From: "Bob Silver" <rsilver@gate.net> Subject: Lighting for Black Crowes Date: Sat, 27 Mar 1999 13:51:45 -0500 Last night I went to the Black Crowes, in Sunrise, Fl. Two points of interest from last nights Show, Lenny Kravits showed up to watch the Show, he didn't play gh:( And tapping me on the shoulder before the show an old friend of mine, that I've seen at many a Phish Show. Chris Kuroda was doing the Light show. No Phish didn't fire him, just seems he has to much time on his hands. What a show! Anyone interested in a tape or CD of this show, E-mail me. Peace, Boca Bob Silver
From: Richard Hammond <rlhammon@niia.net> Subject: ISO: Jewel 7/16,18,& 19/96 Date: Sat, 27 Mar 1999 13:45:35 -0600 As subject states.. looking for these Jewel shows July 16th, 18th, and 19th of 1996. The 7/16/96 show was a radio show event.. WDST Backyard Bar-B-Q. The 18th and 19th shows were some sort of Fan (Club?) affair. I know it exists on DAT.. I have a 1st gen. of this on tape, but would prefer DAT or CD-R. If you have this.. I have lots of offer in return. Rich rlhammon@niia.net

Help spread this music through the grass-roots DAT movement and squash every last bootlegger!! ******************************************************************* ATTENTION: I am offering to sell CD's, not for profit, for charity! I've been doing this ever since I read that the farm Aid people didn't rerun the phish portion of Farm Aid on CMT because they said that the least amount of donations came in during the Phish set! I set out to prove them wrong. So far I've raised over 600$ for Farm Aid,(I offered my Farm Aid SVHS tapes to whoever sent me a Blank Tapes, and a donation made out to Farm Aid). And have not received one reply or an acknowledgement from The Farm Aid People, So now I'm offering DAT, CD, or whatever anybody wants, in return for a check made out to one of PHISH'S Charities: Wishing Well, Mimi's Glaucoma Society, or whatever anyone can suggest, I just started this so I don't now were to go with this, as for how much would be a reasonable amount to donate for one show. I would supply the CD's, and would hope people would send me Postage to get the music back to them. I have a nice Collection, which grows daily, all my collections are Clear, digital recording. Any help with suggestions to improve my ideas here would be greatly appreciated. THIS IS OPEN TO ALL RECORDING MEDIA, SO ALL YOU UNIDECKERS, GROVELERS, AND ANALOG TRADERS, FOR LESS THAN THE PRICE OF A BOOTLEG ALBUM.

From: Bayard <walden@eclipse.net> Subject: stereo problem copying D7>ZA2 Date: Sat, 27 Mar 1999 22:10:02 -0500 (EST) I'm moving DATs onto a hard drive via a d7, coax cable (core sound) and the ZA2 card, and recently a strange problem has begin to occur. sound files copied in this way exhibit sudden drops/increases in one channel, like someone instantly switched a pan pot all the way left or right. it's not a complete dropout but very noticable. It happens many times throught a sound file. It is noticable both in sound forge XP and the CDR after it's been burned. had anyone experienced anything like this? ANY ideas would be most welcome. thanks in advance. ps. it's not the particular d7, as I have tried two different D7's. it happens with and without using the 44.1khz zefiro resampling. =b

I have heard that they are quite nasty to tapers when caught. If anyone has some experiences they'd like to share or some tips specific to the club I'd be glad to hear them. I have never been there before.

From: Mark Sorrentino <idocmark@buffnet.net> Subject: CSB - line in/mic in? Reply-To: idocmark@buffnet.net Date: Sun, 28 Mar 1999 03:00:07 -0500 There seems to be a lot of confusion about whether to use line in or mic in when taping with CSB. Here is what I have found after taping about 40 shows with CSB/battery box/bass roll off into a D100. I usually tape from around the SBD or off to the side of the SBD. I taped line in standing next to the stack once, it came out awful and even with earplugs it was much to loud. The shows that I have taped line in are almost all inferior sound quality to the shows that I taped mic in. Shows taped line in are excessively bassy and levels only peak from -8 to -12db. These shows taped line in can be improved with EQ and normalization. Shows taped mic in usually require no or very little adjustment. With the D100 I have never overloaded the mic pre amp. My levels usually end up around 4. I know that Len says to start line in and if you don't get good levels then tape mic in. However now I always tape mic in. Should it be to loud for mic in then I would switch to line in (this has never occurred). I know this is good advice for the the D100/M1 but this probably doesn't apply to the D8/D7 because of the difference in mic preamp. Two other words of advice with the D100: Use lithium batteries - I can tape for about 6 hours on a pair. I may use the included rechareable or alkaline if I know the show will go under 1-1.5 hrs. Be careful with the level adjustment knob it is to loose, so it can be knocked by accident easily. Keeping the leather case on seems to decrease this likliehood. Mark

From: "Stoker, Aaron M." <StokerA@missouri.edu> Subject: Another CD-R Question Date: Sun, 28 Mar 1999 11:01:12 -0600 Hello all-I have another question about a problem I have been having with making CD-Rs, and since I got such great help the last time I thought I would ask this one. When I do disc at once, the music records just fine, no gaps between songs and now I don't have the pops either, but when I play the CD all the way through the CD doesn't reset. What I mean is that it just stops at the end of the last track without going to the next CD in the player or resetting and displaying all the tracks on the disk. When my friend recorded some stuff Track at once(I think that is what it is called) with the same programs and equipment the CD resets normally. What could be the cause of the problem. Is there a code that should be at the end of the cue sheet that I could be missing. I don't know much about the system since it isn't mine, and the person who is helping me has never done DAO since he doesn't do the live show thing. Thanks for any and all help, and for the band width. Aaron Stoker stokera@missouri.edu
