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 John Niendorf Director, Foreign Language Media Center Purdue University Stanley Coulter Hall 220 6-2259 Return-Path: <[log in to unmask]> Received: from exchange.purdue.edu (1061exfe01.adpc.purdue.edu) by listserv.dartmouth.edu (LSMTP for Windows NT v1.1b) with SMTP id <[log in to unmask]>; Tue, 18 Oct 2005 12:33:02 -0400 Received: from EXCH01.purdue.lcl ([128.210.63.230]) by exchange.purdue.edu with Microsoft SMTPSVC(6.0.3790.211); Tue, 18 Oct 2005 11:33:00 -0500 X-MIMEOLE: Produced By Microsoft Exchange V6.5.7226.0 Content-class: urn:content-classes:message MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: multipart/alternative; boundary="----_=_NextPart_001_01C5D401.9BA26376" Subject: ADS Red Rover Remote Control Date: Tue, 18 Oct 2005 11:33:02 -0500 Message-ID: <[log in to unmask]> X-MS-Has-Attach: X-MS-TNEF-Correlator: Thread-Topic: ADS Red Rover Remote Control Thread-index: AcXUAZ9zdGHyBmqxQ+akiBiTEGfAnw== From: "Niendorf, John F" <[log in to unmask]> To: "Language Learning and Technology International Information Forum" <[log in to unmask]> Return-Path: [log in to unmask] X-OriginalArrivalTime: 18 Oct 2005 16:33:00.0883 (UTC) FILETIME=[9AE74230:01C5D401] This is a multi-part message in MIME format. ------_=_NextPart_001_01C5D401.9BA26376 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable Hello List, =20 We do a fairly large amount of recording and audio streaming.
