RCA .VOC File Problems Fixed

To all of you out there who are having a problem with this file I have found 2 things that work. One every easy and one not so but works. The easy go to RCA.com and to the voice recorder page http://www.rcaaudiovideo.com/categories.aspx?product=368&post=49. Mine was listed with a photo so it made it easy and it offered a link to download the vioce manager software.

If yours is not go to support and then to downloads.

The good, it will see and play the file while hooked up by USB cable (only) you can right click and export it to a .WAV file or and .EXE file from here. The bad part is that it brings it in lower sounding than what was orginally recorded.

The other way is to play the file with the RCA vioce software and re-record it using an audio capture program. You can get them as freeware or watch Giveawayoftheday.com as they usually offer one at least once a month. The Bad it is a 1 to 1 recording but it will offer better, louder sound quality that will match the original. I use Hi-Q Recorder, it has a timer so I can set it and leave for long ones that matter. They have a free version and it is very good software. The difference is that with the free version you can only go to 96 on the bitrate and no timer record. For most shows I use 192 edit it and then back down to 48 because of size.

Hope this helps, I have been everywhere on the net this past weeks and have been aggrivated to no end, as there was no easy way to find how to convert these files. While there were alot of opinions and points to doing it, nothing worked. I was trying to convert it for a friend who sent me the file. Well, RCA is crazy enough that you actually have to plug the device in the computer before you can do anything with it. The file by itself won't work. Did I say crazy, sorry I meant Stupid.
