread Larry N
Hi Beth. I have most of the popular sound editors onboard and when it comes 
to splitting files, I would recommend GoldWave. In my own work, I use it for 
that purpose every day. Not only is it easy to split files, but the cost is 
only around $50, which should make it easier to sell your employer on the 
purchase. The entire program is very easy to use with a screen reader and, 
as has been noted here, scripts are available for Jaws users. It will 
definitely do what you need it to do quickly and efficiently.

Hi Tim. I agree. Excessible is a term that I use primarily within the 
confines of this group. After all, how is a sighted person supposed to know 
what that means to me. And even within this group it's almost a cliche. That 
being said, excessible to me means raised buttons for changing channels and 
all. Speech would be nice, but I didn't think it existed. When I asked XM 
Canada customer care whether or not they had raised buttons on their 
receivers, the person who responded said that they had no such receivers and 
thanked me for my interest.. I had hoped and still hope to find out which 
service offered the most functionality for me as a blind guy and then take 
it from there, learning which service offered more of what I want to hear.

Hi Bob and thanks for the response. The truth is, I know next to nothing 
about sattelite receivers. I did phone XM, and was told they had no 
receivers with raised buttons. Probably not true, but I didn't appreciate 
the brush off.

Now then, after reading your post, I have 2 questions. First, what is the 
name or number of the sirius model that you're using? Second, when you say 
that I would need to purchase the boombox that this unit would clip in to, 
are you talking about a standard stereo system or something else related to 
sattelite technonogy. Please forgive these very basic questions, but my only 
sattelite listening experience is through XM on Winamp.

Thanks in advance.

Hi. Does anyone know of an accessible Sirius Canada home receiver? According 
to XM Canada Customer Care, they don't possess such an animal, so it's off

I agree. Cassette to Cd is quite Viable. I've transferred many of my own and 
for customers with good results. If the cassette is in good shape, there's 
no reason why it can't be transferred to a good CD. I would especially 
recommend such a transfer if the cassette is one that you like to listen to 
frequently.

Re: How to best or easiest way to Record Audio Cassettes to the PC?

2007-10-10 Thread Larry N
That would be a good thing to check when setting up any recording system, 
yes. I've never run into the problem with any of my setups,, but I can see 
how it could  very easily be a factor.

In this case, my understanding of Gail's original question is that she is 
transferring cassettes only. In that case, she probably should just patch 
the cassette deck directly into her PC.No reason to add unnecessary 
elements.

Excessive volume from your recording source can also fry your sound card. 
But if you start with the volume turned low and adjust it upward in small 
increments, you should be ok.

Re: How to best or easiest way to Record Audio Cassettes to the PC?

2007-10-10 Thread Larry N
Yes, you can plug the cassette deck directly into your computer. The reason 
that I prefer a receiver is that it allows me to patch in multiple sources, 
such as a turntable, another deck or even a tuner. I also like using a mixer 
as it lets me tweek the audio and to some degree the volume, directly from 
the mixer before I start recording.

Re: How to best or easiest way to Record Audio Cassettes to the PC?

2007-10-09 Thread Larry N
Hi Gail and welcome to the group. You will first need to connect a receiver 
to your computer and then connect your cassette deck to your receiver. If 
you need help in doing that, there are plenty of people here who can guide 
you through it. As for transferring your cassettes to the computer and 
editing them, I agree with Walter. GoldWave is your best and most economical 
choice. It also boasts excellent documentation. There are lots of GoldWave 
users on this list who can help you with any problems. Finally, for burning, 
Easy CD-DA Extractor would be worth considering. You could download the 
fully functional trial version and see what you think. Again, lots of users 
of that program on this list. You might also want to think about downloading 
Express Burn. It's also a good CD burner and works very well with Jaws.

There are more expensive sound editors and burners out there, but for cost 
and ease of use, those would be my suggestions.

That should get you started with some things to try out. -

Hope this helps.

Larry

Winamp Question

2007-10-09 Thread Larry N
Hi. As a couple of folks in this group have suggested, I'm looking at 
Windows Media Player as a possibility for taking over many tasks that I now 
assign to Winamp. But for the moment, my question is this. In Winamp 5.35 I 
frequently encounter a runtime error. Reinstalling hasn't seemed to help and 
no other player exhibits this issue. Has anyone else experienced this 
problem?

Re: Easy CD DA Extractor, my ipinion for what its worth

2007-10-02 Thread Larry N
Michael, or anyone else who is experienced with Easy CD DA and cares to take 
a shot at my questions.

