More about recording

So.. what to begin with..
I need to buy a mp3 with voice recording, but i'm not really sure which one, since there's no much about recording in the specifications..
I hope someone can suggest me a model just right for me.
Here are my doubts:
Is there any time limit of the record?
In what format are those records saved?
Hypothetically, how much of disc space would a 2h-record take?
Can i choose the quality of recording?
Does it have any noise reduction?
Is the recorded sound rather loud or quiet?
Can sounds from a far distance (like spacious assembly hall) be clearly recorded?
I hope someone could help
Thanks in advance.

I have the same problem. I wanted it all - nice screen, small size, fm, voice recorder. Bought zen 8gb. It only records 64kbps wav format. No fm recording. Recording quality is unacceptable. The sound is muffled, too much hiss, background noise. A cassette recorder from 80's can do better than this pos. Before this i had Iri'ver H0 6gb. It was a hdd based player, used it many times to record voice, inside pockets or under layers of clothing, and it did fantastic job @28kbps mp3. With ROCKBOX i think it could even be adjusted to record at a higher quality, but 28 was perfect.
The time limit in my zen is 0 hrs. Even when it's filled with music and videos it's still showing 0 hr voice rec time limit. Format 64kbps wav file. You cannot choose recording quality. (may be possible with Rockbox in the future). There's no mp3 player that has noise reduction, but you may try Wavelab or adobe audition 3. I've tried wavelab and it's hopeless with this zen. not much can be done. Recorded sound is quiet. Tried recording loud conversations, loud tv across the room and sounds like the sound is very far away. Forget about assemly hall or auditorium recording.
Emailed creative if any of their players can do 28kb mp3 voice recording and how unhappy i was about my zen. The reply i received was to reset player (reset/recovery) = erase everything and update firmware. I didnt want to insult myself by following this stupid advise so now i'm looking for another non-video mp3 player that can do decent voice recording and so far, other than Iri'ver H0/20, found one samsung model U3. Can't comment on voice rec quality, need to do more research. Asked creative to share with rockbox community data about the player's firmware but creative would never do that. Also they said creative currenty doesn't have any players that can record better quality sound.
I wish i could get my iri'ver back . Probably beats any dedicated voice recorder outthere. Never recorded in assembly halls but that would be the perfect player for that.
If you ever consider H0/20 5/6/20gb there's no time limit for sound recording. You can fill up the whole dri've. With mp3 compression at 28kbps compression rate it's about mb=min. Recording qulaity can be adjusted with original firmware or even more options with Rockbox.

Where can I learn more about the Logic Environment?

I've been using LogicPro for a while now - since version 7 came out - and I'm ready to learn more about the mysterious Logic Environment. Anyone know of a good tutorial or website on this topic? I don't have a specific question - what I need is a general overview.
My sessions are primarily audio recording and mixing with a virtual instrument from time to time. I rarely use MIDI except to play the synths and instruments.
My environmental experience so far has been limited to creating and naming audio objects, accessing "hidden" faders and as an alternate to the mix views provided in the global and track mixers.
I'd prefer free advice but I'm not against paying if it's worth it. I have read the manual but I have a feeling that it will be more helpful once I have a better grasp on the big picture. It's a reference manual more than a how-to.
My MIDI devices are an Axiom-61 and PreSonus FaderPort.
Thanks,
John

Apple has what they call "online seminars" available on the main Logic page
http://www.apple.com/logicpro/
If you look on the bottom right hand side of the page, you see a link for online seminars. You'll have to go through a regstration process, then you can watch 3 or 4 streaming Quicktime videos of people using different functions in Logic. There's nothing really in depth there, but it does show you a few useful shortcuts and methods.

Considering FileVault usage on an iMac with OSX 10.6.7. Wanting to know more about strengths and weaknesses of Filevault with Time Machine, Parallels and Carbon Copy Cloner. Any negatives to consider before flipping the switch?

I'm considering FileVault usage on an iMac with OSX 10.6.7. Wanting to know more about strengths and weaknesses of Filevault with Time Machine, Parallels and Carbon Copy Cloner. Any negatives to consider before flipping the switch? Any information ?
Would specifically like to know:
Filevault impact on performance and application usability.
TIme machine impacts, and whether TIme Machine volume will also be secure?
Will a Cloned copy made with CCC be bootable, or usable?
Any other negatives to consider before turning this thing on?
Thanks,

