Subject: ISO: Oktava Microphone
Date: Sun, 14 Feb 1999 17:32:08 EST
HI,
I'm considering my options concerning purchasing my first pair of
microphones, and i saw some Oktava mics at my local Guitar Center store. They
have two pairs of mics, a small diaphram cardiod condenser (for $149 each),
and a large diaphram cardiod condenser ($199 each). The salesperson I talked
to said that he tried out the small-diaphram condensers head to head in an x/y
stereo recording with the small diaphram Neumann's (the little black ones) and
the quality was nearly as good if not equal.
Each mic has a -10 db pad and a 50hz high pass filter, and the frequency
response on each is 20-20k.
What should I do. I'd love to be able to get a pair of full size mics, but
I don't know if I can afford a good stereo preamp and phantom power supply
with them. Would these mics sound good (better then the SoundPros AT851's for
example)? Which (inexpensive) preamp could I buy, keeping the package between
$600-700 including mics and preamp?
E-mail me with responses and post.
Thanks,
Ethan in Cranford, NJ

Hi,
I need a volunteer who
A: likes Sublime tunes
B: can burn CDs digitally on a PC
I will send my master (MK4s>BRbox>SBM>D8) to you if you have time to put
this to CD. The right channel developes some gnarly static about halfway
through the show probably due to one of the 9volts in the pre-amp
running out (sometimes I am too stupid to be worthy of running this
gear) so the left channel will have to be spliced in on the clone. Ah
well, live and learn.
Send e-mail if you are up to this task....

Subject: ISO Mic Stand
Date: Sun, 14 Feb 1999 20:46:25 -0330 (NST)
Hi, I am currently looking for a mic stand for taping. I'm interested in
getting a stand that is relatively portable and can be extended around 10
or 15 feet. The stand will be used with a pair of Nak 300's to tape
bands in mostly small clubs.
I went searching through the archives but had limited success. One
stand that did get mentioned a number of times was the Shure S14A stand.
Can anyone comment on this stand or others? As well, where would I go
looking for these mic stands? Will I be able to find them at a pro
audio shop, or is there a reliable mail order service out there?

Hey fellow moe.rons out there!
I am desparately looking for a moe. show from 4/14/96 at Smith's old bar in
Atlanta. I've looked at the moe.links setlist homepage and it doesn't even
have a setlist for this date. I know there were a few tapers there that
night and more than likely would live around Atlanta.
The big thing I remember about this show was during "Seat Of My Pants" when
Rob and Al were moshing on stage during the heavy thrashing jam.
Apparently Al knocked Rob off the stage by accident sending Rob, bass and
all, plummeting to the floor. The dude landed right at my feet. (I think
Rob was slightly drunk that night ;) He was okay and got back on stage and
they all continued playing. Pretty wild sight though!
Anyway, if anybody has this tape (DAT or analog, I don't care), I'll trade
anything off my DAT list for it. In fact, I'll even trade the show from
last night, 2/13/99 in Athens. Really killer show!! (Played Zappa's "San
Ber'dino" for the encore :)
Thanks for your time.
Peace and music,
Brian

David, re:

created to cut the impact of flamewars--they created a separate bulletin
board for them. The managers could move entire blocks of posts from one
category and put them in another. >>
Please! GEnie's BBS's in that area were run by a bunch of inbred surf nazi's
who thought that calling Picard "a silly bald captain" was a crime against
humanity. Some people may feel comfortable having several low IQ'd morons

I don't know of the taping policies of any of these groups, but Oregon
should not be missed. The group has been together well over 20 years;
the founding members were also original members of the Paul Winter
Consort. Their music is more melodic than swinging. The rhythm is
generally stated on tablas and carries that Eastern (further than
Pittsburgh) feel. Looking backward through time, some might class them as
nascent "world/world beat" music, but their musicianship, discipline, and
group dynamic springs from their jazz backgrounds. Ralph Towner will show
you a whole new world of possibilities for the acoustic guitar.
iso Oregon, solo Ralph Towner, Paul Winter Consort performances
(especially in California) - for that matter, any Egberto Gismonti, Jan
Garbarek, others of that ilk?

a couple issues back or so, somebody asked whether or not manufacturers
other than Phillips and Tascam made 'dual-deck CDR's'. I've been using a
computer drive for a little while now, but have wanted to free my
computer of this somewhat time-consuming task. so i've been wondering
the same thing... or, more specifically- why is there not a dual-deck
machine with digital i/o, no SCMS, and no need to fool about consumer
CDR's?
are there any alternatives- any way of getting better results with one
of these or other machines?

need to FF a little bit. It'll have already gone through it's =
slow/warm-up FF mode and be right into the fast FF. After about 2 =