1. Easy CD claims to do text writing. How does one go about that in this 
program.

2. Let's say that I have an album where I want varying pause lengths between 
tracks. Maybe between tracks 1 and 2, I want the customary 2 seconds. But 
let's say that between tracks 4 and 5, I want no pause at all, and between 7 
and 8 I want 1 second. Can I accomplish that with Easy CD DA?

Thanks for any answers you might offer. I want to continue upgrading with 
technology, but Nero's price tag has me looking around for possible 
alternatives.

Hi, actually it's my understanding that they don't have a trial version 
available as yet. If you want to purchase the program at the reduced price, 
you would be doing so in advance of release, and with no demo to try before 
you buy. That's why I would hesitate. There's no guarantee that I would be

Re: Burning Audible Books to CD

2007-09-29 Thread Larry N
I did speak to Audible's tech support people. They claim that the only way 
to burn an audible  book is with Nero. I did look at Nero 7, but aside from 
its ability to burn Audible books, I don't see what it can do for me that 6 
can't. I burn CDs only, and if 7 produces a superior CD, I can't see how. I 
also can't see purchasing 7 when 8 is just around the corner. Guess we'll 
see what it has to offer wwhen they trot it out.

I spoke to GW Micro, and was told that they hadn't yet worked with Nero 8. 
Not sure if that's the case universally.

Re: Audiotapes onto CDs

2007-09-29 Thread Larry N
I would have to respectfully disagree with the oppinion that one can't edit 
with DC6. . I use DC6 for editing on a daily
basis. Perhaps it could be said that certain aspects of DC6 are 
innaccessible or less accessible than other editors, but I honestly have not 
run into anything except for a bit of a learning curve for certain editing 
issues. The
menus are quite accessible, and all filters can be tried without fear, 
because all of them have a clearly spoken preview mode that lets you listen 
to the change in question while changing nothing in the actual file until 
you apply the alteration.

Many on this list prefer Sound Forge or Goldwave, both excellent choices 
which I
also use daily. I'm only offering an oppinion that DC6 is also a viable 
consideration for the mix

Speaking as someone who uses several different editors professionally, I 
would advise that anyone intrested might be best served by trying demos of 
all the major editors. Then choose the one that fits your needs, comfort 
level and budget. That's why demos are out there. In the end, what works for 
you is the best choice.

Peace,

Larry

Hi Bill. I have no problem using DC 6 with the keyboard. The menus and all 
functions speak very well. You could download DC6 and try it before you by 
it. Unless they've changed the demo since I used it, you can try any 
function you like. You just can't save anything.

Burning Audible Books to CD

2007-09-27 Thread Larry N
According to someone I talked to at Audible, Nero 7 is the only program that 
can be used to burn Audible books to CD, something that is apparently legal 
with many of their books. My problem? I really like Nero 6 and several other 
burning programs a lot better than I like Nero 7. So, my question, has 
anyone had any success burning Audible books to CD when using any other 
program?

Re: Nero 7 Question

2007-09-27 Thread Larry N
Tony, the interesting... oK frustrating thing about Nero 7 is that it will 
not let you out of its little browser when you want to choose an alternative 
method of finding files. For instance, let's say you have files that you 
want to gather together from several folders. With Nero 6, you could do that 
easily. What I've found with 7, is that I had to create an audio  folder and 
ask my wife to set Nero to land in that folder when choosing audio. That 
should work, as it has been my experience that Nero 7 doesn't want to 
migrate from folder to folder using the keyboard. On the plus side, it will 
let you work with files within the folder as before.

I don't think I'll be buying Nero 8 unless it's a lot more excessible than 
7.

2007-09-27 Thread Larry N
Samuel, if you don't mind spending a bit more, DC6 offers 4 levels of 
dedicated hiss removal and always lets you preview the results before you 
save them. Even after you save your results, you still have the original 
file and can go back to it if you change your mind. You can also create your 
own hiss removal  filters within the program.

If memory serves, the price of DC 6 lives somewhere in the middle between 
the cost of GoldWave and the full version of Sound Forge.

Nero 7 Question

2007-09-26 Thread Larry N
No answer on my last Nero question, so let's try it another way. Since I 
can't figure out how to get Nero to build CDs through Windows Explorer, I've 
dedicated a folder where I dump songs for CD burning for use with Nero's 
file browser. The interesting thing in Nero is that while I can't scroll 
down through the  various folders that contain music, I can scroll through 
each individual folder and read all info concerning each song. So I'm 
wondering if maybe I'm doing something wrong. I have both Window-Eyes and 
Jaws, so I can work around this problem with either screen reader. Any 
suggestions? Or is Nero just a bit less accessible than it was with version 
six?

