From: "Wayne Brissette" <waynefb@earthlink.net> Subject: Joe Stummer (RIP) Date: Mon, 23 Dec 2002 10:04:40 -0600 The sad news of Joe Strummer passing away this weekend has lead me to offer the only Clash DAT I have. I'll take 4 B&P's for this tape. The Clash 1984-02-10 The Barrowlands - Glasglow, Scotland Aud : Source unknown, but great recording. fits on a single 60 meter tape. I'll take a couple of trades for other Clash or strummer material too. Wayne -- "Somebody's dead forever..." - Somebody Got Murdered -- Joe Strummer (1952-2002 R.I.P.)

From: Joe Rioux <jrioux@attbi.com> Subject: Re: Memorex CD-R's, and Fuji, as they were brought up Date: Mon, 23 Dec 2002 11:05:47 -0500 > From: Todd Romero <todd@routeflap.net> > > huh? i get lots of rebates per yer from the fuji's i get at best-buy. i But they're slower than snail snot to get them to you. Of the last 6 I've mailed in I've only received two, but shame on me for not keeping good records on the ones I never received. Anyway, I'll take a slightly higher price mail-order or whatever than have to wait 3+ months for a few $$ in return.
From: Les Gordon <lesg@microserve.net> Subject: cd-r info. Date: Mon, 23 Dec 2002 11:55:28 -0500 (EST) hello everyone i read the messages regarding the memorex cd-r's. some are made by taiyo yuden. but yes some are made by ri-tek. the black memorex cd-rs are made by ri-tek. taiyo yuden does not produce colored media. also the discs that office max has after the rebate are $.09 each. are cmc magnetics. cmc is the actual manufactor. as most know your best bet is taiyo yuden cdr media. thank you les.

From: fishwater@attbi.com Subject: FS- Schoeps MK4, CMC6, KC5- matched pair Date: Mon, 23 Dec 2002 17:17:21 +0000 I have a pair of MK4 >KC5 >CMC6's with stereo ORTF bar & shockmount that I purchased overseas last spring for $2,600. The caps were factory matched & come with fancy documentation in another language ;) I'd like to get $2,000 for the whole deal, I will not separate. I'd also be willing to trade for a MMe (rev C) or V3 plus some cash. carl
From: Jonathan Seff <jon@seff.net> Subject: ISO Peter Gabriel 12-14-02 Oakland Date: Mon, 23 Dec 2002 09:44:52 -0800 Looking for this show in SHN/CD/DAT (in that order). Currently have SHNs of the following shows from the tour: 11-17, 11-21, 11-24, 12-02 and 11-15 is on the way Also have tons of other stuff to trade (including lots of Genesis) Thanks, Jon
From: Eric Angel <ejangel@ucdavis.edu> Subject: livephish is now online Date: Mon, 23 Dec 2002 11:33:46 -0800 You can now buy MP3s and SHNs of Phish SBD's directly from the band at www.livephish.com. They have also updated their taping policy to allow for online trading of all audience recordings (even if you can buy an official release of the show). Which band is going to be next to distribute CD-quality releases over the net? I'm guessing SCI. Eric no BWT here, go buy yerself something nice at livephish.com :-)
From: "Dr. Rainer Meergans" <r@meergans.org> Subject: Problems with Aiwa HD-S100 out Date: Mon, 23 Dec 2002 20:40:44 +0100 I have tried to link the digital output of my Aiwa HD-S100 to the SPDIF Input of a Behringer Ultramatch 2000. Unfortunately the Behringer can't detect the Signal, so that the "Error" LED stays on. A quick glance with my oszilloskop shows a signal at the output of the Aiwa, it seems to work. Are there any known problems with the output signal (too week ?) with the Aiwa ?? Greetings, Rainer
From: Royal Repis <royalrepis@yahoo.com> Subject: Burning Live Recording to CD issue Resolved Date: Mon, 23 Dec 2002 11:54:34 -0800 (PST) The above issue has been resolved. But I would like to thank all of you who replied. For some reason when using SoundForge 6.0 there is not a setting to save the captured wav file as a pcm wav and would not convert to pcm using other software. So what I did was use Cool Edit Pro 2.0 to capture the sound from the line in source on my SoundBlaster Extigy. Cool Edit offers the option of saving the file as a pcm wav, and this worked just fine. __________________________________________________ Do you Yahoo!? Yahoo! Mail Plus - Powerful. Affordable.

From: USERCRE8S@aol.com Subject: memorex CDR's Date: Mon, 23 Dec 2002 15:22:20 EST I don't know about any horror stories, but if you get the ones with the Black screw on plastic thing (resembling the white screw on things like on Fuji) and if they say mfg in Japan, then they are TY's...otherwise they are Ritek or the bad brand.

From: "Degrado, Rob" <Rob.Degrado@T-Mobile.com> Subject: Sony RK-DA10P Date: Mon, 23 Dec 2002 14:55:44 -0800 I just picked one of these 7-pin cables up at my local Guitar Center (Kirkland, WA). It only has a single RCA (in) but has the active switch and retails for $64.95. It was in a clearance bin so when I took it to the counter for a price check, the guy looks it up and says to me "how about a buck?" I bought it on the spot and get this, I had no cash on me so I had to use a credit card for $1.09! Anyway, I already have an Oade 7-pin (best damn 7-pin ever made) so I don't really know what I'll do with this thing but for one single US dollar, it might be worth it to check you local GC clearance bins...

