Caveat Emptor

Preumably the card issuer had a few problems getting the money back considering Camerabox went into liquidation on the 26th June.

If your recorder has a 128mb capacity it will fit comfortably on a CD several times when full. So you don’t need Audacity to record anything, although it might be needed for file conversion. Step 1 is to get the digital file from your recorder onto your computer. Not sure how to do this off han...

It is most likely that the digital recorder produces MP3 files so it should be easy to download the file(s) onto your PC exactly as you would your JPG/RAW files via a cable from your camera. MP3 files cannot usually be played as a music CD without conversion -see last para. Once these are in a fi...

If you select 'stereo mix' as the input device Audacity will record whatever is playing through your speakers OK I'll try that later. I forgot to comment on the File- Preferences as against Edit-Preferences (mine is definitely the latter) I'm at a loss what else to advise Thoramay. It would he...

As the file now exists on the PC I think Thoramay's getting a bit bogged down in the Mic/Mike problem that I think is now irrelevant. I'll sleep on it and check back in tomorrow. Night all Bernard

Thanks for staying with me. The file is MP3 format. The object of using audacity is to slim down the concert to 80 minutes to fit on a cd to be played on any machine. I understand that I need to save back to the hard drive as a WAV file. Is this correct? I am following instructions from a frien...

Thanks for staying with me. I understand that I need to save back to the hard drive as a WAV file. Is this correct? Almost. The correct term in Audacity is to export; you are moving one format (MP3) to another. I think the first thing to do is to download the latest version of Audacity. FWIW ...

Hi - I'm back Great news, you've loaded the file successfully. One option is to cut the file into 2 halves and save to 2 CD's. To do this position the cursor to about 1/2 way (at the end or start of a tune) then Edit-Select-Start to cursor to chose the first 1/2 or Edit-Select-Cursor to End to...

Shaky...Only, and only when you are in touching distance of your 80th birthday will you be able to grasp the complexities of old age versus technology. But!! thanks to the kindness and help I have received on this thread and being pointed in the right direction was I able to get there. and I am re...

I believe this will work. . .eventually. First step is to make sure you have the latest drivers. Click the big Windows button in the bottom left corner, then All Programs, and then on Windows Update in the expanded list that appears. A new window appears; first click check for updates on th...

OK, a quick return to the site you mentioned and I now have a way for you to obtain the 'original' MP3 files directly: 1. If you are not already using the Firefox browser download it. 2. Click Tools--> Add-Ons then search for 'Flashgot' 3. Install the Flashgot add-on and restart Firefox. 4. ...

Normally the Flasgot add-on grabs video clips encoded as flash; if you ever come across these the audio component only may be extracted/converted using the VLC media player I mentioned earlier. However, in the case of your Gaither site, the player application is written in flash (strictly Actions...

General chit chat

think lots of us do that Seem to recal a poll sometime back that confirmed it. On my K20 I have never used tav or P modes, most of my shots are static, so very rarely use Tv either. Perhaps I should get a discount ? after all I only use such a small percentage of the functions available. Dave...

Where would you like to revisit to get those fantastic shots?

By that I mean: where have you visited in the past and maybe taken some pictures that were either on a rubbish camera, or the wrong day, the wrong weather, wrong light or no light, wrong lens or just didn't turn out well when you got them home? Considering those places and having seen the first ...

I wanna go back to Dubai dammit :) btw - those pics look like they've been painted, although a bit too HDR'ish for me :) - I can see why you'd want to go back. I bet the local cemetery is a lot fuller too. :)

Where would you like to revisit to get those fantastic shots?

I also have spent a lot of time travelling the world and participating in some great outdoor activitieswhich is where my interest in photography started. Sadly I did not have a DSLR when I was at many of these places, although I also did not have any knowledge of photography then either. Places I wo...

Where would you like to revisit to get those fantastic shots?

I spent a long weekend in the Kruger National Park whilst I working in South Africa in 1977. I was armed with a Super-A and 50mm and 70-200mm lenses. Now if I could go back with some of the kit I have now . . .

The Zaire/Congo trip sounds very scary indeed. Must be lots of characters on that ferry - let's send Smeggy :shock: :) Interesting replies so far. Any specific locations/shots that people want to go back to in order to do it properly?

Where would you like to revisit to get those fantastic shots?

Oh, lots of places I'd like to revisit with my camera! Like Frogfish I'd like to go back to the Indonesian islands. I've done the Bali/Komodo/Flores trip, would love to do that again but with my camera and an underwater housing. I'd probably skip Komodo this time, the dragons are amazing but IMO ...
