Re: Is there a location to listen to archived NCAAMen's Basketballgames?

2011-12-05 Thread Mike Mote
Kentucky is available through the U-live site.  Some teams do offer archived 
games, and some do not.  For instance, Auburn offers the live football 
broadcasts, but not on demand.  Best thing to do is to visit the official UK 
athletic site, and search there.  I'll try and look for you, and see what I 
find.

Hi Mike.

I'm looking for the University of Kentucky's game against North Carolina. 
I
went to the Kentucky web site, but couldn't find what I was looking for. 
I
also went to the cbssports.com/ulive site, but all I found was hilights 
and

post game comments.  I'm looking for the entire game.  If I haven't looked
deep enough just let me know or point me in the right direction.

Thanks in advance for your help.

GO CATS!

converting an improper wavefile

2011-12-05 Thread Joe Giovanelli
Hello, Listers

I recorded and edited a concert which my CD burner rejects as an incompatible 
wave file.

The only clue I find is that if I examine the information about the file it 
shows a number: 1536.  I see from looking at other files that I should see: 
1411.

I am running Goldwave — a late but not the latest version.

My suspicion is that I may have pressed the wrong frequency button on my Zoom H 
4 recorder.

Can I recover this file or will I have to record in analog?  I originally 
copied the file from the SD card used in the Zoom.

Thank you for whatever help you can offer.

Altec Lansing inmotion KICK IMT 520 portable iPhone/iPod Dock

2011-12-05 Thread Dane Trethowan
One word sums up this unit, "Beautiful!" in both looks and sound and price, I 
bought the power house for $85.00 Australian, normally this little beauty is 
around $225.00 Australian so shop around.

A brief description, the dock looks like a very square boombox, a speaker each 
side of the dock itself.

Basic controls are on the top of the dock and they're well spaced with nice big 
buttons, if you have good touch you'll be able to feel the symbols and writing 
on each.  The controls turn on power, play/pause, adjust volume up and down and 
go to previous nad next track, a more advanced control layout is offered on the 
remote.

Sound is what you'd expect from an Altec Lansing device, plenty of bass, plenty 
of mid-range and hice crisp clear tops.

The set uses an internal rechargeable battery which gives around 6 hours of 
playing time, when the dock is powered the iPhone or iPod will charge with the 
dock.

Convenience is another word which can be used to describe this piece of 
equipment, you can for example pick the unit up and set it down on a stirdy 
stand in a few seconds with the use of the folding handle, fold it upright to 
pick the device up, fold it into a middle locking position to make a angled 
stand for a desktop or tuck the handle away completely when carrying the dock 
in a case or a bag.

The small card-type remote control for the Dock slits into the back panel when 
not in use or when transporting which is a nice touch, no excused to lose the 
remote control for this dock .

On list we've discussed the Jawbone Jambox speaker system so I guess the 
obvious question is, "How is this dock different from the Jambox?".

Firstly, the inmotion KICK IMT 520 is a wired dock, that is to say that an 
iPhone or iPod plugs into it either by the dock connector or via the line-in 
jack at the rear of the unit, this dock does not have Bluetooth facilities and 
nor is it a hands free Speakerphone.  If a call does come and your music is 
playing, the music will be paused allowing you to answer the call in the usual 
ways, either by tapping the screen of your iPhone or by using some sort of 
speakerphone device.

How does the sound compare to the Jambox? We're talking 2 totally different 
beasts here, Jambox has a more "Solid" sound however Jambox would be totally 
out of place in a noisy room or at a party, the Altec inmotion KICK IMT 520 is 
clear and loud enough to be heard at your party or gathering so in the words of 
the brochure for the system "Pick it up, put it down and play!".

loss of bass in my zoom h 4

2011-12-05 Thread Joe Giovanelli
Hello Everyone,

I have been using my H 4 for a couple of years and achieve great results.  The 
48-volt phantom power is a great feature.

A few days ago I got lost somewhere in the menus while changing between the 
internal mikes and the external mikes.  I got that straight eventally but from 
then on the bass response was down perhaps as much 20 dB.

I never use the Effects module.  Even so, the only place where there's a 
mention of bass cut or boost is when using "Effects."

