  Hi DAT Heads, I have two questions:

     1. Who manufactured the CM300 Nak mics?
     
     2. Anyone hear and have an opinion on the DPA 4011 series microphones?
  
   Thank you for any response.  Rick

Subject: Jitter-Killer? Digital sources: DAT vs. CD

Hi all,

I'm a fervent DAT-head living in Holland (like in Europe). Most of my
music is on DAT because my exquisite CD-collection got burglarized in
the nineties ...

I'm using a Tascam DA-20 Mk II at the moment (just sold my DA-30 Mk II
because I wanted a remote).

I also upgraded my amps & speakers (used Martin Logan CLS IIz). My
latest upgrade was an Electrocompaniet ECD-1 Upsampler DAC (great
machine!) and here my problems begin:

I thought all my digital sources would sound the same when played via
the ECD-1 but now I find that the sound from my CD-player is much
better than from the Tascam although the digital cabling is the same
for both.

Isn't the digital input the same from CD as from a digital copy from
that same CD to a DAT? So I'll have to look for Jitter-killers? I could
get a used Audio Alchemy DTI plus for 200 Euros.

Or is the digital copy on the DAT already compromised with data/quality
irretreaveably lost? I'm using mostly new 90-m DDS-tapes. I'm baffled.

Before the ECD-1 the sound from my DAT-deck (Tascam DA-30 Mk II then)
and the CD-player (Creek CD-43 Mk 2) was almost as good with slightly
less detail but warmer sound from the DAT. But since I use the ECD-1
DAC the difference is great: much less spatial and duller from the
DA-20 Mk II compared to the Creek.

What gives? Anyone out there who encountered a similar difference? I
talked to a salesman at a High-End shop today who said that the
DAT-format was always lesser than CD because there's always something
lost during the copying process. He tried to sell me an Audio Alchemy
Clearstream cable. But as my cables seem to work well what would be the
point? I thought he was bullsh*** me ...

I'm stumped. Any useful comment is highly appreciated. I hope to hear
from you soon.

Truly, Jörg Duurkoop.

Subject: ISO: Chris Goss/ Masters of Reality/ Pink Wolves/ QOTSA/ Tomahawk
Date: Fri, 05 Sep 2003 12:02:03 -0400

Hello All,

Found out that Masters of Reality main man Chris Goss has been doing some 
underground gigs in the LA area under the name Pink Wolves. Essentially, 
Chris assembles a band for the evening from his friends from QOTSA, the 
Flys, Lanegan etc... and they play Masters of Reality tunes. They have 
played several shows so far and I was wondering, hoping that someone had 
bothered to tape them.

If not, if there are any tapers that would be interested in taping one of 
the most influential people in the stoner rock movement then don't miss 
these shows. If I can con anyone who is not interested in this band into 
taping these performances, I'd be happy to pay for admission and some 
drinks. They would be stealth though since they are not terribly taper 
friendly.

A QOTSA/ Tomahawk/ Masters of Reality LA show is tentatively planned for 
October too so that would also be appreciated.

Anyone with any info.... I have access to some incredibly rare Masters stuff 
(like the 1987 Haloween Radio Broadcast that features almost all their early 
demos!!) that I would be willing to trade for these shows...

Get in touch and thanks in advance,

Steve
