RemixâS Music Profile â Users At Last-Canada Remix
Remix’s Music Profile – Users at Last-Canada Remix – Editing MP3 Music Files
The MP3 file is one of the most popular ways to store music on computers and portable audio players today. Visit here now http://rimix-list.blogspot.com/
The main reason MP3 became popular was because it compressed large audio files into much smaller sized files and still had good sound quality. But another advantage of MP3 files is that there are many software programs available that allow you to edit the sound and remove unwanted noises like pops and scratches. Editing software can also be used to adjust the overall sound level of an audio file.
One of the first things you will notice after you have collected a number of music files is that they don’t all play at the same overall sound level. Even though one track may be a recording of rock band playing so loud that their amps are breaking up, it may be recorded at a lower overall volume setting than a song file which features only a solo acoustic piano. So as the songs play one after the other you have to adjust the playback volume to compensate for this difference. A playlist of 20 or 30 songs may have song files recorded at quite a few different volume settings. Having to constantly adjust the volume can be annoying.
Editing software can correct this by adjusting the overall volume level of each track so that they are all about the same. This is called normalization. Some editing programs have an automatic normalization procedure so that an entire directory of audio files can be normalized at one time.
If you have recorded some of older records or tapes onto audio files by using the “line in” jack on your computer’s sound card, the recording will probably have some scratches or background hiss. Audio editing software can help reduce this type of noise. The overall clarity of the sound will be mostly dependent on the quality of the analog to digital converter in the sound card, but the results can be enhanced to some degree by editing software. The editing software will have filters that can be used to reduce background hiss on the entire track.
If you have a song file which suddenly cuts off just before the end of a song, you can use editing software to provide a gradual fade out instead.
There is quite a range of editing software available now, from consumer to professional level. One popular program is Sony’s Sound Forge Audio Studio, which retails for about $70. There are some free programs available, but they tend to have limited editing capabilities. Visit here now http://rimix-list.blogspot.com/

using sony sound forge 8 how do i get my(mix) recording so when burnt to cd to track as 1,2,3,4, and so on ?
I`ve recently bought sony`s sound forge 8,because i would like to edit my own Dj mix`s.(as like pre-bought one`s in shop`s)
When i record my mix on to hard disc as a 80 minute mix & then burn it on to CD it is as 1 big track,therefore if i want to hear the 2nd,3rd or 2nd,3rd last track i`ve got to keep my finger on the forward search button or back search button on my cd player to get to these track`s( this is driving me nut`s!!!).
I`ve tried using the help files on the program,which tell you to mark/region the wave file as to how many song`s i`ve mixed in 80 minutes,i`ve then saved what i`ve done to then burn mix to find IT DID`NT WORK…….IT CAME OUT AS 1 BIG TRACK AGAIN and another disc wasted(what i`m i doing wrong?,i say).
Surely,I must be doing something wrong,I`ve spent hours apon hours trying,I know it can be done ,it`s stairing me in the face but just can`t get it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
If you know what i`m talking about PLEASE please can YOU HELP me..A Very FRUSTATED Dj
You have to have a program that will allow you to set the track cuts such as Cakewalk’s Pyro. I use it myself and you can take a long track and cut it into individual CD tracks and then control the fade in and fade out between tracks. It also comes with plugins for loudness maximizing, noise reduction and will access any other Dx plugins you have.

Foreign Direct Investment in Retailing in India â Its Emergence & Prospects
Abstract
In recent years the destination sectors in FDI have became more varied. FDI inflows have shifted from infrastructure, natural resources and export driven manufacturing to other areas such as retailing, tourism, construction and off shore services. A World Bank study showed that cumulative FDI inflows to the retail sector in the 20 largest developing countries amounted to US$ 45 billion in 1998-2002 (about 7 per cent of the total of these countries). The study showed that after liberalization; countries such as Brazil, Poland and Thailand have received significant FDI in retailing.
