From: Mathias Rombach <rombachm@gmx.de> Subject: Tascam vs. Sony protable DATs Date: Sun, 09 Jun 2002 18:01:27 +0200 I often read here about the Sony port. DATs. There are the TCD-Dīs and the PCM-M1. Whatīs the advantage of such DATs compared to a Tascam DA-P1 ?? Mathias
From: "Mincey, Patrick" <pamincey@davidson.edu> Subject: Bonarroo Taping Strategy Date: Sun, 9 Jun 2002 12:06:26 -0400 I've missed any discussion about this, just wondering what people were = doing about Bonarroo taping with respect to=20 -tape length -Number of tapes you're taking -batteries I heard its one set for everyone, but do you think those will be 2hr+ = sets?

From: mike hooker <mhooker@optonline.net> Subject: re:stealth taping and dealing with other concert goers Date: Sun, 09 Jun 2002 13:15:26 -0400 hi, i look at it this way. it doesnt matter if you are taping or not. if they are loud enough to bother your tape, then they are loud enough to bother your enjoyment of the show, tape or no tape. i tend to get very confrontational, go for broke. usually i loudly say somethin like" my ticket says ( insert artist here) , i dont see your f*cking name on it, so shut the f*ck up. you have to balance that out with the following considerations: if i get in a scuffle, will my equipment get damaged? is it worth missing the show due to getting kicked out? i also make it a point to say it very loudly, you can usually get a whole lot of similarly pissed off people behind you and the offenders tend to back down and be quiet. it seems to becoming more and more of a problem, to the point where i consider not going to certain venues at all. good luck. please see my music trading page: New URL http://hometown.aol.com/mhooker216/myhomepage/index.html being its AOL, its not always up. try it a few times, or ask me for a text list. thanks have fun, mike hooker

From: "Vince Horst" <vincehorst@hotmail.com> Subject: Where is the Zoltrix FAQ now-a-days? Date: Sun, 09 Jun 2002 20:06:44 -0500 I'm fighting with my Zoltrix card to get it installed on either Windows XP or 2000. Can't get s/pdif in or out to work at all. Tried XP yesterday but couldn't get it to work. Trying 2000 right now. Found an interesting post in the archives that has given me a lead... Where is that nice little FAQ that used to be here:(http://pipedreamer.bizland.com/zoltrix)? Was it saved and moved elsewhere? Send me a link or a text file with the FAQ in it to my person email address please. Thanks, Vince _________________________________________________________________ Chat with friends online, try MSN Messenger: http://messenger.msn.com
From: Smagmapig333@aol.com Subject: M-1 problem HELP! Date: Sun, 9 Jun 2002 21:53:55 EDT My M-1 keeps going into TAPE PROTECT (flashes) and pauses for no reason. It records fine for a random amount of time then goes into TAPE PROTECT like the tab is pulled over on the tape. Has anyone else had this problem? Might it be a media problem? I'm assuming it's the deck since it has occurred with more than 1 brand of tapes. It's the second deck that I have encountered this problem on, the first one it decided to do it with Sony DDS60m tapes, the tapes were unpacked etc... brand new. The other time was with a TDK-PRO90 tape (I have heard problems with the TDK tapes before but I had one lying around) Any help/suggestions would be appreciated. Mike

From: "kombi" <kombi@tstonramp.com> Subject: FW: Help with live tapings Date: Sun, 9 Jun 2002 19:48:19 -0700 What mic do you recommend? I was planning on using a shotgun. This will be at an outdoor event. And my first taping. The only thing that stinks is.I don't have a portable dat. I will have to use my md recorder and transfer it over to dat when I get home. Also does anyone know where I can get a good price on a portable dat deck ?
From: "cream of mushroom" <imissmybus@earthlink.net> Subject: ISO Phil & Bobby 5-5-02 New Orleans Date: Sun, 9 Jun 2002 20:59:22 -0700 I have a friend whose brother was at this show & was floored so I'd like to get it for him.

From: William Draper <wdraper@expressionanalysis.com> Subject: ps-2/ad-20/da-r100 voltage questions PLEASE HELP Date: Mon, 10 Jun 2002 00:25:50 -0400 so i have decided to scrap the 12v > 9v circuit idea and just use 12v. the ad-20 and ps-2 have this phrase written near the power jack: "Ext. Pwr (6-24V tip+)". i assume this means you can use anywhere from 6v to 24v DC as long as the tip of the 1/8" plug is your +. anyone disagree? the only problem i think i may have is with the da-r100. it is an old unit, and i am not the original owner. the specs say 6-9v DC. will 12v cause to much of a problem? wed
From: TheSchoolNerd@aol.com Subject: DVD format info/ site? Date: Mon, 10 Jun 2002 10:00:03 EDT Can someone explain the difference between the DVD recordable formats (DVD-R vs DVD+R, etc) or know of a site that has it explained? The stand-alone recorders record on different media and Im terribly confused. OK: I was confused already but this mess sure didnt help! Thanks. D
From: Scott Goodwin <coryphaena_29403@juno.com> Subject: M1 vs. D8, the final tally - and who sells them cheapest? Date: Mon, 10 Jun 2002 10:04:20 -0700 I've received too many email messages about this debate to reply, but I'll share with the list the definitive answer: DEAD EVEN TIE. For every "M1s are the absolute best!", there was a "D8 has done me right!", and for every "Skip the M1 for sure, because of ___________.", there was another comment just like it from a D8 user. Baffling. All that input and still no clear winner! Anyhoo, I'm buying one, and I'm buying one this week. One or the other, that is. And mostly it comes down to price. I'm leaning towards the D8, but if there's a <$700 (***NEW***) M1 out there, it will be a contender for my hard-earned taping dollar. A *requirement* will be delivery by next Wednesday. Can you say Bonnaroo? I knew you could. So, who's got the best deal (and the best vibe) for purchase of either of these decks in sealed, new, not-a-refurb condition? Anyone? SWG
