From: Les Irvin <les@jmdl.com> Subject: ISO: Tapes of Dylan's current tour Date: Tue, 24 Apr 2001 12:08:03 -0600 Looking for DATs of Dylan's current tour, especially Boulder and Lincoln. Thanks! Les
From: GaoBest@aol.com Subject: iso Pet Shop Boys musical 5-15-01 london Date: Tue, 24 Apr 2001 14:10:53 EDT hey kids i have no idea what they're doing, but apparently 5-15-01 in london there is the debut of pet shop boys musical, which is intriguing. I knew I should have subbed to a PSB list. But if anyone here goes and tapes it, I'm interested. Actually I'm also ISO any dat clones of recent PSB gigs incl '94 Australian tour, I have clone of '99 Houston as well as my own Dortmund '00 master, and an FM b/c of Glasters '00 master (55 minutes). big thanks mike bwt - cdr copy of old psb '91/'94 gigs from analog tapes
From: GaoBest@aol.com Subject: iso aimee mann/michael penn at bimbo's (SF) recent Date: Tue, 24 Apr 2001 14:15:15 EDT Hey everyone A friend of mine went to the show, I thought it'd be a nice gift. I have a Til Tuesday gig (analog tape first gen from D5 master) from 9-84 in New Hampshire, which has about 50% unreleased songs and an early version of "voices carry" - it's your basic bar-band type concert, but quite nice. So I thought it'd be a nice trade offer, but of course other trades are fine, I just need that married couple's Bimbo's gig. Thanks! ta mike bwt pink floyd oakland 5-9-77 (90m required) dcl - always a gem to hear... and why not, they even played careful with that axe eugene! alternate: 2-11-70 birmingham (best concert ever, but lousy analog recording) - my 2nd-generation analog tape from poorly-copied first-gen tape, T120 <ewwww>...
From: Nick Georges <nick@nickspicks.com> Subject: anyone tape with AT mics? Date: Tue, 24 Apr 2001 14:11:47 -0700 Not the Sound pro 853's or related, but the normal size condensers? The AT4051 or 4053a is what I'm talking about. I've never seen them used for field recording before. I once used the sound pro 853's and thought they were very nice for $180. I'm wondering what a $1000 pair of AT's might sound like. -- *** www.nickspicks.com ***
From: GaoBest@aol.com Subject: iso recent SF Pavement gigs Date: Tue, 24 Apr 2001 14:20:50 EDT hey everyone I finally have cloned my below Pavement analog audience masters to dat: 5-19-92 cattle club sacramento (only audience taper) aiwa & ECM929LT 5-10-93 old ironsides sacramento (only audience taper) marantz & mic 3-18-94 l'aeronef lille and 3-19-94 vk bruxelles (one of many aud tapers) D3 & PC62 anyway I'm trying to get dat clones from recent SF pavement shows, 1997 onwards, if possible; also have other Pavement but all on analog tape, from 1991 to 1995. Plus have about 300 dats with other materials. But I figured SF pavement tapers/traders might prefer to swap for Pavement/etc. sorry for asking for so much stuff at once. mike gaobest@aol.com bwt: hall & oates, primarily analog tapes of assorted concerts as well as one or two dat copies from analog masters. or Orchestral Maneuvers in the Dark, about 3 hours worth of material that can fit onto 90m dat.
From: other1@azstarnet.com Subject: HQ/low-cost digital I/O soundcard? Date: Tue, 24 Apr 2001 11:24:02 -0700 I'm just wondering what options there are these days in a good quality low-cost digital I/O card? Is Zoltrix a recommendable product?... or, in the long run... is one better off spending a bit more on a card? I have an HHB PDR1000-TC DAT recorder, an HP 9150i cd-writer, and an older pc with a Pentium 200 processor. Of course, I'm going to have to get a new mother board, chipset, and processor at some point... so, compatibility is vital. Many Thanks, Michael
From: "Zac Williams" <zacwilliams1@home.com> Subject: DMIC 20 technical question Date: Tue, 24 Apr 2001 13:34:21 -0700 Hey everybody, I recently purchased a AKG480/ck63 -> DMIC20 -> D8 setup and I am wondering about what to set the Sensitivity to on the DMIC20. When I taped my first show (the Flecktones on 2-10-01) I set it to -35 and quickly found out that that was to high. Then I moved down to -30 and that is still to high. I just wanted to know what those of you who are experienced with this (or similar) setup usually set this to. Any help would be appreciated. Email me at zacwilliams1@home.com thanks, Zac CD-R list: http://www.bama.ua.edu/~willi052/digilist.htm

The Line input impedance is much higher than the mic input and completely eliminates the effect of the bass roll-off filter, hence your extra bass. That's why we don't recommend using the Line input, but rather (as Mark notes) using a 20 dB attenuator cable into the mic input on low sensitivity (really low gain -- the switch on Sony recorders is not an attenuator but rather a low gain setting). I hope this helps!

