RE: external usb soundcards
Hello Mike: USB headsets normally have their own soundcard, thus if you use say, a Logitech or a Plantronics headset, you can have Jaws and Skype go to the headset instead of the computer soundcard. Humberto -Original Message- From: Pc-audio [mailto:pc-audio-boun...@pc-audio.org] On Behalf Of Mike Bernard Sent: Tuesday, January 27, 2015 5:38 PM To: 'PC Audio Discussion List' Subject: external usb soundcards Hello everyone, I'm in the process of getting a dj position on ACB Radio Interactive. During the first half of the audition prep, I found out that my computer only has one soundcard, and as a result, when I broadcast, my computer sounds and screen reader sounds would end up being broadcasted too. The person training me suggested that an external usb soundcard would solve this issue. Can any of you recommend a good plug n play usb soundcard that would work with the blue yeti usb mic, winamp 5.666, and windows 8.1? For anyone who has ever used multiple soundcards in an audio project involving talking to someone on skype, while broadcasting music over the web, do you know if external usb soundcards have a setting, something like an audition channel of sorts, that would allow you to take skype calls without broadcasting them online? If technology permits, I'm hoping to be able to play music over the air, and take requests via skype off the air. I hope that makes at least a little sense. I'm new to broadcasting online, so my question may sound a little confusing to some people. Thanks in advance for any help. Mike Rochester, NY.

RE: Issue with soundcards and playback using Audacity
I think I've fixed it...sort of. I've just had to use the laptop on board soundcard for JAWS and just use the mic for inputting. It works OK, although I can't monitor the sound levels through headphones as I go. Still pretty OK though.

Re: regarding soundcards and hi-fi's
Of course, when you use an FM transmitter, you don't get the full frequency range. Doesn't matter to me because I'm old and my high frequencies are fading. Also depends upon if it's a legal FM transmitter; the upper frequency limit is 15 KHz. A good hi-fi stereo system will produce 20KHz. I used to could hear those high harmonics.

Re: regarding soundcards and hi-fi's
Though, in the past fifty years, I've had Mac and Marance, I don't think I'll be buying any of those very soon. Getting older, I'm loosing the high frequencies and the tunitis is messing up the rest. So I'll be using my computer sound card (analogly) into whatever amp finds its way to the shelf.

Re: regarding soundcards and hi-fi's
Hello Dan, I have my computer and stereo system hooked up like that right now. But only, I'm using an old Fisher 500-c stereo receiver that has vacuum tubes in it that was made in 1963. My speakers are comprised of 2 Jensen P12N alnico drivers in each cab that are crossed over to 20 HZ for woofers and a Jensen 8QR alnico driver in each cab that are crossed over to 60 HZ for mid ranges and 4 horns in each cab that are also crossed over to 256 HZ for the high end. I get pretty close to studio quality sound from this set up, and it sounds grate! I did once have a pare of 32 watt mono block tube amps that I built from a set of S-5 Electronic kits, but I lost them in a tornado a copal of years ago right along with my house that was also destroyed in the tornado as well. But the good news is, I am in a brand new house. So I was able to reconfigure my whole system to sound like I once did before. My best regards.

high-fi soundcards
Wow. A lot of good advice on sound cards. When I was looking for a good card about a year ago, I decided on the creative x-fi stream music. Unfortunately it was discontinued at about $60 in the US. and I don't think creative ever came up with anything as good to take its place. If you have an older PC WITH WINDOWS 98 OR ME, I have a high end card from turtle beach that's the best I've ever heard with plenty of mic gain and a separate line in jack not found on most cards today. You can contact me off list if your interested but for a newer PC, I think the stream music card would be a good choice if you could still find it. It does have drivers for windows 7. The settings in it are also accessible with Jaws if you use that. Take care, Joe. To unsubscribe from this list, send a blank email to: pc-audio-unsubscr...@pc-audio.org

USB soundcards
Hi I am looking for a USB preferably 7.1 external soundcard with ideally optical and coax digital outputs to connect to my Arcam home cinema amp. Optical would do but coax would be better. I can't see at all so I am looking for something I can operate with jaws compatibility. I am using at the moment a cheap Trust 5.1 card; have tried a Philips Orilium which did not work and an Audegy 2NX which I still have which when connected skipped like a CD and made jaws speak very peculiarly. Any advice would be appreciated. Thanks Brian To unsubscribe from this list, send a blank email to: pc-audio-unsubscr...@pc-audio.org
Soundsettings and soundcards.
Hello! I have a m-audio delta audiophile 192 sound card. Why can't the windows sound settings be set for this kind of card? For example: If you go to the sound settings in the control panel in xp and control tab to the devices. There is an advanced button there where you can change the type of loud speakers for the sound card. But i can't hear any changes when changing from stereo spekers for dsktop computer (translated from swedish) or headphones. The simple question is why? I know that the delta cards has its own control panel but the latest control panel and drivers has really been inaccessible. /Anders.

Headphones and soundcards
Hi Kathy, Don't know for certain this will work but you won't lose anything by trying it. If you are using XP go into control panel and select sounds and audio devices. Now tab to speaker volume. Tab once more to advanced and press enter. If your speaker setup is set to stereo, change it to quadraphonic then tab to OK and press enter. Now, if you keep your fingers crossed, that should do the trick. Good luck. Robert. - Original Message - From: "Kathy Szinnyey" < [EMAIL PROTECTED] > To: "PC audio discussion list.

The trouble happens when I decide I want to go back to listening to my speakers and I unplug my headphones from the headphone jack on the sound card. It seems to me that the speakers, which are still plugged in to the sound card in their own little speaker jack, should just take over again.

This presents a particular problem, as it means that JAWS will only speak through the headset, each time I reboot, until I exit and restart JAWS. But there is a way to edit JFW.INI to force JAWS to use a specific sound card, and not get highjacked by the USB headset. If this is what is happening to you, you could probably prevent JAWS from going silent (actually, talking though the headphones, instead of the speakers), by editing JFW.ini, in this way. But, if this is what is happening, you'll have to go into Control Panel, Sounds and Audio Devices, and reset your default audio device to the card that dives your speakers, each time you unplug your headphones. See if you can determine if this is, indeed, what is happening. If so, perhaps, someone here can figure out a less inconvenient solution. Blessed Be, Dana
dvd ripping and external soundcards
hi all, i'm wanting to get surround playback on my laptop. As far as I know, my sound max digital audio drivers don't support it, unless you use that stereo surround effects stuff. I'm wondering what USB sound cards are out there, or if there are any that plug into the PC slot that will play surround sound. I'm looking into plugins for winamp and plan to rerip my dvd's for surround. Also, was wondering if there is a free way to get the audio from dvd's and get them tagged, and see what i'm ripping instead of just title1 title2 and that, or at least a shareware way? you can email offlist brandon ___ PC-Audio List Help, Guidelines, Archives and more... http://www.pc-audio.org To unsubscribe from this list, send a blank email to: [EMAIL PROTECTED] This list is a service of MosenExplosion.com.

Re: Soundcards
Audigy is only better based on how you will be using the computer. If it is your main source of media entertainment, IE: music, movies and gaming then by all means get audigy and make an investment in a set of speakers that will use it to its fullest capabilities. If on the otherhand, you will only have your screen reading program as your main audio output then find a simple multichannel soundcard. You don't need anything fancy for jaws or window eyes.
