Subject: "Baking" DAT tapes
Date: Fri, 22 Jan 1999 16:34:27 -0500
I am sure most of us have heard about the old trick of baking certain reel to reel tapes to fix shedding problems, etc. Well, I have a DAT story that you may find interesting.
I received a copy of dead 3/29/85 on a new 90 meter Maxell. The first time I played it, it had three little digi-glitches in the first song. They next time I tried to play it, only two glitches were heard. Well, I was making a clone the second time around, and decided I might as well let it run, since it looked like my original was going bad. After the clone was done, I noticed that my deck (a denon DTR-80p portable) was quite warm to the touch, the result of it being on the shelf above my amp. The tape was also quite warm. I then decided to spin another clone (for a trade) and lo and behold, all of a sudden the original tape played through without errors. It appears that the 3 hour "baking" that the tape went through on the 1st clone, fixed the errors well enough so that they could be read. This litle trick might come in handy for tapes that appear to be slowly going bad as well.
Anyone else run into this? Also does the 64 times oversampling feature on this deck have anything to do with this result? Or do all DAT decks have oversampling. I have noticed that my 2 denons will play tapes without audible distortion that my other decks (a Panasonic 3800, and an AIwa home model) will not. Any comments about what may be going on here? Seth?

Hi Guys,
What's up? Here is the DAT structure for the 9-11-74 tree. The DAT
structure should come out next weekend. Seeds have been mailed to both top
branches. Thanks to the generous dubbing commitments by the DAT branches,
this should be a fairly fast-moving tree
SETLIST:
This is the second set to 9-11-74, and it's like a companion piece to Dicks
Pick's 7, which features material from the same night. It goes like this:
Seastones >
Eyes of the World >
Jam (this doesn't get it's own track on the CD, but it's definitely not
Eyes any more)>
Wharf Rat
plus Around n' Round from the third set.
Any questions? Just send me an e-mail at Kingfish@itw.com
Take care,

Subject: help with purchasing a DAT deck
Date: Fri, 22 Jan 1999 14:26:15 PST
I'm looking to purchase a stealth DAT recorder and a home deck.
I'm looking at the:
sony pcm-m1
and
PCM-r500
Any feedback from any of you who have experience with these decks?
Do the dual DAT decks make good clones?
Does sony make any dual decks that the scms can be....whats the right
word here...... ignored?
What should I be looking for in a deck I will most likely keep for the
next 5-7 years?
And, whats the difference between 60m and 90m tapes? I'm new to this
and all I can relate to this is 60 min VS. 90 min analog tapes. I would
like to record for 2hrs. at a time at the highest possible quality and
will most likley be using the portable deck to make clones if I don't
buy a dual deck.
Cables?
Can SCMS prevent you from burning CDs from the "infected" tape?
What are some ways around this?
Any help is GREATLY appreciated!!
thanks in advance,
jesse.....again :)

Hey DAT heads,
I made a CDR for a friend of mine (hey geppie) and it plays fast. I used
my d7 and the ZA2 with sound forge XP. Could the sample rate be a little
bit screwed?
Also - I'm looking for a good CDR-heads type digest. Anyone know of a
list like this for CDR?
And I'm making a DAT-Hate page. Anyone wanna contribute? :)

Is anybody going to be taping the shows in Hollywood (1/26 through 1/31)?
If so, I'd sure LOVE a copy. Plenty of JID to trade as well as other stuff.

<< please, please everyone must stop the email and phone calls immediately
or
I will contact the proper watchdogs concerning this site...which I'm sure,
will be of interest to them as DAT and cdr transfers are the desirable form
of higher quality bootlegging. if for several days I do not receive any
correspondence concerning this i will forget the whole thing ever happened
and NOBODY is bothered. i wish it didn't have to come to this but im sick of
being bothered! thanks and THINK about it.... >>
Boy, talk about stupid...........you are the one who is trying to sell 'legs
and your going to turn us in? HAHA, fat chance they will care about this
forum, and if they do it gets shut down and a new one (or two or three) will
start........how would you like a $10,000 dollar fine for every tape for
sale? Or maybe a little jail-time would do you some good.....
You need to grow a spine, and maybe even a heart..........your
pathetic.........even if a few little punks harass you.
My advice to everyone, THINK before posting a message, a lot of people are
gonna see what you say...............

I'll have to vouch for Jeff since I bought one from him back in September.
It's such a great feeling not having to deal with buying all of those AA
batteries and worrying about breaking the spring if I take them out too
fast. I've used it for about 10 shows so far so it's already well on the way
to paying for itself.

I am a native of Santa Barbara, and would OH-SO-LOVE to go to the Dave and
Tim show at the Arlington on Sunday, March 7, a dream concert. But, alas, I
am here in Cambridge, MA, at school, with no chance of getting home for
just this one event. Plus, I have a volleyball match that day, but that is
another story. Anyway, what I am searching for is someone who would be
willing to record this concert (DAT preferred) for me. I WOULD ABSOLUTELY
BE ETERNALLY GRATEFUL. I have the capability of going DAT (or MD) -> CDR
digitally, so I'd definitely make copies of this concert for any and all
that would like it.
The only catch is someone to record it.
Please email privately,

Subject: HELP! My deck is running fast
Date: Fri, 22 Jan 1999 23:04:41 -0600
I am hoping someone out there can maybe offer me some advice...
I have (2) Otari DTR-8S's.
The one that I am using solely for recording was bought in the 2nd week
of November from the DAT Store as a floor model in their Thanksgiving
sale. Since then it has around 100 hours on it.
Tonight as I was dubbing a tape I noticed that the record deck was
running faster than the play deck. It sems to be running about 30
seconds faster roughly every 30 minutes.
Since it is Friday evening, there is nothing I can do until Monday
anyway, so i was hoping that someone can offer me some sort of advice,
wisdom, saving graces...anything, really as I am freaking out over
here. I don't know if this says anything about the DAT store's floor
models or what, but I was told that the deck had basically no hours on
it and had merely been used as a physical display so that customers
could see what was inside the box.
Any advice on this matter would be extremely helpful and appreciated.
Thanks,
Eric

Subject: D8 tape ripping...Help, Please!
Date: Fri, 22 Jan 1999 23:16:21 -0800
Was reviewing some tapes on the D8, all going fine, when suddenly it
wouldn't go past LOAD...when I pressed PLAY, nothing would happen. Upon
opening the lid to remove the tape. it had ripped in two. Thinking this
was a unique occurrence, tried another tape...this time same thing
happened, except tape had been pulled out about 3 inches, but not
ripped. After having this happen on 4 tapes, decided maybe some kind
fellow tapers could give me a clue as to whats happening..is there
anyway to manually rewind dts with loose tape hanging out? Is there
anything I could try at home to correct this? Have a few other home
decks, but Marleyfest coming up, and need to use the D8 for that
one...any help would be much appreciated!
Thanks in advance,and for the bandwidth!

I record a small local jazz band twice a week in a small club

Hey,
I have this funny noise on a few of my tapes. It is like a pop or
distortion when the music gets to a high point. I was wondering if it was a
problem with the DAT its self or my reciver or speakers. I dont think that
the problem could be on the DAT cause it was recorded with nice mic's
{Schoeps CMC641}. Could anyone provide any help?
