just curious what people used to backup there jb3 (other than there cumputer.. i was curious if dat is worthwhile or just put masters ont he hardrive.. peace
-
I leave the files on my jb3 until i've finished tracking and all other post stuff that was needed. Flac or Shn the finished product, burn a copy of the compressed files, and burn an the wav's for stereo listening. Then I'll can the files on the jb3...

I transfer to PC for editing and buring. Then burn the "master" and the 44.1 tracking to DVD-R (along with the photo's I always take too, if there's room). DVD-R goes in the phile cabinet.

[1] copy from JB3 to PC to edit and burn audio discs until I...
[2] archive to FLAC CD / DVD after which I...
[3] upload to archive.org / bluegrassbox.com or distribute "publicly"
So, in the end, I have 3 copies available to me:
[a] WAV CDs for playback
FLAC copy as backup
[c] off-site archive at online storage sites or within the taping/trading community

i do exactly what skalinder does, except, if i record in 48k, which i always do, then i FLAC the 48k copy too, so i have
1. 48k FLAC copy
2. 44.1k tracked FLAC copy
3. WAV copy to listen to

i usually downsample the 48k file to 44.1k and do the editing/splitting. then i distribute that. i also keep the cue sheet from cdwav. After i'm done distributing, if its a good show i burn myself and my friends copies. after that i usually delete the 44.1k files and just burn the 48k file, the info txt, and the .cue sheet and burn them all to dvd-r. i have a computer at my listening station so i can just play the 48k files off the dvd-r.
