Steve ------------------------------ From: Eric Angel Subject: Where can I buy a female TOSLINK connector? Date: Wed, 22 May 2002 11:34:14 -0700 I am trying to build an optical to coax DFT. I would like to buy the components to make the equivalent of a C02. Can anyone point me to a vendor, or a how-to website of someone that has already documented this DIY project. Thanks, Eric ------------------------------ From: Eugene Hu Subject: Re: rewinding woes Date: Wed, 22 May 2002 12:04:12 -0700 I've occasionally seen the same behavior; no particular correlation with brand. Sometimes a tape will play, but not fast wind. I usually try it in a different deck - sometimes this fixes it, sometimes not. It usually goes away with several FF/REW cycles, although you often have to be very patient since the tape will only fast wind a little ways before stopping so you have to keep hitting the button until it gets to the end. In extreme cases, I'll just wind the tape by hand - usually once you get past a tight spot the deck will handle it, although I've hand wound a few tapes the entire length (takes a LONG time!). Obviously, if it's a problematic blank, just throw it away. -Eugene ------------------------------ From: "Chris Black" Subject: Attn: Chicago & Madison, WI area tapers!

Is there any advantage in using them ? And why do many people often have about that ??

And why do many people often have > about that ?? > > Mathias Because the Recording Industry Association of America convinced the US Govt. to levy huge taxes on *audio* tapes and other recordable media that essentially double the cost to the consumer. The exact same media packaged and marketed as "data" media is much less expensive. So we'd like to know which reports of incompatibility are more RIAA Stormtrooper Scare Tactics and which are based on sound technical information/scientific studies. ------------------------------ From: Jmratman@aol.com Subject: Marc Ford Date: Wed, 22 May 2002 16:28:53 -0400 Saw Marc Ford, former guitar player from the Black Crowes, at a small bar in Portland, ME.  90m DAT or 2 CD's will work.  Who wants to trade or I'll do a few B+P?

OK, Toronto would be great but...... Trade would be great or B&P BWT tax: DAT to DAT B&P for whoever would like to. That is DAT to DAT so, only look under the DAT list please. jerry -- Web Site w/list: www.anhisr.com ------------------------------ From: "Bonnie & Cleve Svetlik" Subject: DAT tapes vs Data (DDS) tapes Date: Wed, 22 May 2002 17:00:57 -0400 I sure there has to be something in the archives.......however: Data tapes usually have a thinner backing. (It depends on the length, and not all brands of DDS tapes have thinner backing) My SONY D7 & D8 do not have a problem using data tapes, however my TASCAM DA-P1 gags on them. The holes on the back side of the tape tell the machine what type of tape it is - I am not sure where I found the info on what each hole position means. If I find it, I'll post the info. For safety, I strongly recommend that you stick to DAT tapes. (I believe that SONY only recommends DAT tapes for their machines - not Data - DDS - tapes) Cleve Svetlik. ------------------------------ From: Seth Breidbart Subject: Re: DAT tapes vs Data (DDS) tapes Date: Wed, 22 May 2002 17:17:51 -0400 (EDT) 90m tapes are thinner than 60m tapes (they have to be, to fit in the shell). 60m data tapes and 60m (120 minute) audio tapes are the same thickness. The archives should have the meanings of all the holes. The tax is only $.10/tape (or at least, it was that initially); it's the quantity sold that cause DDS to be much cheaper than audio. Seth ------------------------------ From: "Eric Peterson" Subject: ISO: Code Talkers Reply-To: juncopartner@lycos.com Date: Wed, 22 May 2002 17:57:21 -0400 Anyone tape The Code Talkers lately? The band would like to get copies of their past shows. Check out www.thecodetalkers.com. I wouldn't mind getting copies too for that matter...

I don't want to spend a million $ on it, but I want some basic things like the ability of dubbing scms-protected tapes and S/PDIF coax i/o. I have read the dat-faq and the market posting and although they have a lot of interesting stuff, they are a bit outdated with respect to the dat market.... So, could anyone recommend a nice deck to start with? I was thinking of a Sony pcm-r300, a Tascam da-20mkII would have been ok, but at the shop they just told it is now of out production (Tascam now starts with the da-40.....too expensive). It seems to me that there are not many choices :-( Thanks in advance for your help.

I installed it on my XP box and also installed Audio Rack, but I can't figure out how to record using the Coax inputs. Anyone with some help/experience would be greatly appreciated. -seth ------------------------------ From: Mike Parker Subject: RE: Rush FTP trades ("rush fan") Date: Wed, 22 May 2002 18:29:14 -0700 Hi Rushfan RT, >Let me apologize in advance if this is not appropriate here.

Besides i`m still not sure what a SHN>FPT>MP3>XTC=LSD.wav file is. >Please do not contact me about trading via snail-mail. I am truly lazy about that stuff >and you will get it a year later after getting pissed off at me, so I do >FTP trading instead and you will get a lot more than 1:1 in return. Well, hey, a little snail mail never hurt anyone........ There`s lots of traders that use it still. Consider it analog delivery. Real time, that is. I tried to download a song the other day, it only took about an hour on my Pentium 233 (64K memory with a 56k modem).. . Oh yeah, such is life.

NOS? ORTF? > Thanks It depends on a lot of things. When I ran Oktava MC-012's, I used XY almost exclusively (card and hyper regardless of position in the venue). It seemed to give the best sound to my ears. With Neumann KM-184's, I find that I like ORTF better than XY for most positions in any venue. You need to use what you think sounds best with your setup. It just takes experience. -- Wayne D.

After several months of compiling names of people who are crazy about Joe, we are finally ready to roll out our first installment of news and information. Joe is just about finished mixing and mastering the new album, "So, It's Like That." The album is due out August 13th, and it sounds very cool. The guitars are ripping, and Joe is extremely happy with the direction his songs are taking. He is also looking forward to showing them off this Spring and Summer. Our website, http://www.jbonamassa.com, is currently being redesigned, but we hope to use it as a means of bringing together Bonamassa fans from all over the world. Check back often. Before I tell you about the tour, I'd like to thank you all for your support and interest in Joe. This email will be followed by a chance to enter competitions that we have planned for the summer, and an email about joining Joe's team which we hope will help us get the word out about Joe.
