I believe that cassette house's (http://www.cassettehouse.com) 5-packs of
DDS 90 meter tapes (HP-manufactured Seagate) that are on sale this week for
$7.50 ($1.50 each) are probably the best deal around. I use them
extensively and have had no problems at all with them. Now if someone could
explain the numerous problems I have had with blank TDK MiniDV tapes...but
that's a bit off topic.
All The Best,

$2.25 for sony dds 60 and 90 meter (DG-60P and DG-90P) from
http://oade.com works better than any deal I have ever heard of, also I
think cascade will match that, their info was posted here recently. . .
http://www.cascademedia.net/cgi-bin/cascade/dat is the link.
Disclaimer: I am not an employee of either company and personally have
never heard of cascade before, although they have a very
professional-looking website. I have been dealing with the oades for
over five years, and been very satisfied with everything they've helped
me with. I would go to them, as they have a history of being leaders in
the field of portable remote recording and they're also really cool
guys.
Further ideas- for audio grade tapes, the HHb's (DAT-125) are of
excellant quality, I suggest Full Compass in madison WI
http://www.fullcompass.com or the aforementioned cascade. Full compass
will match advertised prices and are also very professional, I have
dealt with them here in madison for several years, and althought they
are kinda corporate, they can get good deals for you.

trying something out here, and right now i'm having some problems, so maybe
someone can help out. i was converting my DAT master to CDR but the burner
keeps flashing "cannot record" so i'm assuming this is an SCMS issue. i
taped the show on a Sony TCD-D100 and am playing the tape on my sony
PCM-R300 > optical cable > Pioneer PDR-555RW. the tape used is a Sony
Pro-Grade 125 minute tape. any help is appreciated. thanks!

Subject: Pink Floyd '94 tour
Date: Tue, 1 May 2001 18:17:05 -0400
hey folks,
I need to upgrade quite a bit for this tour. There
were about 110 shows, I only have about 15-20 DAT
clones (most of the rest I have on cassette).
Anyhow, my objective is get a clone from each show
of the entire tour. Tall task, for sure, but it'll
be fun trying.
So, if you have any DATs from the 1994 Pink Floyd North
American and European tours, please, please, please get in
touch. Have lots of old Floyd to offer. No CDR, please.
DAT trades only. Known digigen and gear info is a huge plus,
as I collect multiple sources.
Best,
Anthony

I'm getting some intermittent digi-noise on playback from my

tape. Can anyone *enthusiastically* recommend a shop (or individual)
to take it to for a tune-up?

i am thinking of getting an used
Audio Technica 822 or 25 to disassemble & turn into 2

onstage taping....mostly doing this to be descrete...
as well as low cost & outa site...maybe for some FOB's in bars....
i reallylike the results of the AT22,25 @ close range.

Take back your Schoeps San Jose sources. Take back your Charlotte km140
sources. Take back Joe Piscapo.
So anyway...
just back from U2 at minne, Target Center. From God's lips to your ears.
Offering in trade; U2 at Target Center Minneapolis MN 5-1-01
Aud, FOB, DFC. Recorded using Shure Beta98 w/rpm108 card caps>sound devices
mp2>pcm m1
FYI, a recent post suggested taping from the heart was an ideal location.
WRONG. Due to the odd, overhanging PA set-up you'll come away with crap.
Mid-floor just outside of the heart or side stage is a better spot. If
you're running cards aim them to a point high above the stage.
ISO U2 from the current tour, only. Will offer this up for general trade or
tree it at some point in the future. Please no grovels in the meantime.
CDR only. I dont want the wear on my DAT recorders. Send me a note with U2
Minne as the subject along with a list of your masters or sources from the
current tour.
WARNING:You'll want to be sitting down when you push play on your cd player
for this one. I take no responsibility for those who do not heed this
warning. Suggestion: pop in disc 2, listen to Bad and Where The Streets
Have No Name first to cleanse the pallet, then pop disc1 in your player and
go from there.

Anyone use these?
I'm thinking about trying out a matched pair. The MC012's or the
KM201s, not sure which yet and that is where I need the feedback.
The 012s come w/3 sets of capsules, where as the 201s only come w/one
set and are around $300 more a pair. The sound room, which is the only
distributor (??) calls the km201s the "cream of the crop" and favorably
compares them to the neumann km184. They claim superiority actually.
Has anyone used/heard the KM201's before? Ive got several recordings
from the MC012s, and I think they sound excellent. Very excellent for
the $$.
Any opinions would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks all.

Date: Wed, 02 May 2001 12:00:59 -0600
I got one of the Radio Shack Power Packs
(23-047) that people were asking about
last week. Had to order over the net, as
none of the stores in NYC had them in stock.
The unit is pretty neat, it is a bit smaller
than an M1, has selectable 2, 4.5, 6, 7.5
or 9 Volt output, weighs a bit less than the
Sonic Studios BC-1 C-cell with alkeline cells (13 oz).
I have been running my M1 now for eight hours
on the 4.5 volt setting, on record. Still
going strong. The pack heats up a lot when
charging, but has temperature and voltage
sensing cut-offs. I let it charge until the
charging light went out, used it six hours
yesterday and started up again this morning.
The use light should go from green to red
before it shuts down, I want to see how much
warning it gives before the M1 shuts off,
but 8 hours cuts it for me. The unit
comes with a case that clips to a belt, and
various tips ("B" fits the M1 okay, but I
may try to get a dedicated cord that feels
less flimsy - make sure you get the polarity
correct!!).

Hi,
I'm about to buy a Sony TCD-D7 portable DAT to use with my Core Sound
Binaural mics. The plan is to record concerts at some summer festivals,
where the volume tends to be quite loud.
Do you recommend connecting the CSB:s to the TCD-D7's mic-in using an 20
dB attenuator cable, or is it safer to use line-in only?
Is there anything about using CSB:s with a TCD-D7/8 you think I should
know?

Just wondering what security has been like for the
Mark Knopfler shows thus far, especially after hearing
rumors that he's not against fans taping (though apparently
not to the extent of officially endorsing this either :).
How has the sound quality been for his tour? (guess this
partly depends on the PA system at the particular venue)
Thanks for any thoughts on the above.
