Zen Neeon direct record in WAV form

Hi everyone,
I'm looking at buying the Zen Neeon 2. I want to use the Direct Recording to record straight from, say a CD player into the Neeon. But I want to record in WAV format at 6 bit, 44.k (full CD quality). I've read through the manual and it's not clear.
Does anyone out there know that it will defintely reord direct in full quality WAV format?
Thanks, I'd appreciate any help.

... thanks.
I'll use it for rough mixes in my studio. I'm getting used to the idea of mixing it then naming it and tarnsfering it in wav format via usb.
Thanks again

  • Can't see wave form after recording...

    After I record audio, the wave form (view) goes flat line like I recorded silence. It still plays the audio, but I cant see it to edit it.
    How do I see it again?

    In all likelihood you have the recording delay setting,  set to something other than zero......
    no waveform

  • Zen neeon recording and USB ca

    . I want to record tapes onto my zen neeon but it keeps using up loads of battery so that Im only able to record a few tapes before my zen battery dies. i was wondering if i can plug my zen into its usb cable to charge it at the same time as recording? but on the screen when Im recording it says "no USB cable/ unplug USB" and there is the word USB with a line through it. does this mean that i shouldnt plug in the USB while Im recording?
    2. Also I bought a travel adapter, not from creative, just a normal adapter that you plug into the wall, and then you plug the USB cable with the zen into this. but it doesnt seem to be working, it doesnt charge my zen. and everytime i plug this in, the zen turns on by itself, even if its been locked. can anyone help? i suppose i will have to buy a creative adapter...
    cheers

    . Even if you connect with USB (trough a pc) you can't do any action on your zen. It has been always like that, and it won't change.
    2. Only creative products wil work properly with creative material.
    See it as tuning a car. You bought a BMW but you can't change the frontbumper by one of audi... Get it's

  • Release date for Zen Neeon in

    Hello,
    I'm considering my first MP3 player. Had a mini disk up till now still in fine working order, but I'm getting sucked into the idea of cute wee players holding my entire record collection (or at least the ones I still want to listen to!) I really like the look of the Zen Neeon, with it's line in recording, and recording off radio. I don't imagine the voice recording bit will be up to recording my guitar playing as I do with my mini disk but I'm hoping I'll be able to at least transfer songs from mini disk and Home Studio onto it. haven't decided whether the 2 mb flash player or the 5gb hard dri've but in anycase it's not out in the shops yet. Anyone know what the release date is?

    I would guess at this point it's unlikely the Neeon will be sold directly in Europe. You might find it on eBay if you are desperate, but you are very unlikely to have any form of warranty. The Neeon isn't getting rave reviews though it seems.

  • Zen Neeon questi

    Hi. I've got some questions about the Zen Neeon. Hope existing users can help me.
    ) Does the Zen Neon appear as an external hard dri've? Is it possible to just transfer files directly to the player like a thumbdri've without any additional software?
    2) Does the Zen Neon record files to wav or mp3 format?
    3) How is the recording quality of the Zen Neon like? is it good enough to record in a lecture theatre?

    yusuke,
    . Yes the Zen Neeon function just like the other MuVo series using UMS(Mass storage) so you can just plug it in and use your Windows Explorer to transfer the files to the player. But if you wish to create playlist, then you will need to use the bundled software to do so.
    2. It can record both in Wav(32kbps) and MP3(96kbps, 28kbps and 60kbps).
    3. The player builtin microphone are cater more for personal close range recording. Gi'ven the big size of a lecture hall, the result might not be as good.

  • ZEN NEEON 6GB - SNR changed to 98

    Recently, Creative had added a 6GB Zen Neeon to their Mp3-player segment. I noticed that the Signal-to-Noise Ratio of this new player has changed from 90 dB to 98 db! Is this a fault on the new specifications page, or was this intended? (so, the new Zeeon has a new sound chip in it or something?)
    My questions to Creative:
    Is the SNR of the Zen Neeon really 98 db?</LI>
    Is the new 6GB Zen Neeon still laggy as the Neeon 5GB in menus, or less laggy?</LI>
    Thank you for your reply!

    Does the player turn on, or doesn't it respond at all? Was the battery run down all the way?
    Regarding your e-mail, did you use the form on the website, and did get an auto-response back? You should always get an automated e-mail back with some tips, if they don't help, check over the e-mail as you generally need to reply to that to let them know, so someone will deal with you directly.

  • Zen Neeon 6GB (USB Probl

    Hi,
    I bought a zen neeon 6gb a few days ago. There were no problems at first but now.......
    When I plug it into my laptop, it's as if nothing was plug in!
    Same thing when I used the desktop in my office, I've changed another usb cable, I've pushed the reset button & nothing seems to work. Downloaded "Zen Neeon Firmware .0", also didn't work.
    So what now? I'm still waiting for the support team to reply my email.

