Not sure if the trigger has been pulled, but this may be a simpler solution...

one less piece of software to deal with, just play music on phone or tablet, and connect to Audio via Bluetooth

Cat Power
The Earl
Atlanta, Georgia (USA)
December 16, 2003

Source: Audience recording > unknown binaural cardoid microphones > unknown battery pack (with minimal bass roll-off) > Sharp minidisc recorder > ? > WAV > Cool Edit Pro > FLAC. Recorded by Brandon. Did some volume adjustment and edited out some bits.

CD 1:
01. (intro)
02. I Want To Be The Boy, take 1
03. (unknown tune, take 1)
04. (unknown tune, take 2)
05. I Want To Be The Boy, take 2

14. (unknown White Stripes tune)
15. Moonshiner

Total time = 34:30

Personnel:
Chan Marshall - vocals & guitar

Notes from the taper: "Lots of local bands came out in support of Atlanta scene player 315, playing all evening and late into the night. By the time Chan came out, more than half the crowd had left, and by the time she was finished most of the rest had left. She started and stopped, tried to get a singalong going on a White Stripes cover, and talked quietly to people at the front of the audience. It was kind of a disaster. I've edited out long bits between songs, and towards the end of the show you'll see I kept more crazy bits of stage banter than actual music. Don't think I've ever shared this complete recording, but now that Chan's in better shape I guess we can look back and laugh, eh? 315 (that is the guy's name) followed Chan, playing bent Christmas carols on solo electric guitar at his own fundraising concert. Sadly he died a few months later. One of the more memorable shows out of the hundreds I've seen at the Earl."

Lou's Note: The first time they played as Emmylou Harris & The Hot Band was 1975-04-03, the first night of a 3 night run at the Boarding House.

Sounds like this show was done between releasing her debut "Pieces OF The Sky" and her 2nd album "Elite Hotel", both released in 1975. She signed with the label in October 1974, so they were quick albums. The show is from the Friday of Thanksgiving weekend of 1975.

Bipolar System Disorders / Re: Gary Dodd battery powered system utube video by Danny Ritchie

« Last post by S Clark on April 09, 2024, 02:33:01 PM »

I've used Dodd preamps for years. I also had a variation of that Dac that Danny uses, but I let it go to Ron Vedder- I couldn't keep it from dropping connection. I also had a Dodd phono preamp-- a very nice piece, but i had to admit I liked a much cheaper Jolida better. So it also went to Ron.
The preamps? I'm sure there's something better, but I haven't heard it.
The other battery powered gear that I use is our own Folsom's tda7297 chip amp. I've got a couple of Dodd amps that are excellent, but Jeremy's amp is right there with them for speakers that don't need power.
