Sounds like experience talking...?

Ah, but there's the rub. No-one can build a cheaper one than this Drobo -- a free one.

No, I don't mean concerts, I actually do mean recording stuff "in the field" -- I heard a really cool sound last night, and I didn't think of my iPhone (duh!), but even if I did, I want to get serious about this. I want to have access to a quality portable digital recorder at all times (I.E. if not actually with me, then with me as much as my iPod is). So, I realize this is not the best place to ask, so the question is mostly -- where should I go to ask this? Harmony Central? Any place else? I can't remember the music makers and producers forum that I used to frequent -- gear-freaks or something like that? Here are my choices so far, that I can figure: Tascam DR-1 or DR-07 Alesis ProTrack (requires iPod) Zoom H4 Edirol R-09 Olympus LS-10 Any others I should be looking at? Would like Hi-Res (either DSD or high bit-rate PCM).

Going at a rate of about 5 comments/second, it's up to 13,050+ at last look.

You could do worse.

Never?

Wait...what?

Whut? I thought it was analog.

So I'm seeing this, and I'm thinking to myself -- you know, I've been meaning to (ahem) laserdrop my laserdisks. Talk me down? Talk me up (I.E. should I go all the way to 1080p)? Do whut now? This coming from someone who has immediately fallen in love with blu-ray -- I may not know shit about this stuff, but I know what I like.

Pretty nice friggin' phones for a baby!

Holy shit, episode 6.

Red Hot Chili Peppers, "Snow (Hey Yo)" -- aka the end titles to Deathnote: The Last Name -- actually, I think I'm listening to a medley of that track and another track, because the latter half sounds just like what you'd expect of movie end titles music, and nothing like anything RHCP have ever done. I need to get the soundtrack to this, because I really like this combination.

I do believe he was being snarky. Don't worry, Fungi, I got it.

I threw up a little.

Is that your serial number? (jots it down)

Aren't groove tubes just rebranded something else?

ADAT Lightpipe -- it is certainly capable of transferring quite a bit (8 channels of 24/48 ). But as has been mentioned, the spec itself does not support it.

It looks like it says, "rar on pants" to me.

I like the feet on the balancing act, and the rivets on the Moth s2a3.[/snarky]

I'm not the Monkey, but having heard both under similar circumstances (at a meet, being driven by a BHSE), I'd have to say -- yes, exactly. Very good analogy.

Actually, your 37" monitor isn't that much more overwhelming than my 30" one.

I just use a drop-in infuser in a mug, especially when I'm trying a variety of different teas -- I don't want more than one cup in those cases. I use the SwissGold one, the 200, not the 300. And an electric kettle to boil the water. And if more than one cup, then a larger infuser and a teapot. I tried the ingenuiTea from Adagio Teas (which is a similar item to the above), but I didn't like the way the lid wouldn't come off to throw it in the dishwasher (supposedly it does, but I couldn't figure it out without worrying about breaking it).

In glorious Russia, Lada disses itself.

WTF?

I hope they're built better than their cars.
