Date: Tue, 29 Apr 2003 10:07:04 -0400 tom/bogus, i don't think we have issue with the information so much as the format....it takes ALOT of space to go show by show, city by city, a paragraph for each show....remember, all this is archived somewhere and someone has to pay for that space/bandwidth, so maybe if someone plans on posting 25 shows for 5 or 6 bands each, they can help out by shortening the format a little ? (that 'delete' button is a powerful tool as well! ) just my $.02 now i'm back on the oade boards :) ------------------------------ From: Scott Summers Subject: Core Sound mics Date: Tue, 29 Apr 2003 09:31:09 -0500 I have a set of stealth Core Sound binaural mics that haven't been used in quite some and therefore I am selling them. They have a battery box with fixed response bass roll-off filter. These mics were only used on a couple of occasions and are in excellent condition. What are these going for used? -Scott ------------------------------ From: "drcraver" Subject: Re: Zefiro ZA-2 / Win 98SE / Resampling on the Fly Date: Tue, 29 Apr 2003 07:36:07 -0700 Did it ever work for you? I never had any luck with my ZA2 in windows (using 98SE as well), started running it in DOS years ago and it works great, resampling and all. I've never monitored through the sound card however, just a direct line from analog out on the deck to my stereo. Give it a shot, at least you'll know if it's the card or windows that preventing the resampling. Dan From: "Robert Hundertmark" Subject: Zefiro ZA-2 / Win 98SE / Resampling on the Fly Date: Mon, 28 Apr 2003 12:28:26 -0400 Hi all. I can't seem to get my Zefiro to hardware resample. (48 to 44.1) I'm using Win 98SE, and everything else seems to be fine, but I can't seem to get it to resample (selected "play normal", and I get MS SoundMapper errors, and MM01System Errors and such) ------------------------------ From: willherrmann@attbi.com Subject: ISO Recent Doors Date: Tue, 29 Apr 2003 14:53:02 +0000 Subject pretty much says it all. Looking for an exceptional recording of any of the recent Doors shows. Have plenty to trade including a phenomenal recording of Bruce Springsteen's intimate acoustic Somerville Theater show (2- 19-03) done from the 13th row center Schoeps MK4->Huber BR box->SBM-1->D8. Also have the following night 2-20-03 from 6th row with Sonic Studios DSM6s. DAT or CD. Thanks in advance! Will ------------------------------ From: Michael Miller Subject: dipshit band tour dates Date: 29 Apr 2003 13:55:36 -0400 I've been on this list for about 10 years and I've seen it weather alot of different people coming and going and it surely has diverged from purely dat related content out of neccessity as the technology has given us other alternatives. But in general this list is intended for the discussion of digital audio recording and related issues. Maybe that includes bands that allow taping. Live bands are why most of us use this equipment. But to post 100 lines of tour dates for some band that maybe three people care about is just fucking rude. It's outside the charter of the list and for people (like me) who take a digest for the low traffic, it's a pain in the ass to see three articles that merit attention and the rest of the digest filled with tour dates for bands that should have tour lists on a web site. There are plenty of over lists that are intended for promoting live music and sharing tourdates. Stop being lazy and go find them. If you like a band that much and want to promote them, then make a web site and post a link. If you like seeing the tour lists because you get introduced to new artists, that's great. But there are other lists for that purpose and 100 line tour lists are out of context here. At least the one guy I bitched at directly had a funny response. ------------------------------ From: Alfred Ritter Subject: ISO taper for NO. Cali area for ex GnR drummer's new band Date: Tue, 29 Apr 2003 09:12:41 -0700 (PDT) Former Guns N Roses drummer Steven Adler has a new band called Suki Jones. There set consists of classic songs from Appettite for Destruction and some covers. These guys actaully sound much better than what Axl cosiders GnR now.

