How do I monitor my 'line-in' recording with my Sound Blaster USB Mp3

I'm recording tracts of my band from a MD via line in. How do I monitor what's being recorded (in real time)?
Sound Blaster USB Mp3+
Thanks,
Mike

my problem seems similar to prior post.
I have attached Creative USB Sound Blaser MP3+ a.k.a. SB0270 to a Compaq Presario 700 lap top computer via its USB .0 port. I'm running WinXP Home with SR-2 update.
I have found that I CAN record audio using Creative's Wave Studio by first selecting "Line-In" in Microsoft's "Volume Control" software Options/Properties/Recording. "Line-In" then appears as the label on the record level control in Creative's Wave Studio. This was not the intuiti've choice as music fed in through a USB port supposedly uses the SPDIF (Sony Phillips Digital Interface Format). Selecting the SPDIF in Microsoft's "volume control" doesn't work.
However, although I can record the audio, I can not find any way to monitor the level of the audio while recording. When recording using Creative's Wave Studio, an indicator (lower left of screen) shows it is in the recording mode, but the level indicator is a straight line at zero / baseline. Furthermore, the input signal can not of been too small to be seen, because the graph shows nearly full modulation on playback.
How does one monitor the recording level while recording?

How can I get "IMAQ Line Fit" stable (with the same points)

How can I get "IMAQ Line Fit" stable (with the same points)
I my vision applications I use a lot off times "IMAQ Line Fit"
some times the results are not Stable.
See vi and word document attached.
When I take the same points but in a other order (sort)
then suddenly all points are used.
In this case I was looking for a edge in vertical direction (Y).
I found the points but "IMAQ Line Fit" did not function well.
I tried changing all settings like pixel radius and minimum score and
also threshold and so on. But no result.
Then I sorted the points reversed and that worked. See vi.
I use labview Labview 8.6.0 and IMAQ machine vision.
Maybe this problem is solved in a newer version.
Please let me know.
Thanks

Thank You for your reaction Hossein,
This "one application" uses "Line fit" about 20 000 000 times a day.
about 200 will go wrong. With your setting the the "Line fit" for this occasion will work but others will go wrong.
A algorithm should be:
1e Stable, when using the same points and settings the result MUST be the same. How the points are sorted should not matter.
2e Accuracy
3e Speed
4e Testing. Is very difficult but al least close points and the same points and sorting ... should be done
NI now as made a " IMAQ Line Fit" Problem CAR (Corrective Action request) 298016.
so in the future there will be a update.
In the mean while a made a line fit which uses Bisquare option from Linear Fit.vi :
from C:\Program Files\National Instruments\LabVIEW 8.6\vi.lib\analysis\6fits.llb
This is a temporary fix because "IMAQ Fit Line VI" is not so stable.
Because outliers should be rejected only Bisquare does this reasonable.
This program does NOT USE "Minimum Score" and "Pixel Radius"
Valid fit = When there are enough points within Outlier_Distance.
Algorithm steps:
- Determine if line is more horizontal then vertical, Compare DeltaX with DeltaY
- If DeltaX <= DeltaY then SWAP X Y and later Swap back
- Sort Points at on X value
- First : Bisquare Linear Fit
- Calculate distances to the found line for all points
- Inliers: Points within Outlier_distance
- Outliers: Points outside Outlier_Distance
- Only use Inlier Points
- Check again if DeltaX < DeltaY then SWAP X Y later SWAP back again
- Second : Bisquare Linear Fit only with the Inlier Points
- Results are from the second fit
Warning : This Program is Not so accurate and Not so fast
See attachments it is in labview 8.6
If some has a improvement please let me know.
Thanks

Line in Recording with Sblive 24

Can anyone recommend the right settings in the surround mixer, For good quality line in recordings? Right now my line in record slider is set at 70%, The line in is 70% and the master is at 70%.
Thankyou for your time.. shaiwill

Sbli've 24bit

shaiwill,
If those volume settings work for you, then those are the right settings. I think one important goal is to set the volume sliders so that you don't clip what you're recording. Some people recommend keeping the volume below 90% to avoid saturation, by which I think they mean clipping, but it depends on the level of the source too. If you can replay your recording source and have the Creative Wavestudio or some other recording software with a volume level meter, then on a first pass you can monitor your recording source and set the volume so that you get all the highs and lows. Then on a second pass, you should be able to make a perfect recording.

