John,
We also used to do analogue recording before and it was a real pain for teachers
to balance the different sources of the recording and the editing.
They are now happily recording their material on their own staff PCs with
Audacity but the quality is not always great for their machines  re not equipped
with a proper sound card. I generally check the quality and do a bit of editing
(volume, equaliser, noise reduction, etc..) with Soundforge before uploading
their files on the server. I am about to start using Audition too - for we have
purchased it as part as a bundle -, but I am perfectly happy with the former
(except from the fact that it does not save CD audio format and has problems
saving wav files too but I haven't followed that up with the vendor - my fault -
and I use Audacity to save wav files).
Hope this helps  :-)

Subject: #8043 Audio Recording

Hello List,

 

We do a fairly large amount of recording and audio streaming.

We have a small studio that is pretty much sound proof.  We have a couple of
microphones in the booth that connect to a mixing console with a reel to reel
tape and a cassette recorder.  We have been digitizing the cassettes using a
tape player connected to a PC.

 

Recently we tried using a hand held digital voice recorder and that worked well
for the people we recorded.  It didn't work well from my point of view in that I
had to make numerous adjustments to the volume as well as remove some echo from
the wma files.  

 

I would like to be able to adjust the sound inputs before/during recording and
then take the digital file and edit it on the computer; avoiding the tedious
process of digitizing the cassette tape all together.

 

Does anyone know much about or have an opinion on:

1.	ADS Red Rover - Remote Control and
2.	Adobe Audition
3.	Syntrillium Cool Edit Pro 2.0
4.	Cakewalk SONAR Studio
5.	Producer Edition 4.0.2

 

 

 

Thank you,

 

John
