drag and drop the shn files into mkwact, but first go to settings and "uncheck delete input files"

Go here and download the FLAC installer for Windows

http://mikewren.com/flac/

Fire up FLAC Frontend.  Drag & drop the files into FLAC Frontend.  Press the Decode button.

Nope, can't do it on Roxio.  WMP won't have a clue, either.  Gotta use FLAC to decode.

In order to burn audio discs, you have to decode the FLAC files to WAV, just like with Shorten you have to decode the SHN files to WAV.  Just like if you want access to zipped files, you have to decode the ZIP file.

If all you want to do is listen to the FLAC files on your PC, then there's a FLAC plug-in for Winamp, but I haven't used it.  You can probably find it at the FLAC homepage:

flac.sourceforge.net

If you follow my prevous post, the outcome will be WAV files you can burn to audio CDs with Roxio.

Heh, yeah...I've been checking the site a lot as I'm on a transferring binge from the Grey Fox Bluegrass Festival:  7 main stage sets and 5 workshop sets transferred the last day and a half or so.  

Tomorrow I'm off to Rockygrass...woohoo!!

Thanks, JR, I know I'll have a great time.  My plans have changed a bit, though - now flying instead of riding (m/c).  Oh, well.  I'll keep an eye and ear out for the guys you mention.  Won't be able swing Four Corners as Labor Day is a big family weekend for me, I'll likely be in Chicago.

Any tips on where to set up at Rockygrass?  I've heard running up front is a major PITA - just damn difficult to get in early enough to find a good spot.  Have been told there's an OTS set up near some relay stacks that's spacious, mellow, no rushing and crowding, etc.  Never stack taped before, though.

Still gonna try to run up front, I think - we'll see how it goes.  It was damn near impossible to run up front at Grey Fox, all the early arrivers staked out their territory waaaaaay early.

Oh, yes, Bryn Bright...seen her twice in the last 2 months.  Mmmmmmm....Bryn...  :D

Let's definitely hook up with a trade later.  Probably 1/3 of the GF sets turned out nice, 1/3 just okay, and 1/3...ugh.  Too bar back, too quiet a PA, too loud a crowd, too loud a generator.  Hopefully I'll fare better at Rockygrass.

You uploading any of your sets to Bluegrassbox?

having never been to Lyons, i can't help with the scene.  what i do know, is that it is so much smaller than TBF, that you should be able to deal fairly easily, especially if you hook up with any of the guys i mentioned.  kind of, 'once you're in, you're in'.  i'll make a couple of calls to see who's really gonna be there.  when do you leave.

I'm leaving about 2pm EST today.  Thanks for the names, JR, I'll ask around when I get there - hopefully I can hook up with some of those folks!