In spite of the recent developments in retailing and its immense contribution to the economy, retailing continues to be are the least evolved industries and the growth of organised retailing in India has been much slower as compared to rest of the world. Over a period of 10 years, the show of organised retailing in total retailing has grown from 10 per cent to 40 percent in Brazil and 20 percent in China, while in India it is only 2 per cent (between 1995-2005). One important reason for this is that retailing is one of the few sectors where foreign direct investment is not allowed. Within the country, there have been protests by trading associations and other stakeholders against allowing FDI in retailing. On the other hand, the growing market has attracted foreign investors and India has been portrayed as an important investment destination for the global retail chains. The present paper attempts to analyze the reason why foreign retailers are interested in India, the strategies they are adopting to enter India and there prospects in India
After the waves of globalisation, liberalisation and privatisation marketing scenario particularly retailing has changed radically. These changes have resulted in emergence of new environment for buyers’ behaviour and purchasing habits. The upper and upper middle strata of the society now prefers to purchase well established branded goods from standard showrooms and it has transformed the entire picture and perception not only in the metro cities but almost in all big cities of our country. It is worth mentioning that retailing in India has been hailed as one of the sun-rise sectors in the economy. According to A. T. Kearney, a well known International Management Consultant, “India is the second most attractive retail designation globally, among thirty emergent markets.” Till now unorganised retailing sector was dominating retail trade in India by constituting 98% of all retailing trade but now not only traditional Indian retailers but giant Indian retailers like Reliance has entered in the area and is planning to expand its activities in this sector in a big wag. Even world renowned retailing organisation like Wal-Mart has decided to enter in India via joint venture with Bharti and French retailer Carrefour is busy in chalking out strategy to enter the hyper market and supermarket retail format in India through Dubai based retail major Landmark group.
In this context an effort has been made in this paper to review the emergence of global retailers in India, to examine the govt. policy relating to FDI in retailing and to evaluate the prospects of global retailing in India.
Why Global Retailers are Interested in India?
More specifically the global players are interested in India due to following reasons:
I) Strategic Location & Geography: India enjoys unique geographical advantage. It is strategically located in Asia with access to all leading markets of the World. With total area of 32, 87,590 Sq. Km, Coastline of 7000 Km and borders with six countries India becomes most promising destination for the foreign direct investment.
II) Versatile Demographics: Demographically with a population of more than 1.1 billion and diverse culture, India is a land of all seasons. India presents a real cosmopolitan population with diverse religions and culture. Hinduism, Buddhism, Jainism, Sikhism, Christianity and Islam are the main religions of India. This variety of religions provides India with a diverse culture. Besides, India has versatile population of urban and rural nature. This versatility of population makes India a ready made market for foreign retailers.
III) Vast growing Economy: On economic front, India the largest democracy of the world, have a stable Govt. with robust programme of economic reforms. India with a foreign exchange reserve of more than US $120 billion, FDI of more than US $9.9 billion ,average GDP growth of more than 7% per annum, rupee appreciation Vs U.S dollar of more than 2% in last two years and with a rapidly growing investment in infrastructure has all the ingredients of a emerging economic super power. India is tipped to be third largest economy in terms of GDP by the year 2050 (Table 1)

In such a scenario every multinational aims to set up a base in India, not to participate in Indian growth story, rather to build their own future.
IV) Retailing: The Emerging Revolution: Retailing is the largest private industry in India and second largest employer after agriculture. The sector contributes to around 10 percent of GDP. With over 12 million retail outlets, India has the highest retail outlets density in the world. This sector witnessed significant development in the past 10 years from small unorganized family owned retail formats to organized retailing. Liberalization of the economy, rise in per capita income and growing consumerism has encouraged large business and venture capitalist in investing in retail infrastructure. The importance of retail sector in India can be judged from following facts (a) Retail sector is the largest contributor to the Indian GDP (b) The retail Sector provides 15% employment (c) India has world largest retail network with 12 million outlets (d) Total market size of retailing in India Is U.S $ 180 billion (e) Current Share of Organized Retailing is just 2% which comes around to $3.6 trillion (f) Organized retail sector is growing @ 28% per annum.