From: jcarvalh <jcarvalh@lynx.dac.neu.edu> Subject: jackjohnson rebroadcast on WBCN Christmas day... can anyone tape? Date: Mon, 23 Dec 2002 18:49:37 -0500 (EST) I have asked int he past for this but was hoping some dathead folks in the boston area on Christmas day could grab this for me. I got it the first time around but it sounds like crap because of a bad lockin.... Hopefully someone can pass some holiday cheer :) Thanks all..and Happy Holidays to the list! --- Jeff
From: Richard Levy <liverich@sunlink.net> Subject: Memorex CD-Rs again Reply-To: liverich@sunlink.net Date: Mon, 23 Dec 2002 18:57:18 -0500 Thanks for the personal and list replies. Price isn't an issue. Can anyone relate specifics about how and (if you know) why these discs don't perform like others? I'm only interested in archival stability and compatibility with player and drive issues. I have the light dye discs that don't have a shattered glass icon on the brand surface. I've heard about the Japan/Taiwan matter, but I still don't get why the difference. Rich
From: "Dan Boardman" <boardman@bellsouth.net> Subject: Sony D100 Questions Date: Mon, 23 Dec 2002 19:06:25 -0500 Just bought a Sony D100 deck - it worked great at home - tried to use it at the show and all hell broke loose - went into record mode but didn't have a signal - Sonic Studios DSM6's with a Sound Pro's preamp combo bass cutoff - tried to pause - stop -open but wouldn't work - took the batteries out for a long time (15 minutes) and replaced - did not seem to be responding to most commands - it would change modes - tried to open but still won't let me open - maybe it ate a tape? Lost my manual in the shuffle (had some experiened people with D100's try to get it open) any suggestions (other than send it in to Sony and pay them the 300.00 for repair) - also wonder if anybody has a manual, would be glad to pay for copy charges - appreciate any input and a BIG thank you to Mike G. who loaned me a spare D8 - Dan
From: Tom McCreadie <mccreadi@xs4all.nl> Subject: Re: PNB Mics (German made) - Anyone know anything about these? Date: Tue, 24 Dec 2002 01:33:53 +0100 Matt in #584: >>I received some tapes recorded with "pmb mics (very nice german made)" to quote my source. I tried to find out more about these using google but...<snip>...the sound is too good for that. Anyone know anything about these?<< Probably these "pmb' mics are Peerless-MB mics. Peerless is a Danish speaker drive unit manufacturer and MB-Elektronic GMBH is the W German mic manufacturer now known as MBHO. Back in the '80's, Peerless had a distribution/rebadging arrangement for MB stuff such as their ribbon mics, condensor omni's and Jecklin Disk. If no one else steps in, I can maybe unearth more from my archives - shoeboxes <g> Tom
From: Junglework@aol.com Subject: I.S.O. - George Harrison Tribute set list! Date: Mon, 23 Dec 2002 19:52:09 -0500 A good friend of mine just returned from London. He made a great digital audience tape of the George Harrison Tribute Concert from The Royal Albert Hall in London on November 29th, 2002. This wonderful recording features, Eric Clapton, Joe Brown, Jools Holland, Jeff Lynn, Paul McCartney, Billy Preston, Tom Petty & The Heartbreakers, Ringo Starr, Sam Brown, Gary Booker, Jim Capaldi, Dhanni Harrison, Jim Keltner, Albert Lee, Tom Scott, Klaus Voorman, members of Monty Python (Eric Idle / Terry Gilliam / Terry Jones), & many others. Is there anyone out there who can direct me to a web site that has the exact set list showing which of these artists play on which songs? I would greatly appreciate any help you can offer (I'll even burn you a copy). Thanks very much & I wish you all a joyous & safe holiday season! Cheers, Mitchell
From: wilkinsmd@attbi.com Subject: holiday jam Date: Tue, 24 Dec 2002 02:45:50 +0000 Wanted to help spread a little holiday jam...PEARL Jam that is. Have all four of their recent Seattle shows on 8 CD-R's (12/5, 12/6, 12/8, 12/9, see www.fivehorizons.com for details). These are stealth recordings "unknown Schoeps -> unknown preamp -> unknown DAT" if you need more details sorry can't help you. They all sound great; first show has a few minutes mono where someone bumped the taper pretty hard and one channel went out...fortunately he recovered before too long. Can do 2 B&P if you can get your packages out quickly and offer them back up in turn to others. BTW this is a close approximation of my idea of B&P http://www.mcnichol.com/bnp/ if you can't do that then please move on. Happy holidays Mark
From: "Bonnie & Cleve Svetlik" <Svetlik@Stratos.net> Subject: Tascam DA-P1 power cord replacement Date: Mon, 23 Dec 2002 22:15:46 -0500 If I read the question correctly, what is needed is the cord that runs from the power supply box to the deck. In the USA, you can order a replacement cord and install it yourself from Tascam (www.tascam.com) or call (323) 727 - 7627. I just ordered a cable today - my original was damaged during a recording session last weekend. The cable costs $ 43.94 from Tascam. Ouch! Does anyone know of a different source for the cable (and at a lower price?) Cleve Svetlik Svetlik Sound Labs Cleveland, Ohio USA

From: Mathias Rombach <rombachm@gmx.de> Subject: 24 bit/96khz DVD-Audio Discs Date: Tue, 24 Dec 2002 11:27:45 +0100 Hy, I sometimes copy my digital recordings in 24 Bit/88.1 or 96 KHz to normal CDs if the playing time does not exceed 41 minutes for one CD. I get CDs with AIF computerfiles readable in a computer with a music software or on my CD-recorder. Mathias
From: Mathias Rombach <rombachm@gmx.de> Subject: Blank CD-Rs for long-life Date: Tue, 24 Dec 2002 11:32:24 +0100 Hello out there, I read the CD-R posts and want to give my suggest on it: Why not to use real studio-masterdiscs like the EMTEC Ceramic Master for about $1.60 each ? It has a hard ceramic surface and is white on the labelside. Itīs the best CD-R I know. Mathias
