Re: will I lose sound quality converting mp3s from 128kbps to...

Posted by Andy P on Wed, 06/20/2001 - 05:33.

Yes you will. As you reduce the encoding (dropping from 128 to 96), more information is
discarded, so the sound quality deteriorates. Once it's gone, it's gone, so converting
back to 128 fro 96 won't make them sound any better.

I personnaly consider 128 kbps the lowest setting for decent sound quality, although
even at this setting I can still tell the difference between MP3 and CD.

SoundBlaster Live! 5.1 series

Posted by fuzz on Tue, 06/19/2001 - 19:03.

I have a SoundBlaster Live!x-gamer 5.1....I need to know why my soundcard cant record the sound from just 1 individual track. It records all other tracks into the one that im recording to.....This really is horrible because I cant play guitar to music I cant hear...Please help

Re: SoundBlaster Live! 5.1 series

Posted by Trog on Thu, 06/21/2001 - 10:16.

Sorry I ain't a Soundblaster expert, but it sounds to me like you should open up the soundcard or windows mixer (in the Sys tray bottom right). Make sure the source has a tick (Mic or Line In) and try unchecking other boxes until it works ... Trog

i just bought a cd burner. would someone please tell me the basics of how to burn music onto a cd. also where do i go to get music and how to search for songs .. thanks very much!

Re: please help!

Posted by Lisa on Tue, 06/19/2001 - 22:37.

Shane, the burner should come with its own software. Maybe you should examine that first.

You've asked the kind of question people write books on. So I can't really hope to answer everything here.

You'll find CD Burning software <a href="http://www.hitsquad.com/smm/cat/CD_BURNERS/">here</a>. Popular downloads can be found on the <a href="http://www.hitsquad.com/smm/top20/">Top20</a> page. Nero is probably the best program out there for burning.

As for searching for songs, try <a href="http://www.mp3.com/"> for starters. There are also programs that will <a href="http://www.hitsquad.com/smm/cat/COLLECTING_CATALOGING/">help you find music</a>.

Also a good FAQ on <a href="http://www.mp3machine.com/news/493/">MP3Machine</a> is worth examining.

Re: Mini-disc to computer to burn a CD

Posted by SMM on Wed, 06/20/2001 - 06:04.

Any recording software that supports line-in recording should let you record from your stereo. Try <a href="/smm/programs/TotalRecorder/">Total Recorder</a> and the <a href="/smm/cat/AUDIO_RECORDING/">Audio Recording section</a> on this site..

Best mp3 mixer

CD Creator, issues, etc.

Posted by don beard on Tue, 06/19/2001 - 11:02.

Ok. I'm going absolutely nuts here and I just cannot figure out the problem.

Also I'm REALLY, and I mean REALLY new to tech problems and such so if I leave out important info just bonk me upside the head.

I don't think any system specs are really important, I'll just describe the issue I'm having what I've done etc.

First off I'm using a Matshita DVD-ROM SR 8583 in the D drive and a Philips CDD 3610 CDR/RW in the E drive. I'm currently using Adaptec Easy CD Creator.

Now, when I put a Audio CD or whatever in the D drive, it works fine. Sound comes out of the speakers, all is well.

In the E drive though, it's another problem. I get no sound out of the speakers but if I put a headphone jack in it up front, I can hear music through the headphones. I can't get anything through the speakers.

Also, here's the kicker. Sometimes when I put in an Audio CD in the E Drive, the Adaptec CD Creator program kicks off when it shouldn't. Sometimes when I put a Game in this drive the same thing happens. It's never consistent. Sometimes the CD Player comes up, sometimes the Game starts up, other times the CD Creator program starts, like it thinks the CD in there is a blank CD.

What I have done so far is disconnect all the cables to this drive and reconnect them securely. Didn't help. I'm wondering if I need to just clean the lens with some store bought CD Cleaner thing and see if that helps. There was a good amount of dust in my computer when I opened it up.

Thanks for any advise, I'll check back to this board often or if you could EMail me any thoughts that would be great.

Thanks ahead of time.

Re: CD Creator, issues, etc.

Posted by bruce on Tue, 06/19/2001 - 19:47.

Try this.

Open up your cd creator and go to the settings or options. look to see if there is something that says automaticly start when cd is inserted. if there is and there is a check mark in the box then uncheck it and either click apply or ok.

let me know if this works for you.

Bruce

Re: CD Creator, issues, etc.

Posted by Andy P on Tue, 06/19/2001 - 17:02.

First answer about sound not comming out of your speakers when you put a CD in the CD-RW is pretty easy to explain - you won't.

Most sound cards only have one input, and in most cases this is from the CD-ROM or DVD-ROM, so you can only play CD's from this drive.

As for Easy CD Creator's erratic behaviour, that's more difficult to pin down. As a first try, uninstall it and reinstall it,see if that makes any difference.

looking for a .cda editing software

Hi!
Will you please help me to find a software that will be able to convert tracks .cda to .wav?
I need to edit .cda in a .wav mode and then to burn them in a CD audio digital. Thanks a lot for your help
(You know, in Mexico there is no much help to this topics, so I´ll apreciate your comments)

Re: looking for a .cda editing software

Posted by SMM on Wed, 06/20/2001 - 06:00.

Head to the <a href="/smm/cat/CD_RIPPERS/">CD Rippers</a> section on this site. There you will find software that lets you record CDA files (or tracks) to WAV format. Make sure you have enough memory on your comnputer to store the WAV files as they will be very large..
