Hey Jack, Probably too late (I been away a few days:), but I cannot predict what our imaging will do on 5.1! Because of the ways 5.1 decodes info you may get...
Hey Professor, Jack, All good stuff in this thread. The only real message here is that in order to have what you want... you have to learn the medium, and in ...
Dear Crew, was trowling back thru the old list postings, and saw this "highball" for a "live sawmill show" to be held in May '07. At the time of the posting, a...
Dear Crew, Just about to take off to do a techsupport run to the other side of the Aussie continent, and thought I'd ask "...What's on the Workbench?" While...
Hey Professor, I have a scratch built blower/fan sound that I would 'contribute' to your industrial area scene if you like... its subtle, but convincing when...
Dear Modellers, Yeehah, back in Sydney after a hectic support mission to Perth, and I can't hear myself think for all the posts on the list! ;-) (I'm sincerely...
Hey professor, I hesitate to mention this, and am actually dubious about it anyway, but perhaps you might consider the Bose noise canceling headphones for your...
I picked up some surplus 16MB MP3 players for $5. I want to embed control signals that will be decoded to trigger layout animation components (lights, smoke,...
Dear TVC, Firstly, welcome to LayoutSound! Using "control tones" to drive various animations and lighting effects has indeed been discussed here previously,...
Dear Crew, Following on from Shortliner Jack's great find, does anyone happen to have pics of the prototype locations shown in the PDF? A few choice pics, +...
Hey Professor and TVC, Do we know what the resulting band width for the best mp3 compression is? This will dictate somewhat, what we have to work within, I...
Dear Jim, TVC, OK, without going TOO deeply into the tech specs.... WAV (PCM Uncompressed) audio is fairly simple to work out. It follows the "Nyquist...
Prof and Jim, thanks for your detailed comments. Point well taken that some specific examples would help, so here you go. You may be sorry you asked - most...
Dear TVC, OK, lets chew thru this one at a time... Comments inserted within your text Prof and Jim, thanks for your detailed comments. PROF: Glad to hear it...
Prof: Thanks again for your insight and it seems Nasty is indeed the best summary. I'm happy just to use these MP3 players as higher quality players over...
Dear TVC, I believe there ARE some engine-ears here onlist, (Pun well and truly intended!), that created a high quality digital audio player with control...
Hi Prof, Jim, TVC All fascinating and doable, and some of the scenarios are really neat...but it stikes me that irrespective of the "scale" of the modelling...
Hi TVC If you can forgo stereo and record your Sounds on one channel and telephone DTMF tones on the other this could be an easy option. I use Cool Edit (Sound...
Dear Graham, When you do that, could you please make a note about - what res you create the source WAV file at - what MP3 compressor you use to create the MP3...
In many cases the PL tone (PL is copyrighted; CTCSS is the generalized term – for Continuous Tone Controlled Squelch System) could be used as a continuous...
Dear Richard, I completely agree. I tend to build my layouts with a "1st person" perspective in mind, (layout height around 1550mm, viewing distance <2'), so...
Dear Prof Of course with your sense of humour, a bit of "shape memory wire" in one of the the dogs leg so as U apply a little current it leans slightly and...
Hi TVC and all who are in the thread Just tried a 15Khz Wav file at 44.1Khz sample rate on my MP4 player. Didn't like it, played back a lot of pops and...
Hey TVC, The usual suspects are indeed coming through for you (good show guys!). I just have a few thoughts to throw at it:)... I don't think the tone idea has...
Dear Graham, Sorry, to clarify, (Need to get my head round the procedure/"recipe"), - You created a 15Khz "control tone" in an audio generator/editing app, ...
Dear Jim, TVC, Jim, you may be onto something there! (Why am I not surprised? ;-) ). Given a ferrous (magnetically active) piece of "spring steel" wire, (or...
Atta boy Graham, Thank you for giving it a go. I think mixing imbedded tones in audio and mp3 compression, are fraught with danger:). Still think there's ...
Dear Jim, DTMF? See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dual-tone_multi-frequency The easiest way to "hear this" is to - make a call to someone, - warn them about...
Graham: you shamed me into doing some work :) 1. Imported song "Love Train" (the O'Jays) into editor. 2. Cleared the left channel to insert control tones. 3....
