[#261] Will U toe-in differently for different CD    

The digital recorder is the TASCAM DR-07 II, just a cheap model I used with my digital SLR which only has mono recording. It's quite handy as it has MP3 or WAV (BWF) file format at up to 96kHz/24-bit resolution.

The white gadget is called iKEY Analog to Digital Real Time Converter which I have been using for nearly 8 years now. It's a basic tool to transfer my vinyl into digital files. Cheap but quite good result.

This is a recording of a Denon DL-102 Mono MC Cartridge with the Trichord fed to MM High setting with 1k ohm load. Unfortunately I didn't realise the peak could reach overload and causing some distortion at parts.

The last video shows pictures of my time in Spain back in the 80's.

This one shows pictures of Norwich.

For NMC.

I notice that you were talking "Albert King with Stevie Ray Vaughan in session".

Well, how about alternative session by Bloomfield & Kooper playing Albert King?

Bloomfield & Kooper playing Albert King is great indeed. What is that Sony gadget by the way!!! Full of surprises ...

zbigniew821 Hing,

Jazz recording are usually presented "in the face" in order to get the recording audience excited. Close miking is the way. BUT....if better engineers wants better control of the sound, then Main Mic array may be placed further away say15-20 ft from the musicians so the in the face effect can be controlled in the way which the producer wants the sound to be. Some better engineers may also place outrigger mics around the room for special reasons which I will not discuss here. Remember, the producers dictate what sound is to be put on record. Consumers and engineers have no say. Consumer are always get brainwashed by the way music should be sound. This may lack creativity. The producer probably want compression added on each mic track to give specific effect in mind to how the music should be presented, whether the effect is close to the real sound is another issue. Compression especially drums are always applied. Jazz room / club is usually a small environment and therefore loud drums sound make the recording sounded far too saturated, so drum compression / gate are added using great skill. What the consumer do not know what were put into the recording won't hurt. The end users/listeners probably do not know what they should be listening to.

Happy listening...

Touching this one purely some were mentioning her album in another thread.

I came to know her quite late(around 1995?) when I heard this song from a BBC Radio Chinese programme. It gave me a lot of thinking back then. I probably had heard the title song in the 80's and I thought it was different from most Canton-pop. Then years gone by and after hearing this song I thought I need to get the LP one day purely for just one song. People say why don't you get a CD? To be honest with you getting a CD or LP in England is nearly impossible so the only chance would be getting one while holiday in Hong Kong. I must admit this is possibility the first Canton-pop I have ever bought. Mainly I play this song and I enjoy very much.

The last thing I knew from Prudence was that she won an acting award or some sort for her acting. Nice.

We are going into further nostalgia. I had this vinyl - not exactly, that's my brothers'. One day I may buy it from the web.

Nice to hear from you again :) I certainly learnt from you how the engineers manipulated the recording, even for Jazz music. Reading the wave form of different CD versions and vinyl rips is like entering a chaos of WTF they're doing? The jazz bar I mentioned, yes, led one to ask wtf he is doing? I did like to visit live Jazz bar in the old days. Most use amplifiers anyway. But the live feel is still there. If we're talking about non-live bar that only plays Jazz music, that's another matter. Many are just using speakers in the ceiling here and there. The Japan one I visited isn't like that. He's obviously using his room and speaker placement to create a 'glorifying' non-realistic effects, like it or not. Creative? Yes. Likable? It really depends on one's taste.

Perhaps I should give a decent funerals to the thread as most discussion and sharing in forums now tend to be about changing and matching gears ... the insistence on the speaker positioning, a gift from you, is few and far between. NMC can't come back though I know you may be here. Good night.

....... further nostalgia.......why not further more?

"辣椒排骨飯,加多一個蛋......."

Not sure if it was your ear but it was everywhere back then......

Hot short and hot legs with long boots....just too much!!!!!

I suppose ending this thread with this song could make some impact on memory.

(Apology...as just found out this TOTP was hosted by Jimmy Saville, the evil paedo)

That's a FXXXXXXX great song!!!

I wonder if you heard of the korean waves such as Girls Generation? I always wonder it's the asian version of something in the 1970s. Girls more pretty and young but the messages seem to be similar. So, Asia is still 40 years lagging behind as far as pop feminism is concerned?





Are we closing the thread or turning it to something else?? haha

Pop Girl Groups have been around as long as music itself. Obviously in the older days they were just singers plus a little bit of performers if you must. I am sure this type still by large a part of the music scene.

As for "pop feminism is concerned" and if mean young girls with pretty faces, good figure and can perform dancing there were many from the past as I remember eg. the Nolan Sisters, Spice Girls, Destiny's Child, Girls Aloud etc, etc....

However, not sure if I have put it right that one of the earliest "pop feminism" arguably could be the BBC Top of the Pops Dance Troupes(Go-Jos, Legs & Co., Pan's People, Ruby Flipper, Zoo (dance troupe)).




Legs & Co.


Pan's People