V) Indian Retailing: Opportunities Unexplored: India is sometimes referred to as the nation of shopkeepers. This is because the country has the highest density of retail outlets – over 12 million. However, unlike most developed and developing countries, Indian retail sector is highly fragmented and bulk of the business is in the unorganized sector. As compared to China (Table 2) the presence of global players in India is very less

India in such a scenario presents following facts to foreign retailers:
- There is a huge, huge industry with no large players. Some Indian large players have entered just recently like Reliance, Trent
- India can support significant players averaging $1 bn. in Grocery and $0.3- 0.5 bn. in apparel within next ten years.
- The transition will open multiple opportunities for companies and investors
In addition to the above, improved living standards and continuing economic growth, friendly business environment, growing spending power and increasing number of conscious customers aspiring to own quality and branded products in India are also attracting to global retailers to enter in Indian market.
Major Global Players in Retailing: The top 30 global retailers together with their percentage of sale from grocery and the percentage of sales in domestic and foreign markets for the year 2003 are given in Table 3.

Arguments in favour of FDI in Retailing
FDI in retailing is favoured on following grounds:
(1) The global retailers have advanced management know how in merchandising and inventory management and have adopted new technologies which can significantly improve productivity and efficiency in retailing. (2) Entry of large low-cost retailers and adoption of integrated supply chain management by them is likely to lower down the prices. (3) FDI in retailing can easily assure the quality of product, better shopping experience and customer services. (4) They promote the linkage of local suppliers, farmers and manufacturers, no doubt only those who can meet the quality and safety standards, to global market and this will ensure a reliable and profitable market to these local players. (5) As multinational players are spreading their operation, regional players are also developing their supply chain differentiating their strategies and improving their operations to counter the size of international players. This all will encourage the investment and employment in supply chain management. (6) Joint ventures would ease capital constraints of existing organised retailers and (7) FDI would lead to development of different retail formats and modernisation of the sector.
Arguments against FDI in Retailing
Many trading associations, political parties and industrial associations have argued against FDI in retailing due to following reasons:
(1) Indian retailers have yet to consolidate their position. The existing retailing scenario is characterized by the presence of a large number of fragmented family owned businesses, who would not be able to survive the competition from global players.
(2) The examples of south east Asian countries show that after allowing FDI, the domestic retailers were marginalised and this led to unemployment.
(3) FDI in retailing can upset the import balance, as large international retailers may prefer to source majority of their products globally rather than investing in local products.
(4) Global retailers might resort to predatory pricing. Due to their financial clout, they often sell below cost in the new markets. Once the domestic players are wiped out of the market foreign players enjoy a monopoly position which allows them to increase prices and earn profits.
(5) Indian retailers have argued that since lending rates are much higher in India, Indian retailers, especially small retailers, are at a disadvantageous position compared to foreign retailers who have access to International funds at lower interest rates. High cost of borrowing forces the domestic players to charge higher prices for the products.
(6) FDI in retail trade would not attract large inflows of foreign investment since very little investment is required to conduct retail business. Goods are bought on credit and sales are made on cash basis. Hence, the working capital requirement is negligible. On the contrary; after making initial investment on basic infrastructure, the multinational retailers may remit the higher amount of profits earned in India to their own country.