  • ZEN NEEON with external microphone possib

    Does anyone has Zen Neeon?
    Neeon has 'direct line-in recording' as stated in the product page, does that mean it is possible to plug an external microphone (eg. Sony ECM-DS70P) to the line-in jack and bypass the built in microphone?
    thanks.

    I don't have a Neeon, and there aren't a lot of people here who have one so I'm not sure how quickly you'll get a response to this. On the previous MuVo N200 (which had its name illogically changed to the Zen Nano, if I recall correctly) the line-in wasn't well rated for quality, based on posts here. Being a Journalist you might want to try and get a product from Creative UK to test for yourselves.
    On point 4 you are best to contact UK Customer Service (or as you are a Journalist, perhaps UK Sales) who will be able to tell you (or not) whether the player is coming. Often this kind of information is limited to a press release.

  • ZEN Neeon - Pre-Purchase Questi

    OK, just a few questions about this particular model from Creative. I would appreciate any clear response to my questions where possible:
    As a musician and regular columnist for the UK's most popular Music Tech mag:
    Sound on Sound -these are just a few questions lots of our eager pro-musician readers are asking about:
    ZEN Neeon Quesions
    ) The 'Line-In' recording feature on the ZEN Neeon has not really been fully addressed in its technical entirety on the products pages of Creative Labs web site.
    So with this lack of information, I would like to ask about the quality of both the recording and encoding quality.
    Could someone post a sample of a 'Line-In' recording from their Neeon?
    2) If the Neeon allows PCM/WAV recording, then what is the "real" and actual true bit depth and sample rates offered. I presume the Neeon also encodes the 'Line-In' recordings to MP3 too. What bitrate/sample rates are offered?
    3) Is the built-in microphone recorded using the same process as the old NOMAD models, using VOC compression? If so, why doesn't the microphone use the same method of recording as the 'Line-In'? FM radio recordings also apply to the above question.
    4) When will they be available to buy in the UK?

    Duplicate thread.

  • Zen Neeon dead

    Hi,
    I've recently got a Zen Neeon - I'm in the UK but my dad bought it for me duty free in the Far East. I've had it a week and it's been fine. I was trying to record directly from a stereo through a line in, and this worked. When I'd finished I unplugged from the stereo and plugged it in to the computer. The 'connected to USB' but not transferring symbol came up on the screen of the Neeon, but the PC said 'USB device not recognised'. I unplugged the Neeon, and the 'connected via USB' icon stayed on the screen and I couldn't switch it off. I tried resetting, and entering recovery mode and neither worked. Finally by pressing all buttons randomly I got it to reset, and then reformatted the player. I uninstalled the software on my PC and started again from scratch. It was working fine again, so I resynchronised it and left it plugged in to the switched on computer overnight to charge (first time the battery has needed charging). This morning it was completely dead again - I've got the 'connected to USB' symbol on the screen, and nothing will wake it up or change it. I've tried the reset button, I've tried the reset button and the play key and I've tried uninstalling the software on the PC and starting again. Nothing works.
    I've phoned the helpline in Ireland, and they took me through all this again, and in the end said they couldn't help - suggested running the battery down until the player switches off completely - but that could take well over a week as it's new and just charged (and I can't use it at all). Is there ANYTHING else I can try? What've I done?!

    I had problems with my neeon
    I tried downloading driver but got nowhere but I got this back from technical support and after uninstalling and restalling everything this worked
    thank you for contacting technical support.Please try to do a firmware update and format of the player to see if this could fix the problems you're experiencing.First of all; download the Mass Storage Driver. You will find this here;http://sg.creative.com/support/downloads/Select MP3 Players --> Zen --> Your players name.Click "Next".Select "English", your operating system, "Driver"Click on "Go".Click on "Download now" to the left of the Mass Storage Driver. Save it onto your computer.You'll find the latest firmware version here:http://sg.creative.com/support/downloads/Select MP3 Players --> Zen --> Your players name.Click "Next".Select "English", your operating system, "Firmware"Click on "Go".Click on "Download now" to the left of the firmware.Click on "Agree".Proceed as follows:* Connect your muvo to your pc while holding the play button. Keep on holding the play button for about ten seconds.* Release the play button.* A dialogbox asking if you'd like to install a recovery device driver should appear.* Follow the insructions and install the device.- (I think the option I used was the first one)* When the player recovery mode is finished, you may double click the firmware upgrade file.* When the Audible Firmware Download appears, click start.* Follow the instructions on the screenn to complete the installation, tick the format data area box when it appears.* Disconnect the player.

