From: "Adam Klein" <klein@fas.harvard.edu> Subject: FS: barely used Sound Professionals premium AT853 mics Date: Sun, 23 Sep 2001 17:49:32 -0400 (sorry to those who notice this is a repeat post...) Sound Professionals premium matched AT853 cardiod mics with alligator clips, 2 interchangeable hypercardiod elements, the premium battery module w\bass roll off, and the belt clip. These are a great little set of mics, in mint condition. I've sold my DAT deck, so I have little use for them now. They've been out of the box literally only a few times. Detailed info is on The Sound Professional's web pages, and I've listed the prices found there: http://www.soundprofessionals.com/moreinfopages/cardioid/spcmc3_4.html (SP-CMC-4) $179 http://www.soundprofessionals.com/micaccess/batterymod.html (SP-BDF-2 premium) $79 + $7 for clip http://www.soundprofessionals.com/micaccess/elements.html (AT-AT853H-ELE) $80 I'm hoping for ~$300. Thanks, Adam Klein klein@fas.harvard.edu

From: "Dan Greenberg" <letitgro@warwick.net> Subject: extra Hot Tuna & Persuasions 11/19/00 on DAT for B+P Date: Sun, 23 Sep 2001 18:00:44 -0400 This is for the Hot Tuna & Persuasions sets at Albany, NY on 11/19/00. They were recorded w/ DPA 4023 mics. Both sets are on one Sony 60m DAT. In return, I'd like a sealed Sony or Maxell 60m (or 90m) DAT plus postage. First to respond after the Digest hits my mailbox gets it (unless you're willing to do B+P's for others, which I would give preference to...in which case tell me how many you're willing to make). -Dan-

Curiosusly I had been thinking about this issue this last week when I had to increase the levels of a 16bit tape which was recorded very low. I wanted to prevent additional quantization noise from happening. Multiplying by a factor of 2 is an immediate solution as the bits don't get altered, but why not just multiply by any integer number?. No "rounding" will take place in this case as well and I can't see why this is wrong. Unfortunately, using cooledit for this task does not seem to work well. If I multiply by, say 400% and then by 25% I don't get the same bits as in the original file. What software should be used? Javi
From: Robert Seals <rseals@telerama.com> Subject: contact or surveillance mics Date: Sun, 23 Sep 2001 18:54:04 -0400 Hey heads - I'm attempting to do an installation piece for a collaborative art exhibition, and intended to put a couple of mics outside and broadcast the world into an interior space, but the people that own the building say I can't breach the wall. So, I'm wondering how I can accomplish that. I thought about some contact mics on windows, but I'm not sure if that would work. Does anyone have any ideas about how to get sound from "outside" into "inside?" I'd really appreciate any thoughts. Thanks - Robert

From: "Paul Gibian" <ikoiko2u@home.com> Subject: Grateful Dead Dats Offer - Round 3 Date: Sun, 23 Sep 2001 21:57:14 -0700 Hi, This is Round 3 of my Dats for CD blanks offer. Since 1997 I have traded dats, primarily Grateful Dead. I am converting my dat collection to cd. This is the 3rd batch. I will not break it up into smaller batches so please don't ask. Round 3 goes to one person. If someone wants to get a quick start in the GD dat world this is a great way to do it. I'll accept three (3) Taiyo Yuden blanks for each dat. This exchange is well below current market prices for new dat blanks (as published at various sites, including TTapes.) I will pay postage to ship the dats to you for continental US only. Dats are Maxell labeled, unlabeled, or Sony DDS. Some are 60m, some are 90m. All have printed j-cards with song lists, lineage, etc.. Lineage is as it was provided to me at the time of trade. Caveat emptor, these are great tapes, however, they may have the occasional anomaly. I acquired them primarily through trades on BUDD and other credible sources... The following 47 shows reside on 50 dats. Several shows are filler on tapes. Several of the dats have filler not listed in this posting. This in exchange for 150 cdr blanks. If interested, please use the following in the subject field: Grateful Dead Dats Offer - Round 3 Thanks.

From: "J. Steven Svoboda" <arc@post.harvard.edu> Subject: Questions re Burner and DAT Repairs Reply-To: "J. Steven Svoboda" <arc@post.harvard.edu> Date: Mon, 24 Sep 2001 15:40:15 +1000 I am sorry but I have what may be some relatively naive questions but I would greatly appreciate any sage advice anyone can offer. Can anyone recommend a good DAT repair place and a good CD burner repair place, whether they may be the same place or different? I am in the Bay Area but if it's better that I send it elsewhere I will do that. The only problem with my burner is that I can't seem to get it to record off an analog source and never have been able to since I bought it. I have tried using various amplifiers and both the XLR and RCA inputs, without getting any signal at all. Does it seem likely the analog recording hardware could have been faulty when I bought the deck? I have a Marantz CDR630 burner and a Panasonic SV-3800 DAT deck. Regarding the DAT, is it true what some DAT repairpeople have told me that using 180-minute DAT tapes can cause the tape to "shed" due to the heat of operation and gum up the works of a DAT deck? Finally, if anyone thinks it better I buy a new burner and/or DAT deck and trash one or both, please let me know what you recommend I get. Apart from the analog channel, I have had no problems with the burner, but my DAT deck seems to go into the shop every time I turn around. Steven Svoboda

From: Keith Shapiro <keither@torilive.org> Subject: Tori Amos taper needed for SLC, Seattle (ticket provided) Date: Mon, 24 Sep 2001 08:57:51 -0400 (EDT) Hi! I am still looking for someone to help me out taping in Seattle and Salt Lake City. Tori Amos is embarking on her very first SOLO tour since 1994. As an archivist of her work, I'm trying to ensure that every show on this historic tour gets recorded on DAT. I've found tapers for every show but the following two: 6-Nov Salt Lake City, UT Abravanal Hall 9-Nov Seattle, WA Paramount Theatre I have already purchased tickets (orchestra) for both of these shows. I will also be willing to cover other incidental expenses for a person who is available to tape one of these shows. Please note, Tori does not allow taping so you will have to tape stealth. If you're interested in a peak at what her sound on this tour will be, please check out my archive site, the T.O.M.B. at: http://www.torilive.org/ There's an MP3 linked from the front page from her most recent concert in London (about a month ago), and links to download the complete show as SHN. Thanks for your help! Keith -- Keith D. Shapiro keither@torilive.org http://keither.dreamhost.com/

From: kevin baker <baker1023@yahoo.com> Subject: stealthing Date: Mon, 24 Sep 2001 10:03:58 -0700 (PDT) I realize how trivial tis is considering what's going on in the world. But this is forum for such discussion and I haven't seen much on it. I'm wondering what everyone is thinking about stealthing and the seriously upgraded security we will probably be seeing in at least the short term future. Will every venue have metal detectors and/or wands? A friend of mine who doesn't tape saw Tool in Mansfield last weekend and said there was no way I would have gotten past security. I plan on seeing and attempting to tape some U2 shows this fall and don't know what to expect. The first of which is in Canada, where I REALLY don't know what to expect. Has anyone attempted to tape any shows in the last few days? Please share any info you might have. Thanks. __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