From: Michael Kreidler <michael@alternet.org> Subject: FS: Lunatec V2 (egads!), MG m300, Eco Charge Sigma, accessories Date: Tue, 24 Apr 2001 17:08:17 -0700 Hey all-- I have subscribed to this list in about a year, as I have been removed from the taping community for quite some time now. I'm looking to offload some of my gear, as I am downsizing my rig. Unless noted, all items are in excellent condition, most having not been touched since august 2000. Items for sale include: --Lunatec V2 pre-amp by Grace Designs: Rarely do you see one of these things for sale on this list; it's reputation precedes it, so I won't waste my time explaining what a powerhouse little unit this is. It is in excellent condition, maybe with 25 hours on it, tops. Bought for $1300 in spring '99; sell for $1000 now. --Matched pair Microtech Gefell m300 w/ wooden Jewelers boxes: I see this on here time and again, and I think they're a great value for the dollar. Paid $950 in spring '99; I'd be happy with $650 on the pair. --Eco Charge Sigma system, 6 volt: I used this guy to power my M1 and V2 setup. Again, maybe a total of 25 hours usage on it. $100 with the charger and cables included, of course, would do me just fine. Plus other smaller accessories: --Pair of Whirlwind 20' XLR cables: $50/pair --2 AT8410a Shockmounts, showing some wear: $60/pair --2 DPA UA0896 Windscreens: $25/pair --Shure a27m mounting bar: $20 --12' Bogen stand, thumbscrews, with boom (no backweights)...i'll toss in the thread adapter and a gooseneck: $60 I'd prefer to sell the entire thing as a package, but the reality is that the V2 will be the most sought after commodity.

From: ZAndersson@aol.com Subject: ISO some Richie Havens Date: Wed, 25 Apr 2001 00:23:02 EDT I caught Richie on easter Sunday in Colo. and felt really privliged to see the man who opened for the ORIGINAL woodstock festival. I'm hooked now, and since it seems he's anti-taping I have ask if anyone has a nice AUD/FM or SBd....preferably from sometime in the last 10 years. Peace, Zach
From: GuySonic@aol.com Subject: Re: M1 and 6V power / Date: Wed, 25 Apr 2001 01:00:27 EDT In a message dated 4/24/01 11:08:13 AM Pacific Daylight Time, DAT-heads-Request@datheads.phish.net writes: << ---------------------------- From: kmstraker@mindspring.com Subject Trade for Phil 4/20: M1 and 6V power / Date: Mon, 23 Apr 2001 17:04:12 -0400 Hello all, I saw a thread in a recent post that said that it was ok to use a 6v rechargeable on a 4.5v M1. If you use a 6V power source you will fry a small switch in your deck. You will then be unable to get power from any source, even internal batteries. I have had to have my M1 repaired twice in the last two years with this problem. Finally I dumbed up and bought a battery with the correct voltage. Prodigital has fixed my deck fast and fairly cheap (<$100) both times. Trade offer: looking for PHIL 4/20 Have 4/19 Asheville to trade. Sonic Sense rig:mbho603a/ka500>ad2k>V2 (asheville) ------------------------------ >> 6 volt external input is very much within the limits for non-stressful operation of the D100/M1 decks. I don't know what your particular problem was, but I know for sure (after providing powering for several thousand D100/M1 DAT decks in the last 5-6 years on exactly 6 volts with NOT even 1 problem, ever), that 6 volts is very OK for these decks as they do work with an internal switching supply that may handles much greater than 6 volts input without problem. Your deck was not failing from applying 6 volts as this is acceptable for these decks, something else was not right with your deck and that's for sure. Perhaps one of the power supply components was way off specification and just failed from not being correct in the first place. Applying 6 volts just pushed this weak component to cause failures in other components, but the faulty component remains active in your deck and may cause more failures quickly only under applying a little more input voltage. I'd have your deck's power supply components thoroughly checked as something is not working correctly, just a matter of time before it breaks again for no good reason if this weak component is not found.

How well do they work out for you? I have some shows from these mics and they sound pretty darn good! I was wondering about the consecutive serial numbers on them. How many of you use the KM140's that have consecutive serial numbers? How many that use them with serial that are way off? Are there any sound differences (if any) between the two? Thanks for any info! Peace Dan
