According to a Usenet post I just found, purportedly from a Dolby guy (
http://x15.dejanews.com/[ST_rn=qs]/getdoc.xp?AN=415143072&search=thread&CONT
EXT=923615834.803012678&HIT_CONTEXT=923614909.793116765&HIT_NUM=33&hitnum=5
), DVD-A will have a Red Book (regular audio CD) option, but they don't
talk about it very much because it adds to the cost and it is "as yet
unproven". The poster alledges that there are benefits of high-rate PCM
over Sony/Philips Direct Stream Digital (DSD) for SACD, but the post
doesn't specify what they are. (One benefit of DSD: It can resample to
virtually any PCM rate without the lossy qualities of PCM resampling. This
should make it very usefull in the studio someday, even if SACD doesn't
make it.)

Date: Thu, 8 Apr 1999 18:53:48 -0700
Hey guys,
There are a couple shows down at Santa Barbara that I was hoping someone
might be interested in taping. They should be good shows, anyway.
The first is Lapdog, on April 10 and 11 opening for the Maides at Club
NYM.
The second is Glen Philips, formerly of Toad the Wet Sprocket, also at
Club NYM on the 18th. He's playing wiht Matt Nathanson and Ellen Turner.
AUD taping is allowed at both.
If you like music like toad the wet sprocket, you should like these
guys...I'm too busy those weekends to make the drive.
thanks,
allan chen

I Have one of these and was the one who told Scott about them. I bought
mine from a University library fundraiser for $135 at auction and thought
I got a good price. $10.00 is a Steal!!! The drawers are adjustable using
metal sliders. 60 drawers = 32 DATs per drawer. They sit sideways and you
don't have to remove the brass bar that runs down the center of each
drawer. The drawers on mine are dovetailed hardwood. Very nice
construction. The brass plates on each drawer are worth $7 each new.
Card catalogs are a very unique way to store DAT tapes. Definately a
conversation piece!! The ultimate in recycling. They don't work Quite as
well for cassette but it does work. You have to take the rods out.
Shipping would be a problem because they are heavy as lead. :(

In what ways is it better? I happen to like caddies, and was planning on
getting a PlexWriter 4/12max, but my main concern is the quality of the
audio burns. Since it seems that 2x is often the best speed for burning
audio CDs, the 8x drive didn't seem to offer me anything. But if the new
drive can really produce better quality CD-Rs, I'd be interested.

Reply-To: ChillyBe@aol.com
Date: Fri, 9 Apr 1999 02:23:25 EDT
Went to the SCI show 2 night ago at The Majestic - Detroit, MI, and had a
blast... Taped the show... house sound guy was tending the board... didn't
really see a any SCI personal at the board once the show started... not sure
if this is protocal for them or not. The Nutter donated rig running that
night was pretty dissapointing... Not sure who was responsible for the
"patch bay"... Whoever it was asked a kid standing in front of us not to let
anyone set up a stand in front of the board... Saw him on the side of the
stage during the show... Not a very pleasant person. He was running
Earthworks SR77??? Asked the crew and they had no idea exactly what kind of
Earthworks... into a TL Audio stand alone pre-amp.. never heard of it... had
nice knobs though... He said the Lunatech the band uses blew up... **Kick
down a new one Marc** ... Mics were placed 25-30 feet from stage about 12ft
high... The levels were WAY too low...like -30db.... sound ok once you turn
your stereo up to like 6 or 7... too bad cuz Karl Denson was tearing it up
...levels come up a lil bit a few songs later... I am sure that our taping
of the band isn't the soundmans top priority, but if your gonna delegate
that we either tape behind you (no FOB) or from you (patch Bay) it would be
nice to have a consitently good mix... The soundman should be capable of at
least getting that together for the fans/tapers (we all listen to the
tapes). I don't think thats asking too much for a little consistency...
There were 10 or so tapers patched into the SCI patch bay who have mediocre
at best tapes of that performance... I heard the tapes and I am being
generous when I say they are mediocre... Fortunately I was not held back by
debacle of the Bay.. nor the confines of the Section... But for those who
are its not fair to have to play the lottery to get a decent tape. Anyone
have troubles with patch bay? Just curious... Please save your flames for
someone who cares... No holy wars please... Just my .02 cents...

Hello All!
I'm still looking for small capsules like the DPA 4022 (cardioids with attached
cable) or more like the Sennheiser MKE40-60, my ideal size, to experiment with
(home-brew battery box, etc).
The cardioid capsules should work with about 9-18V (I'll use one or 2 9V
blocks) and have a high maximum SPL. I just need the capsule (with wire if
possible). No power supply, etc, etc.
What brand/type do you recommend?
Please let me know.
Greetz,
