AUDIO INFO / PREFERENCES
(PLEASE read carefully,
as I will only trade under
these circumstances due to past experiences) L
Y
These audio's are for TRADE
ONLY
Y
on MD and CDR (consumer
music or PC music discs) audio formats and I would prefer them
recorded optically when possible. PLEASE NOTE THAT CDRS / MDs SHOULD NOT BE RECORDED
TOO HIGH WHEN RECORDED ANALOG, AS THIS LEADS TO DISTORTION ‘PIPS’ or
'BURNS' in the recording, ALWAYS AIM FOR MIDDLE VOLUME (-10/-06 dB) TO
AVOID PEAKING INTO THE RED! Digital recorders do not have a buffer zone
like tape machines where you can go into the RED and distortion's not
always audible. With digital, it will just clip the RED and a 'click' will
be heard.
Y
I prefer not to be sent
tapes unless absolutely unavoidable.
Y
I do not accept blank trades (for cost of postage and blank
cdrs sent to me etc...) except with long established
friends.
Y
I will only send out after I have
received (with new traders) to safe guard against being ripped
off.
Y
Please do not write on the disc.
Y
If all the above are taken into
account and would like to trade, then please download list and email!.
Thank You
QUALITY
My Mini Disc deck can also be used to correct the speed (PITCH) so
that when an old tape has altered speed (be it too slow or fast but is
good quality otherwise) I can correct this and if you have any that
recordings that I don;t have and that need speed correction, just let me
know! The recordings I have done this to are indicated by 'speed
corrected'.
Y
Some recordings benefit from digital EQ and if a
recording has 'improved' / EQ-ed next to it, this is why, although I
keep EQ-ing to a minimum and only for very hissy / rare
recorings.

RARE
TRADES / NO TRADES
If an item has rare
trades only besides it, I will only trade for a similar item or of similar
rarity, these will not be traded otherwise. No trade items are simply that
except for extreme rare things or if I have permission from source to
trade it for a particular item. Items marked as VB REF: are NOT available
and are marked purely for my reference and appear on my private rarity
list. Please do not ask for this as refusal may cause offence...sorry
