I was getting the shakes waiting for Tascam to come back up- So I thought I would dip my toe in here and test the water. You guys have some interesting theories on why tascam is down---

Hope to make some friends here- I never knew this site was here of I would have come sooner-

Betty
 
Welcome...
I have no clue about tascam...
But, I assume you are Missy?
I checked out your music and like it alot.
It makes me want to go hurt something, but I like it nonetheless.;)
I'm not a member of soundclick, so I didn't download anything, but the streaming sound was kind of noisy... It makes my monitors sound like they're blown. Is that the way it actually sounds or is it just a crappy stream?

You should consider signing up with nowhere radio and posting some of your stuff in the MP3 forum. I know there are quite a few of the "harder" members here that would dig it, and there are plenty of people here with expert ears and good advice on recording if your interested...
 
SUb---
Thank you!!! Yes I am Missy. I look foward to being here.


Our sound has alot of fuzziness and distortion-- even so it sounds better on our cd's. I will check out nowhere redords!
I am always very thankful and interested in the knowlege ( I am a rotten speller) of good people!!
 
Howdy, y'all! Anyway, who's Missy, & what'd I miss? Ha.

Welcome to the bored,... uh,... I mean board, Missy!... or betty,... or ms. rumble,... ! Lots of talking heads from the Tascambbs have come over here,... [for better or worse!] HA!

You'll feel right at home here, and btw, what type of Tascam are you using?

Tascam rules for home recording, but their bbs is sucking wind. Consider it dead, until further notice.

Anyway, all the action's here!

Welcome aboard!:cool:
 
thank you guys-- I feel the love--- Call me Betty, everyone does.
we have the 788. She is our baby-- Yep-- I think I am gonna like it here.
 
Well, that's one damn fine machine, all silver & shiny,...

and a REAL PORTASTUDIO that is,... yep! A fine one!;)
 
Hello Betty. It is rough for Tascam lovers here, Very few posts in the Tascam forum, not much more in the analog forum. If you dare enter the Dragon's Cave, they will cut your throat. Perhaps, you being a female, will fare better in that testosterone laden lair.
 
Correction: Go into the Dragon Cave at your own risk,...

but I guarantee you that it's not as threatening a place as DV would try to make you think.

No one will cut your throat, take your head off & hand it to you, or any other such thing,... unless you stand up and say something really stupid, enough to make yourself a worthy target, [ref: DV]. Then, watch out!

Otherwise, HRcom is a great place, and even the Dragon Cave is a fun and entertaining place to surf. However, the Cave is an 'other-non-recording-content adult forum', and is not for the weak of heart. A lot of what you'll find there is personal, anecdotal topics, and your regular mishmash of religion and politics,... both topics which I try to stay away from, for the most part. However, if I find a particularly salient or outrageous religio-political post, I may occasionally drop my own opinion in on the topic. It depends on the day, of course.;)

betty, you seem like the strong, non-wilting type, so the Dragon Cave's probably just your speed!;)

I have no wish to fight with you. Please stop taking pot shots at me. If you will examine my posts here and at Tascambbs you will see that I never targeted anyone in particular. I did go after those who were barely literate. I only started flaming you when you went after me for what you percieved to be irrelevant posts. The fact that you also went after Larry Robinson made me think you were just a vain pain in the ass. Perhaps I was wrong. Let's try to make peace here in the Middle East.
 
Call a spade a spade, man.

I could make all the room in the world for vapid, senseless posts, over at Tascambbs, where the ground rules were [para], 'no self promotion, no spam, watch your language, it's a family forum', etc.

You were a pain in the ass over at Tascambbs, Derek, and I tolerated you with the utmost deference to bbs etiquette and Tascam, but when you showed up here being TWICE the pain in the ass as before, dude, the gloves were off!

-Without absolutely going off again, let me say,-... nicely,...

Your superior & condescending attitude is very apparent, and yes, it annoys people, starting with me. That type of attitude grates on my nerves, quite a bit.

Your off-the-wall references do not fly with me, but you're obviously very satisfied with yourself, and your ability to be off the wall.

Everyone enjoys the funny quip, one liner, and occasional bombastic statement, but you seem to be constantly trivial, you're not funny, and you sideline almost any thread you touch,... f/i, this one.

I have no vested interest in flaming-the-hell-out-of-you for the rest of bbs eternity, but if you keep calling attention to yourself by repeatedly referencing my name, for one reason or another, then of course I'm gonna flame you. That annoys me a great deal, that you'd mention me by name, repeatedly, in an unflattering manner.

