Recorder came with a program "Voice Studio" but the program does not do very much other than transfer and convert files to wave format for the PC. Would like to add effects like reverb and mix tracks etc. Perhaps I am expecting too much. Can anyone offer any suggestions? Thanks: Jim |

Using a program like Audacity to add some reverb--would that help compensate some for the lack of range? Janie |

16 Dec 05 - 01:11 PM (#1628883) Subject: RE: Tech: Need music editing program From: jeffp Remember that a lot of the "resonance" you hear when you are singing is literally inside your head. You are also hearing the effects of the room in which you are singing. Note the difference between singing in a loaded closet versus a bathroom. Close-miking your voice will cut out most of the room effect, leaving you with just your unadorned voice. You will probably want to sweeten it with a touch of reverb and maybe a little delay to put back that resonance you hear when you sing. Generally, if you can hear the effect, it's too much. Try dialing it up until you notice it, then gently dial it back until it's no longer apparent. That will probably be about right. Jeff |

16 Dec 05 - 06:26 PM (#1629080) Subject: RE: Tech: Need music editing program From: HiHo_Silver I have downloaded Audacity and find that it works well. However, I cannot seem to get tracks in sync. Perhaps someone can advise me just how this is accompolished. Tried clicking on all sort of track allingment settings but just cannot seem to get them in line so that they play in sync. All help appreciated. Thanks: Jim |