  • Can not see wave form in arrange window  logic 9 Please help

    I have been using Logic for 3 months now...mostly just importing old wave files from past protools sessions.  Everything was working fine until I created a new session to record audio.  I record the audio at a nice level...I hit playback...I can hear it fine but I can't see the wave forms.  I can see it in the sample editor.  I've searched around and found the same problem in the past on some forums......they say to trash preferences...  I went to my mac drive...library...preferences  and nothing  I have no files labeled  com.apple.logic.pro  now I'm lost....the funny thing is... when I zoom in horizontal ...the wave form shows but it makes the track way too large.  Any help would be great.  Thanks

    In Logic:  Preferences/Audio
    What is the "Recording Delay" parameter set to?
    It should be zero, default is zero. If it's set to a positive or negative Logic will often not show the wavforms. If that's it, it's one of the long standing bugs in Logic.

  • How can I measure the hertz in a wave form?

    How can I measure the hertz in a wave form?

    As an example, this is from BBC Technical Requirements for HD material:
    3.1.1 Stereo line-up tones
    All stereo tracks must use EBU 1KHz tone (left ident). All tones must be sinusoidal, free of distortion and phase coherent between channels.
    Digital Audio Reference level is defined as 18dB below the maximum coding value (-18dBFS) as per EBU recommended practice R68.
    See also:
    http://www.bbc.co.uk/guidelines/dq/pdf/tv/tv_delivery_to_network_programmes_v1.2-2011.pdf
    for full document.
    And for BBC Radio:
    Not every Network requires tone. Check the delivery requirements with the commissioning network or click here.
    Reference tone, where used, should be at -18dBFS or PPM 4 on A, B and/or M.
    If submitting material with reference tone, tone and programme material must be have been monitored and measured through the same technical chain. The level of the tone must be equivalent to 0dBu and no less than 8dB below peak audio level for the programme material.
    THE LEVEL OF TONE MUST HAVE A KNOWN RELATIONSHIP WITH THE LEVEL OF THE PROGRAMME MATERIAL AND THIS MUST BE STATED; for example: “Tone at 8dB below peak programme level”.
    As a newcomer to digital sound (my background is camera) I confess to being somewhat confused. We are normally told to record at the highest level possible. So for voice podcasts I tend to record at about -6dB below peak for maximum volume, distributeds on MP3 files.
    But I can underatand that televison and radio especially for analogue transmission) may have limited headroom, hence the requirement for -18dB peak = 0dBM.
    I remember when we first rented out Digital Betacam cameras, some recordists were recording almost everything OVER -18dBM.
    I suspect that until we have an all-digital world, these requiremnents will still be in place.
    Many thanks to all. It's a ghreat community!

  • How to output sound from Zen Neeon to speaker without using

    how to output sound from Zen Neeon to speaker directly?
    as far as i know, i can only play content in my mp3 player using speaker with usb cable connected to pc
    i just wonder how i play using "play" button in mp3 player and the sound will output to speaker directly?
    need extra line-in cable?

    my speaker system is subwoofer,but i not very sure it's 2. system.
    the cable from the speaker is slightly too big to connect to the player headphone jack. and no sound come out after i play.
    why?

  • Possible to Adjust Selection to Wave Form in EM?

    Is there a quick way to adjust the time slection (not clip) to the ends of a wave form?  I work with long audio files that contain multiple short bits of audio.  I usually end up "saving my selection as" for the individual wave forms to create new smaller files.  But even using AutoMark, ai frequently get a bit more silence before or after the audio that I want.  It would be helpful if I could drag to select the audio, and automatically have the ends of the highlighted time selection snap to the beginning and end of the audio.  It seems like it should be simple, but I couldn't find it in the help function or on a search of the forum.
    Can someone point me in the right direction?
    Thanks,
    Ryan

    <If you are talking about Edit View, then the little yellow triangles/handles at the top and bottom of each end of the selection can be dragged, altering the selection accordingly. Zoom in for more accuracy>
    Steve,
    Thanks for the reply.  That's is my current method.  But it requires me to manipulate each selection manually.  I'm looking for a way to automate that to save time.  I do it hundreds of times per project.  Mainly I use the auto-mark function combined with the Marker List window.  But I also find myself having to select/copy/paste/combine bits of audio to create the 2-5 second blurbs I need, and when that happens it would save time if I could just click a single button and have the little yellow triangles move automatically to the start and end of an audio blob.
    Is there a way to do that that you know of?  It would seem to me that since several features in AA can automatically detect signal thresholds (i.e. the Auto-Mark feature almost does exactly what I want...it just doesn't actually select the audio), this would be a no-brainer.  That's what makes me think I just am not finding something obvious.
    Thanks!
    Ryan
