1998 Archive of Music Software Discussion & Help Page

Are you sure that you have the right address? When I enter it in, Netscape comes up saying can't locate the server home1.2.sbbs.se.

: go here: http://home1.2.sbbs.se/jsl/index.htm#S

: has every converter you can think of...looks like you could use the mp3compr09f.exe

Please mail me the converter wav to mp3.

I reply to the person who replied to: desperately seeking WAV to MP3 Converter.
The webpage you reffered to doesn't exist, do you know if there's another page like that one or if it has just changed URL?

search on www.elsitio.com.ar

: I need to upload music files to a website and my wavs are 35 - 56 meg in size - I either need a way to compress them or convert them into a format that will compress them!

CDRWIN 3.8 BURNS MP3 TO AUDIO EMAIL ME FOR FURTHER ASSISTANCE...LEAPYLEE

I have an audio equipment TASCAM DA-30 (60hz, 34W), but I lost its manual and its specifications. I know it is an "ancient" equipment, but it is very important to me to have these items anyway.

I will be glad if you may send me by e-mail: lfbfonseca@bol.com.br.

I am looking forward your answer,

Thak You a lot,

Luiz Felipe Fonseca

I also need the code if get it or have it can you plaese send to me at yandolino@hartford.edu....please thanks

: I need the regisration code for the fruity loops website.
: Thank you,

Answer One:(MiniDisc)
MO Recording
MiniDisc equipments record audio data onto discs using MO technology Magneto Optical. The process involves laser headheating up the recording spot while the recording headuses positive and negative magnetic signals to write audio data paterns. As the disc moves away,
new spots are recorded by the magnetic recording head, while the already recorded spots cool down retaining the magnetic signals. All these complicated processes require no physical contacts between the laser/recording heads and the disc itself.
The disc does not wear out even with repeating writings. With that, the MiniDiscs can be recorded up to at least 1 million times or more. Only time can prove this statement.
Just like a computer's hard drive, the audio data is recorded in fragments and scattered (efficiently by the recorder) inside the disc for fast retrievals and editing. The recording method is called Non-Linear recording, differing from tape's Linear recording in which the audio data is recorded sequentially.
With the MO technology tracks can be divided, combined, deleted, and moved within the disc.
Other information such as recorded time, disc name, and track title can also be stored and edited.

ATRAC Compression
Unlike Compact Discs, in which the audio data is stored without compression, MiniDiscs use ATRAC technology-Adaptive Transform Acoustic Coding to compress
audio data in 1:5 ratio. As a result, it can to record as much as a CD (74 min stereo / 148 min mono) or more (80 min discs are now available) with the same sampling frequency (44.1 kHz) in a much smaller disc. The advantage of ATRAC, however, is that the compression method
incorperates a noise reduction system that eliminates noises and inaudible frequencies and only records data audible to human ears. The Sampling Rate Convertors inside the MiniDisc recorders automatically convert 48 and 32 kHz frequencies to 44.1 kHz
during recording to ensure the best quality of sound.

CD-A or CD-DA to MiniDisc recording, is a fine line. MiniDisc although has more to offer and "IS" the future evolution of musical editing. Gone are the day's of my 8-Track, soon to be CD-A App's as well.
To envoke even more fear into your heart, now there is DVD-A Or DVD-Audio and Super Audio Compact Disc (SACD) With Both formats targeting sonic perfectionists with using high resolution, increasing the dynamic and frequency ranges.
The SCAD uses a 1-bit system that encodes an input signal at 2,822,400 samples per second (or 2,882.4kHz)While DVD-A improves on what the CD approach was with Pulse Code Modulation (PCM) encoding. Which i think DVD-A is still round the regular 44.1kHz...but i could be wrong.

Answer Two:
There is numerous software out there for "de-noising" of tracks. It all depends on personal preference and application purposes. For instance running a track through a sequencer applying a "his hum removal" might due for one track yet a auto-calibrated frequency gate for nasty fluctuations in record "pop's" might be necessary. I suggest picking up a copy of the magazine "Computer Music" to fully explore your avenues and to discover the full dynamics of what you want in regards to "de-noising" for there's a vast sea of products out there.

Answer Three:
Mp3 and CD-A's Both run at the same kHz (or should) if not try altering the SPS's.
I know there is an answer for this, i;ve read it somewhere.
Do you want this to occur simultaneously? Otherwize i think you might have to play areound with the current file formats....
Sorry....

: Three questions:
: 1. Can anyone tell me the difference (if any) between the format used for Mini Discs and CD-A?
: 2. IS there any software that will allow vinyl tracks recorded to disk that can be 'de-noised' without loosing too much effect.
: 3. Is there any way at all of creating an on disc decoder as track 1 read from the root header that will allow mp3 files to be read and played on a CD-A player. I know the answer is no but maybe someone can think on this at least.
