From: Chris <cwallace@gwi.net> Subject: Foo Fighter Trades wanted Date: Mon, 23 Mar 1998 20:09:06 -0500 (EST) Hi, I'm interested in trading for Foo Fighters shows. Preferrably from 1997 or 1998, but will consider trading for any Foo show I don't have on dat. I've got a fair amount to trade, including some '98 shows. Also interested in getting some Nirvana, especially 1991 shows. I've recently seen someone selling Foo shows (from DAT) on CDR. I'd prefer that you didn't ask me for a trade if this is your plan. Thanks. Chris http://www.gwi.net/~cwallace/tape.htm

From: Adam Aronson <adam@aronson.net> Subject: 3" CDR's Date: Mon, 23 Mar 1998 21:50:10 -0500 I recently purchased two 3" TDK CDR's (part number CD-W08EL) from a local music store. Problem is, they aren't very helpful in trying to obtain any more for me. Does anyone have a source? I need 10 or so... AA

From: "Gary Davis" <gdavis@loop.com> Subject: DAT-Store Super Sale Date: Mon, 23 Mar 1998 19:51:24 +0000 In addition to the amazing low price of $604 for brand new Sony D100's, the DAT Store is overstocked on certain other items, which are being offered at never-before-seen low prices! However, the manufacturers of these items won't let us "advertise" these low prices (we'll get flamed!) Therefore, you must email me (or phone the store) if you'd like to know the low prices on these items. Please do, you won't be sorry!

I recently picked up all of their studio albums and am really craving a taste of their live shows. I am going to be taping them twice in the next few weeks but I would like to get anything out there from them. Please let me know if you have anything to trade. Thanks, Ed ======================================================== Want to trade DATs come to my web page at: http://www.geocities.com/SunsetStrip/Venue/5771/

To my knowledge, DAT was not around until the mid-80s, and it was certainly not around in 1976 when the tape he was referring to was recorded. The earliest use of any digital technology in recording concerts was in the early 80s with the advent of PCM, to my knowledge. -- Chris Trumbore cdt@op.net

"Digital audio" has been around forever, if one uses the right interpretation. I think though, that the time of interest in this mailing list is when digital *recording* (from analog sources) came about, that being 1981, approximately. -- Kurt Swanson, Department of Computer Science, Lund University. kurt@dna.lth.se (© 1998 Kurt Swanson AB)
From: Michael Shiner <mshine19@idt.net> Subject: Rainravens/SXSW Reply-To: mshine19@idt.net Date: Tue, 24 Mar 1998 08:15:46 -0500 Does the person who was taping the Rainravens at SXSW happen to be on this list. Love to talk to you or anyone else who might have taped these guys at anytime. My mics went south the first night of the festival, and I wasn't up and running until Friday morning thanks to the gang at American Digital. Also looking for anyone who might have taped the Doolittle Records Party at Club de Ville. Mike

From: ntracy@amoco.com (Norman P. Tracy) Subject: re: Digital audio *is* older than you think Date: Tue, 24 Mar 1998 08:37:39 -0600 I read in the English mag Hi-Fi News and Record Review that digital audio was used for military radio transmissions in World War II as a form of code. So we have: digital radio = 1940s, digital musical instrument (organ) = 1967 patent, 1971 production. Anybody know when & who made the first digital hi-fi audio recording? First I recall was Dr. Tom Stockholm sometime in the 1980s. Norman Tracy

From: pkmin@rsc.rockwell.com Subject: Sound analysis Date: Tue, 24 Mar 1998 12:13:12 -0800 If one is recording a "more or less" constant sound (or for that matter vibration)source (IE very little dynamic range) and wants to do spectral analysis (with the ultimate goal of relating them (sound and vibration) to the bigger picture (which includes materials' properties, overall design, etc). While it might be better to max out the record levels (IE so that the recording comes out more or less say like 0.5 dB below "Over" throughout) as there are more bits, I'm wondering if its necessary. IE:it may be more trouble than its worth since you now have more data than perhaps is necessary. Can someone with spectral analysis knowledge comment on this? Basically I'm wondering if it might be advantageous to have the recording average about 12dB below "over" instead of maxing it out so that its just below "over" throughout..............Thanks, Pete

From: Jsemmler <Jsemmler@aol.com> Subject: ISO Ratdog Akron 97 Date: Tue, 24 Mar 1998 17:52:15 EST My buddy's portable DAT went screwy about 20 minutes into the concert and I was curious to see if any other readers of this digest happened to tape the show or know someone who did. Plenty to spin if you can help us find a copy :-) Joby http://members.aol.com/jsemmler/tapelist.txt
From: 120db@rift.com Subject: Broken Angles Date: Tue, 24 Mar 1998 18:20:26 +0000 I have a spare clone of 11-6-97 Broken Angles w/ Phil Lesh and others. I am also trying to locate a pair of GD shows (10-8 and 10-9 1989). I am looking for audience recordings ONLY ! Brendan 120db@rift.com
From: fus <fus@erols.com> Subject: Looking for Chocolate Genius, 1/29/98, CBGB Date: Tue, 24 Mar 1998 18:50:32 -0500 Medeski & Wood, and more importantly to me, Vernon Reid, were guest musicians. I know somebody here surely must have recorded, or know somebody who recorded this gig. I have tasty tidbits to offer in return. My friends & I were barred from entering because when we got there, the room was already filled to capacity. Ethan
From: daniel.estrin@chadbourne.com Subject: Galactic Atlanta 3/21/98 grovel Date: Tue, 24 Mar 98 19:19:50 -0500 Howdy all - Hate to grovel but a friend just returned home (to N.J.) from a weekend trip to Atlanta where she caught Galactic for the first time on Saturday, March 21. Now she is dying for a copy of the show. The six other Galactic shows I have simply won't do...she needs THAT ONE! If anyone made a nice recording of this show I would really appreciate it if you'd contact me. I have mucho digital hours (primarily dead, phish, JGB, ABB, moe., Dylan, MMW, other jazz, etc.) and I will make it worth your while. Thanks in advance. Shalom, Daniel Estrin
