Security Question For LA Venues (Matthew Giller) ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- From: "Rich Gomes" Subject: Brickwalling\attenuation question Date: Wed, 30 May 2007 20:11:26 -0400 Since these two are somewhat related, I figured I'd combine them. I recently recorded a show thru the mic in on my D8 (I wasn't getting good readings thru the line in and I panicked), well needless to say, the tape brickwalled. It's not a complete disaster (somewhat mild) so I am hoping to repair it with software. Is there a proven method for cleaning this up? i.e.. some software that had a 'anti-brickwalling' restoration feature, some proven hard-limiting solution or EQ settings solution? This was a great show and it would really suck if I couldn't get it to a more listenable state. As far as attenuation goes, is this kit good for a D7\D8? Will it work for both mic-in situations and SBD feeds? Will it give me the right db setting? http://www.shoey.com/dat/xlr2rca.asp Thanks in advance, Rich ------------------------------ From: "Rich Gomes" Subject: Hard disk\flash based recording Date: Wed, 30 May 2007 20:13:02 -0400 It's looks like my D7 finally went belly up. It seems to be in an infinite reboot cycle. While I am borrowing a D8 I figure I'd open up the discussion again about hard disk\flash based solutions. The ones I am considering are: Edirol R-09 M-Audio MicroTrack 24/96 Zoom H4 Handy Recorder Korg MR-1 My basic requirements are: Frequency response comparable to or better than DAT, large file capacity, auto-leveling for loud sources, hold\lock buttons, ability to use external mics etc... What I am looking for from this post is actual user experience and opinions. Please reply to the list, I am sure there are other people considering the same purchase. Also, what advantage does the 1bit recording method (the Korg MR-1) have over the others? Thanks in advance, Rich ------------------------------ From: "Bob S."
