>Hi James,
Let me reinterate my point in choosing earth Wind And Fire.
First you have to define Rock & Roll. What is Rock & Roll? Where did it come
from? To you and others, Rock & Roll came via the 60's with the Beatles with
a sound of Distorted Guitars.
But, that's not true.. It started in the 50's with Little Richard and Chuck
Berry, Ike Turner..Rock & Roll was formed by Swinging Blues..
Now, Earth Wind And Fire was not my favorite band growing up. I'm more partial
to Quincy Jones Brothers Johnson band.. But, when you factor in that a band
could and did cover all the STYLES of Rock & Roll..There's no denying that
Earth Wind and Fire topped the list in all forms.
Style, Vocals, Musicianship, Stage Persona, Choreography, Stage precision..
It's insulting to even compare them to a 3-4 bar chord band. It really is.
More often than not, most of these kind of list are voted from the "Heart"
than the head.
No, Detroit ( My Home Town) Should not be the home of Rock & Roll because,
you are talking about the "Distorted" Rock & Roll form. The Home of Rock
& Roll Should be in Memphis Tennessee or one of those Mississippi towns.

>Neil the reason you would not think them is because your definition of Rock
& Roll is of the "Distorted Guitar" form of Rock & Roll.
I grew up in the late 60's- 70's which in my opinion is some the greatest
music ever. My musical exposure growing up in Detroit is vast my many other
musicians coming from other states. In Detroit(inner-city), most of the players
grew up playing Hendrix out the gate right along with Motown, and bebop.
This was expected out of all Detroit Musicians..Now, my buddies accros 8
mile rd (aka the Burb) where ONLY concentrating on the "Hendrix" aspect of
the Rock art form..Hmmmm.. What's the reason for that.
Well, having many buddies rockers across 8 miles(akak the burbs), and afetr
many beers and jam sessions, we on the other side of the tracks (8 mile)
summized that they we just 'LAZY" and playing 3-4 bar chords and "licks was
easier to learn to play. Yep the old Beta vs VHS.
During the 70's in our region and across the US, playing the 3-4 bar chord
was every where. Me and my friends in'The Hood" were deep in studio of the
masters of Jazz,and you were not considered a"serious" musician if all you
played were 3-4 bar chords. By age 15, we were playing all forms of Rock
& Roll and we could go and sit in with any 3-4 bar chord bands and "ripped"
them a knew one :)..
I said all to say, that these kinds of list goes beyond personal taste, but
of the pure "ignorance" of the history of music..
Take care, LaMont

R+W. What I don't have right now is the RAM and the time to get around to
building another PC. I've got another 13 slot Magma with a hosed backplane
that I'm going to send to Magma for repair (hopefully) in the next 30 days
or so. Once that is resolved, I may give this a try. By that time, someone
will probably have beaten me to the punch.
I was going to use this machine as a standalone VSTi host and perhaps give
FXT another try with some of the newer stuff coming down the pike. As far as
using it for Paris is concerned, unless running a dual core CPU with Paris
could resolve UAD-1 latency issues so I could migrate to using Paris on Win
XP without all of these ADAT modules that need Win ME OS, there's really not
much interest in it for me. My AMD XP 2800 runs all the Paris stuff I need.
I do, however, feel the stirrings of some primal Frankenstinian
urges..........so we'll see ...........

Right now we are wrapped up in being a complete DIY indie thing (switching
from re-mastering engineer to graphic designer to webmaster to CD packing
and distribution, while working on some
new room treatment and finally getting down to CD 2 and, oh yeah,
almost forgot, writing songs :) ).
We sort of are trying to not think about "the biz", and actually kind of
enjoying the DIY thing, but, you know, a multi-million dollar deal with chicks
and cocaine and someone else to pack the CDs might change our mind (maybe)!
What is the event?
Thanks very much!

>Hi Sarah, thanks! I'm the king of broke, so I hear what you're
saying. (Maybe we're broke because we're always giving our stuff
away?!). Seriously though, The Mates actually made a pact to not
give any away, or swap or anything, even to friends or family
or even those damn industry people. For a long time, we
were giving our CD away, swapping with everyone, giving it away
on the net and so on, but since we have this new re-mastered one
with packaging and all, we feel we should try to be more real
about it, if you know what I mean. Hope that doesn't seem kinda dicky :)Thanks very much James!

