Two of the most popular lines of Mac compatible voice recorders are Olympus and Philips. These devices are digital audio recorders that records sound via flash memory and can convert it to WAV files or MP3 files for PC computer use. (You can use a USB port for fast communication) In years passed, the only operating system that supported this type of compression and transfer was Windows. Therefore, news of the Macintosh compatible digital voice recorder and Mac-compatible software like the high compression DSS Player (Digital Speech Standard) were exciting to Apple fans.

Recording at Home Using a Computer or Hard Disc Recorder

Thursday, December 31st, 2009

Probably the first thing you want to think about before you start spending any money on getting a home recording facility together is, why do I want to record at home?


You probably already know the reason, but the clearer you are about this the better your results will be.


Do you want to just pick up your guitar on a whim and record the latest idea that’s passing by? Do you intend to record an album in its entirety at home and release it? Do you want to make podcasts to broadcast on the web? Do you want to ‘flesh out’ your musical ideas to get an idea of how the final product might sound. All are valid reasons for having your own home recording setup. Each one also suggests a particular amount of money you will need to spend to get the result you desire, and the amount of effort you need to expend making it happen.


What you will need.


From a basic standpoint you will need some way to record your performance or ideas – this could be into a Personal Computer[PC] or mac or onto a stand alone recorder. You’ll also need someway of getting the performance into the recording medium – whether that be via microphone or a piano keyboard. You will also need to find some way to ‘deliver’ your product – via mp3 mix/cd or podcast. All factors to consider as you set up you home studio.


What is best; Computer recording or stand alone?


I will confess that in my opinion and experience, the simplest and most effective way to record anything at home is with a stand alone recorder. Several years ago I recorded an entire album using Fostex DMT8, 8 tracks to do the lot- including backing vocals guitars and eveything. To those of you unfamiliar with what I mean by stand alone recorder then have a look at units from Fostex, Yamaha, Roland and others. In general they have a built in hard drive or media card which records data that you produce as a result of recording yourself. This can be as simple as engaging a ‘record’ button and playing or singing. There’s no fuss involved with this. Some of them also allow you to burn a CD at the end of the process so you can amaze your friends! There can be disadvantages as I will discuss later, but depending on your final aims as discussed earlier, you will make allowances for any shortcomings.


Recording onto a pc or Mac takes us into a more complex word, so if you’re not computer savy, or prepared to enagage in a long and sometimes frustrating journey I’d go with the stand alone unit.


Why is it more difficult to record into a PC?


Recoding into a PC has a minimum of 3 steps:


Input device-microphone/keyboard/turntable

Sound card-converts your ‘real world’ sound into computer language.

Recording software-does the job of ‘capturing’ your performance.


Once you have got your recording chain set up then it ‘can’ be as easy as using a stand alone unit, but to get to that point you have to deal with a number of factors-the #1 bugbear of most home computer recording nuts is a friendly tike called ‘latency’ .


Latency: ‘ something that is revealed later’.


For those not in the know, latency can be compared to hearing your voice echoing back from a canyon, heloooo-hellllllloooo. There is a gap between when you yell and when you hear your voice returned. If you plug in a microphone and set up your recording software and say the ubiquitous ‘hello’ you will get a similar effect!


Unless you invest in a super high end recording system such as ‘Pro Tools HD’, then this is something you need to work with as a home computer recording afficionado.


The reason we encounter latency is that the computer needs time to convert the analogue [physcal sounds via electrcity] into digital data; ones and noughts. With a good sound card this can take between 7 and 15 milliseconds [ yep that's 15 thousandenths of a second] and then about the same number of milliseconds to convert it from a digital signal back into an electrical analogue sytem that we can usefully use to hear the sound coming out of the computer. Bare in mind that our ear ‘notices’ a sound as an echo at around the 50 millisecond mark [ more on this later] – so if we have a sound card with 25millisecond [ms] input delay and 25 ms output delay then our ear wil perceive it as an echo- not much good to play along with as we will be out of time.


That’s pretty useless you might shriek, so how do people manage to do all this computer recording stuff at home? A-ha. Those clever people who make sound cards m-audio, Presonus, Yamaha etc have done something very clever, they instigated a process called ‘direct monitoring’.


Direct monitoring allows us to hear the incoming sound at its source- straight after you have plugged it in- instead of through the computer where you will pick up a substantive delay. You can still listen ‘though the computer’ if you choose, but in my experience it’s pretty distracting especially with large latency times. The other thing that your clever software program/soundcard combo will do is to record your new track in time with the others by making allowances for the current latency times.


In summary; For ease of use and less technology hassles get a stand alone hard disk recorder. For more complex productions consider getting a computer/soundcard/software combo, but be prepared for a sharp learning curve.

Why not create your resume by screen recorder?

Thursday, December 31st, 2009

This is a new inspiration to discover yourself with digital screen recording technology, making yourself closely keep in touch with people all over the world.