Date: Tue, 29 Apr 2003 14:21:36 -0400 "If your interested in posting bands tourdates, just add a link to a web page for us to get them," **I think just about everyone on this list has the good manners to do this as much as possible....but it isn't always possible, that's the problem: Many smaller and obscure bands either do not have a website, or do not post their tourdates there. Recent Example: The Subhumans tour which was posted here....I sure wouldn't have otherwise known that this great band was playing almost in my back yard if it hadn't been for one of those long lists of dates.....sure, the band has a website, but it didn't have the tourdates there.... I don't see any of those complaining offering to create or maintain a website for bands that they don't care about and have never heard of. "if we care. 99 times out of 100 I could care less about the bands or have never even heard of them." **No, this person is certainly not alone....many will surely make such a statement. This, my friends, is DISCRIMINATION, pure and simple. Certainly the first 99 posted lists of tourdates don't interest me either....but then you hit that 100th one that makes scrolling past all the others well worth the while! No one complains when the first 99 of those posts are for obscure jazz, blues, bluegrass, or funk artists, but when that post rolls around that happens to list tourdates for an obscure and undertaped metal or punk band, the whining starts immediately. Tapers of underground metal and punk have a right to exist here too....just because these are the minority of tapers does not mean that there is cause to discriminate, as happens all too often here in several different ways. I must have never noticed the sign that said "post anything you like about jambands, bluegrass, funk, or jazz artists, but you are not welcome here if your musical taste and interest leans toward stealthing underground metal and punk".....when are we going to stop being told to sit in the back of the bus? "This group is not intended as a band promotion list," **Remember the similar topic of posts from vendors? When is a band promotion not a band promotion? If someone not associated with an obscure and undertaped metal or punk band posts a list of tour dates that's band promotion, but if someone says that a band they are in is playing two nights' worth of Pink Floyd covers at such-and-such location so come and tape us, then it's not a band promotion, correct? If you announce here that a band that you're in is taper friendly, is that promotion? What about including some tour dates because your band dosen't have a website? What about posting the list of remaining shows that you do not have tapers already lined up to cover? The quoted statement above is certainly another open can of worms that reeks of becoming fertile ground for more discrimination.... "its for discussion of DAT/recording related matters period." **Isn't the fact that an undertaped and obscure band is touring happen to be a "recording related matter"? Or is it only a "recording related matter" if you know who the band is, and / or they play the type of music that you happen to like? Granted, the main purpose of the list is the exchange of technical information....but it IS an open forum, and the fact that this list is uncensored makes the lack of abuse in this forum all the more impressive.....sure, there's a few bad apples out there, but I think that generally the manners of those on this list are quite good. The fact that this list is a balance of technical content as well as equipment for sale, "for trade" posts, "searching for" posts, and yes, postings of tourdates makes it the ideal forum for ALL tapers. If you're here only for the technical content, is it a bad thing if someone posts something you like "for trade"? Is it a bad thing if you're only here for the "for trade" posts and you happen to learn something technical? Many on the list who post "for trade", or "searching for", or any other non-technical subject DO do things like make the occasional technical post, offer help (both onlist and off) to newcomers, and offer up a BWT. I can recall a couple of those complaining about long lists of tourdates as having made posts with technical content.....but I can also recall them as making "for trade", "looking for", "for sale", "is anyone taping?", and "this is worth taping" type of posts too. I'm speaking strictly from memory, but go back through the archives and see for yourself what kind of postings those participating in this thread have made in the past. I think that no matter how we happen to do it, we ALL do a pretty good job of justifying our existance here.....there's room enough on the bus for everybody, just please stop telling the minority to sit in the back.... Thanks for yet another posting, john e. bogus PS- I smell another BWT coming again....don't worry, I'll be extra sure to make it a stealthed recording of something obscure and heavy.... ------------------------------ From: Scott Summers Subject: NEW SEALED blank DAT tape for sale Date: Tue, 29 Apr 2003 13:26:41 -0500 I have 16 NEW SEALED 90m tapes for sale: Quantity 2 - 90m FUJI brand (4mm) Quantity 14 - 90m SONY brand DG90P (4mm) I would sell for $35 and will include free first class shipping to the USA.

I just got a Manfrotto A635 that's terminated like this: http://hoytr2.stu.rpi.edu/misc/100-0008_IMG.JPG I was looking at a few different adapters that I can take from the 5/8" spigot to various screw threads (http://makeashorterlink.com/?H5B825264), but nothing that goes straight to a 5/8" screw thread. So I'd have to get two or three separate adapters from what I've found. I was wondering if anyone has happened upon a better plan that what I found. Sorry for the cross post.

Even though if an entry is quite long it it is not too hard to scroll down past it. I see it as a small inconvenience for for being informed about concerts that I might otherwise never have heard about. Just my 2 cents, Ben __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!?

Date: Tue, 29 Apr 2003 17:44:43 -0400 I have bought from them (Markertek Video Supply). They are pretty good I never had a problem. But Shop around though for prices. Other good equipment suppliers; Musicians Freind and Sweetwater Sound (Stewart Hisey). Tell them Glen from Like It Live' sent you not that I'll get anything from it but it does strengthen relationships. I have a Tascam DA30 and its been real good to me. You may also think about getting a portable CD recorder. The price for your media (CDs) is far cheaper than DATs.

I got it as a backup for my D8, but I've never used it...I don't get hardly any concerts where I live now, and even the D8 hasn't been used in a year! Before I eBay it, I figured I'd offer it up on dat-heads. Asking $500, or best reasonable offer by next week.
