Sorry for the non-DAT content:
Anybody know/know how to get ahold of Derek Swingley outside the

Hello,
Does anyone have any answers on a repair shop that
can service a Panasonic SV-250 portable dat
reasonably inexpensively? Or does anyone know how
to fix them themselves? The unit powers up fine, the
transport works fine, all functions seem normal until
you go into record! the unit inputs a level (adjustable)
without anything plugged into it? you also cannot hear
anything from the outputs?
HELP!!

Hey all,
sorry to waste bw,but if anyone is interested
in trading cds or dats for the below shows I would
like to trade them. I am only interested in blank
DATs-sony or maxells 60m-or shows on disc. I would
like to trade 3 discs for every two dats, show for a
show. I am putting priority on trading all at once.
I am looking for moe. and Phish mainly. I am looking
for new SCI only, but not any WSP. I am willing to do
a split trade of dats and cds. Overall I am very
flexible to getting rid of them.
thanks a bunch

Howdy, Folks!
New on this list, and pretty new to live taping, but long time
radio engineer with _some_ savvy.
I would very much appreciate any feedback on the relative merits
of the Sony PCM-M1 and the Tascam DA-P1. I've used the M1, but
goofed due to short time to learn about it before taping. I've
seen the P1, and kinda like the full size, pro-type connectors
and larger meters and controls.
What do y'all think??
Thanks!

Hey all,
I made a mistake when i wrote my initial
e-mail. What I meant to say is that for smaller
trades i would like 3 cds for every dat. Its the
equivalent cost. If someone would like to trade for
everything I am willing to cut a deal though.
sorry for the mistake

Greetings all.
I am looking to find some GBV recordings. I've seen them live once and am
planning to tape their upcoming show in Minneapolis, MN.
I've read that there is someone out there that has a soundboard copy of the
2 shows that GBV played in Minne in 2001. I'd love to find those 2 shows
(and the one that I went to in earlier 2002, obviously).
Contact me offline with any info that you may have.
BWT: B&P of any one Zwan show. Billy Corgan's new band.
Thanks,

Hi all,
This is a bit off topic, but I remember reading a discussion a while back
about an Apex DVD player that can play DVD's encoded for other regions as
well as do some other neat tricks that consumer models are typically not
supposed to do. Does anyone know the model number of that DVD player and if
its still available? If not, are there any other DVD players on the market
that can do the same thing?
Thanks,
Chris

Subject: Any ideas?
Date: Wed, 15 May 2002 14:33:19 EDT
Last night after taping a show, I ran into a debacle. Basically, everything
but the encore was not there. When I played the tape on the D7, first the
"PGM NO" is blinking, then 01 shows up in the PGM NO display. Then finally
the encore comes on about 3/4 through the tape and sounds great. The encore
is shown as 02 in the PGM NO. This is the first time I have ever seen
something in this section of the DAT. When the encore plays "LP" shows up as
well. Now, I know tape was rolling during the whole show, and that it was
peaking around 12 db. I paused the tape during the spot between the last song
and the encore. Could I have inadvertently switched on the LP function before
the encore, thereby erasing the whole show before it, is this possible?
Anyone have any idea what happened. here?
Thanks, Tim

Subject: eco-charge "4.5V cable"?
Date: Wed, 15 May 2002 13:56:14 -0700
Greets,
I just picked up a used eco-charge bp-50 plus charger. I was hoping
to use it to power my M1 (4.5V) in addition to the preamp
(MP-2, using 6V) that I got it with. But my guess that the
four-pin DIN connectors meant one pin for each cell...was incorrect.
So does the "4.5V cable" that eco-charge charges $25.00 for
simply have a regulator IC stuffed in the XLR? Or is there a
regulator built into the cap on the BP-50 that can be used by
strapping certain pins? (I tried to pull out one of the
female XLRs but it wouldn't come out more than 1/4" or so.)
I don't really want to pay $25.00 for a cable that probably
won't be the ideal lenght, if I can get around it; I'd rather
make my own. If I can't figure this out, I may just go ahead
and stuff a regulator inside an XLR and make my own.
tnx...

Subject: XLR or 1/8" Cable Question...MP-2 Users...Please Help a Taping Newbie
Date: Wed, 15 May 2002 20:48:49 -0400
Im so confused...
My rig is going to be the following setup
Microtech Gefell M210 (hypers)>MP-2>DA-P1
I have the usual XLR>XLR to go from mics to Pre
But what is the best to use w/ the MP-2 to go to the P1
Ive heard conflicting stories about using the 1/8" Stero>RCA vs going
XLR>XLR from the Pre>P1...
All this stuff about the cables carrying more gain and unbalanced vs
balanced cables...
Can Someone PLEASE give me a low down on this
I hear the Gefells run hot..And I KNOW the MP-2 does too
I've heard so many differing opinions and dont know what to make of them
all...
For example
1) "The line in XLR on the DA-P1 is +4 dBu referenced and RCA is
-10 dBu. Even with the MP-2 at it's lowest gain
you could have too hot a signal for the -10 dBu referenced input
which would require you to lower the rec level on the DA-P1. XLR in
on the DA-P1 handles a much hotter signal."
Wouldnt this be a good thing considering my MG210's are HOT and the MP-2 can
run Hot as well??
2) Your point about the -4dbu vs. +10dbu is a good
one, but keep in mind that the XLR outs of the MP2 are 10dbu hotter
than the mini out. So if you compare XLR>XLR or mini>RCA, the
difference of using the RCAs on the P1 is only 4dbu, not 14dbu.
With this small difference, I wouldn't imagine that the REC knob
would be set too much lower using the RCAs. I know on the MP2 that
the XLR out runs the signal through an additional 6 transistors, not
sure about the P1.
Oiy..Contradictions..And what the hell are Transistors???
3) In addition lets not forget why balanced cables were created.
Unbalanced cables are susceptible to noise and ground loops where
the scheme for balanced cables is capable of removing noise and
assuring a clean signal transfer.
English...Anyone :)
4) I believe that using the minijack gives you a minimum 6db gain
and the XLRs give you a minimum 16db gain. I almost exclusively
tape loud concerts and I use very minimal gain on the MP-2 (5db
max); sometimes I don't need any gain at all. The 210s are HOT
mics! With an extra 10db of gain with the XLRs, it may be better to
use the -10db pads on the mics if you are taping a loud show. I
never tape bluegrass or anything like that so I don't know what
settings you would use if you tape softer or unamplified music.
More about this gain in the cables
Can someone please explain that?
Opinions Please
Im dying to hear some
Thanx so much in advance
Sorry for being a dumbass about this
Steve

Hello
Was wondering if anyone can help me with this problem
I'm having. I'm trying to record from my M1 to my
Audiophile 2496 soundcard using the 7 pin coaxial
cable. I have been doing this since last November
without any problems. Now when I record to the hard
drive (using Cool Edit Pro) I get a lot of pops and
clicks after about 5 minutes of recording. I've tried
reinstalling the software, took the card out, put it
back in. Nothing seems to work. Has anybody had this
problem or can offer me a solution. I am using XP,
have plenty of hard drive space, etc. Thanks.
