Re: Fwd: Total Recorder V7 just keeps getting better
hi People are passionate about their operating system of choice, so refering to a windows PC as a trashbox probably wasn't the smartest way to start an article about a Windows only program. Hey he's entitled to his opinion and we windows users are entitled to ours. I'm just sayin. I hope Replay AV will eventually have the time-shifting, or chase playback feature he mentioned, that's nice to have especially when you're doing lots of things at once.

Re: Total Recorder V7 just keeps getting better
Hello Steve and other list members, correct me if I'm wrong, but wasn't that guy told not to refer to the PC as a 'trash box' a long time ago? I can remember any discussion that came up about audio editors and the PC verses the MACK, he called the PC a TRASH BOX. Many people on this list have told hem not to do that, but he still does any way. The hints are there, he's just not taking them. But any way, that's my thoughts about the whole thing anyway. I will be turning my back on the Windows system for the MACK system. I am going to a MACK system because of the fact that Microsoft wants to force VISTA on us. But I don't think the PC is a TRASH BOX. My best regards.

Now we come to a second part of Total Recorder V7 which I believe to be a great leap forward and that's the ability to Capture Internet streams in their native format, up until now when you've captured an Internet stream the stream has been converted to another format thus usually causing some aspects of audio quality to be lost, you can still have Total Recorder convert to your desired format if that's what you want.

RE: Fwd: Total Recorder V7 just keeps getting better
I read the rest of the post even though I knew there was going to be a condescending comment or two about windows in it. there always is. However, I own the program and haven't installed the Vista version. If macks are so great why is this guy keeping Windows open for good programs like total recorder? -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Mac Norins Sent: Tuesday, July 15, 2008 8:31 PM To: PC Audio Discussion List Subject: Re: Fwd: Total Recorder V7 just keeps getting better Yeah, Rick, some Mac users think they have it going on, now don't they? -Mac- - Original Message - From: Rick Harmon [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: PC Audio Discussion List pc-audio@pc-audio.org Sent: Tuesday, July 15, 2008 5:00 PM Subject: Re: Fwd: Total Recorder V7 just keeps getting better I won't even bother to read the rest of it.

Well the Professional version at $35.00 U.S is a Must Have in my view if you're wanting to record audio, the Chase Playback function sets this application apart from anything else I know about thus far and that alone makes your $40.00 well spent.

Re: Fwd: Total Recorder V7 just keeps getting better
A bit of a different take here. I just read the article and learned from it. The term trash box doesn't do anything to me or for me. But I thought it was an interesting post concerning some aspects of total Recorder. Hey but the post sure did garner more responses than my last question. *grin* Larry Jonathan Mosen List Founder Audio List Help, Guidelines, Archives and more... http://www.pc-audio.org To unsubscribe from this list, send a blank email to: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