Product Request: Line-In Recording for Micro (or a USB Doo-D

I think the Micro would really benefit from that level of functionality.
There are two ways it might work, but I don't know the technical sides...
: the headphone jack is not just a source or dread; it's also Remote-Ready. This may point to additional input uses for the hardware, if there is the firmware to exploit it.
2: a line-in accessory could certainly be attached through the mini-USB jack. Again, the firmware would have to support it, but I would certainly pay for a doo-dad that let me record lectures and whatnot with an external microphone, not to mention the whole "record from a CD player" aspect, great for my numerous partially-scratched disks that my computer refuses to read...
Plus, a USB doo-dad would trans-product - they could be used with all the other players that use the mini-USB jack to transfer data. Anyway, a feature like that is too good to only feature in the N200.

I've just found a Yahoo! Group that discusses audio recording with Creative's Nomad Jukebox 3:
http://grou
ps.
yahoo.com/group/njb3tapers
So that's more proof that there's an interest in that. Maybe not as widespread, but I think one of the reasons the NJB3 was as successful was because of its recording capabilities, because as simple MP3 player it was too big, so it was the extra features such as line-in recording that made it stand up.

Zen V plus line in recording with 10 minute tra

I just purchased a zen v plus specifically for recording certain programs using the line in recorder. The programs are generally /2 to 3 hours long. The problem I have is that the line in recorder breaks up the recording into 0 minute tracks. Is there a way to program or adjust the setting,so that it's not broken up into tracks?
Thanks

When you record a track, the recorded track is automatically named LINE followed by the date and time of the recording ( LINE YYYY-MM-DD HH:MM:SS ). For example, if you recorded a track on March 5, 2004 at 2:57 pm, the track is named >LINE 2004-03-5 4:57:00 . You can just extract the recorded track from the player and rename it when you have it connected to your computer.

Line-in recording with microph

Greetings all
I have MuVo Micro mp3 player with line-in connector.
To use it for recording with microphone you need a pre-amped microphone.
I have one, battery powered electred condensor microphone, which I succesfully used before with MD-player (over line-in too). But it does not go with the Creative mp3 player. I do not know why?
Can you tell me if I need to switch an additionally amplifier between the line-in connector and the microphone or is there any other battery powered microphone to buy which will go with Creative mp3 player?
Thanks for any apply
Patrick

And that goes for playback too. No sound through speakers using the Line-in unless the red buttoned mutes are turned of in Audio Creation mode. That doesn't seem right. Playback from the Line-in should work from any mode. Am I doing something wrong?

Line in doesn't work Sound Blaster Audigy 2 - yes mute is off! - any ide

Hi,
I've been puling my hair out trying to hook my decks line out to line in on sound card Sound Blaster Audigy 2 (sold with PC). The sound card works fine for TV etc but I can't get any sound from line in for external devices. I've tried hooking up other devices such as iPod and Hifi and can't get any line in devices to play through my PC.
I've run the diagnostics test and tests complete succesfully.
Any ideas about how to get this sorted? Is this a known problem? Any other settings I can check on my PC?
I've searched the forums and can't see any messages related to this subject apart from one and the suggested solution was to check the mute button wasn't on, obviousy I have checked this one ;o), and the problem is elsewhere.
HELP!!! I'm dying to get a mix recorded onto MP3!!!
Thanks a lot for your help!
Regards
Rob

Rob,
Well if it isn't working on either input then it is most likely a software problem. Is this a platinum version of the Audigy 2? If so you may want to check your mixer and make sure that line2/mic2 is also unmuted to test from it. If this isn't a Platinum dri've, was this card installed in a prebuilt system? Then the front connecter may override the back one. I would launch the Window's mixer, go to options and make sure that every control has a checkmark in it. Then go down the line and make sure nothing is muted. This is mainly a double check step.
I am not sure what else could cause the line in not to work, you might want to consider contacting support directly in this case.

How do I find out what's wrong with my sound card?