Filevault impact on performance and application usability.
FileVault encrypts the user's home directory only - it is basically an encrypted disk image that is automatically opened when you log in and closed when you log out. It does cause disk accesses to be a bit slower so it isn't a good idea to use an encrypted account with sound or video or large graphics files. I have no experience with it with Parallels Desktop but suspect that you'd notice a bit of a slowdown. Note: in the User's directory you'll see a Shared Folder. Since FV only encrypts the user's directory you can put data you don't need encrypted in this shared folder which won't be encrypted.
TIme machine impacts, and whether TIme Machine volume will also be secure?
There are issues with TM and FV but how extensive they are with Snow Leopard I can't say, once I realized that TM and FV hadn't substantially changed between 10.5 and 10.6 I stopped dealing with it. When FV and TM were first introduced my testing led me to recommend using CCC or SuperDuper! for backing up.
Will a Cloned copy made with CCC be bootable, or usable?
Yes
Any other negatives to consider before turning this thing on?
Since FV is nothing more than a disk image - and disk images can fail - there are several problems with FV in my opinion. If an encrypted disk image fails it isn't possible to access any of that data. If you don't have a recent (undamaged) backup of the disk image and/or recent backup of the data within the disk image you are in a world of hurt. This isn't just a warning of possibility - this is a real danger that I've seen all too often at the shop where I have worked part time for a number of years.
At this time I strongly recommend that people who have sensitive data keep that sensitive data segregated from their general data and encrypt only the sensitive data or use other methods of locking it down such as saving on an external drive that is kept in a safe. Call me paranoid but I don't even keep all my sensitive data in one encrypted disk image. I use multiple disk images and keep multiple sequential backups. That way I might someday find that my up-to-date investments disk image won't mount but (a) I can go back a week to a backup and (b) that won't impact my up-to-date business records because those are in a different disk image

Where can I learn more about Siri?

Apple has got some great guides to start developing in Objective-C, used for programming OS X and iOS apps > http://developer.apple.com/library/mac/#referencelibrary/GettingStarted/RoadMapO SX/chapters/01_Introduction.html

Why would it state under the "more about this mac" that i already have10.8.3 and then in the app store say i need to "resume" do you know what i mean? is it possible i already did download mountain lion entirely once? I am confused and don't want it twice

This is cause by the way the App Store checks to see if an application is installed on your system.
Basically when an app is installed it is in the Applications folder and this is where the MAS looks for them. So it looks at your purchase history for the apps you bought and looks in the Applications folder to see if they are installed. If an app is in your purchase history but not in the Applications folder the MAS says you need to install it.
For normal apps this works fine but the OS doesn;t install into the Applications folder. So the MAS sees you have Mountain Lion in your purchase history but it's not in the Applications folder and so it says you need to download it.
Hopefully one of these days Apple wil fix this.

Learning more about the features in PS touch

I was looking at PS touch, maybe for my ipod mini.
I was hoping to get more of a sense of what the features are, but it seems Adobe has replaced information with hype, giving us the Disney version of what their programs are about.
I'd like to know more about the features of PS Touch, specifically:
I assume I can use layers, but do they have modes such as darken, lighten, overlay, soft light, etc?
Can I create masks in these layers, so I have control over which part of the layer is applied to the image?
Does the curves tool have more than 3 points to adjust, can you add points as with full PS?
If I was working off my camera's memory card hooked up to the iPod mini, can I then do a save as of the image I'm working on, either saving it to the card or my device (in part to create a new image and to also keep the original) ?
It's very frustrating that this information is not more readily available to us. also, I may have missed it, but i didn't see a link to the forums from the Adobe pages, not under Learning, or about Adobe, or?
Regards, David

In order:
Yes, PS Touch uses layer blending modes just like in Photoshop (and Photoshop Elements). It doesn't have *every* blending mode, but the basics (like the ones you listed) are there.
The best that I can explain it as far as "masks" in PS Touch goes is that you paint your desired effect onto your image (via the Effects Paint tool). You do not need a mask layer per se as the effect is contained as you paint over the desired area. (You can adjust size, hardness, flow and opacity of the brush in this tool. If you have a tablet with pressure-senstive support, you can control size and opacity as well dynamically like you would with a Wacom graphics tablet connected to a desktop.)
You can add/subtract as many points as you want in the Curves adjustment. (There's a general Curves adjustment and one provided under the Effects Paint tool; both use the same interface for options.)
I don't think so, as the file system in PS Touch is self-contained (at least under Android; not sure about iOS). When you go to save a project, it's added into the main interface. (You can create folders to manage these projects, btw.) You can then export projects under a desired file type (like PSD or JPEG) locally or to a service like Adobe's own Creative Cloud or Dropbox.

I want to know more about the Sanapshot tool. What is its purpose? how do I use it? I have searched Firefox Help, but did not find a clear answer.

That is not part of Firefox. It is either an add-on for Firefox which you installed, or it is a separate program you have.
Also, is '''Sanapshot tool''' the correct name? Or did you mean '''''Snapshot'''''?

More about languages

Hello there...
As you all probably know it's possible to have multiple menu backgrounds, different button text, different subtitles and audio with dvd studio pro. BUT (yes.. there is one big but in all this) i have a problem when it comes to menus for diferent languagues.
I know how to make a script to select an audio ou subtitle stream acording to user input (in a language menu).
My question is: if dvd studio allows you to use diferent menu layouts for diferent project languages, why it doesn't lets you point a script to a specific menu language, "forcing" you to make 2 menus? I mean... the software will read the language value in the sprm, but if the dvd player language settings are different from the avaiable languages on your project? why there isn't a way to choose custum script no select the language instead of forcing it to only realy the sprm value?
Or there's one, and it's me that need to learn a little more about dvdsp ?
Can someone please help me with this?
Thanks!

The KOffice apps have quite some options for saving files. KWord can do it in MS Word, MS Write and RTF amongst others. The import filters may not be working all too well, have a look at the Supported File Formats. I can't really tell about the quality of those filter, because I for myself have to handle just PDF-files most of the time, and my former MS Word & MS Excel files are not that important (means I don't really care, if I have to make a fresh start with my docs when going with KOffice).