Thanks very much for buying the CD, appreciate it.
You know, I remember a long while ago, when I posted The
Buzz Is Over here, and you said it was the first song in a long
while that you felt compelled to pick out the chords like a
Beatle song. That meant a lot to me, very inspiring. That sort of
comment is what keeps you going when feel like giving up.
So thanks very much Steve!

>I'll get back to you with more details in the next few days. I have a couple
of calls out right now to the organizers. If he's interested the first thing
Tony (or any A&R guy) will want to know is if you're ready to perform this
material live (as in 'giggin locally and on the road"). The fact that you
have a *radio ready* CD is a big plus. The fact that you guys are from LA is
also a plus. A & R guys like to walk in to a readymade money machine-act
with strong local following/draw piotential if at all possible. If you've
done a lot of self promotion and are making money due to your own efforts
and they can just sign you and get that money themselves is always a plus in
their book Whether or not there's enough in it for you to make it worth your
while is another matter altogether.

Forms a good basis though. Working on the jazz remix right now. :o)
By the way, I don't know what rating I gave yours... I clicked something
(not the stars) and it said "rating accepted" and went "But I didn't rate
it yet!!" so if you get there and I've given you a zero or something my apologies!
;o)

Yeah, that's the thing, all the stuff you mention, not sure if
we're really at the place they would want or need (we're not
playing live, for example). Plus, based on the experience we had
before, not sure if we really want to deal with that stuff right
now (long story).
But, you never know!
Thanks very much DJ.

>HOW LATEX GLOVES ARE MADE
A dentist noticed that his next patient, an elderly lady, was
looking very nervous so he decided to tell her a little joke as he put
on his gloves.
Do you know how they make these gloves?" he asked.
"No, I don't" she replied.
"Well," he spoofed, "there's a building in China with a big tank
of latex. Workers of all hand sizes walk up to the tank, dip in their
hands, let them dry, then peel off the gloves and throw them into
boxes of the right size."
She didn't crack a smile.
"Oh well, I tried," he thought. But five minutes later, during a
delicate portion of the dental procedure, she burst out laughing!
"What's so funny?" he asked.
"I was just picturing how condoms are made!" she said.
Gotta watch those little old ladies! Their minds are always
working!Hi, all.
Back in the 70's I owned and loaned a couple of LF bootlegs, which I never
got back!. I was reminiscing the other night, and decided to google the title
"Beak Positive" in the hope of locating a hard copy of this fab LP. (the
opener was a ROCKIN'
version of "Skin It Back".
I found a legit site which hosts open source "artist approved" live recordings
and I am now re-living my wayward youth to the tune of "Eldorado Slim", recorded
at the Santa Monica Civic Centre in 1973.
This site has all you could eat, feat-wise.

>The biggest pitfall I found with the K8NS was that while the manual states
you have pretty good interrupt control, they actually removed it from the
bios. The latest BIOS which gives you proper interrupt control (unless they've
added it back - haven't checked for months) is version F6, which I use. It's
quite old but I haven't had any issues. The thing never crashes. It's maybe
crashed once or twice since I've had it, which is about 12 months now.
My motherboard seems to have a quirk in the BIOS and I'm currently running
on the backup BIOS on the board, but she runs fine like that. It forgets
HDD's on startup. Not sure why... (unless it's a quirk of the F6 firmware,
but that seems unlikely...)
Apart from that though it's great. I run only a two card system though, and
only dual head video (A Nvidia card currently) but have had no issues apart
from the BIOS losing hdd's on startup which appears to be a MB fault (should
take it back before my warranty runs out...).
It's quick though, and very stable. I'm happy with it. :o)

http://www.giga-byte.com/Products/Motherboard/Products_Overv iew.aspx?ProductID=1839
If you stick with BIOS rev F6 it has interrupt control in the BIOS for each
slot. It's close to as good as I've seen with interrupt control. It's not
perfect... I think slot 1 shares with 5 or something, but you can seperate
as much as you're likely to be able to on anything else.
....and it's really stable and really quick. :o)

If you like, and you need dual core support, I can load up the latest BIOS
and have a look see. I haven't tried F9 or F10 yet...

No Dual core.
Just a 3500+ which is cheap right now in OZ.
I don't really want a "screamer". Just sometyhing that will do the biz.
What version of Direct X are you using?
Is SP2 a no-go?
Did you have to disable anything in the bios?
These are the sort of issues I'm concenrned about.
So far I have a barebones XP service pack 1 install, which I am about to
image.
I'll look up the f6 bios.
Cheers,
Kim

I don't remember disabling anything, though I may have. I did go in and set
up the interrupts. I may have turned off things like the printer port. I'm
just having a look at F10 BIOS now and will report back in a moment (if the
computer boots ;o).
Not sure which DirectX I have... probably should know that... how do I
check?