It is how wonder begins

 A friend of mine has been searching for his next new job for 2 months but still drew a blank. Yesterday when he was making an online video chat with me to complain about the injustice distracted him; I noticed that he was not as poor as he looked in front of webcam. An idea jumped into my mind so I told him: “You look pretty smart and energetic through camera, why not trying introducing yourself through it?”

It seemed that my words stoke him to grow up some tips. He continued my topic with more interesting thoughts: “I found there were few clicks on my resume, so is there any idea to get it over?”

After 10 seconds in silence, our mind swung as one to a new concept: personal  screen recording resume.

Can screen recording resume really qualify?

Well, at first do not mention the possibility this new born phrase works. Since the population of online streaming media and development of screen recording technology, people have blurted out many novelties to share new ideas and represent themselves. In that way, why not attempting some new stuff when hunting a job?

I’m not joking, ruminating over this topic there does are many pros compared with traditional format of resume:

The interviewers sifting through resume often do a rapid scan over thousands of copies with same format. The new form containing screen recording video will add extra points to resume and gain more attention to interviewers. While finding proper resume, the interviewers will browse the information in some detail, but might still omit important some news. On the contrary, the  screen recording resume offers all of your information to them in a passive way which is more like to be obsessive reception imperceptibly. The newly-styled resume presents a face-to-face communication rather than a single piece of cold paper. You have plenty ways of representations in visual self introduction to earn enough points to conquer the interviewers, making yourself more actual and easy-going.

How can screen recorder realize that?

You might aroused much in interest, however, it’s still a little bit iffy and out of regular concept since people never take venture of attempting screen recording video as their resumes (so do my friend and me at first). In that way let’s do example to declare the fresh experience you can get.

In our ideation, this video should be made up by 3 parts: basic intro, individual representation and interactive communication, opening up to viewers a fresh-new and comprehensive cognition of demonstrator step by step, leaving a deep and perfect impression to your future leaders.

A screen recording with full voice is highly recommended since most of resumes contain texts and texts. On the other hand, audio resume can easily motivate readers’ motions and hold their attentions, altering the traditional turn of expression in which interviewers have to obtain info by reading applications themselves.

Basic introduction

In basic introduction, you can take advantage of all the space available to clearly present your contact information as well as education and notable achievements to keep interviewers oriented. With screen recorder software you can add some square boxes as a checkmark for the certain part of your resume, or set motion tracks of mouse as navigation between paragraphs. A recent photo of yourself will be highlight of this part, making your resume vivid and true to life.

Individual representation

As we all know, the main body of resume is branch point to evaluate the level of individuals, so the representation part will be the most important section which should be embellished and decorated in priority with full use of screen recorder software. For example, you can use zoom function to emphasize on one valuable working experience in professional experience section. To capture reviewers’ attention, you can add panning action to move the screen from one paragraph to another, guiding your reader to double check what kind of education or training you received and how they enhance your ability during your work.

Interactive communication

Have you ever thinking of turning your resume from a dull paper to viewtiful screencast? It’s the show time customizing your screen recording resume with more interactive elements and features. In screen recorders there’s many functions allow you to insert image, create animation and set various actions for every mouse click.

Supposing that a picture of championship of national mechanical design tournament jumps into the view, or an animated sparking banner displays the three-year training in Business Administration of Harvard. While the reviewers are enjoying your creative video recording resume, a big button appears to remind him to login your blog to grasp more news of yours. Who else can dare to be the ideal applicant except you? All achievements above are just with the help of outstanding screen recording software to gain.

The story of screen recording doesn’t end up

One week later, I receive a call from my friend, the man nearly got crazy about seeking a job. He tells me that he obtains offer from the company he’s been looking forward to it. We talk a lot about our fantastic but also funny idea of making resume simply by screen recorder on computer. No one will believe such kind of crazy thing unless he gives a bold attempt, and then finds out how great this originality is.

The same situation could apply to a scientist who might get a thought and want to remind his or herself of the idea later on.

A realtor, attorney, or doctor might want to record the conversation with a client, or new prospect, with the other person’s permission, of course. The audio recorder can be very helpful in this situation as well. Or perhaps a college student wants to bring this type of device to a class or lecture where they will be able to capture every word the professor says for studying reasons later on. There are a variety of uses for the audio recorder. 

If you exercise, you will know that it is hard to look at a picture and try to do the particular move at the same time.   With this recorder you can describe the move in your own words slowly and then perform the exercise.

These beauties operate on one “AAA” battery and the unit only weighs two ounces.

Of course whichever audio recorder you select, will feature a built-in microphone and speaker, as well as a jack for an external microphone or speaker. These can even be used to hook up to a telephone for recording a conversation, with the other person’s permission, of course. Then there’s the built-in clock which can register the recording time.
