: I've found (by chance) that renaming the files as ".mp3" does the trick. I just renamed one file and played it on the WM Player and it did work. It was an audio book. Dunno about the quality of music stuff, but I guess it's worth trying.

Hello,
I just wanted to say that if you take out bilingual classes out then you will be taking people's freedoms away. I am Mexican and was in bilingual classes for a while and when I started all english in 8th grade it was hard for me.
But now people want to take away bilingual classes to make it harder on non english speaking children. If they don't know atleast a bit of english they will fail year after year. I would hate to see kids go without being able to learn more of their native language. It will be a complete mess. I understand that it will work for kids who are stuck in bilingual classes and being very good at english . But why take away bilingual classes when kids will not do good in all english classes?
You can vote to take them away but when thing start going wrong (if it is passes) then just think that it might of been partly your fault for not thinking about other people who don't know english.
If you vote to keep it then i will be eternally greatefull. If you are an english speaker only then I understant that you might not want bilingual classes but please think of others. Especually for those who don't know a bit of english.
You may know english and say that it doesn't matter to you, but at the end it will because you will be with kids who dont understand a word you say. This will affect someone either way,but mostly if bilingual classes are taken away. Just put it to the test. It will be bad.
Just think before you choose. And hopefully i hope that i touched you a bit. Because i know how it is by going from bilingual to just english. And also think of how it would be if you went to a place were you don't know their lenguage. Don't you think you would hate it? I getting ride of bilingual classes just a way to get ride of imigrants? if it is, it is a bad way.

Fun to have you back dude.

Download and install a file-sharing program.

: Nero came installed on my computer as well as Windows XP...All I'v done is copy cd's so far. Does anyone have a simple step one, two, three how to get a song like Double Shot, Anytime At All, Be There?

: : I hear of cd's that hold several dozen songs in MP3 format. I've heard you could get 80 to 100 songs actually. How is this done. Or is this a confusion between cd-r and a dedicated MP3 player??
: I would also like to know how this is done. Thanks for any help in advance. Gene

Yes, it's quite easy. You should be able to fit over 100 MP3s, encoded at 128kbps, on a CD. Burn as a data CD. However, it will only play in your CD drive on your PC (some DVD players too). You can also play these MP3s on your MP3 player, depending on how much RAMyou have to store the songs.

If you want to burn a CD that plays in a stereo system etc - then you have to burn an audio CD. I use Nero for this. You will only get 80 minutes of music at most on this kind of disc.

Gina,

If you want commercial music, either go and buy it or run some spy ware like Kazarr or Morpheus and get it that way.

This is not an email service in any respect but a forum of sorts that deal with peoples music issue. Posting 'Please reply to my email' is outside of forum etiquette (ANYWHERE) so please learn a little respect for the future..

Regards

: i wants to know how to record vhs to vcd.if you know any kind of softwear please let me know. thank's

Software is only part of what you will need. What computer do you have?

If its a Mac (hey, it's all I know) then plug the VCR's output to a video and audio input on the mac. I have done this myself using a Digital video camera (as receiving analogue information from the VCR) and then the output of the camera to a Firewire input on the Mac. If you don't have a firewire input and something to convert the information from a VCR to digital for the computer, then you will need to buy a video import card that can compress video in real time. Run something like iMovie and import the footage. Edit it if need be.

Go to export and export for VCD in either PAL or NTSC. Once the file is exported, run Toast and then press Burn VCD. Insert the disk to be burnt and the go and make some lunch

This is how I would do it. If you use a Windows box, then it could be a different experience, I don't know. The idea is the same though. Import the video to digital information. Use a program that converts and burns a CD to a VCD, (many of the main CD burning programs must do this now).

try checking your sampling rates.

The only one I have payed any attention to is Raygun

from Arboretum systems. There are more than likely others but Arbotetum have made some of the most impressive effects for the Mac for some years now..

Perhaps it's an issue of the BPM. I know that Logic Fun, Cubasis, and other multitrack programs can do odd things to arrangements if there are BPM adjustments. On many such programs, changing the BPM after an audio file is loaded shortens or lengthens the audio file(s) or changes their speed. Other times the timing is corrupted by quantization or grid settings.

This is an aside, but 44.1 doesn't cope too well with metric rhythm. 44.1 doesn't divide evenly into most meters at many BPMs. Interestingly, 96 and 48 kHz does a bit better. When you think about PPQ (MIDI pulses per quarter note) and the like, it makes sense that more advanced MIDI timing systems use numbers like 1440 as clock pulses. 1440 is evenly divisible by 1,2,3,4,5,6,8,9,10,12,16,32,60, and 96 to name a few integers.

In fact, 1440 is a useful number in all kinds of memory and timing math.
This is not so much an issue for you, probably. But if your sequencer is trying to split up 44100 samples per second into corresponding quantities of notes in a musical measure, it could account for a little bit of the timing errors.

Another possible issue is if you are confusing mono and stereo files.
On a few programs, a stereo file read as a mono file has a difference in speed.
Similar errors can happen if a 16bit program reads a 20, 24, or 32 bit file.
I have intentionally induced some of these errors via experimentation using SoundHack on the mac.

If you are meddling with REX files, I can only imagine how tricky it gets.
REX files are designed to have stretchy BPMs and durations and speeds, so watch out if you are mixing REX files and other file formats.

What your doing makes more sense to me now. I still can't figure out the issue though. If the song works BEFORE you save it, then you could at least record the audio output from the computer and call that the song file. Not a solution but a temporary fix..

Best of luck

Should work. Tell her to drag the file onto Quicktime's icon and see if that works. If not, the file has been corrupted. If she doesn't have a Quicktime Alias (she should know what this is) on the desktop, then it's recommended. If she is using OSX, then the Quicktime Alias will be in the Dock.

I have lost count of the amount of Mp3 files I have received from both Mac and Window Box owners and I have only ever had one problem.

: I have many midi files tv series, and when i buyed mi casoi with disket and midi i had the porpouse of playing the midis in the casio but when i put the midis to play the casio keyboard said ''NOT SMOF''( NOT STANDARD MIDI FILE), is there any program or way to convert this midi fiel to a smf??

Go here and download the converter program:

I find it works well.

Media Player is massaging the back of the music industry to the point that they end up restricting you from doing what you want with your 'own music' on the premise that it 'might' be someone elses and your stealing it.

Walk hand in hand with corporations like MS and the Music industry and get stung every time..

Use an open protocol like Mp3 and be done with it. There are tons of encoders out there and available on this site for download.

If your computer has a SP/DIF input on the sound/audiocard and the Roland has an SP/DIF output, then gain yourself some recording software from this site and record the music straight from the Multitracker in the digital domain. You'll lose no quality.

Rimmer.

p.s. don't use software you expected to use without serious question.. Sad world...

Do you mean, how do I copy a CD to another CD?

What software do you have for burning CD's?

That software will either allow you to copy from CD drive to CD drive or from one CD drive (being the burner) to the same CD drive. The last option is manually ripping an image of a CD and then burning it to a blank CD.

To be honest, CDRW burning software these days takes all the thinking out of it for you. If you using a Mac, then use Roxio's Toast... It's simple to use and will burn anything from Data CD's to Video CD's and DVD's