It looks to me that whatever is done with Effects, it wouldn't include using 
external microphones.

Has the machine failed or is this cockpit error?  If the latter, how do I fix 
this?

Thank you very much.  You are all much more expert than I'll ever be.

Re: Altec Lansing Expressionist Ultra Speakers

2011-12-05 Thread jason
Oh ok fair enough I just wanted to know thanks for replying back to me 
on this topic because I love speakers that you can hear all sound from 
especially surround sound, enough that you can feel the vibration of the 
music and just hear the beautiful sound.

Hi!

O don't think there are any best speakers on the market, its all down

I've had Altec Lansing speakers for my PC's and Mac's in the past, 
I've been happy to own them thus I've mentioned them here so other 
people may listen to or buy them as the case may be.


I have 2 model of altec Lansing speaker system here both of which I 
like very much.


I have the Expressionist Plus which I mentioned about a month ago and 
the Expressionist Ultra which I've been talking about over the last 
week or so.


The Expressionist ultra speakers are one of the very few sets of 
speaker system for computer systems where the sound is "All there", 
the mid-range, the treble and certainly the bass and it appears that 
no materr what volume you run this system at there's no distortion so 
its obvious that the 5 digital amps in the system are doing their job 
.


One thing that does annoy me about this system and its a very slight 
annoyance is the subwoofer, its huge! standing 15 inches high, looks 
more like a pollished wooden PC tower case so if big sub-woofers annoy 
you then don't bother with this system.


Yep, Creative and other company's have offerings which are very well 
reviewed but it will be up to other list members to comment on these 
as I don't have experience with them.


As far as accessibility goes? Well in the case of the speaker systems 
I've been discussing, w're talking speakers and not devices with 
screens one cannot read .

Okay, as I remember here's what's in the Altec Lansing Expressions 
Ultra Box apart from mounds of packing which is absolute proof that 
us humans are descended from apes.


2 satellite 2-way speakers
1 Sub-Woofer
1 control panel
1 3.5MM-3.5MM jack lead
1 manual
1 3.5MM socket to 2 RCA jack adapter

To the control panel, its round and consists of a number of controls.

As you'll see it looks like a mini witches hat, the hat itself turns 
in either direction, you'll hear or feel it click as you turn it, 
each time it clicks the faster the control.


For example by default the knob controls the volume, turn it to the 
first click clockwise and the volume increases slowly, turn to the 
next click and volume increase is more rapid and so on.


On the top of the controller are 3 buttons, 2 which are big and a 
middle button which is small.


The upper of the 2 big buttons is your treble, press once and then 
turn the knob to adjust treble.


The lower button is your bass, press once and then turn knob to 
adjust base.


The smaller button in the middle is your "power" button, press once 
to turn power on and press again to turn power off.


This button has another default, if held down for 3 seconds the 
speakers are reset to their default volume, bass and treble settings.


Now their could be more options and settings I don't know about, I 
mentioned that the manual isn't the readable type so everything I've 
mentioned here I've found out by playing around with the system.

Winamp, reinstalled but how do I find?

2011-12-05 Thread Walter
Hi folks.  When I originally installed winamp I selected the "full" option.
It took 2 or 3 minutes to launch.  I uninstalled it and then reinstalled but
this time selected the standard option and Classic Skin.  It launched a bit
quicker but once I exited it, I couldn't get it to relaunch again.  I added
a very large folder to the library but I can't find that list of tracks.
There over 10,000 tracks in there but I can't find a list of these tracks.
The player does play the music from this track list and by pressing the
letter V I can move to the next track.  However, I can't find out How to
view the whole track list.  I know when I launch Winamp all I get once
launched is the message increase volume and decrease volume when I press the
up and down arrows.  I have to press alt and F to get any options.  I know
lots of people love this programme but it doesn't seem very accessible on
first impressions.  If anyone has any suggestions then they would be

Hi Walter,

You need to open the playlist editor.  You can do this by pressing alt+e.  Then 
press ctrl+tab to move between the playlist editor, 
the main window and any other program windows you have open.  When in the 
playlist editor, you can arrow up and down the list of 
tracks.