FDI in Retailing in India – Policy and Entry Routes
In India, till recently, FDI was not allowed in retailing, but the Union cabinet on January 24, 2006 rationalised and simplified the FDI policy and allowed the contentious issue of foreign investment in retail sector by allowing FDI up to 51 percent with prior government approval for retail trade in single brand products. This would imply that foreign companies would be allowed to sell goods sold internationally under a single brand, viz. Reebok, Nokia, Adidas. Retailing of goods of multiple brands, even if such products are produced by same manufacturer would not be allowed. However, there are indications that the Government may allow foreign investments in retail segments where small domestic players do not operate. The Department of Industrial Policy and Promotion is preparing a detailed policy for further liberalisation of FDI in the country, which is likely to be announced before the budget 2007-08. As part of the proposed move, the Ministry has marked out sports goods, electronics and building equipment as some of the sectors that may be opened up with a 51% cap on FDI. The government is also considering to permit multi-brand retail in such areas. The government is likely to discuss the matter with the left parties before taking a final call on the issue. The Left has initially stalled the government’s plans to allow FDI in multi-brand retail on the grounds that it will adversely affect mom-and-pop stores.
It is worth mentioning that FDI restrictions have not deterred prominent international players from entering India. Many U.S and other international retailers and consumer goods companies consider India a top-priority market with the potential for breakthrough growth. In this context (a) Wal-Mart CEO, John Menzar visited India in 2005 and met with Prime Minister to discuss relevant issues. Wal-Mart’s sourcing from India, which was U.S.$300 million in 2004 reached to U.S.$1.2 billion in 2005.(b) Fashion brand DKNY is set to foray into Indian fashion industry through franchise agreement with Indian company, S. Kumar’s. (c) Tommy Hilfiger, International fashion icon says that “We are going to build a wonderful lifestyle business here” (d) Phillip Morris is ready to unveil its plans for kraft in India through Kraft Jacob Suchard (KJS) India, a wholly owned arm of Philip Morris India (e) Starbucks has expressed its interest in entering India through the franchise route.
Although before January 24, 2006 FDI was not allowed in retailing, many international players are operating in the country. Some of entry routes employed by them are discussed in details as below:
(a) Manufacturing and Local Sourcing: Companies that set up manufacturing facilities are allowed to sell the products in the domestic market. Consumer durable companies such as Sony and Samsung have entered the retail sector through this route. Due to high labour cost in their domestic market, many international brands are setting up manufacturing bases in developing countries such as India and China and / or are sourcing products from local manufacturers. For example, Levi’s and Tommy Hilfiger are sourcing products from Indian manufacturers like Arvind Mills. Benetton has a manufacturing unit in India. Other international brands like GIVO from Italy have set up export-oriented manufacturing facilities. These companies are allowed to sell products to Indian consumers through franchising, local distributors, existing Indian retailers, own outlets, etc.
(b) Franchising: Franchising is the most preferred mode through which foreign players have entered the Indian market. It is the easiest route to enter the Indian market. Franchising is often used as a mode to expand the market of a particular retail enterprise outside domestic economy since it allows firms to expand without investing their own capital, is based on local expertise and enables firms to curb local oppositions and regulations. This is the most common mode for entry of fast food chains across the world. Apart from fast food chains like Pizza Hut, players such as Lacoste, Mango, Nike and Marks and Spencer, have entered the Indian market through this route.
For setting up franchising operation, the foreign players are required to take permission from the Reserve Bank of India (RBI). RBI often imposes the condition that franchisers have to bring in foreign investment and set up a base for carrying on operational activities. A foreign franchiser not wishing to make a direct investment would have to render technical assistance to the franchisee. Some franchisee, such as Pizza Hut has made significant investment in the supply chain.
The arrangements between franchisee and franchiser are found to be extremely flexible and are based on negotiation between the two. Some Indian franchisees have complained about high franchising fees together with high real estate costs, high import duties and other costs escalate the prices. For instance, the cost of a Marks and Spencer product is higher than not only the brands produced domestically but also in comparison to the price of the product in the UK. The high prices restrict the ability of the foreign players to penetrate the market but they have entered the country to make their brands visible to the huge Indian market.
If FDI is allowed in retailing, franchisees are not very sure whether they would hold the retailing rights for the brands. According to industry representatives, since franchisees largely constitute of domestic traders (even some unorganised retailers have take up franchising rights) who have made significant investment in infrastructure, government through legislation must ensure that they do not loose out their franchising rights if FDI is allowed in retailing and the franchisers decide to change the mode of operation. The existing franchisees have also expressed an interest in entering into joint venture with the franchisers if FDI is allowed in retailing.
