Modifying Slideshow

[Tom Rowles]

Hi

Can someone tell me the best way to make alterations to a slideshow after it has been created as an exe. file.

Also can anyone recommend good portable sound recorder, I believe this topic has cropped up before but I cannot locate it.

Hi Tom,

Let me address only your first question - the sound recorder I can't comment on.

It's not possible to alter a slideshow after it has already been saved as a new executable file. You need to make the changes using PicturesToExe to the PTE file then save your changes and export to an executable file.

Best regards,

Lin

If you search on the words "edirol" and/or "zoom" I think you'll find the threads you are looking for wrt sound recording.

Tom:

I have an Edirol R-09 sound recorder. Edirol

I also have a RODE NTG2 shotgun microphone for it Rode Mic (sorry the RODE website seems to be off line right now so I gave you a link to a store that carries it in Canada)

I have used it with and without the microphone for wildlife and voice recording, both with good success. (The mic is obviously the most successful, but I was more than happy with what I had achieved before getting the mic)

I had a zoom H2 but wasn't very happywith the results, some swear by the zoom H4. I now use a Zoom C03 USB mike direct into the laptop, but this method obviously isn't suited to field recording unless you cart the laptop around.

I have finally ordered a Samson H4 recorder and will be writing something on my web site, once I have some experience of it. I think AV workers would be interested if they could read an unbiased review and hear a good variety of recordings from the H4.

Should be delivered this week, so I will post a link to any review I do, when I do it.

Hi,

I have an H2, purchased quite recently after reading posts on this forum and am vedry pleased with it. I only use it for voice recording in a controlled environment. Havn't used it outside as yet. I had tried a number of mics including USB linked to PC and laptop but was very dissapointed with the results. For me the H2 is superb.

I wonder how it would be outside with a half decent directional mic?

I hope to be able to record live sounds and get the quality good enough too. Watch this space

I use an H2 and the quality from location recordings is, to my ear, fine. One needs to be careful with positioning and handling noise (poor add-on grip) but nothing to worry about.

A run through Audacity/Audition is all that's needed to get the best from the files produced.

I would assume that the H4 can produce even better quality - given the price difference.

I think you'll find the H4 was brought out before the H2, the H2 has features the H4 hasn't, adjustable gain etc.

That is not the information I have picked up from the forum. It would hardly make sence for an improved product to be given a lower product number.

Its like Photoshop 6 being a better vertion than Photoshop 9

I bought my H2 about 14 months ago after discussing the subject with Peter who has an H4 & said at the time he wished the H2 had been available when he bought his.
