*****
Branches please send my your EAC offsets, or tell me what you use
for
burning/extracting software. Adaptec/Roxio users may find
themselves
assigned spots as leaves. Sorry about that, but there may be a
lot of
copies made and I'd like them to be as error-free as I send them
out.
If you don't extract with EAC, you should. It's free here:
www.exactaudiocopy.de
You'll find this page
http://www.ping.be/satcp/tutorials.htm
very interesting, if you're interested turning out exact copies
with your
EAC. There's a fascinating article about offsets in
general, and how
to set the offset for your particular burner...

Quoted extracts from Steve P's (the seed) post a week or ten days
ago:
"If the Silver Rarities version was good, this set is
GREAT! . . . There
seems to be a cut in the tape right after Over The Hills And Far
Away,
right after Robert says "I'm starting to cook!".
There's also some kind of
channel flutter or something during No Quarter that lasts a few
minutes and
disappears. It does not distract from the song, but it's
noticeable in my
headphones. . . The sound is fantastic with only a few
exceptions. The cut
in Ten Years Gone is plugged with an alternate version of the
show. The
splice to and from the alternate tape are very well done, but the
alternate
tape sounds like it
was recorded in a metal garbage can or something. Thank God it
only lasts
18 seconds before switching back to the original Millard
tape. The first
time you hear the switchover to the alternate tape - be
prepared! I had
headphones on (cranked up quite loud I might add) and almost fell
out of
the chair! I'm going to guess that Empress Valley used the
Ten Years Gone
tape that was included on TDOLZ's Time Traveller set from June
22nd. The
TYG found on that set was really from the 21st, but of a lesser
quality
recording than the familiar Millard "Eddie" tape. . .
It's quite possibly
the best audience recording I've ever heard. . .