Thanks,
Larry

Nero 7 File Browser

2007-09-25 Thread Larry N
Hi. Nero 7 seems to possess it's own independent file browser, for choosing 
tracks, which the program is set to use by default. When adding tracks to a 
CD layout, I want to use Windows Explorer instead. How do I go about telling 
Nero to do that?

Thanks in advance.

Easy CD DA Extractor Questions

2007-09-20 Thread Larry N
Hi. First, can I create a CD where some tracks have the standard 2 second 
pause before the next track starts playing, while other tracks have a 0 or 1 
second pause? If so, how do I do that? Second, how is text writing done in 
Easy CD DA Extractor?

Thanks in advance.

Nero 7 Question

2007-09-20 Thread Larry N
I just downloaded Nero 7, through an Audible.com promotion which 
supposedly allows one to burn Audible books to CD while also letting you 
burn standard CDs as usual. My first problem is that when faced with the 
entire Nero Suite, I can't even find the CD burning element of the program. 
First, how do I find the CD burning element of the program? Second, is it 
anywhere near as accessible as Nero 6, or should I downgrade instead of 
paying for an upgrade?

Re: Goldwave and Windows Media Center

2007-09-20 Thread Larry N
Clifford, it has been my experience that GoldWave works as well on Windows 
Media Center operating systems as it does on any other operating system. I 
too have had problems with certain software packages that clash with Media 
Center for reasons that I can neither understand nor solve,  but GoldWave is 
not among the problem apps.

Splitting tracks in Sound ForgeRe: new rechargeable ready to go:

2007-09-19 Thread Larry N
I believe this is probably a simple issue, but I'm having trouble finding 
the solution in Sound Forge eight's PDF manual.

I want to divide trakds after transferring them from a vinyl album to the 
computer. Up to now, I've performed the task in GoldWave, which, as 
mentioned in another post, hasn't been working for me lately. Can someone 
tell me how to do this in Sound Forge 8 using Window-Eyes?

Thanks in advance.

Ultra weird GoldWave problem

I've been using GoldWave for a long while and am now using version 5.19. 
This is happening on 2 computers, so it's either me or GoldWave, not the 
hardware.

In my work, one of the things I do is to divide vinyl albums into separate 
tracks after transferring them to the computer. Once divided, I trim the 
silence off the beginning and then go to the end and trim silence from that 
end of the file. If the song is say... 3 minutes long, I now have a 3 minute 
file. Quite naturally, I then hit save. Once doing that, in about a quarter 
of my files, I then have a file that is 59 seconds long. Not 58, not a 
minute, but almost always 59 seconds. Any Goldwave experts care to take a

Audible.com Question

2007-08-07 Thread Larry N
Hi there. I haven't used audible.com before, but now that I've been 
given a gift certificate, I'll be trying them out. The webvsite suggests 
reading their audio books with either the audible.com player or Itunes. My 
question for those who have used this service is, what player would you 
suggest that I use? Also, is there anything else that I should know 
regarding accessibility?

Thanks in advance. Your thoughts are much appreciated.

Re: Audio on Windows Vista

2007-07-29 Thread Larry N
Hi Edwin. As far as I know, Sound Forge 8.0 cannot be installed on Vista. 
You would have to upgrade to Sound Forge 9.0 to use the program on Vista.

One of my Vista concerns is that it will not run some programs that were 
designed for XP. So, yes you do indeed have advantages with new Vista audio 
alternatives, but you may also find that a necessary element of the upgrade 
is to upgrade software as well. And in some cases, there could be software 
packages that the developer has abandoned.

While these audio aspects are no reason to reject Vista, it seems to me that 
they must be considered when deciding whether or not to upgrade to Vista.

Just my two cents for whatever it's worth.

Re: Listening to www.cjob.com

2007-06-28 Thread Larry N
Bruce, on one of our home systems I tried the links that read 
popup_audioplayer, Click to Listen to CJOB online
and Listen Live. All gave me the Bombers game that they're broadcasting now. 
We used to have a Linksys router and it gave us the same problem that you 
are experiencing, along with sharing issues within our network. After some 
frustrating attempts to resolve the issues, we replaced it with a Netgear 
router. That solved both streaming and sharing problems.Probably not quite 
what you're hoping to hear, but that was our experience.
