At Reed College we are currently running E-LangLab 10.2 software on Mac OS10.3.9. We are having a problem with the recording time at the student station (client). The green recording enabled light comes on early, while the narrator is still reading, causing a faint echo in the headphones as the sound from the headphone leaks into the mic. Furthermore the recording does not stay engaged for the duration that the green light is on, resulting in a recording that gets chopped off for the last second or so. I've played with all the parameters in E-LangLab itself, including lengthening/shortening the dead space, extending the pause time, etc... all to no avail. Unfortunately the software developers refuse any sort of assistance at this point because we have not paid the annual $1200 maintenance fee, which is another story. The bottom line is I need to get this software functional before the start of fall classes, so I can prove that it does in fact work, getting faculty to use it, and subsequently justify that annual maintenance fee, so that I can get assistance in making the software functional. As you can see, I'm in a bit of a catch 22 here. Any assistance on this matter would be most appreciated.
