This is a great website.....woohoo. Margot, checkout the pictures. Good music too.
Snow Joke....
Well the weather here this Saturday is still quite nice. Around +2 degs C. The meeotological God's expect a bit of snow later but they said that it would snow last night and it didn't. Why do they always sensationalize everything...OOOHHHH it's going to snow lots and the driving wll be treacherous!...when nothing happens, people feel like fools for cancelling their plans and it is like crying wolf....GET ANOTHER COMPUTER MODEL...THIS ONE IS BROKE!
West Coast in late June, (bring your long johns)....
We plan on driving out to Vancouver at the end of June, beginnig of July. We have to be there for July 3rd for Lois and Brett's 25th. We will have to make reservations at the hotel soon.....unless there is room in someone's stable? How come we have a guest room and no one else does???...except maybe Gary. We would like to stay for a week or so but we'll see how it goes. Be nice to get out to the Island.
Beatles in all formats (except 8 track)...
I took a seminar on Friday about transferring music from LP's to CD's. The course was in the afternoon and I was at the WCAM in the morning. There was a young man there who was about 20 and I told him about the course and he said..."So what are LP's??" Snotty little bugger. Boody hell! Anyhow, it is relatively easy to do. All you need is software to do it and a cable to connect and a turntable (with and amp) of course (line out of the amp (RCA) and line in to sound card (1/8th stereo) on the PC, usually blue coded) You have to record in '.wav' files or '.MP3' files (.MPs files are about 1/5th the size of .wav files). For software check out "LP recorder" @ WWW.cfbsoftware.com.au and for editing sheck out "goldwave" at www.goldwave.com. Upload song from record on 'LP recorder' then take it to 'Goldwave' and edit it for pos, crakles and trimming.
.Wav files are much better quality though, and once you put them on a CD you can delete them. They are big files and just take up space, so ya got em on a cd so dump em! Copy them to a CD and Viola! ici ton CD! Oh yes and the better the sound card the better the recording but the normal sound card that you have in your computer will work pretty well......And, Yeah if you got speakers you got a sound card. I could send you printed directions if mine are not precise enough. Goldwave is pretty spiffy....you can edit any music file with it.
Well, better go...oh yeah did you hear that Janet Jackson is whipping out another single soon! Keep on blogging!
