My Almost-daily Journal |
|
| About I love trying out new things, especially when it comes to internet technology. I never really kept a journal, but it's something that I've always wanted to do. Now, everybody will get a chance to look inside my twisted, and somewhat-warped mind.
I've also subscribed to Audio Blog, so a few times a week, I'll leave actual voice blogs. Very cool!XML Newsfeed Previous Posts

Our Baby's Heartbeat Danielle and I started listening to our baby's heartbeat using a portable 2MHz doppler yesterday. Tonight, we decided to record the wonderful sounds by simply recording it using Audblog (I knew Audblog was a cool thing). The recordings were instantly uploaded below. One thing we noticed with the doppler, is that it does not have static/noise reduction built in. The doppler we use produces a great deal of static. So, I did a little research on the internet and downloaded a program called Tsunami Pro 32. It's a home-grown (I've never heard of it) professional recording studio program that the company claims, "Turn your computer into a professional recording studio! An award winning state of the art professional quality recording and editing program, yet very simple to use. More features than the competition, yet only costs one fourth as much. " I downloaded it simply because I typed in Google, "mp3 noise reduction software". And noise reduction is one thing it did quite well. Listen to these audio files of our baby's heartbeat that were run through Tsunami Pro 32. Cool thing is the demo will only record up to a max of 30 seconds of audio... perfect for this type of thing, so I'll never have to purchase. Gotta love demos. Then listen to the files below that are raw mp3's without any noise reduction. It's a world of a difference. 173203NR.mp3 173205NR.mp3 173206NR.mp3 173207NR.mp3 I guess you get what you pay for. A few hundred more bucks and we could've gotten a doppler with built-in noise reduction. Ha ha! We saved that extra hundred bucks to buy our baby some newborn Polo outfits with matching Gucci shoes. posted by Dino at 10:10 PM (permanent link)