I just tried to watch/listen to a video on Youtube and no sound was produced. I tried multiple other vidoes and the same thing happened. Then I opened Spotify to see if that would work, and it didn't, but it said that something was wrong with my sound card. I'm not sure exactly what that means, so if someone could potentially help me that would be great! My pro is about 8 months old so it should be having all these malfunctions (there have been others...)
On a side note, iTunes wouldn't even open due to "an unknown error".

Try these:
for some of your issues, open disk utility and verify your disk permissions - repair if needed. might take an hour or less depending on how much errors needs to be repaired....once done, restart your macbook....
for your sound issue - do a PRAM/NVRAM reset....
good luck....hope you get it sorted out....

Distorted recording with QuickTime 7 using USB Audio CODEC

I am running Mac OS X Tiger 10.4.8 with all the latest update from Software Update which includes QuickTime 7.1.3.
I am using QuickTime Broadcaster to stream back to itself (loopback) and record to disk at the same time. The input audio device is set to USB Audio CODEC (the default driver that comes with Mac OS X Tiger, and I am using an Alesis MultiMix 16USB mixer on a PowerMac Dual Core G5). I am using MPEG-4 Audio compression (no Video) of 16-bit, 44.1kHz and 128kbps (stereo).
The problem is that sometimes I get recordings (ranging from 1.5 hours to 2.75hours long) with distortion. Here is a short 20-second audio clip with distortion-free audio for about 6 seconds and then distortion sets in:
http://www.netmedia.com.sg/files/SampleDistortion20s.mov
Whether it overlays on top of the original audio or replaces it, I cannot tell, but the transition is instant and smooth with no audible clicks or pops. The distortion can come in and go randomly. For example, I had one recording with distortion coming in at about 2 minutes plus and it remained until about 2hr10min when the distortion went away. Sometimes it didn't go away; other times it came in about an hour later. I also had once where the distortion last only for about 6 minutes somewhere in the middle of a 2.25 hours recording...all in all, it occurs at random. And I do get distortion-free recordings.
This problem also occurs on an iMac G5 with a Alesis MultiMix 12USB mixer, and in another Vara Software's Videocue PRO software which uses QuickTime for recording and playback. QuickTime 7.0.x and all versions of 7.1 also had this problem.
Because of this problem, I may need to use a convoluted method to stream and record to disk via QuickTime. By the way, I also tried streaming to another local subnet IP address just as a troubleshooting without success.

I too am having distortion problem (Sorry no solution here).
Using OS 10.4.8, QT7.1.3, & Adobe Premiere 6.5 on a G4.
After I down loaded QT 7.1.3, my problems started. Is this when your problems started too?
Audio is in "slow motion" sound when editing. On rare occations, it sounds correct for 10 sec or so but sync is out and eventually reverts to "slow motion" sound. Even more bazar, when viewing a clip in a thumbnail preview, it works fine. So I know the orginal is good.
My contention is QT is causing this. All I want is my previous version of QT back. I think this might fix your problem too. Unfortunately, there is no reinstall that I can find that takes QT 7.1.3 off and puts QT 7.1.1or2. The reinstall QT 7.0.3 which is on the Apple website will not restall.
Looking for a reintall that will take QT 7.1.3 off, help anyone?

How do I monitor the Line-In Sound?

I'm connecting my stereo receiver to the line-in sound jack. I know it works because I can record (and monitor) the sounds through Audacity. But,is there a way to listen to what's coming in without opening any app?
I think it's the same question as here: http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=676560&#676560
and that didn't get an answer...
Thanks

You need some kind of application. The simplest is LineIn

How do I monitor the Line-In (Analog) input via my connected speakers?

I'd like to do this in order to hear audio coming from another device on-top of the audio already coming out of my Mac. On a Windows box, I would simply mark the checkbox for the input in the sound settings and the input is heard over attached output speakers, etc.
Beavis2084

Check the volume setting in the "Input" tab of "Sound" system preference. If it's still too low, run Audio MIDI Setup (Utilities folder. Set "Properties For" to the audio input and make sure the Audio Input sliders are all the way to the right. The Mac uses line-level audio input, so if you are using a microphone you may need a per-amp or iMic

How I make my menu line-up horizontally with my logo?

