My folks were at the show (first concert in quite a while for them, considering how frequently they used to go see live music!). Anyway, I'd love to surprise them with a copy. Have some nice stuff to trade including recent Doors (Boston, FOB 8th row), Stones (Chicago '03, Schoeps MK4), Bruce Springsteen (2-19-03 Somerville acoustic show, 12th row FOB Schoeps MK4), Eagles, Knopfler, etc. DAT or CD is fine. I'll be happy to send my list or B+P would be great. Thanks in advance! Will ------------------------------ From: rappard@dds.nl Subject: mic advice needed Date: Tue, 13 May 2003 01:02:29 +0200 (CEST) Hi all, Please reply to this topic off-list, as I'm sure this has been asked previously (but I can't find it in the digest): I'm looking to buy new mics in the $300 price range - are there any other options besides Core Sound Binaurals I should be looking at? Conditions: 1) They should be stealth mics 2) They will be mostly used for recording loud indie music (Sonic Yoof, that sort of thing). So far CSBs seem like the best bet (based on other's experiences and also because Len seemed really knowledgeable), but I'm curious to hear other people's (horror) stories. Thanks in advance for any pointers, Martin BWT: any CD-R from my "spares" page (http://www.rappard.dds.nl/music/cdrs/spares.htm) ------------------------------ From: "Slipkid" Subject: crack the sky Reply-To: "Slipkid" Date: Mon, 12 May 2003 19:36:47 -0400 any tapers going to the CRACK THE SKY show on may31st at the recher theatre in towson, MD? http://www.rechertheatre.com/recherframes.cfm if anyone captures it i'd like to trade for a copy! thanks, - jon - slipkid@voicenet.com ------------------------------ From: monty Subject: AKG's Gone; MBHO's with shockmounts still available Date: Mon, 12 May 2003 20:18:21 -0400 That's right i sold the AKG's, but I still have the MBHO's .

Bingo. http://search.yahoo.com ------------------------------ From: "david gatewood" Subject: RE: Sonics, Pan caps, etc Date: Tue, 13 May 2003 00:33:52 +0000 I have been reading the little bruha regarding Sonics, Pan caps, etc. All I can say is for the same price as the high end DSM's or HEB's, you can own a real set of AT 853R's and an Aerco or MP2. I paid $300 for my AT's and $600 for my Aerco. MP2's are flying everywhere for $500 or less. Either combo will provide a much larger/deeper/wider soundstage and unless you don't know how to run a pre, you will NEVER overload either the mics, pre, or A>D section of your DAT or MD. I have made dozens of very HQ tapes from all types of venues, many rivaling my full rig. Location at the venue is a large part of sound capture, and for the money saved by not buying the Phat rig of choice, you can put the money into great seats. You know you always look for FOB tapes, and the small size of the AT's allows for not wearing the Kangol and sticking out like a sore thumb. Sure, a full rig up front will do even better, but in a crowded or seated venue, a small fanny pack will hold the necessary gear. I have been using 853's in one form or another since Jan '96 after a local music store guy told me some of the Dead FOB crowd used to run them. I can see why! BWT: Need proof? B&P DAT 1 of each of 5 shows, Phil FOB '99 Pretenders FOB '00 Charlie Daniels FOB '01 Marshall Tucker FOB '01 and one of the latest Kelly Joe Phelps FOB '03. It's a mix of 853>Aerco and 853>MP2 shows. Now how's that for a BWT!!!!!! _________________________________________________________________ MSN 8 helps eliminate e-mail viruses.

Date: Mon, 12 May 2003 23:06:15 -0700 (PDT) Hi, If someone could help me out on this it would be much appericated. I upgraded from windows 98 to XP and are having problems with my DAT drive which was a Seagate CDT8000R-S which I flash to make it the Archive type that could read audio. I can seem to see it at all in the device manager at all, although it pick up the scsi card. This did happen to me in WIN98 but once I installed Veritas Backup Exec Desktop it automatically pick up the drive and installed the drivers and popped up in the device manager. I installed the WIN2K version of Backup Exec on my XP system but it still didnt pick up the DAT drive. If someone could please help me on this I would be forever great full. Thanks in advance.

I have an *amazing* copy of the show on DVD, but the audio's not that great. It almost sounds like a 2nd or 3rd gen tape, but the picture is pristine. If you have a super clean copy of the audio and don't have the video, I have a friend that can sync them and I'll send you a copy of the DVD along with other stuff. Please let me know if you can help.

D ------------------------------ From: "Bob Siegl" Subject: PRO DECK - PCM 2600 price reduced Date: Tue, 13 May 2003 17:29:07 +0000 I have a Sony PCM-2600 for sale. This has been my "extra" DAT player for a few years. Very light use. Not many DAT copies made with this and not too many CD transfers either. I am pretty sure I have the original box. Owner's manual and remote included. 16 bit D>A, A>D, Adjustable XLR outs (nice...), XLR in, AES and Coax digital in and out. Can be sourced through as a DAC if you have an older CD player with a digital out. $450 which is roughly 1/4 the retail price. This deck is in nice shape and plays great. Please Email me if you may be interested. Thanks for reading this. Bob _________________________________________________________________ Tired of spam?

Date: Tue, 13 May 2003 10:40:41 -0700 (PDT) hey is there anybody out there using rechargeable 9volt batteries to power a sonosax preamp? i've been using nimh cells to power my d8/m1 for years without issue, but those cells range from 1600 to 2000 mah. the highest mah rating i can find on nimh 9volts is 160 -- and this number is low enough that i'm skeptical of its ability to power a high-drain, critical device like a preamp. here's a link for the set i'm looking at: http://www.onlybatteries.com/showitem.asp?ItemID=11571.2 if someone can tell me how long a pair of these 160 mah cells will power a sonosax, i'd appreciate it. also... if anyone knows of better cells, please speak! thanks a lot peter ===== ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ web: http://home.nyc.rr.com/pedroworld AIM: sleepypedro ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!?
