Subject: Looking for WHO Trades
Date: Tue, 29 Jan 2002 15:31:31 EST
Hi All,
I'm an experienced analog tape and CDR trader, a month ago I purchased a pair
of DAT decks, and I'm looking for some low gen DAT trades. My main area of
interest is in The Who.
To offer on DAT I have some master clones of Who/related shows from '89 ->
'96 in the Denver area, from a taper that's a trading buddy of mine. A
friend of mine also sent his '89 Who cassette masters (very good stereo
recordings from the North East) which I have been transferring to DAT. I
also have a couple of Clapton and Jeff Beck '60s shows on DAT.
If anyone's interested in a Who DAT trade email me privately. Clapton's
projects from the '60s as well as Mick Taylor era Stones are also of interest.
Thanks,
Rob

Subject: Sound Forge Resample Questio
Date: Tue, 29 Jan 2002 15:51:16 -0500
Hey Now,
Quick question for the group.... I'm in the process of putting a bunch of my
buddies DATs onto CDR-- my equipment is Sony M1, Audiophile 24/96 and
SoundForge 5.0. Here's the question:
A DAT that I just put onto the hard drive was labeled as 48.0 khz, so I set
the sound card at 48.0. Come to find out, the tape was actually recorded
at 44.1 khz. If using Sound Forge, I resample the WAV file that was
inadvertently recorded on the HD at 48.0 to 44.1 will I be screwing things
up?
Thanks much,
Pete
PS, as I'm a 'Digestifer', please email me directly if possible at:

Subject: FS or Trade: My D-5 for a preamp-slash-ad converter...
Date: Tue, 29 Jan 2002 16:24:00 -0500
I am in need of a preamp\ad converter and a phantom power supply. Rather
than going about selling my Fostex D-5 and using the money for them, I
thought I would see if there was anyone who upgraded or was considering
upgrading to a better preamp than, say the Zefiro Inbox and P2 power
supply, who needs a really fine DAT deck. I've been using it primarily as a
play deck, and sparingly at that.
I don't want to go through ebay if I can help it, so I will sell the unit
if I can't get a bite for a trade - make me an offer!
take care,
Clancey

Mint condition ad 1000 with ps 1000, two 12v batteries, two chargers, manual
and two 15 pin breakout cables. Unit was serviced by apogee last march, new
word clock, 3 new front pannel pots, new lights, and latest version of the
eprom, revision d.
This is as good a unit as anyone could find anywhere. Make me an offer.

Subject: weird question regarding diginoise
Date: Tue, 29 Jan 2002 21:58:04 -0500
hey guys,
I'm just sitting here bored and I was wondering something.
Normally, when I receive a new show on DAT I give it a good
listen. If I hear diginoise, I quickly check the error counts.
If the error counts are high at that spot, I ask for a re-clone.
If the error counts stay low, I don't bother because I assume
my source's DAT has the diginoise, as well. But, I'm thinking,
is this necessarily true? Let's say my source's playback deck has
dirty heads and plays a normally clean tape improperly resulting
in diginoise, that noise appears on my clone of course, but do
the error counts on *my* copy reflect this?
So, could I have been wrong all along in assuming that since
my DAT w/ diginoise has no error problems, my source's dat
has the diginoise too?
Its not a major issue in my life, but I'm very curious
as to what you experts have to say on this matter. Thank
you, sirs!
My best,
Anthony

hello again,
a couple of weeks back, I ventured to lovely old England from NYC to
see David Gilmour at the Royal Festival Hall. I came back with
3 nice DAT masters. The 1st two nights are a bit too quiet during
the early acoustic parts, but I fixed that a bit by the third night.
All are quite nice and worth getting if you're a fan.
I'm mainly looking for dat clones of DG's shows in Paris the following
week (jan 23 and 24th, I believe). Video would be super, too. I'd
also accept master/lowgen>dat from David's 1984 solo tour, Roger Waters'
'84 '85 and '87 tours. Also, a couple of people have asked me to find them
a copy of Roger Waters in San Antonio 2000, so if you have that, get
in touch with me. I actually need the San Antonio gig myself, but since
my Waters 2000 DAT collecting pretty much slowed to a crawl, I haven't
had the inclination. With that said, I'd like to get back into it,
so if you taped, or have 1st clones of Waters on DAT, I'm in need.
As far as Pink Floyd goes, I'm pretty well set for 67-74, but I'm
looking for masters from the 87-89 tours.
Send some lists or links. Thanks for listening.
Best,
Anthony

Hi,
I'm after some advice on troubleshooting a D100.
I had problems with this unit which once submitted
for repair, has resulted in a 10 month saga which
I'm really keen to resolve.
The unit has now been repaired by a Sony approved
dealer to the tune of - new head, head amplifier
and tape guides - but it still doesn't work correctly.
1. It seems to take a while to load the tape and
spends a long time 'grumbling', sometimes it sounds
almost painful.
2. I used a Maxell 60m data tape to record a gig
which came out blank. Now I know some decks have
issues with Maxell tapes but mine has never had a
problem with them before the repair and has never
recorded a blank tape before in 3 years of use.
3. I noticed that when I recorded the above mentioned
blank tape and then unloaded the tape from the machine,
the mechnism hadn't quite put the tape back in the
cartridge.
5. The engineer now has the unit back and also notes that
the machine is hesitant on rewind and when it FF's over
tape ID's it very briefly drops the envelope level from
the tape. Does this signify anything ?
6. There appears to be only one (unrelated) reference article
to the D100 in the Sony database - can any other Sony repairers
out there confirm this ?
7. The tape tension is set up as recommended but there
seems to be drag on the head - is this expected on a
new head ?
Any hints greatly appreciated as we seem to have hit a
bit of a wall on what to do next.
thanks
Wayne Ellis

No, it isn't.

That's right; or it's inconsistent. (I've had dats that play fine on
one deck, but show diginoise on another.)

I still haven't made up a decision on the mics that will replace my Nakamichi 300s. A fellow sent me some stuff recorded with Oktava mc012s, and it sounded quite good. How do the Shure SM94-LCs compare??? I'd kinda rather buy them, as they are made only about a half hour from where I live. ---Not just to buy American, but service/replacement parts should be quite convenient. Any help would be greatly appreciated!!!

Subject: re: hiding tracks on a cdr
Date: Wed, 30 Jan 2002 09:40:10 -0800 (PST)
I got lots of private email advice on this topic; thanks all!
This is just a follow up in case anyone is interested.
The working solution i found last night was to set Nero up to
burn the disc as CD Extra (thus putting the data into the last
track, and in a separate session) rather than as a Mixedmode
CDR. I had mis-read the Nero help file and thought that CD Extra
wasn't supported...
As far as I could tell, Nero doesn't allow you to write a track 0
(as was suggested as another method of hiding data); nor does it
seem to allow you to write a track 1 with a negative index time
(which would also hide the track, according to some suggestions).
Summarizing: burning in CD Extra mode allows you to add data
(label art, text description, pictures, etc...) to an audio cdr
in such a way that the data is invisible to an audio cd player,
but visible to your computer cd drive.
cheers!

Subject: new cdr burning question: TAO vs DAO
Date: Wed, 30 Jan 2002 09:43:49 -0800 (PST)
This may be something specific to Nero...
Since you can set the pause between tracks to anything you like
(obviously, using 0 for a disc of live material), is there any
reason to go with DAO over TAO or vice-versa?
I'm presuming that this is inregards to burning a disc where all
of the source material (audio and/or data) has been preassembled,
so that the disc will be finalized as soon as the material has
been burned onto the disc.
thanks!
