Hi All,
Chris Whitley is hittin the road again and I am hoping to find enough kind
souls to tape him. He IS taper friendly and will be playing Solo electric.
He allows SBD and Audience recordings and his management only asks that you
send them a copy on cdr of the show. The shows are typically around $10-$15
a ticket and usually run around 70-80 minutes. Please shoot me an email if
you are able to tape and if you have any questions. I have a lot of shows
from many different bands to offer in trade for a show. Here's the show
dates:

I recently had to recover two drives (in the same week!) with NTFS
partitions that were corrupted. One was due to bad sectors. It would
mount but the directories were not readable. The second drive had the
partition table over-written completely. I was able to recover both
drives using a program called R-Studio
(http://www.data-recovery-software.net/). It is not a free program but it
is reasonably priced. They have a downloadable "demo" that will scan your
hard drive for lost partitions and files. It will display the files found
but only allow you to recover files 64KB or smaller. I did this and
started jumping up and down when I saw my files and was able to recover a
few small files. I then paid for "R-Studio NTFS" online and had my files
back that afternoon.

I have recently been given an old (read ancient) Sony pcm-2500 (the two box
machine). I have a problem with the analog inputs and outputs. This
machine sounds REALLY tinny (no bass at all) when playing back. Using the
digital out (SP/DIF) and an outboard D/A converter sounds fine. Also, it
seams to be impossible to get a decent recording level and I think that
there is some sort of gain issue. Can anyone help me with these problems?
Thanks,
Gregory

That's a pro deck.

Are you feeding it a pro-level (+4 dBu) signal rather than consumer
level (-10 dBV)? The difference is about 12 dB.

I have a request that I thought that folks on this list might be
helpful on. I am taking an audio documentary class and we have to do a
four minute piece as our end of class assignment/graduation project. I
thought it might be interesting to tell a bit of my own story of how I
got into taping and how why I continue and my "philosophy" for doing
so. I was thinking that it would be very helpful to get the
perspective of others who do this as well as to why we do it and how
we explain what it is we do. I would appreciate any brief thoughts you
all might have as to:
Why you tape shows?
What is your personal taping philosophy? How do you explain to your
friends why you tape?
If you have some brief thoughts that you would allow me to quote in
the context of my four minutes, I think it would be helpful and would
be much appreciated. Any thoughts? Email me offlist. Thanks

I'm hoping some of you have taped any Cardboard Vampires shows. This
band has Jerry Cantrell and Billy Duffy in it. If you taped them or
have access to someone who did, please contact me.