Kim.

Start > Run > regedit > HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE > SYSTEM > CURRENTCONTROLSET
> CONTROL > FILESYSTEM Add a new DWORD value -
"NtfsDisableLastAccessUpdate" (without quotes) and set the value to 1.
Then reboot to make changes effective
Disable Notification Area Balloon Tips
Click Start , click Run , type regedit , and then press ENTER.
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\
CurrentVersion\Explorer\Advanced Right-click the right pane, create a
new DWORD value, and then name it EnableBalloonTips . Double-click this
new entry, and then give it a hexadecimal value of 0 . Quit Registry
Editor. Log off Windows, and then log back on.
----------------------------------------------
Disable CDROM Autoplay
One of the very important (and well documented) tweaks in Windows 98SE,
was to disable CDROM autoplay (auto insert notification). Disabling
CDROM autoplay no longer offers a significant performance benefit in
Windows XP, and therefore you do not need to disable it. Just don't
insert a CD during a crucial recording.
However, if you really want to disable it then here a few different methods.
Method 1
Start > Run > Regedit
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Services\Cdrom
Set autorun to 0.
Method 2
Open My Computer Right Click on each CDROM and choose Properties Click
on the Auto Play tab In the drop down box you can choose the Action for
each choice shown in the drop down box
Method 3
Go to Start->Run->gpedit.msc Computer Config -> Administrative Template
-> System Double click Turn off Autoplay Enable it.
----------------------------------------------
Disable Disc Indexing
Indexing Service is a service that extracts the information from a set
of documents and organizes it in a way that makes it quick and easy to
access that information through the Windows XP Search function, the
Indexing Service query form, or a Web browser.
This information can include text from within a document, (its
contents), and the characteristics and parameters of the document, (its
properties), such as the author's name. Once the index is created, you
can search, or query the index for documents that contain key words,
phrases, or properties.
-----------------------------------------
Additional tips Descriptions
-----------------------------------------
Partitioning. A useful tip when configuring your audio disc, is to
split this into two partitions. Set up a smaller "audio scratch"
partition - say 6GB of a 30GB hard disc. This partition will be used for
the songs that you are currently working on. The benefit of a smaller
partition is obviously quicker defragmentation. If you use the entire
30GB as one partition, then this will take ages to defragment. When you
are finished with a song, transfer the audio files to the non-scratch
partition, where disc I/O performance isn't so critical.
Messenger starts up at the windows load up but we can get rid of that in
no time at all..
Start Menu>Run
Type this in exactly as it is here:
RunDll32 advpack.dll,LaunchINFSection %windir%\INF\msmsgs.inf,BLC.Remove
Hit Enter...you will see a DOS-like shell appear and disappear very
quickly and then it will ask you to restart.
Right-click on your desktop, and then click Properties.
Click on Themes tab
Set Themes to Windows Classic
Also do this for the Start Menu:
Right-click the Start button, and then click Properties.
Click Classic Start menu.
Click the Customize button to select items to display on the Start menu.
By default, selecting the Classic Start menu also adds the My Documents,
My Computer, My Network Places, and Internet Explorer icons to your
desktop.
----------------------------------------
Increase your IRQ priority - You can increase the IRQ priority of the
real-time CMOS clock to gain some system performance by doing the following:
1.) First create a text file with the extension .reg
2.) Paste the following into the file:
REGEDIT4
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Control\Priorit yControl]
"IRQ8Priority"=dword:00000001
3.) Double-click on the file to enter the tweak into your registry.
This can be un-installed should you need to by repeating the three steps
above with a new file, except this time use the following in your .reg file:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Control\Priorit yControl]
"IRQ8Priority"=dword:00000000
----------------------------------------
Disable Power Management - Power management can be disabled by going
Start» Settings » Control Panel » Power Management. Set the Power Scheme
to "Always On" and set "System Standby", "Turn off hard disks" and "Turn
off monitor" to "Never".
Set graphic acceleration to full - You can do this by going to your
desktop, right clicking and clicking on "Properties" then on "Settings",
"Advanced" and the "Performance" tab. Make sure the Hardware
Acceleration slider is set to "full" to reduce the load on your CPU.
Disable background applications - Background applications start up when
your computer starts up and can use up unneccicary resources. To prevent
these from starting up go to Start » Run and type "msconfig" in the run
box. Click on the "startup tab" and disable (uncheck) programs such as
"taskmon", "load power profile", "real player", "office startup",
"winamp agent" and so on. Keep programs like "scan registry", "system
tray" and programs relating to interfacing with your audio card (such as
console software to control its features).
Disable USB - If you do not have any devices actively using USB in your
system (this includes dongles for your software), disable USB as it is
known to sometimes cause problems in certain DAW configurations. Not
only will this help to increase system performance, but it will also
free up an IRQ. Right click on your "My Computer" icon on your desktop
and select "Properties". Click on the "Device Manager" tab and scroll
down until you see the USB section. Click on the "Properties" for the
USB device and check off "Disable in this Hardware Profile". You will
have to reboot for these settings to take effect.
Graphical window settings - Go to Start » Settings » Folder options and
click on the "View" tab. Under "Visual settings" check off "Show window
contents while dragging. This is more of a usability tweak, as it will
allow you to see the contents of windows on the screen as you drag them
around (instead of them going blank).
Disable NTFS Last Access Time Logging (NTFS Only), Start > Run >
regedit > HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE > SYSTEM > CURRENTCONTROLSET > CONTROL >
FILESYSTEM Add a new DWORD value - "NtfsDisableLastAccessUpdate"
(without quotes) and set the value to 1. Then reboot to make changes
effective