(c) Test Marketing: Test marketing is another route through which many foreign players have entered the Indian market. Foreign investment Promotion Board (FIPB) allows foreign companies for test marketing of their products for a two-year period by the end of which they are required to set up manufacturing facilities in India. Direct selling companies like Amway and Oriflame entered the Indian market through this route. Initially, Amway got an approval for test marketing for a period of two years but they managed to secure an extension of one more year. At the end of the third year, they set up contract manufacturing facilities and brought in foreign investment and technical know-how. Oriflame too extended its test marketing license for a third year and at the end of which had set up a manufacturing facility in Noida (UP) for producing certain specific products. Other products are imported and would continue to be imported from abroad.
Nokia came to India through the test marketing route in mid-1990s. Initially they got a license for two years to test their products in the Mumbai circle. After three months of their entry they tied up with the service providers to provide integrated services to their customers. Due to pressure from the FIPB, Nokia had tied up with the HCL Infotech as a strategic partner for all India distribution of Nokia products. After the success of its products in the country, Nokia had opened up an office but had not set up a manufacturing facility and continued to import all products (even models made specifically for India). After another two years they divided the country into four zones and entered into a strategic alliance for distribution with Supreme for East and West India while HCL continued with North and Southern zone. Nokia had also applied for the cash and carry license from the FIPB and has recently got the license. Nokia is aggressively targeting the Indian consumers and plan to capture 75 percent of the mobile market in the next seven years. The company, which currently operates as a wholesale cash-and carry, recently announced that it would set up manufacturing facilities very soon.
The test marketing route allows foreign players to test the demand for their products in Indian market before undertaking investment. Even if FDI is allowed in retailing, many foreign players would like to enter the Indian market through this route.
(d) Wholesale Cash-and-Carry Operation: This is the route through which large international retailers such as Germany’s Metro Cash & Carry GmbH and Shoprite Checkers of South Africa have entered the Indian market. The wholesale cash-and-carry operation is defined as any trading outlets where goods are sold at the wholesale rate for retailers and businesses to buy. The transactions are only for business purposes and not for personal consumption as in the case of retailing.
(e) Distributor: Companies such as Swarovski and Hugo Boss have set up distribution offices in India and these offices supply the products to local retailers. All products of Hugo Boss are imported and distributed through the company’s distributor.
(f) Special Cases: The Sri Lankan retailers have entered the India market through the initiatives of Export Development Board of Sri Lanka (EDB) which obtained special permission from the RBI to set up retail operations in India. The EDB has leased 17 retail outlets in Spencer Plaza in Chennai in which Sri Lankan retailers are showcasing and selling their products. The Sri Lankan products showcased in these stores are mostly at the higher end of the quality spectrum and can be brought into the country free of duty. This gives an advantage to large Sri Lankan retailers like Hameedia not only to establish a global presence but also to access the large customer base of India at competitive prices. The EDB is also exploring the possibilities of setting up similar trade centres in other cities like Delhi and Mumbai. Although this mode has allowed retailers from Sri Lanka to enter the Indian market without domestic manufacturing and sourcing conditions and some products sold by these traders are similar to those sold by Indian retailers, EDB did not face any opposition from Chambers, retailers and the trading houses.
Although the official policy is that FDI in retailing is allowed only in one brand and that too up to 51% in retailing, but it has not acted as an entry barrier. Foreign players have a substantial presence in the country and have used several alternative unique routes to enter Indian Trading Sector. Some of the existing foreign players are listed below in table 4.

