photosounder

Hello


I am stuck in understanding the basic way to use Photosouner. (after reading the manual)

The topic is "isolating sounds" from a song.

The manual appears to say that you should have Photosounder in Lossless mode
for doing "isolating" work.

But, beyond that point...I can't understand what else it says about Lossless mode or how to use it when "isolating" sounds from a song.

I have a song. (how do I treat it? to isolate a certain sound from the song?)



------------------------------------------------------------------------

Do I......?

1) open the left channel of the song in Photosounder and click lossless.

2) identify the sound that interests me. Isolate it and save that file.

3) Open the Right channel of the original song. Put that into Lossless mode.

4) Again....identify the sound that interests me from 3). Then isolate
that sound and save the file.

5) Get the two RESULTING files and somehow melt them back together to arrive at a final stereo version of the isolate sound?

---------------------------------------------------------------------------

is any of this stuff explained anywhere?

All you really need to understand about the lossless mode is that you need to turn it on by clicking its button . Then you just do your isolating editing work as you normally would, with the spray tools and all that.

As for the steps you mentioned, you've got the whole idea right. What you need for steps 1, 3 and 5 is described in the manual (in Section V, Stereo Operations) and can be found in the Options menu. You open the file one with Load Left Channel Only turned on, save it to a sound file with the option Unnormalised Output turned on, same thing with the right channel, and when it's done use the Mix Channel Files to Stereo... command, still in the Options menu. However you can't do any of that with the demo version since you can't save sound files to begin with (if you could it wouldn't be a demo version )

OK thanks for the advice.

Uh, yes.

Isolation the kick drum video tutorial did not seem to have any relevance to whether
sounds were stereo or not...

It's about keeping things simple also....before something becomes tediuos and therefor
less interesting....
