recording from vinyl

Apologies for cross posting, but I've been away from email for a few days and this question came up on both lists. I've been very happy using Wave Repair, a shareware editor for Microsoft platforms, for cleaning up vinyl recordings. Like many others who've responded, I use CoolEdit for noise reduction, normalization and recording, but have found Wave Repair very good for detecting and sometimes even removing clicks and pops (although never to the point where I don't check each one). I paid the shareware fee a few years ago and have gotten regular updates ever since. I wish I could find something like this for OS X. http://www.waverepair.com. --- Caleb Deupree ctdeupree(a)sbcglobal.net

Anyone heard anything by Stepan Rak, classical guitarist who has kinda developed his own technique. I've only heard a couple of his pieces, but they were pretty incredible. Also Trey Spruance, Greg Ginn, Marc Ribot, I could go on. Tom Morello was a favourite in high school, but I haven't really heard much Audioslave.

Just finished Michel Houelbueq: "Atomised" ("Elementary particles"). I found it fascinating, but it seems that his books are either loved or hated. Anyone has any thoughts on it? Just started "Magic Hoffman" by Jakob Arjouni. Other interesting recent reads: "The Dogs of Riga" by Henning Mankell. Pretty interesting detective story taking place half in a small city in Sweden and half in Riga, depicting the grim social situation, while trying to solve a mystery. J.C. Izzo: "Solea", great great detective set in Marseille. Fabulous characters, great descriptions of the city atmosphere. Michel Houelbueq: "Platform", I liked that one very much as well. manolis

He said something like if she wants him to accept her with an open mind she had better welcome him with open legs. When Terry spoke in Syracuse last year she played a clip from the interview and it got big laughs. Tom

I'm sure he's been mentioned already, but with all hands down - Robert Quine. I just recently subbed to this list, have been lurking for a while, and really enjoy the posts! -e >From: Chris Selvig <selvig(a)earthlink.net> >To: zorn-list(a)mailman.xmission.com >Subject: Guitarists >Date: Thu, 31 Jul 2003 16:41:09 -0700 > >D Boon >Greg Ginn >Ted Falconi >Thor Eisentrager >Tom Hazelmeyer >Keiji Haino >Eddie Hazel >Grant Green >Makoto Kawabata >Jukebox >Seth Josel >Alan Licht >Keith Rowe >Poison Ivy Rorschach >Ethan Miller >Brad Johnson >Rowland S Howard >Bo Diddley >Link Wray >Ron Asheton >Thurston Moore >Lee Ranaldo >Marc Riley >Freddie Stone >Phelps Collins >Tetuzi Akiyama >Bruce Russell >Tom Herman > > >Chris Selvig > > >_______________________________________________ >zorn-list mailing list >zorn-list(a)mailman.xmission.com >To UNSUBSCRIBE or Change Your Subscription Options, go to the webpage below >http://mailman.xmission.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/zorn-list _________________________________________________________________ MSN Search, le moteur de recherche qui pense comme vous ! http://fr.ca.search.msn.com/
