Solve : New problem with new machine? |
|
Answer» In my NEW machine I USED a MSI motherboard which came with an onboard sound card by Creative. Part of the included software was a program called "Wave Studio", used for editing sound recordings. When I open a .wma or a .mp3 FILE into Wave Studio and later try to save it as a .wav file I get the response "Insufficient disk space". What's that all about? I can CREATE .wav files from other programs but not Wave Studio.. Just on a hunch. Do you know how to get Audacity and install the MP3 thing? Yes, I use Audacity quite a bit. I can export from there in either mp3 or wav, no problem. I use Wave Studio as a speedy way to edit volume, pitch and length of different music pieces before I burn them to CD. Then I have to save it as an .mp3 file then convert later if I want wav. Also when I am recording I use it to adjust mike sensitivity. I find that Audacity is really useful. Sometimes I will use it to add or subtract verses from a piece of accompaniment music. We do a lot of entertainment at different "Homes" for shut-ins mosts of which are elderly, like us, and some of the music we do is comic rendition of the original and requires some modification. I can get along without Wave Studio but I would appreciate any help you can give me to get rid of this problem. Thanks again JIMP.S. I am going to be away from my computer the nexr several days so I will not be able to try any "cures" that you may suggest till I get it going again, JIMQuote from: Geek-9pm on November 19, 2010, 09:25:37 PM Give us more background, Jim Yes, that is correct. Now I am using Windows 7, 64 bit. JIMYour response seems tp confirm my hunch. Wave Studio does not get along with Windows 7, 64 bit and mulch-core. Make sure you have the XP emulation mode for the program. I am not won Windows 7 at the moment, so maybe somebody else here can guide you. I think that is the problem. As I recall, there is only other problem with memory space, but I don't remember how you fix that. That is all I can think of. I see somebody else is typing. OH, so my hunch was right. dig into the XP emulation thing.Quote from: Geek-9pm on November 20, 2010, 08:14:18 AM I see somebody else is typing. OH, so my hunch was right. dig into the XP emulation thing. How can you tell if someone else is typing?? And how do I check the "XP emulation mode", thing??

This is a known issue with Wave Studio and Windows 7. Possible workarounds: 1. Open the wma or mp3 file in WaveStudio. Do the editing you want. Create a new empty file in WaveStudio7 (File/New) and copy the edited file into this new empty file. Now hopefully you will be able to save it. 2. Saving the file as Microsoft ADPCM is reported to work. 3. Get Audacity, which is free and reportedly works fine on Windows 7, although I am not sure if it supports all the formats that the Creative product does. Still at least it works. Quote from: Salmon Trout on November 20, 2010, 10:55:49 AM Possible workarounds:2. Saving the file as Microsoft ADPCM is reported to work. Great. That works. Saving the file as "microsoft ADPCM" results in a .wav formated file. Thank you so much. JIMThank you, Salmon Trout. Both of you. |
