From: manesh.chudasama@gecm.com Subject: DAT -> CD s'ware / sound card suggestions. Date: Tue, 22 May 2001 08:27:38 +0100 Hello all, I am currently in the process of finding a suitable digital sound card to transfer my portable DAT material (SONY TCD-D3) to the HD of the PC then intimately burn a few CD's on my Yamaha CD-RW. After conducting some research, I think I'll be purchasing a sound card purely for this digital data transfer and keep my existing sound card (Soundblaster 16) for the other PC requirements. A product that seemed to get good reviews on some of the sites I visited was the Digital Audio Labs CardD Digital sound card. Has anybody used this and do they work well? I have a PII 233MHz PC, with about 2Gigs free on the HD and 98M of memory. I only want to transfer the material, maybe make a few edits, then burn a CD and delete the images from the HD. Can anyone also suggest s'ware for making edits to the sound file?...Sound Forge / Cool edit? These are satisfactory right? I am new to the DAT scene, but regularly attend live concerts / small private gatherings in the UK and would like to record this material for my own personal collection. Any views / recommendations would be extremely useful!!

The 416 is a shotgun mic typically used for speech dialog pickup on movie sets, etc. It is one of the most widely respected mics for its purpose. They have a built-in presence rise to help dialog intelligibility. They are probably not the concert recording mic of choice as they would exhibit spotty pickup at a distance and the possibility of comb filtering due to the design of the interference tube would make an odd sounding stereo recording at best.

(find a nice, simple and cheap CPU that can > interface with the drive, some controls (level, start/stop)...) Very few laptop drives are 3.3V capable. Most of them need a 5V rail. This means you need at least 6V of supply (4 AA batteries). The ones that ARE 3.3V pull about 393mA. That means you're looking at a bare minimum 1200mA-Hour battery supply. IIRC, most rechargables are in that range. However, that's just power to run the drive for 3 hours. (The 5V drives typically pull about 420mA when active.) What about the associated electronics? 64MB of RAM falls in ~100mA. Assume another 100mA for your electronics and a minimal LCD. Suddenly, for a 3 hour show, you're needing 1600mAH of battery capacity at 3.3V (which is still 3 AA batteries). That doesn't include an analog stage. Ouch. Now, note that these are worst-case estimates, but I'd hate to walk into a show and have my batteries die with 5 minutes left in the set. I am still thinking about a design for this. Features include: * 24/96 capability * High performance ADCs * S/PDIF in/out among other things, which I'm not willing to post (in case I do decide to build one of these). Time frame for the design and layout/etc would probably be about a year, though. There are a lot of knowledgeable people here, though. Perhaps we could make it a group project. :) I doubt, however, it could be DIY. Most low power processors and components are surface-mount, or (even worse) BGA. You can't just slap them into a Radio Shack breadboard anymore. Keith --- Keith D.

First person to send a link to their list that has something I would like to obtain gets it. The show was from the Electric Factory in Philadelphia on 12/2/2000. I recorded it myself with the following rig: 3 Nakamichi CM-300's (cp4/cp1/cp4) > Nak. MX-100 3 mic. mixer > D8. The show is on one 60m and one 90m Sony DDS tapes.

Since I have read here in the past couple of months that DATs are going away ( 3rd time in as many years ) why are there not blow out sales? I have read that the manufacturer's have raised their prices to the vendors( hence us consumers) but I would figure that if DATs are dead every manufacture would want to get them off the shelf. I have been waiting to buy a couple more portable decks for venues around me that are willing to tape shows when I cannot be there, but I am not paying more for something going out of style... Any comments vendors ???????? Peace, Michael __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Yahoo!

Date: Sun, 20 May 2001 02:35:16 +0100 I'm thinking of getting a minidisc recorder as a sort of second-line machine (I know the audio isn't up to Dat standards!) Does anyone have a specific portable they'd recommend. I understand there are one or two new models with digital out. I'd also need the 20db cut input setting and the ability to alter the record volume without stopping the disc. Any thoughts appreciated! Bill ------------------------------ >> Many DATheads use or are considering the MiniDISC as a backup recording deck. I suggest avoiding ALL portable Sony Minidisc decks as they lock out real-time manual REC level adjustments and recent Sony MD models give even less indication if the MD deck mic input is setup to easily overload. Consider ANY SHARP portable minidisc as excellent for having all the needed features for live recording level controls. A few AIWA MD decks are also very good with having these exact same needed recording features. I have stock on two Sharp MD models; MD-MT20 & SR60 run off NiMH or regular AA akaline cells. Setting mic input sensitivity on MD decks is a bit different than with DAT. Sonic Studios Web site has a recording TIPS page and all the needed information on getting consistant results with DAT and minidisc decks with mics without risking getting input overload distortion.