It has a BIOS window you can go to which allows you to set manually which
interrupt each slot uses, and tells you what will be sharing with it if you
use that one. I have some things sharing, but everything is working fine
so I'm not concerned. Firewire shares with an EDS for example, but I never
use Paris and firewire together so that's not really a problem.
It doesn't say on mine that the AGP card is sharing with 1/5, unless that's
just assumed...? I know often 1 shares with AGP.

Kim.

I'm gonna flash my board to f10, and see how the paris install pans out.

I am now, though I had a mixup for a minute there and was using F6. I did
an update and somehow accidentally copied the old BIOS on top of the new.
But I'm pretty sure now that BOTH BIOS's are F10, and I still have interrupt
control, and in my hour of using it I've been stable... not much of a test
of course...
Cheers,
Kim.

I'll be over in melbourne in a few weeks to visit friends that
had the foresight to leave here some years ago!!
I'd love to buy you a drink (or three) for the effort you've put
into this forum.
Now... If I could just work out how to flash the K9NS without having to install
a damn floppy drive!!!!

-------------------------------
AMD Dual-Core Optimizer - The AMD Dual-Core Optimizer can help improve some
PC gaming video performance by compensating for those applications that bypass
the Windows API for timing by directly using the RDTSC (Read Time Stamp Counter)
instruction. Applications that rely on RDTSC do not benefit from the logic
in the operating system to properly account for the affect of power management
mechanisms on the rate at which a processor core's Time Stamp Counter (TSC)
is incremented. The AMD Dual-Core Optimizer helps to correct the resulting
video performance effects or other incorrect timing effects that these applications
may experience on dual-core or multiple processor systems.

I gotta get all four EDS cards in here!!
So far I've had to bend the firewire header pins south, and
remove the perforated chipset fan cover.
This is getting REALLY interesting.
I'm glad I have a thick skin at this point...courtesy of Coopers!!

It's a small town here with a local liberal arts college with lots of kids
from all over the place........very active music scene.
I don't know how successful I'll be, but I have met the program directors
for these stations and they all have had various *opportunity hours* for
local indy projects to get airplay. You guys aren's local, but I am and I
record some of the artists who these guys know, so I'll try to sneak
something in under the radar.

Glad you got them all in. Any room left in there for John's Emu card? ;o)
Not with two Quardo cards I guess...
Which slots did you use for what? Normally you'd use AGP and Slot 1 for graphics,
but given 1 shares with 5 and may not share with AGP perhaps it would be
better to have the EDS cards in 1 & 5 and the Quadro in another slot in between...?
Let us know how you go anyhow. I'm interested to know what she can take.
Might buy me another EDS card some day. :o)

Kim.

