  1. Again, without knowing what was wrong with your previous system, just telling us it is better tells us it's better than broken, and that's not telling us much. Most of our systems aren't broken. USB is fine for transferring data -- think about a program, or an encrypted archive: it needs to be a perfect digital replica of itself after being transferred. If one bit is off -- one bit! -- it is considered corrupt. So the only thing left is timing. Jitter. Jitter just isn't that audible, not as night and day as you are describing. It's subtle, as Sechtdamon says. Not unless something was really really wrong, and you should have been able to hear a difference just by trying a third system. Look, I'm happy for you that it's so much better than your old system, but most of us wouldn't have put up with that shit.
  2. All India Radio/Don Meers, Eyes Ahead EP
  3. Wait, what? (wanders off...returns) Unholy carp, I didn't even notice.
  4. You may well be one of the world's elite few cat herders. We have a colloquialism in American, "...like herding cats", used to describe an impossible task.
  5. Do you really think with language like that, that you should be the standard bearer for such an interface if it's that much better? I mean, even if it is better, you still sound like a snake oil salesman. You people with your "my statistical sample of 1 is adequate" -- no it's not! Not ever! Sure, maybe it's good enough for you to buy-in, but it's not good enough to tell other people to buy-in, just based on your word, what if your previous system was so crappy that AOIP couldn't help but be better? My first question in such a thing is, "if it's so great, why don't the pros use it?" So I looked. Seems to be just starting out and used almost exclusively for broadcast. Long runs. The standard for studio still seems to be AES3. Sometimes they'll add an extra clock. I'll wait until it matures somewhat.
  6. Huzz-fucking-zah!
  7. ^ What he said. No worries!
  8. You didn't read his new subtitle.
  9. You say, "a little cunty"...I say, "this is news?". Someone change my personalized subtitle to "a little cunty", I can't figure it out. That said, still want.
  10. It looks a little...accidental.
  11. I'm still waiting for him to forget his kids somewhere. "Oh, they're fine...Melisha'sh with 'em."
  12. That's a thing of beauty , Craig .
  13. Posted with the comment, "it is good to be dog":
  14. Shatner. He's a better singer than Shatner. (pictures Shirley, Duke, Butch and Steve hurtling across the stage behind Neil Young) Nope, no idea.
  15. Watch the video, she espouses a convincing argument for seasoning the entire pan, not just the cooking area. I'd be curious if anyone else would be convinced. I'm also curious if it's a bad idea to coat the pan with oil -- which is flammable, neh? -- on the flame side at all, since she never addresses the issue.
  16. Hrm...I prefer the HD600 to the HD650 by a small margin...but I need fewer headphones not more...fewer headphones not more...fewer headphones not more...
  17. I think you're confusing the L3000 with a hangover you may have once had. At a friend's. With a dog. Who was male.* And not castrated.** And yes, I know; I'll let you tell more if you want. *The dog, not the friend. **The dog, not the friend.
  18. The weird scuffling blue robot was someone in a tachikoma/logicoma cosplay costume, on their hands and feet, which, if you watch it in reverse and change the costume to something far darker, glossier, and dripping with K-Y jelly, is how they tried to do the alien special effects, if you've seen the outtakes. It ended up looking like someone walking on their hands and feet, which is why they ended up not going with it. I thought the cosplay a bit better. Compare:
  19. Not as often , I don't feel comfortable bringing them to work .
  20. Yeah , exactly, I still have the L3000, don't intend to let that go.
  21. Apparently no one else would neither, eBay has zero history of them ever being sold. I need to sell mine , I never listen to them. But yes , as of yet , I still have them.
  22. Eep, that would be bad. Did you season them at all?
