  1. Wow , Chris , you have made obnoxious comments on the thread of your sale , then come here , and show you dont know how to read , He said , " 5$ on AS MANY AS YOU WANT TO BUY " which very simply means if you buy 20 discs , he will put them ALL in ONE box , and charge you 5 bucks for the shipping , ( if the shipping happens to be 7.50 , he makes the difference )
  2. Nice thing about AOL Radio , is if it is your active window , "Shift+Command(cloverleaf) + C " will copy the Song and Artist info , then with a Word type document opened Command+V , Paste the info , so you can make a Running list of song info , say if your recording from the radio , then go back and enter on the MD Just print the list when your done , then carry it with you , edit the disc on the train or wherever . All Labeled nice and neat.
  3. 2 weeks now with no iTunes ,........ AOL radio runs constantly , hmmmmmmm,...... go FStream too......... QT is set in prefs to Play all my Music and Video , Havent missed it one bit . Got Divx , COG ( great programmable player , just drag the files to it reorder them how you want them to play , whatever format FLAC , OGG, MP3 , WAV, AIFF , doesnt matter , they will all cue , and play in the order you want them to ) Making Curry with , Masala Chicken , and listening to Vivaldi .
  4. I am soooo glad I am on a Mac ,........no offense to you , but I hear SOOOOO many problem with Vista , I had XP , and Kept mainly virus free , via AVG , Spybot Search and Destroy , and prodigous port closing . But I bought a Mac 1 and a Half years ago , and wont go back
  5. hey Dave , sometimes it takes awhile , some people dont check the boards everyday , sometimes once a month .
  6. Bland isnt really interested in me , He lives here in the same city , and I have thrice tried to make his acquaintance . The earthquake was quite a ways north of us , but I REALLY appreciate your concern , it means a lot . The sad truth is , that fault line is building up pressure and it WILL culminate right under Tokyo in the not to distant future , everyone I speak to is worried about it , all the Obachans and Ojisans are saying the same thing . They remember the last big one from the area , I had a Guitar student who is a member of the Global Geological Research dept. , a Professor in in Seismology and just plain damn smart from any point of view . She was showing me all the info she had gathered on the Asian plate system , and where the pressure was distributed , she goes back and forth from Japan to Greece every 6 moths or so , keeping tabs on the European plate system , and the Asian plates . there is big trouble coming , we just dont know exactly when . Kurihama is just a taste
  7. for what your doing Version 1.10 isnt an issue , it really is the Quiet room I recorded a Billiards Hall today in MP3 mode and it is pretty fat . I will be using a lot of sound samples for intros and transitions on my cd . A story line if you will . So that is one of my main uses for the DR1 , also I NEEDED the limiter ( Breaks in a pool hall are pretty dynamic) I couldnt really do this sample well with MD not to get the levels I nedded. I also recorded a Flea Market , walking around in a Crowd of Japanese people in a Flea Market . Both with no real noticeable noise , but I come home to a VERY quiet room , and ............. there is the issue . I played with the new R-09 HR yesterday , and I will take my AT822 with me the next time , it was pretty darn clean , but it doesnt have the OVERdubbing feature that the DR1 has . That is a Big plus for me , getting Guitar lessons together .
  8. then tell me why Vodaphone still has active branches here . So Bland said the Softbank bought them ,......... I didnt argue , I in fact said THX , He said , " There were NOT Two Japanese carriers mentioned ." When without the knowledge of the Softbank buyout , the logical conclusion is in Fact TWO companies were mentioned on the slide ( Not verbal ) No Offense intended at all , I saw Vodaphone , and I saw Softbank ........ Ergo TWO Japanese Companies , it is right there in the picture , anyone can see it . This conversation was in fact supposed to be about how this would play out for the rest of the Audiophiles , and what direction the portable Audio format was going to take . Instead it is turning into an argument over the Business end of the iPhone ................... I Quote "Lets have a discussion of how this will affect the last vestiges of Audiophilia , and personal music " you said , "As long as Apple selling it locked to a provider, it will never fly in Asia, where pretty much all phones from Nokia, SE, HTC, etc are being sold unlocked, even under a contract. I'm not paying for a locked phone and being forced into an expensive contract at the same time." that really had nothing to do with the conversation I was looking for ........oh well . The forums are decending into a bashing game , and nitpick game .................... enough already
  9. ahhh ok accepted , I didnt know Softbank Bought Vodaphone .........thx ,But I have to correct you TWO Japanese companies are shown . on the Vid It Clearly Showed Vodaphone on that list as he was speaking of the carriers , down at the bottom right of the scrolling display of all the carriers . Also the video clearly Shows , Softbank , AND Vodaphone separately ,.........ergo................ the TWO Japanese Carriers is easily assumed ( Bottom left is Softbank , on the Right is Vodaphone )
  10. On the Video Steve specifically showed Vodaphone on the list of providers , I beg to differ , This is exactly why I said THE WHOLe video needs to be watched What is it with "Glance and Know " with everyone these days , .......... Skim thru something , you miss every thing . there were in fact TWO different Japan providers shown ...... so if it is an announcement from another source , then it is a wait and see thing .
  11. Well , depending on the Gig , There are Mic holders that Clamp to a Drum kit ( You probably have a couple with your drummer ) but get one that has an extension , and the 39 dollar holder , and Clamp the holder to a Ceiling Rafter or one of the Electrical pipes , or wiring pipes if there are any , then you WILL be able to center it , and place it back in the Audience without anyone getting to it ( This is what I have ALWAYS done ) I carry a clamp type mic rig where ever I go play , and mount my AT-822 on it . Great results every time. here is one design , you could probably make one from Hardware parts here is another one
  12. OOOOOOOOHHHHHHH Dat's PUUUUURTY ........ I want one ! Ohh by the way , Took apart the MIxer , and cleaned inside the Faders with alchohol and q-tips , vacuumed out the circuit board , and pots , put it back together and tested it . Unbelievable Sound for a 30 year old mixer , FAT FAT FAT , I will post something after I get some spray lube for the Pots and Faders , get everything smooth .