Kim...........if PCI 1 and 5 "do not" share with the AGP, this is
potentially a HUGE deal and this would be the most flexible (semi current)
mobo in existence today for 939 CPU's. I cannot find any reference to this
in the Gigabyte manual. When/if it is possible, could you insert a PCI card
in slot 1 or 5 (or both), then load the drivers for whatever that device is,
then go to your system info, look under system resources, navigate to
hardware resources>IRQ and let us know if the device(s) in PCI slots 1 or 5
is/are sharing an IRQ with the AGP? If not, I'm gonna be thinking hard about
switching mobo's on my Paris rig and trying to get that duallie CPU
happening with my Paris rig. Theis could conceivably allow 5 x EDS cards to
operate on a dual core Athlon. I would do this here, but I don't have all
the componentry that I need yet and the ergonomics of moving all of my EDS
cards to a Magma chassis (which is already being used by another DAW) is
something that would take my entire studio down for a couple of days, and
I'm pretty busy right now.

h a OEM version with the secure zones and
recovery CD/DVD s included. Its been the most reliable and cost
effective recover software we've ever used. It;s the only program that
I've sen that can make a reliable OS image while Booted into the OS.
Its works flawlessly over networks too which is great for us.

Kim,
I had no luck with Matrox 550 sharing with EDS. They must be
using different IRQs or the system is useless. I also couldn't
get an ati card to work at all in XP with Paris but that was two years
ago on an ASUS P4 mobo.

will be incorrect. Also, I'd more recommend adaptors that change polarity (I
used to have to do this as Peavey and Crest I think it was were both on the
+ pin 3 thing and I got to use both in varying live rigs back when I was
doing that gig) rather than splicing up your cables. Mark them as such, I
used something like POL RVRS iirc.... whatever works for you. I still have a
few XLR types around I use to mic the bottom of drums.

http://www.polesoft.com/refer.htmlI remember with my ATI card that XP (pre SP-1) wouldn't even load. There
was a trick I used to get around it which I don't now recall, but if you
just loaded the OS it wouldn't work even without EDS cards in the system.
Cheers,
Kim.

>Hi Aaron.....Thanks. I ordered the Hosa adapters yesterday. Seemed like a
much better way to go about this. The thought of jacking around with a bunch
of modified patch cables didn't really appeal to me. I found them for $8.99
each so it wasn't too painful. Now I've gotta go desolder the reversed cable
ends on 4 x patch cables and resolder them to standard.. (sigh)

>That's really a bummer. There's a Colorgraphics Xentera (4 x displays) on
EBay, but it uses the ATI chipset. I've scoped Brian T"s posts about his
super computers on the Menudo forum and he's not using the Xentera either.
It's a shame such a cool graphics card turned out to be such a bust for
audio.

Wolfgang Grajonca, aka Bill Graham, was a notorious obsessive. But
he loved what he did, and we are now all his beneficiaries because
one of his obsessions was that he kept everything from all his
shows. Everything.
It was all stashed in a warehouse; nobody even knew what was
there, and after Graham died in a helicopter crash in 1991 nobody
knew what to do with it, or didn't want to invest the time to find out
what was there. After passing thru several owners, businessman &
music fan Bill Sagan bought the whole 'mess' for about $1.5 million.
It was piled over 25 feet high in that warehouse. It took
TWENTY-FIVE tractor trailer rigs to carry it all to its new home
where Sagan began digging thru and cataloging what he'd bought.
He found:
Original Contracts signed by the artists
Mint condition super-rare posters; some worth $15k each today
Handbills
Unused tickets
Over a million slides, negatives and photographs.
Then one day while poking thru it Sagan found what he'd never even
dreamed of: Bill Graham had even saved the concerts themselves.
He'd made video & high res audio recordings of thousands of shows!
Sagan is not even sure, but it might be over 7,000 recordings in
number.
He is selling some of it thru the above website. He is also making
available "Vault Radio" where you can click on the link and listen
(free) to some of those recordings in a rotation that includes dozens
of those recordings.
Just click on "vault radio" Priceless....
DCSide note dude.... if you're using blackface adats they suffer from similar
problems. The digital I/O is phase correct, HOWEVER, alesis saw fit to put
the signal to tape out of phase and then re-invert on the return trip. Makes
things real interesting if you have a different adat type and start additional
dubs or punch ins to an unfinished product from another studio on the same
tape :P

The wavelab I have allows effects on the master.

>(859) 635-5762I'm surprised your 880 has a fan in it....mine does not.
Analog I/O on this thing sounds very good IMO...better than you might expect
considering the age of it.
Another solution is to make (6) (R880 has 2 ins and 4 outs IIRC) 1 foot lengths
of XLR-XLR cables with the polarity swapped. Connect these to your 880, and
then, connect your snake to them. This would make your 880 appear to be pin
2 hot to your patch bay.
