From: Yevgeny Morozov <r5014502@rsamd.ac.uk> Subject: Error rate at D100... Date: Fri, 2 Oct 1998 17:24:13 +0100 Recently my old D8 was stolen, and I decided to get a new D100, which seem to be a good choice for me, because the every time I saw D8, I felt very bad 'cause I missed it so much. Anyway, once I enabled it error count display facility, and found, that all the tapes recorded on D8 and DTC690 showed near zero errors, even at the very beginning of the tapes, but my new tapes, made on D100 show more errors, than those made on D8. The rate on D8 taoes were 0 - 2, here I have constantly >0, around 2-7, even 10 sometimes. I used the same tapes all the time, clean the heads every time I record (which do not seem to make any difference ). However, some tapes, made on studio equipment, like Panasonic and Tascam, show the same, if not bigger error rate. One channel on my D100 always shows slightly more errors, than the other, which tends to stay on 0, or 2 on those tapes made on D100. If anybody knows, what is the normal rate, and why I have those varuations, please answer here, on D! ! AT H eads Digest. Thank you.

From: Brian Dowling <euphoria1@mindspring.com> Subject: Digital EQ's Date: Fri, 02 Oct 1998 21:17:31 -0400 I think this topic has been discussed previously, but time has elapsed since its last surfacing. I am trying to locate a digital equalizer than I can run between 2 DAT decks or in sequence from DAT>DEQ>HHB CD recorder. I am trying to keep all digital hear, but have found really few decks available for this, besides using computer software, and computer CD writeables. I have found a few models all by Yamaha, and I was wondering if anyone has any experience with these models. They are: Yamaha YDG 2030 Yamaha YDP2006 Yamaha DEQ5 Yamaha DEQ5E- expander of the DEQ5 Reading their literature, it appears to me these are more used for the stage sound in sequence rather than home stereo sound. They are somewhat pricey but would like to hear opinions prior to purchasing such equipment. The Yamaha DEQ5 looks most promising. Thanks for the space. PS if anyone has Alex Sloley's current email address I would like to contact him, but his current email has been bouncing. Thanks again. Brian

Most likely this is because you have not split the tracks on a frame boundary (1/75 sec). Zeros are added to fill out any partial frames and can be heard as a click. I use CoolEdit for this purpose, getting a readout in frames and zooming in close enough to see the individual samples. > Secondly, the music I chose came seconds shy of 74 minutes, yet it told > me that the file was too large. It is a live show that I'm burning down > from my DAT, so I opted to simply eliminate one song, rather than cut it > up. Am I to assume that I can only burn something slightly less than 74 > minutes? As stated in a previous response, ECDC does not calculate without the 2-second gap between tracks even when you select DAO. But, all CD-Rs I've seen have at least 74 min of space. If ECDC says OVERTIME, continue with the burn process and it will read the actual amount of space on the disc. Sometimes these extra seconds over 74:00 will be enough to overcome the DAO calculation error, and the burn will proceed. One time I did have to resort to using Nero to burn a very long DAO disc.

From: Seth Breidbart <sethb@panix.com> Subject: Re: AES/EBU <-> S/P-DIF? Date: Sat, 3 Oct 1998 01:08:52 -0400 (EDT) > What's the easiest/cheapest way to interface AES/EBU equipment to S/P-DIF > machinery? (both ways) 1. Just get a cable with the right connectors. That will usually work (more often AES/EBU to S/PDIF than vice versa, but probably for both). 2. The cable with a transformer to adjust the voltage; that will work a bit more often in the S/PDIF to AES/EBU direction. 3. The only _correct_ way is with a format converter like the Digital Domains FCN-1, but that's relatively expensive. Seth
From: Yangkun Zhang <zhany@ils.unc.edu> Subject: Sony repair problem w/ RM-D3k Date: Sat, 3 Oct 1998 02:52:15 -0400 (EDT) I have a similar repair horror story regarding Sony. My RMD3k unit broke last winter, leaving me unable to clone any DATs. I sent the unit to Sony for repairs plus the money... then, I hear nothing. NOTHING. I call and ask about the unit, and was told that it was "out of stock" and that they cannot repair it. They will contact me with further info. Nothing was done--no one called me. So, finally about calling them continously for about 1 month or so, they said that they are finally sending me a replacement unit. I finally get the package, and they SEND ME THE FUCKING REMOTE CONTROL! The RMD3K consists of the RMTD3 and RMRD3, the former the D8 adapter box, and the latter the remote control for the adaptor box. I've sent in ONLY the RMTD3 of the RMD3K kit--and I get a REMOTE CONTROL BACK! I call them, and complain for another month--trying to explain in vain to EVERY SINGLE person the difference between the two... it was, to say the least, painful. So, the end of the sory was about 3 or 4 month after I sent in the original unit--they finally simply sent me an entire new RMD3K kit, with a new remote AND box. I didn't need another remote control, but so long as I get a replacement box. I will NEVER buy another Sony product if I can help it--especially something having ANYTHING to do with their DAT decks. Oooo. Yangkun Zhang (UNC) ) / zhany@ils.unc.edu (_/ http://www.ils.unc.edu/~zhany/