Trust me, people know me around here, and it's not like me at all to go beserk when someone just mentions my name,... f/i,... Reel mentioned this-,... Reel -this-,... Reel -that-,... oh, way-to-go Reel,.... Reel likes Yoko, oh haha, yuk-yuk Reel. You name it, I just don't get in contention with people for the random mentioning of my name. But you seem to have a snotty, condescending way of looping my name into your own posts, that aggrivates me very much. Stop doing this, and I'll stop reacting.

I fault Larry Robinson for being a trivial know-it-all, more than once in a while, and you heard it here, first. LR is excellent within the scope of his knowledge, no doubt he's near-genius, and a professor of kinetic energy at [university], BUT, when he responds to each & every technical Tascam question with his usual rap,... hold on to your seats folks,... he's often out of his league, technically speaking. He's often wrong in the troubleshooting tips and fixes he gives, because he's simply out of his league, and he's also the one loaded with the most trivial posts ever! [HINT: That's why Derek loves him so much, and got along with him so well.]

That's no a huge crime, but face it, being trivial and giving out bogus info on a techical board is often irritating,... or at least I find it so. Being wrong I give a pass, although I think he should stick to what he knows best: the 246, and leave the rest of the field alone.

It's being trivial, off the wall, and quite the self-centered individual when it comes to moderation and deleting posts that irritates me most, about LR. I've seen him occasionally delete my technical posts because it showed his own post to be in error, or worse, so that he could co-opt and steal my point and make it look like his own, so why shouldn't I be irritated?

Derek, if I were to meet you, and we'd share a pint of beer at a pub, I'd probably come away thinking your a very decent and intelligent guy, probably someone who could teach me a few things. But since we only meet on the web, and all I have to judge you by is your posts, I find you annoying, condescending, trivial, contrite, and a very self-satisfied pain in the ass.

I really don't want to flame you, ongoingly into eternity, but you insult me directly, either with those sideways derogatory remarks, or straight up in my face. As long as you continue to do so, I will continue coming back and ramming your words down your throat,... or worse.

Derek, wait: stop: look in the mirror: You're an annoying pest.

Please make your posts topical, and not trivial, off the wall, or directly insulting me or my intelligence, and I think we'll get along great, TBD.

Derek, quit ruining every thread you step into please.

You have no wish to fight with Reel? What about your thread calling him out?

I see many people here are turning on you. Why is that? I am a fucking asshole supreme a good deal of the time, but they don't rail on me like they're railing on you...

Take that to heart, sit back and think about it, and ease up on the "Reply" button until you can get a grip instead of a gripe.:cool:
 
Reel et al

If that us the way you feel-- I can live with it. I tried my best to make peace but if you insist that your need to terror bomb some really good sites with fanaticism , then all I can do is put up with it or go away. I am not about to go away because I welcome the occasional tidbit of knowledge that sometimes finds its way to these forums.
 
To think that you could ever compete with Larry Robinson or even me for that matter is the height of arrogance. Merely because you spent thousands of dollars buying up antique equipment does not make you an expert -- it only makes you a fanatic.
 
Gosh Derek, I really don't want to keep fighting with you,...

but you are a tenacious jerk!

I never said I competed with Larry Robinson, but when you made mention of it, I thought I'd set you straight on the issue. Besides, who made you the keeper of the flame for Larry Robinson? This is not about him!

It's about you, and your nearly psychotic need to try to boost up your own ego by attempting to tear someone else down, while trying to pose as an intellectual, [which I assure you, you are not].

Contrary to what you may think, that person you think you'll tear down is not me, and IMO, you're just Larry Robinson's lapdog, who's incessantly yapping and nipping at my heels. Suckass is what you are.

Yeah, and what's it to'ya? You obviously don't care how much of an asshole people already think you are. You just won't get off your high horse, will you?

I am not an expert, but you're wrong. Buying thousands of dollars of so-called obsolete equipment does add to my expertise and lends substance and credibility to my experience, something that you so severely lack.

I'm hardly the terror bomb you try to make me out to be, but you're surely the dumbshit-troll-bomb.:eek:

Peace with me, is not provoking me every five minutes! Get it?

Do you think you can do that?:confused:
 
(Climbing into fire retardant suit).


Erm. Contrite means sorrowing, apologetic or penitent.
