Re: new computer for audio editing
Mickey! Low Latency in this context simply refers to the latency in a sound cards being instructed in what sound to make and it's actually producing the sound. This issue commonly comes up in music production. For example I have a software implementation of a Hammond B3 organ on my computer. When I press a key on my computer keyboard or MIDI piano type keyboard the organ plays through whatever loudspeakers are connected to the computers sound card. If I use this organ with most off the shelf sound cards I will have to wait maybe a quarter of a second or 250 Milliseconds between the time I press a key and hearing a sound. With a Low Latency Sound Card I will only have to wait 1/100 or ten Milliseconds or so. A quarter of a second is a long time but one one hundredth of a second is bearable. I'm not sure the response is any faster than that in a real B3. This is true of almost any software implementation of a musical instrument. A Low Latency sound card is typically more expensive. The one I use cost about $200. They are available for as little as $100. Some of the more recent Sound Blasters claim to have low latency capability but I've read bad reports about them.

Re: Adobe Audition
Hi Dave It's not as simple as in Sound Forge. I myself tend to use the selection box (Alt and 6) to input times then adjust the edges with the appropriate keypresses. In Audition 1.5 selection can be made with the shift key and arrows/pg up/pg dwn, Home and End. It takes time to get used to but it is reliable.

Understanding and comparing compression formats
I've just been learning how to rip music from CDs to my hard drive using several different programs, and the one that interests me most at present is Windows Media Player because of the variety of formats it offers. As I explore and test these formats, one thing confuses me: You can rip Windows Media Audio files about six different ways, not counting the lossless option. Now, I'm aware that .mp3 ripping can be adjusted to use bit rates higher than the default 128 in order to restore a little of the information that a lower bit rate strips out. but understanding that is simple compared to the range of .wma options. Here's the main thing that puzzles me. In the WMP menu for setting your rip options, there are *two* sets of .wma options, each with its own range of sound quality level. First is the .wma choice that uses a slider to provide you with,as I recall, three levels of sound quality. I've ripped the same track with all three, and not only listened to them-- the differences are audible to me, although pretty subtle compared to the difference between any of them and a less compressed lossless or uncompress .wav version. Still, for saving space, I appreciate the compression, so I remain interested. Okay. So the smallest .wma sound quality level creates a really small file, much smaller than the same tune ripped to .mp3. And it doesn't sound any worse than the .mp3, was my impression. The next higher levels create larger files, with the highest quality level creating a file for any given track that's about the same size as a 192 bit rate .mp3. If I go this way, I'd suppose that's the method I'd use, so you get a little better sound quality than an .mp3 for the same file size. But then, right beneath this on that menu, there's a variable bit rate .wma option, again set by a slider, but this time starting at 0 per cent and going up. Zero per cent of what? And, more to the point, if this has to do with changing bit rates (doesn't the other method, I wonder? How else would you change quality except by varying the bit rate?) where are the indications for *what* bit rate this slider takes you through? So that's it. I'm really wondering about this stuff as I try to settle on a preferred rip method to set for my usual use. Does anyone understand whatever it is I'm not getting about these two adjustable .ma formats? Is there anywhere to read a simple primer about them? I don't feel the need to do research if someone can just explain what it is I'm not understanding. But just in case there's some online information about this that would clarify it all, that would be fine, too. Thanks, Daniel -- No virus found in this outgoing message. Checked by AVG Anti-Virus.
