Re: Media Player: Ripping/Burning
Hi Katrina. You can only rip a CD that has been burned as an audio CD, that is, it will play in a standard CD player. I don't know I-Tunes but assume that the MP3 option will burn the CD in the same way as it would a data CD, that is, a set of files. Regards.

Re: An Announcement about a new Internet radio project
Hi. I think you may be slightly exagerating your comments. Sure, there's some high end loss but not enough to make the station unlistenable. If you have a decent pair of stereo speakers the sound is quite acceptable. You should also be aware that any new radio station can possibly have teathing problems. I heard a commercial station in Australia in 1980 which came on the air and because their limiter wasn't working properly they had to keep adjusting the sound to compensate. Foor goodness sake, give Jonathan a fair go and remember where some of you got your start in broadcasting.

Re: An Announcement about a new Internet radio project
There's a station around here on FM that's been on since 51. It seems to have almost no high or low at all as they must filter that all out. I suspect they do this because at times you hear a high-pitch tone on the radio from them that they probably haven't figured any other way to eliminate but equalizing out a bunch. I believe they still use the gear they had back then. Now I think Jonathan's station sounds a whole lot better than the first night. - Original Message - From: "Warren Goodwin" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "PC audio discussion list.

Re: An Announcement about a new Internet radio project
Warren, As the one who started the feedback in this thread, I think I can speak for everyone else who offered their comments: NONE of our comments were, or were intended, to disparage Jonathan, his efforts, or The Minx, IN ANY WAY. They were, AND ARE, offered in the spirit of HELPFUL feedback, to assist in PRECISELY the teething process to which you alluded. And, I'm sure, Jonathan, himself, understands our feedback in just that way. Blessed Be, Dana that's Dayna, D A N A, NOT Donna, D O N N A D. S. Leslie, née C. R.

RE: An Announcement about a new Internet radio project
Hi Warren, thanks for your support. I know that for those who were affected by the original problem, the audio sounded really, really bad, so I've no problem with getting feedback. The issue is resolved now, and we're down to good old personal preference now. There has been and will continue to be much debate over the appropriate level of compression and equalisation. I've been in this game long enough to know that you're never going to please everyone on that front. But the good news is that the original, quite serious problem affecting some listeners is now gone. Thanks.

Subject: Re: An Announcement about a new Internet radio project Hi. I think you may be slightly exagerating your comments. Sure, there's some high end loss but not enough to make the station unlistenable. If you have a decent pair of stereo speakers the sound is quite acceptable. You should also be aware that any new radio station can possibly have teathing problems. I heard a commercial station in Australia in 1980 which came on the air and because their limiter wasn't working properly they had to keep adjusting the sound to compensate. Foor goodness sake, give Jonathan a fair go and remember where some of you got your start in broadcasting. If he hadn't started ACB Radio Interactive some of you people who are so quick to be critical wouldn't be broadcasting today.

I've noticed the *exact* same thing, and I know of 2 or 3 other people who have noticed it too. It's as if there is absolutely no high end on the signal, like an AM radio station might sound, or something like a 24k or 32k mp3 stream may sound. I'm not in any way complaining about this as I explained to Jonathan privately, but I wanted to confirm what Dana is saying here. It's like there's a whole lot of bass, but very little to no high frequencies. Let's hope we can track it down very soon!

RE: An Announcement about a new Internet radio project
Hi Michael, I have absolutely no clue. It was hard because none of the computers here exhibited the problem when I played the stream so it was a hard one for me to emulate. I ended up changing my DSP plug-in for Shoutcasting, changing the compressor used, and a few other random things. One of those things fixed it.

Not sure if Jonathan has done some more tweaking since my last comments, but the stream now sounds great. That near clipping effect I was hearing last night is no longer there.

RE: An Announcement about a new Internet radio project
hi. Yep, it sounds absolutely beautiful now!! See, that's exactly what I meant before, the fact that I was mentioning that the audio sounded awful was to *help* Jonathan fix the problem, and offer suggestions as to how to fix it, not to give him trouble. After all, he was the one who helped me get my start, so I feltt it only fare and proper to help him in return. It's all fixed now, so that's a good thing, the story has a happy ending. yay!

Re: An Announcement about a new Internet radio project
Hello List. Today I purchased a plantronics stereo u s b headset for my computer listening. After installing it I fine, that I can't play audio on both the soundcard and the headset at the same time. As a result, Jaws plays on the headset while music etc plays on from the sound card. Is there a way to play on both simotaneously? In addition, the usb headset is suppose to use the audio controls in the control pannel operated by switches on the headset wire, but this is not working either. The headphones sound wonderful and I'd rather not send them back, but if I need to I will. Any suggestions would be very much appreciated.

Re: flash card recorder
Joe, the ICD-MX20 is great. One can change its menus with the supplied screen reader friendly software. Its recordings are of good quality, but not good enough for radio broadcasts, the maximum audio quality is 48 KBPS. If you work for newspapers etc., you should have no problems with this audio quality. <*** Michael Lang ***> You wrote: > hi friends, i am about to purchase a new recorder, i need a professional > recorder, i was about to purchase a mini-disk recorder i have been useing > mini-disks for my journalism work for the past few years, but now it has > been suggested to me that i change to a flash card recorder, the model > mentioned was the sony ICDMX20, has anyone on the list heard of or used this > piece of equipment, is it blind friendly? or is there a better model around, > hope someone can help, regards, joe. ___ 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.

quality of xm radio was Re: The Minx
Well now, it all depends on the equipment being used. If you're using a crappy pare of speakers, then it'll show. I have a XM MyFi and really love the quality on my home stereo unit, so everyone's ears are different.