  13. yeah I agree with that , but in Japan it will be on several different servers I think , starting with Vodaphone , I am on Tuka ( which I believe is Vodaphone ) now so I would have to check that out , if not the iPod touch will be revamped with the new software , and it is wireless so , if it can use 3g and WiFi , then free spots are everywhere and cheap spots are even easier to find . There are some services for wireless that are 30 bucks a month with full country coverage ( Internet only)
  14. Yah , but I am not talking about the previous iPhone Bob , talking about the new one coming out July 11 , very different machine , and much cheaper on the front end ( The service plane will still be the drainer)
  15. She has already bought an MD , game over , kill the thread . I am talking to her about a mic privately
  16. There is one source of the debate eh! Is it the Calls or The Box ....... if it is the Overall sound quality , then that is one of the MAIN complaints that everyone has had with the iPod series , is in comparison with MD , The "i" stuff just plain did not sound good this new model has a Flush headphone jack , so that you don't need an adapter , you can use ANY headphones you want to, not just the White social identity tags that come with the iPhone . The Gaming on it looked really cool full 3d graphical and tilt motion control , I thought the Medical Programs were very cool , viewing full Scalable MRI imaging and every other aspect of anatomy and medicine is going to make the Doctor /Patient interaction , quite a bit easier .
  17. If you listened to Jeigermeisters , that was all done with the internal mics The Bass response was incredible I have a new unit ( Tascam swapped mine out ) and have 1.10 on it , the main thing is the "Quiet Room" in a quiet room the noise filter algorithim just doesnt know what to look for so the unit gets noisy ....... Also I have noticed that when using headphones to monitor what I am recording , there is more noise than when not using phones . So there is a slight Power management issue . If i ever get schematics , I think I could make a workaround for the Mic1 input , so someone send me a Pdf if you find one . I just need to trace the lines for Mic 1 to the IC , and the Two sets of resistors that form the Ratio for the input impedance there is one set for the Internal mics , and then another set just before the Mic 1 in joins the main in the the IC ,........ If I can pinpoint those two set without having to take mine all to pieces then I can make AND POST a workaround so the external mics will give a MUCH better output .
  18. For once .......... I think They might get it right . The new iPhone , has " Drastically Improved Audio Performance " Their words not mine But that being said ...... The SdK that comes with the new software someone will be writing audio apps for the iPhone soon 199 for the 8Gb , full 3G compliance , and support in 70 countries now . unbelievable , ....... it also has GPS ......... The video is worth a watch , apple.com watch the wwdc2008 then lets discuss AFTER YOU WATCH THE WHOLE VIDEO , no slackers or uninformed opinions Lets have a discussion of how this will affect the last vestiges of Audiophilia , and personal music ( I got a TOTAL KICK out of the "Band" application for iPhone .......... you MUST watch , I think I will give in on this one ,.......... Because it IS Mac based , I could have a COMPLETELY English phone ............in JAPAN , YAYYYYYYYY!!!!!!!!
  19. What speed are the Cards? That may have an effect , If they arent class 6 compliant they may be too slow or , you may have a Bad unit , try again at home with some different settings first to make sure, and save the original file , so that if there is a prob you can take it back and show them .
  20. Just went to Hardoff today .....( Again) To introduce a freind to the wonders of "Used Gear " My last 1,500 yen , netted me ...... a Teac M-09 Mixer still working, unchecked by the store , and in the Junk bin just because its is sooooo old. I have already tested and confirmed it works ( Quite WELLL at that ) almost noise free performance , except for the controls and internals are in dESPERATE need of cleaning . When I Get done cleaning it , it will look like this
  21. Besides HI MD Transfer 2.0 for Mac. There are some very cool ways to get jams . And Also ways to work around problems with MSN Video . If your using Safari ( I have no need for three or four browsers) , When you klik on a link to an MSN video , your greeted with " Your Browser isnt supported " ......pure BS Try this , klik on a MSN video link , where that message pops up in Safari , now.......instead of closing that window or hitting the Back Arrow in the Browser frame , Hit the Delete key . you will be looking at the Video page , from there , klik the MUsic tab , select an artist , and the little + buttonat the bottom right in each of the video frames on the page , adds them to a Playlist ,........................ bam load them , then in the Video window that actualy plays the vids , bottom right is the fullscreen button Line out to your MD , Headphones or Line out from the MD to your speakers , there you go . Watching Sheryl Crow , with 15 videos in the Playlist full screen right now . Have fun ( The Last Video , is actually the entire concert 82 minutes 11 seconds)
  22. For Portable the only IC or Flash based recorder that will compare in the " Budget realm " is the PCM-D50 .......... I want one myself
  23. With the nature of Sony"s vehemence , Openly posting the idea of reverse engineering their proprietary software , whether defunct or not , I dont think is a very good idea . There are Sony people who browse the boards , unknown to you . Sony's R&D dept , is on 24 hour search and find , to determine trends and figure out was WILL be popular . ( Even though they get it wrong half the time )
  24. actually my startup is a little faster , now that you mention it . I noticed it this morning , > Blue line , now starting Mac OS , BAM there was the desktop. So that was cool !!
