Huh? I, as of yet, have no information suggesting that the Nomad 3 isn't
EXACTLY what I've been waiting for.... a portable harddisk recording device
with a digital input. Again, can you provide the good people of this list
any information suggesting that this device resamples digital input?

Huh? Again, what the hell are you ranting about... And what does Windows XP

Does anyone know how long JJ Cale's show is currently running? I am planning
to stealth a couple next week. I know the current leg just got started but
any insight would be greatly appreciated. Will set up some trades if
successful.

Most likely, what you're noticing is picture clarity. :)
Your 12 year old set won't have nearly the accuracy or clarity of a newer
set (especially a Sony). Plus, you're now using component in which has a
MUCH sharper picture with much more accurate colors than even S-Video.
Your old RF modulator doesn't compare.
However, if you've had the old set for 12 years, you're probably used to
everything being just a tad fuzzy. Colors are probably more muted and the
edges aren't sharp. The newer set probably looks "extra" bright, and
almost strident on the edges on screen.
At a company I used to work for, we switched out an older gentleman's 32"
RCA (which was a piece of junk) for a new Sony XBR (which is a nice TV,
even though I'm really not fond of the flat-screen tube sets). He had
instructed us to toss the old set. About 2 hours after we made the switch
(and had disposed of the old TV), he called back to complain that the new
set didn't look "right" and that the picture wasn't as "good" as his old
set.
It's just a matter of what you're used to. If you normally listen to
music on walkman headphones, you'll no doubt be dazzled by hearing that
same music from a good set of loudspeakers with midbass clarity and
subbass response. I would wager it's the exact same thing in this case.
Check it out, and see if that's what it is.

Subject: 32 khz help...
Date: Sat, 20 Apr 2002 11:08:35 -0400
Last nights' Motorhead show was an extreme stealth situation....somehow
during setup the SP/LP switch on my D7 got bumped and I ended up with a 32
khz tape. Sounded fine on headphones during the drive back, but got nothing
but garbage when played back at home on the SV-3800. I copied a bit of the
tape, and a copy plays back fine on both decks. I remember hearing
something about Sony having a different 32 khz system, but what gives? Is
there any way to play the master back on a non-Sony deck? Or do I have to
make a copy for myself to listen to it on my SV-3800? Why does the copy
play back on both decks but not the master? This seems to work fine, but
now I have two tapes of the same show....I guess this is good to have a
master tape backed up, but is there any other way around it? If I copy the
tape for a trade, will there be issue with playback on certain decks, or am
I safe?
Thanks again for the posting,
john e. bogus

Subject: current Motorhead tour
Date: Sat, 20 Apr 2002 11:08:29 -0400
Anyone stealthing Motorhead on this tour should be prepared for a door
search, even in venues where this is not standard policy. A tour manager or
promoter is probably responsible for this, as I've never been gone over like
this before either at any previous Motorhead show or at the 2 venues I've
taped at on this current tour. Searching is done by extra venue staff, not
band employees. Beware and be prepared for an extreme stealth
situation.....
Thanks for the posting,

Clearly, it's aimed at film/tv location sound. But it seems relevant
to the recent list discussions of the (lack of?) future of DAT. Maybe
it will inspire somebody to make a smaller four or two-channel, non-timecode
"prosumer" version. Maybe it will inspire some Linux hackers to start
a DIY project.
obDATContent: sigh...I've got to take my only rig in to get the alignment
fixed today. Right at the start of concert season. Hope I can get it
back quickly. At least I live close enough that I can transport it myself
and save a few days.
