From: BCLedfoot@aol.com Subject: M1 settings? Date: Mon, 21 Feb 2005 21:44:49 EST Hello Please excuse the rookie question. Just purchased a Sony M1 and would like to know the optimal settings to use for the settings on the back of the unit for live recording? Any help would be appreciated. Please contact off list. Thanks, -Brian
From: "Gary Davis" <g@hoxnet.com> Subject: More on .35 cent Maxell DVD-R(or+R) at Office Depot Reply-to: g@hoxnet.com Date: Mon, 21 Feb 2005 19:44:24 -0800 I had a little trouble finding the country of origin on these 50-packs, 2/$35, at Office Depot. Turns out it's just above the barcode, inside the barcode "box," and on Wilshire Blvd in LA they were made in Japan! Also, they are 8X write speed and a slightly different shade of yellow than the 4X ones. (Imagine, writing a full DVD in under 8 minutes!) Also, not to be an ad for Office Depot, but they have a 160GB HD for $49.99 after rebates. 160GB is the best side for a TiVo, as the Linux kernal in TiVo is limited to 127GB. Rather than adding a 2nd drive to the TiVo, the new preferred hack seems to be to clone your existing drive onto a larger drive, and put the old drive away as a back-up. Also, (in theory because I have not tried this), when you completely run out of space on your new 160GB drive, you can reclone the original drive to a new 160GB drive, and then with some difficulty, swap between the 160GB drives on the same TiVo (by Swap, of course, I mean turn the power off, change drives, and reboot). Note that you cannot generally change drives between different TiVos because they are serialized. --Gary
From: KindTaper@aol.com Subject: For Sale: Sony PCM-R500 in excellent condition Date: Mon, 21 Feb 2005 23:20:11 EST I have a Sony PCM-R500 DAT pro dat deck for sale. Here is a blurb with features: Sony PCM-R500 DAT Deck; Professional DAT recorder with four direct-drive motors; Shuttle and Jog Dial; Extensive interface options (including disabling SCMS copy function); Multiple menu modes; With 8-pin wired remote plus wireless remote; Independent Channel 1 & 2 record level controls; Analog Input/Output: Balanced (XLR), Unbalanced (RCA); Digital I/O: AES/EBU (XLR), Coaxial (RCA); Stereo phone jack with level adjustment; Parallel DIN 8-pin remote interface; Size: 5 3/4"H x 19"W x 14"D; Weight: 15 lb. 14 oz. You can find more info as well as a review on the unit where I swiped the above info: http://www.hometheaterhifi.com/volume_4_2/sonydat.html I purchased this unit brand new on 10/2/00, so it is only a little over 4 years old. I am the original owner and paid $909.50 for it including tax. It is still is fantastic cosmetic and operating condition, and comes in the original box, along with the wireless remote, operation manual, and power cord. I was not the average DAT trader. I don't think I ever cloned a tape on this unit during the 4 years I have had it. I also did not play tapes on the unit on a regular basis. I would record a show on my M-1 or D-8, then use the 500 to transfer the show to CD. I am not a DAT listener as some folks are. I prefer to transfer to CD, then store the DATs. The unit was used just a handful of times a month over it's lifetime, and sometimes not for a few weeks at a time. To my knowledge, Sony is no longer making DAT machines. I have seen several of these on e-bay for between $350-$500. Mine is for the most part like new and will provide excellent service to it's new owner. I would like to get $450, and I will pay shipping anywhere in the U.S. If you are overseas, you are welcome to purchase the machine, but be aware the shipping is about $80 to Europe, and this is a 115V machine. Please e-mail me if you have questions or want more information about the machine. I can send a few pics if you like. I would prefer to sell it to someone who has paypal and can pay for it immediately. I can accept credit cards through Paypal. I am also selling a large portion of my DAT collection, most of which are masters recorded on AKG 414TL-2's>OadeM248>SBM-1>D8. Please see my other post if that interests you. If you are interested in the tapes and the DAT deck, I will make you a good deal on both. Thanks, Wes Kindtaper@aol.com

From: KindTaper@aol.com Subject: DAT master collection for sale Date: Tue, 22 Feb 2005 00:44:30 EST After 8 years of taping and trading shows, I have finally decided that this is no longer for me. I had some great times, and some frustrating times, but I met some nice people along the way and heard a lot of great music, of all different styles. I have sold both rigs, my M-1, and now I need to sell the tapes and my PCM-R500. Please see my other post if that interests you. This is an excellent opportunity to start a DAT collection, or fill in gaps in your own. These are good quality, barely played tapes, mostly made on Audio grade HHB, Sony or Maxell DATs. Only a handful are on 90M tapes. Most of what I am offering here are jam-band masters, recorded from 1997-2001. Shows denoted with an * were recorded on AKG 414 TL-2's>OadeM248>SBM-1>D8. Many of the tapes have printed tape covers with setlist and rig info. Some tapes do not have source info, but most do. As I do not have a tapelist, I have no quick way to import all of the info to this post, so I will have to quickly type just the artist and date. All shows are complete unless noted. There are a total of around 295 tapes, unless I miscounted 1 or 2. I would like $550 OBO for the tapes (which is less than $2 each for tapes that cost me an average of $5) and I'll pay shipping in the US. First dibs go to whoever wants them all. If no one wants to buy the whole lot, I'll make another post offering them in lots. But I would prefer to sell them all, or a majority of them, to one person. Here is a list of the shows.
