ISO DAT Transfers
« on: August 29, 2018, 02:30:06 AM »
During the late 90s I was a taper/trader in the Southeast. I did all the taper friendly bands that came through and then some. I had a Nak100 setup for awhile and then AKG 481s. I also did some stealth stuff. I was often the sole taper at shows in middle tennessee. I don't have the time nor equipment to put these DATS on a HD. Is there anybody who can help? I'd have to count but I've got 100s of hours of music.

Any suggestions welcome.

Most larger cities have vendors which transfer DAT tapes to wave.  The price varies but will run about $50-100 plus the hard drive.  Pay attention to the gear the vendor uses, I have Sony 7040 which was in its day, the finest DAT machine made, costing $10,000.  The vendor will also need a reciprocal machine either recording directly to the hard drive, which I do not like (some errant anomalies) or to a dedicated digital in recorder like a Tascam D680 and the reciprocal machine set to the digital output of the DAT, i.e., 16 or 48.  In my case, I needed an adapter to go from the DAT to SPDIF.  The DAT has to be fast forwarded a couple times to loosen it up.  The transfer is obviously made in real time, so a two hour show takes two hours to transfer.  DATs have their own anomalies so the completed tape has to be spot reviewed by ear and reviewed in a wave editor to spot those sonic anomalies.

Have any Phish or related material in there???  How about Pavement/Malkmus, King Crimson, or Morphine???

I just got a DA30 MKII in good shape, let me know if you get a list together.

I have a bunch of DATs from the 90's including some early Keller Williams shows where I know I was the only taper. I'm interested in learning how to transfer the DATs to a computer (I still own two working DAT machines), but would also be open to having someone else do the transfers.

I'm a brand new member to this Forum and it appears I'm not able to send PMs yet. I would be extremely grateful if someone could PM me to discuss further. Many thanks.

Your PMs should be good to go, now.
