| 190919 | 2005-05-21 01:24:00 | Dear Misty Do you have any suggestions. And if I decide to buy the polderbit S, is there any way I can buy that in NZ and if so, how much. Cheers ramu Hi Ramu As far as I know you can only buy it through the internet. It is relatively expensive - though I have no regrets ! Using a converter the current price of US$35-99 works out at NZ$50-63. However - when you compare the cost with the purchase of two CD's then it is not really a lot. Buying through a secure connection on the internet has worked well for the number of things we have bought. You could try emailing them from their website. I did find that they answered really promptly (ie within 24 hours) and were helpful. cheers Misty :) |

| 190921 | 2005-05-21 10:17:00 | I use Total Recorder and recommend it - lots of options in both the format of the recording as well as scheduling etc. It will record anything that you can hear thru your speakers/headset. Can be found at http://www.HighCriteria.com One of the main things about Poldarbits is that it very easily breaks up your recording into separate tracks. It seems that to do this with "Total Recorder" that you need to buy the "Professional" version which is US$11-95 + US24 which in total = US$35-95 which is NZ$56-76. Even then, going on the wording, I am not truly sure that it will split by track. It does give a number of options, which seem a bit obscure. ....But then, I am probably a bit paranoid. Also, splitting into tracks, which is important to me, may be insignificant to others. Would be really interested to hear your experiences, juicytree ;) Misty |

| 190922 | 2005-05-21 10:45:00 | Audacity from http://audacity.sourceforge.net/ comes with easy to follow manuals. | Valerie (4740) | ||
| 190923 | 2005-05-21 13:37:00 | Valerie looks like a good program to me but unfortunately for me at least the download will not work for version 1.2.3, all I get is a 14kb file which opens and the protection on my computer says is viral, the zip alternate download comes in about the same size but winzip says it is not a valid file. I tried downloading from an alternate source but still got the same result. I have got version 1.2 though from another source maybe it will turn out to be the latest version. The sourceforge d/l seems to be corrupted in some way. Could you check that, it won't take long, if it is ok on your computer then the download will go on for more than a few seconds then you could stop if you don't want to mess around d/ling the whole file. I will check back to get confirmation that what I am saying is so. |

| 190925 | 2005-05-22 06:32:00 | I have got the program from elsewhere so no problem, disregard my previous post, thanks. | zqwerty (97) | ||
| 190926 | 2005-05-22 10:18:00 | Wanted to say that having played around with Audacity for about 10 hours, I am very pleased and if you want to clean up MP3's, ie get rid of overlong beginning silences or ends or mix in files, get rid of unwanted noises, also possible to zoom right in to the individual parts of the waveform and adjust cycle by cycle if you wish and much more then you will find this to be a useful addition. The recording ability is only one capability that the program has. | zqwerty (97) | ||
| 190927 | 2005-06-16 09:14:00 | So Ramu - what did you decide on in the end ? Misty :rolleyes: |