Winamp is very accessible, but it isn't very standard. What screen
reader are you using? If you're using JAWS, I'd recommend going into the
JAWS documentation and reading up on Winamp. It'll include hot keys,

Another tip:  if you hit Jaws plus W, you'll get a list of playback 
commands; I think other keystrokes are in there too!

Winamp is very accessible, but it isn't very standard. What screen
reader are you using? If you're using JAWS, I'd recommend going into the
JAWS documentation and reading up on Winamp. It'll include hot keys,
tips and so on.

Hi folks.  When I originally installed winamp I selected the "full" 
option.
It took 2 or 3 minutes to launch.  I uninstalled it and then reinstalled 
but
this time selected the standard option and Classic Skin.  It launched a 
bit
quicker but once I exited it, I couldn't get it to relaunch again.  I 
added

a very large folder to the library but I can't find that list of tracks.
There over 10,000 tracks in there but I can't find a list of these 
tracks.

The player does play the music from this track list and by pressing the
letter V I can move to the next track.  However, I can't find out How to
view the whole track list.  I know when I launch Winamp all I get once
launched is the message increase volume and decrease volume when I press 
the
up and down arrows.  I have to press alt and F to get any options.  I 
know

lots of people love this programme but it doesn't seem very accessible on
first impressions.  If anyone has any suggestions then they would be
appreciated.  Walter.

Can't find the link to get the installer.  I did manage to get a 104MB file 
called itunes10.5.1.dmg which windows won't open.  Windows suggested that i 
need something called paretologic pc health advisor--which I downloaded and 
installed.  Still no go.  Is it worth all this.

Ah, iTunes is a way of life! Seriously, I'm not an iTunes user, but I
went to itunes.com, clicked on the What is iTunes link and saw the
following:

   Overview

   All your digital media, all in one place.
   iTunes Player

   Where you organize, listen, watch, and play.
   iTunes Store

   The world's #1 music store. And more.
   iTunes Everywhere

   On your Mac or PC, iPhone, iPod, iPad, and Apple TV.

Play, buy, and enjoy your music, movies, TV shows, apps, and more.
Everywhere.

I'd suggest going to http://www.apple.com/itunes/what-is/ to check it
out. If you're still interested then you can download the program for
the Mac or Windows and start organizing your music, playlists and
podcasts and visiting the iTunes Store. Obviously, if you're going to
get an iPhone, iPod or iPad then iTunes is what you would use to
synchronize your content between the different devices.

I'll throw a forth player into the discussion, I like Itunes, the
people at GW Micro have - at long last - done a great job with the
iTunes scripts and it works like clockwork.

the software can be a little challenging for beginners but there are
plenty of help guides and tutorials around.

I mainly like iTunes I have to admit for the "Smart Playlist" feature
where you can create aplaylist and literally programme it to play what
you want to be played, for example if a song has been played over so
many times, if a song was added on a particular date and so on.

You got the apple ios version.  Kind of hard to find that windows download

Hi do you have there version of the mad plug in.
That will work with the newest version of win amp?
If you do would you please send it to me.

Subject: Winamp Versus wmp Versus VLC Versus



Hi all. I'm toying with the idea of experimenting with various media
players. Unfortunately not all are worth the trouble and still others
are
not accessible with JAWS. At this time I use both VLC witch does a good
enough job and WMP which is fine but rather restrictive. I'm
referring here
to playback and neither ripping nor burning as I use Nero express for
burning, and now and then Express burn. For ripping I use CDEX which I
like. I used to use Reel player but when I got my PC reformatted I never
did reinstall it. My question is how does Winamp compare with the other
media players I've mentioned? I have never observed this player being
used
nor of course tried it. Is it accessible with JAWS 12 and or do you need
scripts to access it's functions? How is the playback quality and
response
time. Sometimes the latest version isn't the best version so in your
opinion, what version is the most successful? Finally, what other
players
would you recommend, free or otherwise. The important thing is ease
of use,
it is of little use if the sound quality is the best in the world but
if you
can't use it with a screen reader then it is a waste of time. All
comments
will be welcome and read. Walter.
