Title: Spring tour FLAC offer
Post by: ChrisF on April 26, 2004, 04:29:11 pm
I have most of the shows from the tour that Chris M taped while working the merch table. They come to about 8.6 GB and will fit on 2 DVD-Rs in FLAC format. If anyone wants to give me 2 DVD-Rs at the tim show on wednesday or at cafe 9 on fri i will burn the FLAC files and have the DVDs back to you by Saturday\'s show.

Sorry, i dont have the time to go to the post office or burn audio or FLAC CD-Rs at this time, But i will burn them for everyone that wants the FLAC files on DVD-R because its less work for me.

i\'ve never bought these before. what kind of dvd-r would you recommend? and is dvd+r something totally different from dvd-r ?

if you have a dvd-rom drive you should be able to read both. my dvd burner can burn both, so it really doesnt matter. i always use dvd+r though

so are these DVD\'s w/ visual & audio, or just audio?  

I guess they have to be DVD\'s because they hold more info & all the shows will fit onto 2 discs??

its just audio. there are 15 shows here. each show would normally fit on 1 or 2 cd-rs apiece in flac format. i am not going to burn about 20+ cd-rs for each person, so if i put the flac files on dvd it will keep things quick and simple because all 15 shows will fit on 2 dvd-rs. i am sure someone without a dvd-rom drive will give me dvd-rs or someone will be expecting to get video.

I should be getting the rest of the tour from chris m on saturday.  thanks chris m for doing a great job taping!.   if all goes well, I should have them transfered in a week or so.

we need a volunteer to help upload these shows to archive.  my internet connection keeps dropping out.  thanks chris f for buring shows for everyone.

My DAP1 is very old and is becoming very unreliable.  It ate a few tapes from the tour.  we need to buy a nomad with an 80 gig hard drive and a mic preamp.   I am willing let him use my mics for the next tour/summer.

whats a good/cheap mic pre?
whats the best price for nomad with 80 gig drive?

I have an almost new Sony A7 (serviced etc) sitting in my Apt transfer rig. Matt if you ever need me to return the favor and do transfers for you guys let me know. I run them on a completely seperate setup so I have my laptop free for tracking etc. I can bang them out if needed even if it is to hand off the RAW PCM and do nothing to it.

Also I was IMing ChrisF before. If you want me to run your mics ever just let me know. I don\'t have the 460\'s for the Cafe 9 show but after chatting with ChrisF I think we got some good ideas. If you gonna have your mics at the show it is always nice to have sweet sounding AKG\'s flying.

Also Uplaoding. As many of you know I work at an ISP and have a decent pipe in my Apt so if you guys need upolad help let me know. Someone just got to point me in the right direction when it comes to Archive.org. I just have neever botherede to upload there before.

PS Will any of you be at StrangeCreek ??? I will have the 460\'s there

if chris is uploading then i wont bother making them for peck, I offered bc i thought you needed the gateway to upload.

as long as it gets out there, thats all that matters

these shows are all set. dave can upload the next batch of spring shows that matt is working on getting converted to FLAC. it sure takes a long time to upload a whole tour at 30 KB/s. I am about half done though. I just havent set them up yet so they show up on the archive.org page. I will try to do that tonight so i do not have 15 shows to import into the database at once.

I was listening to a bunch of these yesterday afternoon, and it made me realize how spoiled we are with the multitracking these guys put out. These shows were all recorded using the dat,  2 mic channels in. I don\'t even think they are soundboard. I think they are true \'audience\' recordings. You can definetly hear the difference between these shows and the other recent shows.


you guys rock!
:P

paul, a lot of my md5s are failing for these shows. can you check yours so we can figure out where this problem came from? maybe matt didnt copy all of the files over to his hard drive when he brought it to my house.
