Take it from me, whoever pissed off Skerik, he/she probably did
something very minor, and it was used a vehicle for a "no taping policy".
He would probably do the same for GAT if he could.
All I can say, this is a 2 way street, and the days of FZ and Jon
Smothers are long gone.
Yes, taping is a privilege, and so is not promoting a band.

I may be able to fix the bad file with some help, but
would like a clean copy anyways.
Please get in touch if you can help me out.
I need encore 11-20 and set 1 for 11-21

hi, got a very nice recording of rufus wainwright from philly 11/21/03,
dpa4061>d8. i missed the very first seconds of the first song but otherwise
everything seems great with it. i will have this over onto cdr in a week or
two but am looking for fellow tapers of this current rufus tour, especially
the DC show from 11/20.
i am also looking for related acts: ben folds (especially the GWU show from
november 1st), jon brion, elliott smith, sondre lerche, and of course more
rufus. also interested in britpop, shoegaze, "postrock instrumental (gybe,
mogwai," and bands of this sort. your list gets mine.

I recorded Skerik earlier in the tour with stage mics.
It took a friend of mine, who was friends with the trumpet player to talk
with them to allow it. They were ready to deny it outright
She (my friend) vouched for me and my ethics and talked them into allowing
it
I usually grab the soundboard as well as stage mics and did this for the
opener
The board was denied however and I got stage mics only.
(they seemed to be in fear of it "being on the internet" whatever that means
- easier distribution of the music? - the lost sales argument?)
I had drinks with them before (last game of the world series was on during
the opener)
we were all hanging out watching the game and nothing was said for or
against recording them
They were friendly (but pissed about the outcome of the last game)
I haven't spread this around at all...nobody has actually asked for it
(except that friend)!
and I have kept it on the lowdown (no offers or uploads) out of respect for
them, etc.
(please don't email me asking for it - I will send them a copy and ask if I
can spread it around when the tour is over)
Of course recording is a privledge, but Skerik should be consistent with his
policy
instead of us having to approach him each time depending on a mood of a
soundman or whatever

In the past it has been drilled into me by various taper's, web sites,
etc, the A>D or D>A conversion process is very susceptible to EMI, RMI,
RFI, whatever. To properly perform the A>D process, it should be done
in a seperate device, in it's own case. Tthere are reasonable priced
units, that do a great job. I use a ART DI/O. It is wall wart powered,
and does any bit/sample rate from 16/44.1 to 24/96 A>D, D>A. It's very
handy for doing transfers for CD from an analog source. I use it to run
Cassette>WAV via a Delta Dio 2496. I am also transferring a number of
LP's to DAT. I use it instead of the internal A>D converter in the
DAT. I've also used it to record WAV's out of my computer to a Reel to
Reel. I guess I've been around long enough to have experienced, and
believe nothing sounds as good as a Reel to Reel. Friends don't let
friends use internal A>D processors.

Subject: 24bit audio splitting for archiving to FLAC
Date: Sat, 22 Nov 2003 15:48:44 -0500
If I wanted to archive and split 24bit audio files to FLAC format, which
program would be appropriate to split the 24bit auio wav files before
encoding to FLAC?
With 16bit files, CD wave is beneficial because of splitting tracks on
sector boundaries, does this really apply to 24bit recordings?
I have Sound Forge 7.0 but found with 16bit recordings I had sector boundary
issues while extracting regions.(Sound Forge did not split the tracks on
sector boundaries)
I do make DVD-A discs for playback of the 24bit recordings with trackpoints
and MLP encoding. but wanted a way to archive the data in a loseless
compression and split the waves into different tracks without the question
of causing gaps in the original 24bit wav file.
I also cannot get CD wave 1.91 to support 24bit playback to determine exact
split location. Any help would be appreciated

For what it's worth, here in Des Moines the 50- and 30-pack made-in-Japan
Fujis are still pretty plentiful. The local Best Buys had 'em this week for
the special, Office Max or Office Depot has 'em (I can never remember which
store is which), even KMart has 'em.
I've laid in a supply of 200 of the Japanese Fujis. At the rate I burn, this
is more than a year's supply. Thank goodness the discs say "Made in Japan"
right on them so people won't think I'm pushing Tiawanese crap when I'm
still trading with them in 2004. ;-)

hey all,
did anyone tape this?
a mis-inserted mic jack sadly wrecked my attempt of
this outstanding show...maybe someone else was more
successful.
if so please reply off-list,
here's hoping,
mike

Subject: Sound Card Help Needed
Date: Sun, 23 Nov 2003 06:02:35 -0800 (PST)
Hello all,
I just updated to WinXP and have everything tweaked
except for my digital sound card. I have a
Waveterminal 2496.
I am recording by going into the digital input with a
Tascam DA-20 and using good cables. I have the
Waveterminal console setup properly also. When I
record I get pops on ~1sec intervals. I think it is
coming from a Win sub-routine - something like a
self-check of the system, but am not sure. Any help
would be greatly appreciated in getting whatever this
is turned off so I can get back to recording :)
Thanks!!
peace,
Travis
