Adobe Audition settings export

A wanted to export settings from Audition and import it on another machine. My reply was:

Here is the method for exporting and importing application settings from audition,
https://helpx.adobe.com/audition/using/customizing-saving-application-settings.html

Choose File > Export > Application Settings. Then specify a filename and location.

To reapply the settings at a later time, choose File > Import > Application Settings.

For exporting presets, this forum post  :
https://forums.adobe.com/thread/1042236
gives detailed instuctions on how to find the presets folder.

Then this page says, how to export mixdowns, sessions etc
https://helpx.adobe.com/audition/using/whats-new-cs6.html

Choose File > Export > Session As Template to create multitrack templates that speed up recurring projects requiring similar settings, tasks, and source files. To apply a template to a new session, choose File > New > Multitrack Session, and then choose a Template option.

To archive whole sessions or move them to other systems along with markers, metadata, and source files, choose File > Export > Session. In the Export Session dialog box, customize exported source files by selecting Save Copies Of Associated Files, and clicking Options. To change file format, select Convert Files. To export full or trimmed source files, choose Media Options.

Choose File > Export > Mixdown, and review the Mixdown Options section. Click Change to output tracks as separate files, or simultaneously output mono, stereo, and 5.1 masters.

players on Android for radiosai streams

Adapted from a support email to a listener who complained that radiosai on a Lenovo tablet worked sometimes and did not work sometimes.

The various options are listed at
http://radiosai.org/Pages/Streaming_Audio.htm#mobile
One way would be to try out the different apps listed there.

Unfortunately, we have found that various Android devices have various incompatibilities. Some players work on some devices while some don't. Apps like Tunein radio are very likely to work, since they have large installed bases.

Opera mobile browser plays our streams from the player linked from the home page radiosai.org when "Opera Turbo" is turned off. It does not seem to play the streams when Turbo is turned on. Chrome mobile browser plays too.

link farming for bfi

The British Fulldome Institute has a very useful feature - not only do they list free shows, but they distribute them too! But they request a link for every show. So, the next few posts are going to be about each planetarium show I requested, and with a link to BFI!
