Re: Is the Amadeus file format compressed?

IMHO, that would be great that the Amadeus format uses for example the FLAC compression (or another one) to save the tracks. That would save place on disk (or perhaps compression is already used). The last thing you want is compression while you are working on a file. This would result in compressi...

On the subject on meters, you might be interested in ProLevel: http://www.katsurashareware.com/pgs/prolevel.html This provides a configurable meter reading the input which runs in parallel with your recording program such as APro. It shows peak and RMS, and you can adjust the peak hold display. It c...

Topic: track info on CDs

Views: 8491

Audio CDs don't have any official way of carrying track names etc. When you insert one while iTunes is running, the information is fetched from the Gracenote database - of course this only covers commercial CDs, not home-made ones, so I'm afraid there's no workaround for that. I said 'official' beca...

Re: What happens to the markers after export was my question

What happens to the markers after export was my question, meaning will those marker be recognized externally in an audio program, say for the ability to rewind or fast forward using the markers from AMP. If you save as AIFF the markers will be retained and appear in other programs. QuickTime player...

Re: What can markers be used for? I want to know if they act

I want to know if they act as markers that I can use to create a track where if I rewind it will rewind marker by marker instead of just to the beginning or just to the end? In APro, Command-left arrow will take you to the next marker back from the insertion point, Command-right arrow to the next m...

The Sound Soap VST plug-in crashes AII under 10.3.9 - this is a long-standing bug. The Audio Unit version is quite stable, so with luck it should work under Leopard.

ProLevel is a small application which runs an input level meter at the same time as your recording program (without interfering with it). It costs $20 and requires 10.4.x.

I'ts difficult to descibe the difference in simple language, but I'll try: Sound is converted into electrical currents: doubling the intensity of the sound doubles the electrical level. A simple metering system just shows the levels in this way: so if you doubled the electrical level, and then doubl...

Re: So how much db Amadeus Pro shows in

Ah, so.... should have no worry about that? Confused a little. The sound is the same, it's just that the display looks different. A 'linear' display (equal spacing for equal voltage changes) will show 6dB about halfway down the scale (-6dB is half the voltage): a 'logarithmic' display (equal spacin...

Same thing here: G4 iBook running 10.4.9. APro 1.2 refused to open MP3s; made the entry in the Terminal as instructed above, now OK.