Conclusion
It is evident that ever growing urban and rural markets in India represent an unprecedented and vast unexplored opportunity for retailing to all types of formats. Initially there may be certain reservations and apprehensions in allowing global players in India’s retailing but if they are allowed in a phased manner on the basis of a well conceived and chalked out policy, they are likely to lead to more investment in organized retailing and allied sectors. As already discussed, it would also lead to inflow of latest technical know how, establishment of well integrated and sophisticated supply chains, availability of standard, latest and quality products, help in up gradation of human skills and increased sourcing from India. Yet the following points may be kept into consideration in this context:
- Since the Indian retail sector is highly fragmented and domestic retailers are in the process of consolidating their position, the opening up of FDI regime should be in phased manner over 5 to 10 years time frame so as to give the domestic retailers enough time to adjust changes.
- FDI should not be allowed for multi brand stores in near future, as Indian retailers will not be able to face competition with these stores immediately.
- At present it is also not desirable to increase FDI ceiling to more than 51% even for single premium brand stores. It will help us to ensure check and control on business operations of global retailers and to protect the interests of domestic players. However, the limit of equity participation can be increased in due course of time as we did in telecom, banking and insurance sectors.
- Foreign players should not be allowed to trade in certain sensitive products like arms and ammunition, military equipment, etc. and the list of excluded products should be clearly stated in the FDI policy.
- Generally super markets and hyper markets should not be allowed in the mid of city so as to protect the existence of unorganised or comparatively medium sized retail organizations.
The strategy of opening up should be backed by appropriate reform measures. India can learn from the experiences of other developed and developing countries and develop its own strategies, laws and regulations that would be in the best interest of the country. As of now, there is no proper definition of retailing or retail formats in India. International players are exploiting the situation and are often entering the market and expanding their businesses through multiple routes and are operating in the country with more than one format of retailing. The regulatory regime should address these issues. The entry norms should clearly state the approval requirements, conditions / restrictions if any imposed, etc. The government should also strictly enforce the quality standards for local production and imports.

Which of the three headphones should I get?
I’m stuck between three different headphones and I keep hearing different opinions between everyone and I don’t know what to think anymore. I’m stuck between the Sennheiser HD280 Pro’s, the Sony Mdr-7506’s and the Grado SR80’s. If you put them all together, they make the ultimate headphone. But sadly, I can only get one so I need help here. I like the Sennheiser because they are really confortable, fold together, closed real well to keep the sound out and have a great consistant sound. I like the Sony’s because of their clarity and their truth of every note and beat and what it sounds like for a mixer and that they are portable and fairly comfortable. I like the Grado’s because they have the best sound out of the three, but they are open and although interchangeable pads, not very comfortable. Any help? Suggestions? I wanted something thats $100 or less, somewhat sound isolating, and incredable sound. I’m not a bass junkie, but great highs and lows are a must.
Well it depends on what exactly are you looking for. You say that incredible sound is important so the Grado’s would probably be your best buy. Is comfort a big issue for you? How often do you plan on using them? If comfort is a big deal then the Sony’s are the next best thing. Plus they are also good for traveliing. Good luck making that choice.

Will the Nokia N80 be cheaper in Singapore and Malaysia than the Philippines?
I am from the Philippines and I am planning to take a weekend trip to Singapore and Malaysia. I want to buy a new Nokia N80. Will it be cheaper in Singapore or Malaysia or am I better off just buying it in the Philippines?
When I went to Singapore I saw a lot of gadgets there. Plenty of bargain items too. There are a few things you should know. How much is the Nokia N80 in the Philippines? Around 20,000 pesos? What about over there? The cheapest I could find is $350 (11,550 pesos). It’s not just the price you should look for. What about warranty? Sony has an International Warranty which can be used anywhere in the world. NOTE: This warranty is an option given to you by Sony whenver you buy their products. I believe there are other warranties they offer.
If the N80 is cheaper there & has an international warranty, then by all means buy it in Singapore. After all, my Samsung camcorder’s parts came from there. I bought a battery for $50. I was told later at the Samsung Service Center that their price didn’t differ that much from the store in Singapore. I still believe that it’s not the price you should look at but the warranty. You never know when it’s going to break down. Better safe than sorry, as the saying goes.
