78 rpm for sale

We have a large collection 78 rpm records for sale. Would like to hear from someone that would be interested in whole lot. Please pass on.

Thanks for your response.
The information I need is for voice exercises- screaming etc- in an apartment with thin walls.
Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

i've said this before... I think...

I recorded a saxophonist in a bedroom in a shared house once and surrounded him with his own mattress. We stood the mattress up and cornered him in the corner of the room. I stuck a microphone in there and the results were suprisingly good, (with some reverb and compression). I wouldn't have said that this wouldn't be heard in the next room by the neighbours but it certainly helped...

I don't know any wat of 'shutting yourself' audibly from the outside world other than to either increase your distance from it or seperate yourself from it with as many materials between you and it as possible, Remember, High frequencies travel far if unhindered, but die quickly when they have to travel through poreous/absorbant surfaces whereas low frequencies will move walls and foundations. Grab a couple of mattresses and cover yourself them. It will help, al little... ;0)

Re: To Steve...R

Dagmar,

In order to avoid complaints from your neighbours I always advise screaming 'MURDER' 'KILL' 'SUICIDE' at high levels through thin walls. Works for me!

Uninstalling and reinstalling Music Works Personal

Hi,
I have used Music Works Personal for 3+ years.

Unfortunately, my "C-drive" is now very full and I wish to transfer this program to a new slave hard disk "D-drive".

Please can anyone advise how I should procede to uninstall Music Works from my C-drive and and re-install to the D-drive. I understand that this version is not Windows-based and therefore cannot be uninstalled by the usual add/remove programs from the control panel in Windows ME.

Work files have already been moved to a folder on the D-drive.

Thanks in advance,
Martin Bradley.

Re: Uninstalling and reinstalling Music Works Personal

The problem is that you can't just move the folder, since all registry entries
will still refer to the original location. Cybermedia Uninstaller is allegedly
capable of moving software to different drives and modifying registry entries,
but I've never tried it.

If you no longer have the original CD that the program came on, then it's going
to be tricky.

Andy,
I still have the original CD and have plenty of room to save the entire folder to a temporary folder on the new drive and can then reinstall the entire program. My major concern was detecting any shared files that were created on the original C:Drive when it was installed initially. I also have Norton Utilities which can sometimes detect and clean up any stray bits and pieces.

CD Artist+Titles problems

what do I have to do to get The artists and song titles to appear while I am playing a CD instead of just track 01....etc thank you

Re: CD Artist+Titles problems

: what do I have to do to get The artists and song titles to appear while I am playing a CD instead of just track 01....etc thank you

You have use CDDB service (mean enable it if available) in the options/preferences section in your software. But if it's a deck system, your player must be compatible with CD-Text feature which display current track name (and other detailed info recorded onto CD), but be sure that you'r using original not the recorded ones onto CD-R.

Re: CD Artist+Titles problems

I have a Pioneer DEH-P77DH deck in my truck, and i burnt cd text on a cd with some tracks, i know the cd works fine because in my friends truck it works on his deck, but in mine, im not sure how to get it to work..? please help

Re: CD Artist+Titles problems

Do you mean on a PC CD-ROM or a separate CD player?

If it's PC-based, which software are you currently using?

DAT & Digital Input

Hello!

I bought the Hoontech Digital XG Gold Soundcard with a digital input in order to make records from my DAT.
I tried it for several times, using the digital input of my soundcard, but the result is really disappointing: the resulting wav-File on my harddisk doesn't have the same quality as on the DAT. The high frequencies are too much accentuated. I changed the sampling rate from 48 kHz to 44 kHz in order to burn an audio cd, but I think this shouldn't be the reason for the bad quality compared to the original DAT-record. Isn't it possible to make an 1:1-copy of the music stored on the DAT device? I also don't understand why the windows mixer has to be used for digital recordings.

Re: DAT & Digital Input

May be this helps. In control panel find multimedia, then in it "recording" , there'r some properties for it, choose "best" conversation rate for the second line (simply bring slider to right). If not, icq uin#1691211 and intercopkiller@yahoo.com

CD ripping

What process does a ripper use to rip audio off a Cd?
Can I also rip regular data? Thank you

Re: CD ripping

Sorry but you have to be more clear in grammar so we can reply you, for ripping regular data you have to read about creating ISO image articles in WEB.

need help!

I downloaded a demo of a remix software like a year or year and a half ago and had to reformat my drive. But now, I cannot find the software I was using. I would've bought it too. Anyway, all i remember was it had like one of the screens looked like a mad scientist lab with beakers or lightning rods or somehting and you could slow down or speed up the tempo and stuff and add other effects. It also had some sort of sequencer window and you could put cd audio into it and tweak it and midi, I think. I may have downloaded it from hitsquad. I don't remember. Thanks.

Re: need help!

It was a win 9X program

Re: need help!

If you supplied the operating system that might narrow it down.

mp3 converted to wave

what do i need to download to convert mps to wave?

Re: mp3 converted to wave

Totally irrelevant, but you share the same name as my favorite actress. :)

--Sarah

Re: mp3 converted to wave

Just download Winamp, and i the preferences there's Plug-ins, then choose Output, here simply choose "Nullsoft Disk Writer plug-in" so you can convert your mp3 into wav, simple method is this one, but if professional try out goldwaveicool edit,dart pro,pristine sounds,wavelab etc stuff.

Re: mp3 converted to wave

Hello Lisa, what you need is a MP3 DECODER. Find one in the <a href="/smm/cat/MP3/">MP3</a> or <a href="/smm/cat/FORMAT_CONVERTERS/">FORMAT CONVERTERS</a> section.

MP3 as E-Mail Attachment

When i try to upload a wave or mp3 file of a song i just finished, AOL tells me i can't send anything bigger than 16mb! Can any one help me!?

Re: MP3 as E-Mail Attachment

16MB should be enough for a 128Kbps MP3 that goes for around 15 minutes! Most emailboxes only allow you to send attachments of up to a certain size, usually around 5MB. This is to save bandwidth and stop emailbombers.

I don't use AOL so I can't really guess at what AOL does. But you're going to have problems like this if you email large files of any kind. Try uploading your file to a free web server and then let people download the file from there.

Mixing

Hello all. What is the best program to mix songs in wav format. I basically want to mix some parts onto others, blend some parts in and so on...any programs that can do this easily without getting majorly confused with certain features? DNote

need advice

I am looking for something portable, of simple material, which can completely block out sound if used to cover the source of the sound.
Any ideas?
TIA.

......

That would depend on a lot of things. Muting something completely is soo hard to do. It depends so much on what sort of sound source it is.. How loud it is... It's almost impossible to guess what you might be wanting to mute...

More information please..!