I want to have my logo in the top left and my menu in the top right - horizontally even with one another. How I do this? Once I put the logo it seem not want anything else across from it

Change this:
<div class="header"><a href="#"></a><a href="#"></a><a href="#"></a><a href="#"></a><img src="Images/kurtlogo.fw.png" width="245" height="65" alt="logo" />
</div>
<div id="navigationbar"><nav><a href="index.html">Home</a> | <a href="about.html">About</a> | <a href="portfolio.html" class="navtext">Portfolio</a> | <a href="plogo.html">Logos</a> | <a href="contact.html" class="navtext">Contact</a></nav></div>
to this:
<div class="header">
<div class="logo">
<a href="#"></a><a href="#"></a><a href="#"></a><a href="#"></a><img width="245" height="65" alt="logo" src="Images/kurtlogo.fw.png">
</div>
<div id="navigationbar"><nav><a href="index.html">Home</a> | <a href="about.html">About</a> | <a class="navtext" href="portfolio.html">Portfolio</a> | <a href="plogo.html">Logos</a> | <a class="navtext" href="contact.html">Contact</a></nav></div>
</div>
Basically, we're putting the #navigationbar within header as well. We're then enclosing the logo within another div - so we can float the logo div left and navigationbar div right.
Add this to your CSS:
.logo{
float: left;
Find #navigationbar in your CSS:
#navigationbar {
background-color:#0FF;
padding: 10px;
float: right;
Add the line in bold above (float).
For footer, find this:
.footer {
padding: 10px;
padding-left: 20px;
padding-right: 20px;
background-color: #0033ff;
position: absolute;/* this gives IE6 hasLayout to properly clear */
clear: both; /* this clear property forces the .container to understand where the columns end and contain them */
background-image: url(Images/background.jpg);
width: 921px;
height: 128px;
top: 760px;
Remove position line that I've struck out.
Then, open portfoliomain.css file:
.f11 {
font-family: "Trebuchet MS", Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;
font-size: 16px;
color: #FC3;
position: absolute;
Remove the line I've struck out.

How can I display more than one record with result set meta data?

Hi,
My code:
    ArrayList<String> resultList = new ArrayList<String>();
    rs=ps.executeQuery();
    ResultSetMetaData rsmd = rs.getMetaData();
    while(rs.next()){
     for(int k=1;k<=rsmd.getColumnCount();k++){
        resultList.add(rs.getString(k));
    ps.close();
    }catch(Exception e){
    e.printStackTrace();
    return resultList;
    public String test(ArrayList result)throws Exception{
    String data=
        "<tr>"+
        "<td class=normalFont>"+result.get(0)+"</td>"+
        "<td class=normalFont>"+result.get(1)+"</td>"+
        "</tr>";
    return data;
    } All the things are wroking but the problem is that ArrayList is displaying just one record whereas I have more than 20 records to display. I tried with loop like: i<result.size(); and result.get(i) then its throwing exception
java.lang.IndexOutOfBoundsException: Index: 0, Size: 0 I stuck here for the last more than 2 days. Please help me
Best regards

But here is what you appear to be doing:

for each row in ResultSet {
for each column in ResultSet {
    list.add(that element);
// which becomes
list.add(1);
list.add("Joe");
list.add("Smith");
list.add(180);
list.add(2);
list.add("Mary");
list.add("Jones");
list.add(144);
System.out.println(list.get(0));
1
System.out.println(list.get(1));
Joe
System.out.printlN(list);
[1, Joe, Smith, 180, 2, Mary, Jones, 144]That list has 8 items. Some of them are Strings and some of them are Integers. I would assume that, for this sample case, you would want a list with 2 items, both of which are Person objects. However, it really isn't clear from your posts what you are trying to do or what difficulty you're having, so I'm just guessing.

How do I read multiple lines at once with sockets?

I have been trying to teach myself the Java Network stuff and I have come across an issue I can't seem to resolve. I've been modifying the code from the KnockKnockServer and I am trying to send a line like ("Knock Knock \n Who's there? \n Me") to the client, and what happens now is that at each line feed character, I have to type something in to get the next line. I want to output them all at once without having to make the user enter something between each line. Is there some way to do this without writing the client to output three lines at at time?

This is why I wrote InfoFetcher in the first place.
