From: Owen O'Neill <phaelon56@yahoo.com> Subject: more analog vs digital Date: Wed, 16 Jul 2003 14:43:12 -0700 (PDT) Jimmy Wilkinson said - "In this month's Stereophile there is an editorial about the compression and peak limiting that recording engineers are using these days in order to increase the apparent loudness of the program material.... They are selective about it, and CD seems to be getting the worst of it compared to SACD and audio DVD. I wonder if what you are hearing is, at least in part, something like what he is talking about rather than purely the inadequacies of digital media. If this is the case, maybe you should have said "especially the newest issues" instead of "even the newest issues"." This has been a big problem on some of the Hendrix resissues that have come out under the aegis of the "family foundation". Hendrix fans who have heard and are familiar with some of the source soundboard tapes were puzzled by sound issues in the new CD;s. A transfer to .wav showed flat tops on many of the wave forms, apparently due to the compression techniques used. It's a shame that an incredible engineer like Eddie Kramer could get pulled into this but indeed - he was in charge of the new production engineering. ">LP's will always be my preferred listening source." After reading some of the dialoguies and comments recently, I pulled out a few pristine vinyl records - I had the turntable hooked up awhile back to do some digital transfers but hadn't really sat down to LISTEN to a record. I was amazed at how involving it is. I often thought that my tendency in recent years to allow music to sort of play in the background but rarely sittign down to just listen was an outgrowth of a change in tastes and priorities. I now believe there's more to it - the warmth and immediacy of the vinyl sound (despite the obvious flaws, shortcomings and harmonic distortions) was so much noticably more appealing. In all fairness, I should point out that my better 44.1 DAT recordings sound better than CD's - there must really be something to the notion that there are issues with production and mastering techniques. "Always is a long time, and I've heard some pretty good stuff at 24 bits and 96K samples per second. I can't demonstrate it, but I suspect that 24/192K is indistinguishable from analog, at least to human ears. Even if it's not, there will be some combination of sample size/rate that is. The only question is when it will be technically feasible. I have read at least some opinions that think that is now and that 24/96K is it." I have yet to hear 24/96 but have read comments from hard-core vinyl freaks who say that it's the first digital format they've ever heard that rivals vinyl analog sound. __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!?

From: zeus163@comcast.net Subject: Anyone taping the free Idlewild show? Date: Wed, 16 Jul 2003 23:15:24 +0000 I was wondering if anybody was planning on taping this or could tape it. That would be really cool. I taped them when they came through Seattle earlier in the year (and their acoustic gig which I also filmed). I've also taped their other Seattle gigs. Idlewild are pleased to confirm their appearance at The Village Voice 3rd Annual 'Siren Music Festival'! The 'Siren Music Festival' takes place at Coney Island Amusement Park, NYC, on Saturday, July 19, 2003. Entrance is free!

From: Sim <kissfan@nycap.rr.com> Subject: ISO: Some Fine Ladies Date: Wed, 16 Jul 2003 20:50:29 -0400 Does anyone have any Tegan and Sara, Bangles, or Sinead O'Connor DAT masters? Preferring DAT trades right now. CDR considered, but I don't have as much to trade. All DAT tapers/traders encouraged to send list/link for mine. Thank You Very Much, SIM
From: ognelson@uchicago.edu Subject: MPLS tapers? 7/19/2003: Paul Metzger solo; Salamander CD release Date: Wed, 16 Jul 2003 20:46:01 -0500 If anyone can tape this... (especially the Metzger set). His band, TVBC, is taper friendly, so I'm guessing he is too. Don't know about the other performers in this show. Please, someone! Thanks, Olaf ===== Forwarded message from tvbc <tvbc@tvbc.tv> ===== Date: Wed, 16 Jul 2003 18:28:58 -0500 From: tvbc <tvbc@tvbc.tv> Subject: Paul Metzger to play solo at Salamander CD release show this Saturday The reclusive local group Salamander (long form, Ash Ra Tempel-influenced psychedelia acclaimed by critics and record geeks on both sides of the Atlantic) will be playing on Saturday, July 19th at the Kitty Cat Klub in Dinkytown to celebrate the CD release of their long sold-out classic double LP "Birds Of Appetite" on the Australian label Camera Obscura. This will be an 18+ show, and they will be joined by Paul Metzger of TVBC doing a rare appearance on solo banjo (modified heavily with sympathetic strings and played in a raga-style) and their friends from Rhode Island, Black Forest/Black Sea. Bf/Bs features Jeffrey (formerly of the acclaimed acid-folk group The Iditarod) and his cellist friend Miriam doing extraordinary fractured and fingerpicked soundscapes with beautiful effects on everything. Should be an enjoyable evening. As this will take place in the upstairs portion of the venue, things will be a bit more on the mystical and acoustic end of the spectrum (the big st! acks and redline guitar noise will have to wait for a more volume-friendly venue), but will still shoot into the cosmos.... Things will get underway around 9:00PM. Kitty Cat Klub -- 315 14th Ave SE -- 331-9800 Paul Mezger- 9:30 black forest/black sea- 10:20 Salamander 11:15 Links: http://www.cameraobscura.com.au/cam037cd.htm http://www.tvbc.tv http://www.blackforestblacksea.com BWT: something CD or SHN from my list to first digester to reply

Reply-To: <rogers@wesellbud.com> Date: Thu, 17 Jul 2003 08:41:19 -0400 Howdy folks: I got some gear I am looking to sell. Anyone interested contact me off the list. Have a pair of the following: Sennheiser K6 capsules: The K6 powering module is the heart of this Sennheiser professional modular microphone system and can be powered either by its internal 'AA' size 1.5 V battery or by 12-48V phantom power. Different condenser microphone modules provide a wide variety of polar patterns. Matte black, anodized scratch-resistant finish. No scratches, perfect condition have had them for two years, bought them new. ME 64 Cardioid mic capsule: Back-electret Microphone Capsule suitable for K6 and K6P Powering Modules. The ME 64 is a cardioid microphone capsule designed for use with the K6 and K6P powering modules. It has a very wide range of applications including reporting, interviews, dubbing, live sound reinforcement and recording applications. Matte black, anodized, scratch-resistant finish. Bought them new less than a year a ago, no scratches, perfect condition. ME 66 Shortshot gun capsule: The ME 66 is a short gun microphone capsule designed for use with the K6 and K6P powering modules. It is especially suitable for live taping, film and broadcast location applications and for picking up quiet signals in noisy or acoustically live environments as it discriminates against sound not emanating from the main pick-up direction. Matte black, anodized, scratch-resistant finish. Bought them with the capsules two years ago, no scratches, perfect condition. Would like to sell all the caps and power modules togther: New is $1200 looking for $600 Also for sale: Denecke AD-20 pre amp: The AD-20 is a high quality battery operated microphone preamp coupled with a low noise 20 bit ADC. The SPDIF outputs are optical and coaxial and can drive standard consumer DAT machines or computers that accept digital audio I/O cards, such as the Zefiro ZA-2. New $315 - looking for $280 - used it for 3 shows - back up pre-amp - bought it 3 months ago. Seal Tight Equiptment Case: Tounge and groove continuous O-Ring system makes the case water, dust and air tight. The case is filled with a high-density cubed foam allowing for customizing. The case has a four-latch system. check it out at:http://www.micsupply.com/caseandracks.htm New is $90 - looking for $50.00 Please contact me off the list. Thanks Matt Rogers 917 807 7033
