Subject: Soundcards... Is there a FAQ out there?
Date: Tue, 19 Mar 2002 13:10:35 -0500
I've recently purchased a Sony M1 deck and just got my digi-cable. My plan
is to pull my DAT's into my computer via an older SPIDF CO-Ax card. I was
working under the general assumption that digital is digital and therefore
a transfer from the deck to the PC would be perfect regardless of the
hardware involved since it should just be a multitude of 1's and 0's.
In conversation with others I'm finding that this might not be the case.
Can some one point me in the direction of a resource for this type of
material or at least give me the $.05 tour of sound card ins and outs?
Peace->

Date: Tue, 19 Mar 2002 14:39:24 -0500
Hey Guys,
In an attempt to tape Pat Metheny Group on Trio ( a
cable station here), I had quite a bit of difficulty
getting a signal. The box has coax digi out. I first
tried my PCM R300, which has coax in, but couldn't
lock on a signal - got an "unlock" message. Ok -you're
saying maybe the digi out is broken on the cable box.
But I have an old SCMS stripper that was telling me
that I was getting a 48 signal out of the box - makes
sense to be (as opposed to 44.1). I then tried coax
into my DTC-790, to no avail - same error message.
Anybody have any ideas? Is this a Sony thing ?
Thanks a lot,
Chris

Subject: Taping Policies for 311 and Dashboard Confessional
Date: Tue, 19 Mar 2002 17:27:34 EST
Hey all. Through my meager connections I've cleared up a few things about
these bands' policies.
311- According to their management and publicist 311 strictly forbids taping
of their shows of any kind. Now I saw them on 3/13 and there was no security
pat down and i noticed mics on some sbd equipment that didnt look like they
belonged to the soundguy. That being said if i had wanted to i could've
gotten a decent stealth rig in no problem.
Dashboard Confessional - Actually I'm friends with a number of guys in this
Vagrant band and Chris' policy is he does not NOT allow taping. Meaning if
the venue is cool with it he is cool with it. Meaning no House of Blues etc.
Stands and bothering the soundguy arent really encouraged but you can have
your gear in the open. Kind of like pavement was.
hope that helps.

I appologize for the non-DAT content, but I'm in a bit of a bind and I figure that an audiophile type crowd is the best place to go for this. I need to raise money quick to make a deposit to secure a full scholarship to law school so I'm selling a set of Rockford Fosgate Punch Z 10" woofers in boxes. These are beautiful subs that I've been using with my home theater setup. I'm looking to get $150 for the speakers and a 250 watt 2-channel amp, but I'm certainly willing to negotiate.

Hey, all. I'm selling my set of Core Sound Binaural mics, along with their

the small velcro pouch that I use to carry the mics and battery box. These
mics have been used with great results. They are in good working order, and
show only moderate wear. I will entertain all offers for this package, but
the first offer of $200 will take it, shipping included. Thanks.

Subject: Creative Soundblaster EXTIGY (USB Sound Card) re-samples Digital I/O
Date: Wed, 20 Mar 2002 09:34:41 EST
After chatting via e-mail with another "Dat-Head" reader who had purchased the Creative Labs Soundblaster Extigy (USB External digital I/O Card), I started asking them questions. Initially, via e-mail (which was posted in DAT-Heads, they had indicated that it was accurate. A telephone call to them said it was accurate at 44.1 but not at 48k since it is apparently not capable of that sample rate. Finally, I faxed them a letter, since the information I was getting from them did not match the information I was learning from the fellow DAT-Head. Their reply (via e-mail) finally confirms that the product is NOT bit-for-bit accurate.

To: SAlpert5@aol.com
Dear Mr. Alpert,
Thank you for contacting Creative Labs. I apologize for the confusion you have experienced concerning our SoundBlaster Extigy. The SoundBlaster Extigy cannot be bit-for-bit accurate when transferring digital via SPDIF or optical. The SoundBlaster Extigy must process and then re-sample digital streams. The SoundBlaster Extigy, when used with the software provided, is capable of a 44.1 k sampling rate. While it is possible that a higher end card might process without re-sampling, an exact bit-for-bit accuracy is impossible due to factors such as noise, distortion, the sampling rate, and the fact that there are different formats involved.
Again, I apologize for the confusion. Please let us know if you have any further questions.
Best Regards,
Laurel Recker

So I ask a question: Has anyone located a digital I/O card that IS bit-for-bit accurate, and can be used with a laptop (USB or FireWire or PCMCIA)and doesn't cost more than $250 or so? If so, please ALSO reply directly to SAlpert5@aol.com since I don't always have the opportunity to read each issue of DAT-Heads. Thanks!
