From: Keith Bode <t.tunakebo@verizon.net> Subject: Me, the thics plice and killing Date: Mon, 09 Sep 2002 10:37:07 -0700 You got me laughing so hard, I can't believe it. How the hell did you tie me from my view pint on what happened to someone when they tried to stealth a show, and got caught, to killing? I think the scene at Birchmere was done to deliberately antagonize the would be taper, and kind of funny to read, but to equate that with me being behind the Great Crusades or something is laughable. Honest to god, it sounds like a video game. Keith -- Please check out http://www.wotwild.com for some great animal art and wall decorations.
From: "Stanley W. Smith" <swsmith@ix.netcom.com> Subject: Re: Question on RKDA10P cable Date: Mon, 9 Sep 2002 12:39:04 -0500 Hey, If your Sony portable deck is recieving _analog_ signal through either the line or mic in connections, then you'll set the switch to 'analog'. You would be the only deck, or the lead deck in the patch chain from the mics or other analog source. It won't pass signal otherwise... If you are _not_ the lead deck, and are recieving incoming signal through the digital patch chain, then switch it to 'digital'. Simple, right? (And yes, there are no 7-pin mic or line connectors... ;) ) Stan Smith ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ From: Mark Mayhle <mark@mayhle.com> Subject: Question on RKDA10P cable Date: Sun, 8 Sep 2002 06:53:00 -0500 (CDT) So, I just got one of these Sony active cables-- thanks Spyro-- and am wondering about the Analog-Digital switch. It says to use the Analog position when connecting to the Mic or Line in, which doesn't make sense to me since I don't know of any deck with a Sony 7-pin connector for Mic or Line in. Any explanation? Thanks... -- Mark Mayhle mark@mayhle.com --- Outgoing mail is certified Virus Free. Checked by AVG anti-virus system (http://www.grisoft.com).

You tell them to send you disks/tapes inside an SASE, or you tell them you don't have the time to hook them up. You NEVER NEVER EVER profit on the tapes; selling is profit, period. This list is for TAPING, not BOOTLEGGING. I think you are the one who needs to get educated, quickly. If you took a poll of this list I would bet 99% of us would be against what you are doing. And I hope that people on this list will refuse to trade with you. If someone traded for a master of mine and then sold it I would feel violated. I will repeat what I said earlier: people like you are why tapers have a bad reputation. Candace

Any explanation? Thanks... First of all, the Sony cable is active only on input, not output. See the "7-Pin Bible" on our Web site for more details. The switch tells the DAT recorder whether to record from its analog inputs (Line and Mic) or the 7-pin digital input. If you are recording from microphones and have the switch in the "digital" postition, the recorder will ignore the mics and listen to what's coming in on the digital connector. I hope this helped!

From: Mac <mhathaway@netway.com> Subject: RE: LP to digital... Date: Mon, 09 Sep 2002 15:24:11 -0400 About recording/transferring LPs: In the description below, the key thing that the various chains are lacking is the phono pre-amp stage. That is the reason that you needed to go into the mic input of the DAT deck. The output from a phono player is low level (NOT line level, more like a mic's output), and has a non-standard EQ, which means that the recorded result will be heavily weighted toward higher frequencies (if I remember right). The phono input of a standard pre-amp has higher gain than other inputs, and also takes care of the phono EQ conversion. Trouble is, lots of pre-amps these days don't have phono stages. Sometimes you can by an outboard phono-preamp, but quality can be an issue. You'll need to plug the output of the preamp-phono-stage/phono-preamp into the line input of other devices, and you should be in good shape. Mac Maynard MA *********************** From: "Chris M." <chris_83_01@yahoo.com> Subject: Converting LP's > CD Date: Sun, 8 Sep 2002 15:01:45 -0700 (PDT) Hi, my dad has a buddy who has a nice, old, and rare LP collection. He'd like to be able to convert some to CD to make a few mixes and what not. I tried a few of them by going LP player > RCA>eight-inch analog cable > Sharp MT-99 MD.**(see note below). Well it sounds alright (I have a digital soundcard and a MD player with dig. output, so I converted it to CD), but I'm wondering if there's a better way to do it. I was thinking since we are amateur hobbyists (and he has no digital equipment at all, but I'm supervising his purchases), he could get an outboard A>D converter like the one shown here: http://www.soundprofessionals.com/cgi-bin/gold/category.cgi?category=570&item=SP-AD2000&type=store He could then get a Zoltrix Nightengale digital soundcard for $30 and there you go, a decent set-up. Now for people who know more about this stuff, do you have any suggestions as far as him purchasing equipment? Maybe he could go LP player > home DAT Deck > dig. soundcard? Or even LP player > outboard A>D > Stand Alone CD-R Deck? This brings up another question, if he was to go find a way to go into the computer, would it be a good idea for him to get like, CEP and do some noise reduction? Any suggestions AT ALL will be gladly accepted. :) **Ok, when I was going LP Player > Sharp MT-99 MD something weird was going on. I had the RCA>eight-inch analog cable. I plugged the two RCA's in the output of the LP player and the eight-inch end into the Line-In of my portable MD recorder. but I picked up no sound. I had to go in through the Mic-In where I did get a sound. Why is that? Would I be better off using LP player > amplifier(one from my dad's home stereo system or something like that) > MD? Thanks!!! :)
