Dalton clearance sale!
I'm on my way to stealthing down, so my 4011's are on the hit list. I'm
pairing down to the 4022's.
With that thought in mind, here is the deal. I'm selling the 4011's (orig.
price $4500), plus the Audio Magic Sceptor II cables (orig. price $150) and
the AT8410 shockmounts (orig. price $100) all for $3300 firm. I'm losing
almost $1500 in a little over 2 yrs. All of this equipment was bought new
from Sonic Sense (11/98) and I have reciepts to verify. Alot of you know
the sound that these incredible mics produce and I hate to part w/ them,
but.....
Either way, thats the offer - hit me when your ready!
BTW - the 4011's are a FACTORY MATCHED PAIR, they cost me more, but they are
totally the same mic.
Thanks All.

Since the Terratec EWX 24/96 only has optical TOS-Link I/O (no SPDIF coax),
you'll need a coax-to-TOS-link converter first.
I think you can get 7-pin to SPDIF cables from Core Sound and/or Oade. You
may find a cheap coax/TOS-link converter at your local radio shack.
btw: I think I'll buy a Terratec EWX 24/96 sometime next week. I'll report
to the list how it works.

Hello All,
Just wondering what people thought about this:
Is it safe to do other things on the computer (i.e., go online, print cd
covers, etc.) while recording from my dat to my hard drive? Might this
introduce unwanted errors, glitches and such?
Thanks!!

I've got a pair of DPA windscreens that I've used with great success...the
glaring exception is last years Telluride Bluegrass Festival, where we
walked with mucho windnoise on our tapes.
I'm aware of the tradeoff between loss of quality and thicker
windscreens. What would be the next step up for wind protection for a pair
of Neumann KM140s? I've decided that I'd like phasey, flat, wind-free
tapes, rather than my sub rattling pictures off the walls whenever there's
a gust of wind on my recordings....
Thanks!

a taper ticket. Quality copy of the show will be included in the trade, of

Subject: DPA 4051 vs 4060
Date: Tue, 17 Apr 2001 05:59:27 +1000
I have been using the miniature DPA 4060 mics for ambient
location sound recording for 4 months now. Although they
sound very good 90% of the time, they still have a bit too
much self-noise for the really quiet stuff.
So I am thinking of getting the larger diaphram, quieter
spec DPA 4051. As I don't do rock'n'roll, high SPL issues
aren't a consideration here.
Anyone else use these? Opinions / gotchas? Too sensitive
for general use? Too delicate for the rough-and-tumble of
location work?
Regds,
Andrew Nemeth

Date: Mon, 16 Apr 2001 13:32:09 -0700 (PDT)
I recorded U2's performance at the Rose Garden in
Portland, OR last night. I found a sweet spot dead
center, between the soundboard and heart ramp. There
were very few people in this area. So, I would
recommend it for anyone taping shows in the future.
Here is information about the taping set-up:
SP-CMC-10 Hyper-Cardioids>SP-BPF-2>Sony D8
The recording turned out nicely with minimally close
crowd noise.
I am looking for other DAT recordings by U2 from
the Elevation Tour in trade for this show. Please
contact me if you have recorded a show or have plans
to record future shows.
Thanks for the space!

It's *necessary,* but it's definitely a good idea, especially when doing
S/PDIF transfers. It is in your best interest to shut down all unnecessary
programs when executing an operation of this nature. The goal is to prevent
anything from "popping up" and using system resources while you're in the
middle of a critical operation. The virus checker (I assume it's on a
schedule) can be activated after you're finished.
If you have an SCSI burner, you don't have to worry about programs running in
the background, however, if you have an IDE burner like a good number of us,
shutting down unnecessary programs (especially ones that tend to perform
resource consuming operations spontaneously) decreases your chances of buffer
underrun. In my experience, running certain programs while burning is okay
(word processor, "light" web browsing), but that varies depending on your
system specs. It is always prudent to avoid *launching* any programs during
the burning process.
I highly recommend that you do not run anything during a S/PDIF transfer
though.
Here are some helpful tips: www.celestialaudio.com. It doesn't cover
everything, but it does cover a lot. Hope this helps.

Mark is cool with taping, but not up to putting it in writing or forcing
it on venues. Here's a quote concerning it (from the tapers-filmners list).
I have a copy of the letter, just not handy at the moment:

Hello,
This info might be of interest for some of you, as I was asked several times.
Mark Knopfler's management doesn't bother if fans tape the concerts. But they
are not ready to provide a written autorization or proof about that. It has been
their policy for 20 years now...
I have an e-mail from the management I can forward to anyone interested, but it
just says what I wrote above.

Thank you

When recording real-time streaming SPDF from an external DAT
machine through the sound card, I leave it alone rather than chance
getting a corrupt file and having to do it over.
But, when using the Seagate DDS drive and DAT2Wav (which writes
to the HD as a background process), anything goes. I can edit files,
play audio files, burn CDs, etc.
This is all using Windows NT40 Workstation and dual SCSI controllers
on a fairly spiffy system. Your mileage may differ with other hardware
or operating systems.
There is no modem in my audio computer, so can't say for sure
about that - but better be safe than sorry.

Hi,
I was able to tape Roger Waters 8/4/99 at Great Woods (Tweeter),
but unfortunately I missed the first three songs of the show. I was
wondering if anyone here taped it and would be willing to either setup
a trade or b/p the beginning portion for me?
Now that I am groveling I might as well go the whole nine yards and
ask if anyone happened to get an in-house FM DAT copy, that is my
source. It would be great if an AUD source turned up that was taped
under the Pavilion though. After I get the whole show together I can
offer it up for blanks/postage.
Also, while I am at it, does anyone know if Robert Plant will be allowing
taping on his upcoming spring tour? Finally, anyone have an SBM-1
laying around that they no longer get any use out of? Thanks for any help!

Hi,
I recorded to nights of this 5 date concert season.
Guests included Eddie Vedder, Ed OBrien/Phil Selway
(radiohead), Jonny Marr (the Smiths), Sebastian
Steinberg (Soul Coughing, Beth Orton) and Lisa
Germano.
Here is some information on the discs:-
I recorded Thursday nights show 5-4-01 and Friday
nights show 6-4-01. Both shows are on three discs each
broken up into 1st set, 2nd set and encores. Thursday
(5-4-01) runs for 159mins and Friday (6-4-01) runs for
176mins. The 1st set on Thursday was recorded half way
between the sound desk and the PA towards the right
hand side of the stage, all the rest of that night and
the following night was recorded about 2 feet infront
of the right PA stack. Heres how it made it to CD.
