(313) [Detroit] Goodnight Comrade w/Keith Tucker - Tonight, Friday 2nd September 2005
Denis Baldwin Jr - friend to many, acquaintence to all. You've heard the rumors, and it's true - he's moving to Florida. We're not exactly sure why.. but he's going, and we're sending him off properly. GOODNIGHT COMRADE a farewell to a friend http://sneak.datavibe.net/misc/flyers/20050902-goodnight-comrade Friday, 2nd September, 2005 CE 10PM-10AM, free At the Focus Media Bunker: 440 E. Lafayette (above Niki's Pizza and the Bouzouki) Detroit, Michigan (877) 748-3467 (my (sneak's) cell for directions or assistance) This evening, for your listening pleasure, we have worked quite dilligently to arrange for the following lineup: * Keith Tucker ** Aux88/Puzzlebox * Benji Hayes ** Focus Media * Darkcube ** Detroit Techno Militia * Dethlab ** DoyleBethany * [EMAIL PROTECTED] ** hey, that's me * 'stos ** Fistclencher Records (also, if you're reading this via 313kids, your friendly neighborhood list admin!) * T. Linder ** Detroit Techno Militia I've spent the whole day doing the usual party preparation thing - moving huge cabinets filled with gigantic speakers about from place to place, connecting large rubbery cables from oversized amplifiers to said cabinets, buying vast reserves of liquor and that weird 7.3% canadian beer, disposable plastic cups, ice, et cetera, and generally freaking out. Much effort is being expended to ensure that everyone that attends has as much fun as we are by doing all of this. Additionally, we strongly recommend that before you come to be assaulted by the waves of bass eminating from our WTF Soundsystem, that you go and visit our friends Derek Plaslaiko and Ryan Elliott over at Vault at Oslo this same evening put together by those fine gentlemen at Ghostly. That's going to be awesome too and we're all sad we can't be in two places at once. I'm going to bed because tomorrow is going to kill us all. See you there. Love, -j -- Rev.

(313) bob moog
from http://www.moogmusic.com/ : ASHEVILLE, N.C. . August 21, 2005 . Bob died this afternoon at his home in Asheville, N.C. He was 71. Bob was diagnosed with brain cancer (glioblastoma multiforme or GBM) in late April 2005. He had received both radiation treatment and chemotherapy to help combat the disease. He is survived by his wife, Ileana, his five children, Laura Moog Lanier, Matthew Moog, Michelle Moog-Koussa, Renee Moog, and Miranda Richmond; and the mother of his children, Shirleigh Moog. Bob was warm and outgoing. He enjoyed meeting people from all over the world. He especially appreciated what Ileana referred to as the magical connection between music-makers and their instruments. No public memorial is planned. Fans and friends can direct their sympathies or remembrances to www.caringbridge.com/visit/bobmoog. Bob's family has established The Bob Moog Foundation dedicated to the Advancement of Electronic Music in his memory. Many of his longtime collaborators including musicians, engineers and educators have agreed to sit on its executive board including David Borden, Wendy Carlos, Joel Chadabpe, John Eaton, David Mash, and Rick Wakeman.

That way you incent people to support the vendors and can get at least an additional $500,000 of support, which also gives advertisers more of a feeling that they will get the attention they want. Just a thought. I came up with the exact same idea on Monday, after being hassled for the umpteenth time by one of the same dozen bums that's ALWAYS wandering around downtown. Forget the $500k it'd bring to the funding... the real benefit would be keeping out the bums. This will, of course, never happen, because the only way that the festival is the largest anything in the world is with the free qualifier, and we all know that they'll never let that one die. -j -- Rev.

Technically, even someone who just carries in their DAT and hits play and stands there staring out at the crowd is 'performing'. I'm not going to take sides in the it's all about the music debate, but don't say that someone who stands motionless and stares unblinkingly at a laptop for an hour is any less of a performer than the most visible and energetic of trick djs. They're certainly not as -good- of a performer, but they are covered equally by the definition of the word. I think that this would be a non-issue if people who do, for example, laptop PAs, projected their video output on a screen behind them so you can see what they're doing. It's a lot more difficult giving the crowd something to look at if you're not doing something on a flat horizontal surface. Most performers who don't play records forget this all too often. Now for my personal opinion: Do you have 10kW of sound in your basement? How about a few hundred people? Yeah, I didn't think so. Give me 'Play' on the DAT out in a condusive environment any day over armchair listening. -j -- Rev.

Even if BeOS did run on a mac though, final scratch won't, unless they specifically release powerpc-beos binaries (yeah right). All this is moot though, nobody but bald geeks with weird glasses will run beos on their laptop just for final scratch anyways. However, to be honest, you don't want to run this system under windows or mac os ANYWAYS. one of the most amazing things about the beos is its natural audio latency time. STANDARD this OS spits out audio at THREE MILLISECONDS. 3 ms. Think about that one more time. That means the ONLY time a dj is going to really noticed any latency is when he's doing some heavy scratching, and minute at best. When you look at windows with its 35ms on a great day latency, you see why this system needs to be run on be os. a) it's not that amazing b) it's not unique to beos c) 35msec latency is approaching noticible, but for djing purposes, wouldn't affect anyone except those doing lots of scratching. Besides, with a program specifically written to be a realtime application, it would much likely be a half to a third of that, which is virtually unnoticable. this is possible on both macos and all versions of windows. -j Jeffrey Paul [EMAIL PROTECTED] (877) 748 3467 ICQ: 14295546 AIM: kw34hd1 NXTL/DC: 130*21*16749 PGP: 0xF50BB9D7 A21AFD828C30EC77545DA0B3F501F50BB9D7 - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

To answer someone else, if you chop it in an audio editing program pre-burning, then load all the tracks in to your burning software, and make sure you burn DAO (Disc-At-Once) with zero-second gaps between tracks (the redbook specification requires a 2 sec gap before track 1, so for everything but the first) it should burn with no blips between tracks, provided you didnt fux up the slicing in your audio editing program.

If you're really anal though, one might consider using distilled water, as there's chlorine and traces of other corrosive things in tapwater, but i'm doubtful it'd hurt anything. I gather most people dont have access to ultra-pure micrometre filtered autoclaved water which is totally 100% pure, and unlikely to react with anything. I'm not sure about sterile (autoclaved), but distilled water is available at the supermarket in big jugs, which should be straight-up h2o. -j -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] - 0x514DB5CB he who lives these words shall not taste death becoming nothing yeah yeah forever liquid cool

What file format are you referring to, or are you making this up as you go? by 'dvd-quality-sound', you either mean 5.1 surround (which doesn't directly benefit this appliction, although might have neat uses), or the fact that each channel is 48khz (dat quality). CDs are 44.1khz, which is nearly indistinguishable from 48. IIRC, MP3 supports 48khz sampling rate files. If I'm wrong, and it 'only' supports 44.1khz, then it's still not that much of an audible difference. If you're talking about DTS, that's an entirely different can of worms and is still years off from having reasonably priced computer equipment that can input/output that kind of sound. and no one will want to use the present format anymore. MP3 supports the audio quality formats (16/48/stereo) that people have been using for years (15 years if you count 44.1, which is what CDs are). To claim it's going to just 'go away' in the next 2 is kind of absurd. vinyl has stood the test of time, and it isn't going to disappear anytime soon. As have CDs, which the huddled masses have eaten up as the end-all to audio quality. -j
