mazuio Posted December 8, 2004 Report Share Posted December 8, 2004 I'm surprised Sony's SoundForge program doesn't allow you to save in .oma format. I looked at their specs online and there's no mention of it saving to their own proprietary format! I thought I read somewhere that it did. Anyone know for sure? Thanks.

campekenobi Posted December 8, 2004 Report Share Posted December 8, 2004 I have SoundForge v. 6, just tried to READ an oma - says unknown file format. However, I haven't tested this program, but if you wanna give it a shot, it at least lets you go from OMA to MP3. http://home.hetnet.nl/~thomas_7/1Wire/1-wire.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marcnet Posted December 8, 2004 Report Share Posted December 8, 2004 ^ That program makes uses my program to convert to .wav and then to .mp3 The latest version of HIMDRenderer (0.31 to date) converts .oma direct to mp3 http://www.marcnetsystem.co.uk/himd/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
campekenobi Posted December 8, 2004 Report Share Posted December 8, 2004 omigosh - that's so funny, I didn't even realize you were the one BEHIND the very program I recommended to you!! I guess you're not the person to ask if it actually WORKS then, right - lol. (I was concerned about installing something that changes/alters windows dll's) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
deafplayer Posted December 8, 2004 Report Share Posted December 8, 2004 lol that was funny about soundforge.... yeah it would be awsome to have it integrate with HI-MD HI-MD could be taken far more seriously as a recording medium if it integrated with a professional sound editor it would also be cool if the HI-MD players could use sony's perfect clarity audio (.pca) lossless compression format that soundforge can render Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
doclloyd Posted December 8, 2004 Report Share Posted December 8, 2004 Sound forge (and ACID) can export to Net-MD directly (LP2 mode by default), but not Hi-MD for now. I tried the trial versions and it didn't recognize the portable with a Hi-MD formatted disc in there. Hopefully they fix that sometime soon.

fretwork Posted December 10, 2004 Report Share Posted December 10, 2004 at my school we use sound forge (probably an older version) and I use my hi-md and upload all the time. you just need a connector from the headphone jack to your computer, and record it as an external source in soundforge. just make sure your levels are turned up high to make sure your quality is great. from there, save in any format you wish.
