I've posted this before but didn't get a definitive answer. Let me try to
reword my question.
Dats are high maintenance. I want a small hard drive unit for field
recording. The Archos Jukebox is a nice concept, but is "lossey" as it
records MP3 only. Creative is about to release the Nomad 3 which records WAV
via a 1/8" analog/digital in (sounds just like a Minidisc). Looks like it
might be what I'm looking for.
A digital signal... what is it and how does it become an MP3 in the jukebox
or a Minidisc recorder? And a WAV in the upcoming Nomad?
Is it irrelevant what the piece of equipment is that accepts a digital
signal? Minidisc, Archos, Dat, computers.... do they all accept the same
type digital signal from my Zefiro Inbox? I know I've used my Zefiro on a
Minidisc and a DAT. Is it simply the bios in each device that converts the
digital signal to either an MP3, WAV or whatever?
I'm just trying to figure out if reading that the Nomad 3 has a 1/8"
analog/digital SPDIF in and records in WAV format would it be a substitute
for my Sony D8. I move everything to CD so all I need is 44.1-16 bit. Does
it sound like the Nomad will be a potential live recording unit?
Thanks!

For Sale: one pair of Sonic Studios DSM-6S microphones with the PA6LC3 power
supply and bass roll off. Bought originally in May 1995. Works flawlessly,
in good condition. Paid $550 then, asking $400 or best offer.
Serious inquiries only. Ship via UPS insured.

Good opportunity for someone to get into surround-stereo stealth recording at
a bargain price; also note it's rare to see a DSM-6S/L mic for sale. This
same mic set may also be LiteGUY baffle mounted to 12 foot heights when not
in stealth mode; 18 feet heights possible with available mic cable extension.
Brian's purchase date was (actually) May, 1996, serial # 2204; In-Warranty
plug repair in NOV, 1997. NOTE: DSM mic sets may also be refurbished to
look and operate as-new for $100 service cost.
Mic Model is equivalent to DSM-6S/L (Currently $450). PA-6LC3 (currently
$200) reduces bass at 45, 85, 170 cycles (slide-switch selected).
This mic system works for recording up to and including very loud Rock venues
directly into the MIC input (only, with no liability for deck input
overloading) of any portable deck with 3.5mm stereo jack.
Well worth Brian's asking price.

Basically correct, although it's not the BIOS per se but the entire
operating system/software combination in the device that determines what
kind of file the digital data stream becomes.

Yes, definitely. The original Nomad Jukebox was also a potential live
recording device, but the new one looks significantly better since it
accepts a digital input whereas the original was analog line-in only with
less than stellar A/D conversion. It also had short battery live, no
level meters, and a propensity to lose files at the drop of a hat. It
remains to be seen how many of its problems have been overcome in the new
device.

and was wondering what to expect when I go there this week. If you've got

I bought one of these last summer. I'm using it on a computer that I
use for a Audio Workstation. When I got it, I looked at the list of
Operating Systems it could be used with. XP was not on the list. I
have another computer with W2K. I'm not using the Ego Sys on that,
because the rest of my Audio software and hardware is on the computer
with Win98, and the damn W2K computer I got is a damn Dell that came
with W2K, and my copy of W2K can't be installed on any computer but a
Dell. Pissed me off how they rigged that. Anyway, I guess to expect
any hardware made by small companies to work with any OS other than the
one's it was compatible with when purchased is not reasonable, IMO.
Most of these companies are pretty small, and upgrading drivers, I'm
sure comes
behind getting new products to market in their priorities.

I am looking for people who DAT taped any of the shows on the Strange
Little Tour (North America or Europe). I would like to trade for DAT
clones of these shows. I am especially looking for the following North
American dates:
31 October, 2001 Houston, TX
06 November, 2001 SLC, UT
08 November, 2001 Vancouver, BC
09 November, 2001 Seattle, WA
I am also interested in clones of shows that I taped, if you taped the
show with a better rig. I taped 25 dates on the North American leg of
the tour (DPA 4061>D100), so I have quite a number of masters that I
could trade (along with a few other artists like: Cowboy Junkies, Ani
Difranco, and others). LMK if you want to set up a trade. Thanks,

hi,
i've got a sony DTC-700 deck giving me trouble. when playing a tape, you
can see the spindles start and stop, sometimes get slow. the music
sputters, come back, sputters. they also dont seem to turn in sync
sometimes. one seems to spin, the other is still, then plays catch-up .
seems to FF and rewind ok. i thought it was a tight tape, but i tried a few
and its not just one tape. is this common? if it needs service, whats the
best way to go? i live on long island, NY. there is a guy near me ,
starlight repair. he does DAT, all sorts of stuff, but someone told me they
had a bad experience there. there is another place in setauket, In-house
service. they fixed an MD deck for me once, no problems. maybe i should i
send it away for repair, and is it worth fixing? thanks!

hi,
anyone have any george harrison material? i've a decent amount, but 90%
of it is outakes and demos of All Things Must Pass material. dont get me
wrong, i absolutely love the ATMP stuff i have, because its tracks that phil
spector hadnt yet gotten a chance to mash all together. i hate that " wall
of sound" crap he did, to me it just muddled some awesome musicianship. i'm
looking for stuff from later in his career; demos, radio station
appearences, maybe live shows if they dont have that "everyone on stage
playing all at once " arena sound that some of them tend to. honestly, i'm
still in mourning and feel a need to hear things from him that will be new
to me. i feel so bad about him. i dont think anyone was more prepared to go
than george, but its so sad that he went so hard, and the last years of his
life were such struggle. sorry, i'm rambling.

I've been experimenting with using this program to downlaod
RealAudio files (rather than streaming them, so indepent of
traffic and server speeds) of archived radio shows. The quality
is OK--nothing special, and certainly not good enough for
concerts. Fine for listening to radio. Some excellent interviews
with musicians, for example.
Anyway, does anyone here know how I might be able to use it at,
for example, the Morning Becomes Eclectic site?
Normally, at least on less technical sites, you just copy the
link and paste it into Streambox. The program then follows the
link to find the real target file. But at MBE, and some other
sites, this doesn't work. The link to the RealAudio file looks
like this:
http://kcrw.com/cgi-bin/ram_wrap.cgi?/mb/mb020117Psyco_On_Da_Bus
and Streambox can't get to the real file. It downloads a little
nothing of about 1 kb, declares it a success, and stops.
So, any idea how to get past this hurdle?
Thanks,
Olaf
