Are direct bit-rate converters possible for Ogg Vorbis? Or do they already exist? Even more, is it possible to directly convert MP3/ATRAC3 (i.e., Sony Minidisc) encoding to and from Ogg Vorbis? There has been an earlier discussion on this question. But this discussion centered around the fact that people couldn't see the point, and were rather hostile to the idea. There is a very good reason to want this. I can best illustrate this with an example c...

>Fromwhat you describe, your comp/limiter can't possibly be working correctly. It should be the last unit in line before the sound card, and needs to be adjusted properly. You also need to balance the levels on your mixing board (so that the correc t level comes at predictable place on the slider). It might be worthwhile to find someone with some sound-mixing or radio engineering experience

Hi! I've seen many new standards on the Xiph page. Have you thought about creating something like "OggDisk", that would correspond to CD, DVD, BD... disks? I mean data structure (propably on any filesystem) that could be used for audio and video (and perhaps for images too?). Desired features: - Ogg centric - designed to be filesystem/disk type independant (so that you can use

Hi, I've want to syncronise between Solaris and my MiniDisc, the application database relating to wether SonicStage is inaccurate at best (unreliable because some replies says it works, whilst others say no). Anyone got any experience syncronising a Sony MZ-RH1, SonicStage 4.3 and wine? (unless there is a native solution) Matt -------------- next part ---...

the ACG function that the compressor provides is limited at best. its adjustment is way too audible to make full use of it in balancing levels. yes, it is last in the chain. i'm just wondering if there's anything out there in the way of software. if a minidisc recorder can do it, why can't a $1000 pc? -p > From: "William Goldsmith" <wildbill@kpig.com> > Reply-To: icecast@xiph.org > Date: Wed, 14 Nov 2001 08:36:36 -0800 > To: <icecast@xiph.org> > Subject: Re: [icecast] automatic gain control > > From what...

It won't be long until big labels attempt to eliminate the digital ins and outs of equipment. The problem they face is most people that currently use a rack system featuring digital interconnects will NEVER revert to an analog only system. I know that I won't! Think back to VHS, BetaMax, SVHS and LaserDisc. VHS has incredible market share because its licensing is open. Betamax was

Hi Adam, Thanks for your responce. I was planning on doing both, the encoding and serving, form the same machine, and I'm not sure I see any stability gains by splitting it up. Understand having, for example, a file server and mail server on different machines, so if one goes down you can still use the other. But in this case, one service depends on the other (the server has nothing to

Wow! Ogg is sounding _really_ fine these days. Waaaay past my ability to tell from CD on my crappy sound card, even at pretty low bitrates. Which leads to my question: there's a huge difference between what my sound card puts out and what my CD player can do (Rotel RCD-950 to Classe' Audio Twenty preamp to Acurus A80 amp to Epos ES-12 speakers, in case anyone cares). If my computer is

First of all, I am not aware of any official source of FLAC files that provide MP3 sourced data. I meticulously check the music I purchase, especially when it is 24/48 or 24/96 material, because this is new technology, and sometimes people get it wrong. However, you should be aware that many modern producers use software to create their music, and when the software stores sound clips in

Well, when I was shopping for a MiniDisc player (not as a primary format), there were many with optical input, but only the professional rack mount MD from SONY has optical output. Thankfully, it also had coaxial digital, which is sometimes more convenient. I'm actually in the market for a FLAC player, but don't really kno...

I'm after the cheapest way to decode a flac stream with following criteria; - Transport from UPnP (DNLA) NAS using either WiFi or Cat5 networking - Toslink digital out for using existing HiFi DAC. - Low power consuption (eg just few Watts - it's just a decoder anyway). There seems a real lack of Flac players that are cheap and HiFi separates integratable like current-day CD players. All
