Audacity indeed does audio ripping from the souncard, and works fine but quality is degraded :).

Are you sure? I don’t think it is, but I might be wrong.

Another disadvantage: you may not touch the pc during recording, all your MSN sounds and other jingles also get recorded :).

Heheh, yeah, I can vouch for that. :D Luckily I have pretty much all the sounds deactivated on my pc anyway.

Talking ‘bout the quality degrading thing?
Yes, pretty sure. It is saved digitally on their server, then sent digitally over IP and then converted back to analog signals on the PC. If you find a way to save to digital datastream you have found the best method conerning quality. You just can’t do better than what the source provides and that is the digital datastream. Every conversion you allow in between is inevitably a source of quality loss. If you rip the soundcard signals, you allow extra noise to be added during digital to analog conversion (the soundcard uses analog signals so the digital datastream has to be converted to analog signals). Moreover, after, actually during the rip you again need to digitize the audio: analog to digital conversion needs to be done, which always gives rise to again an extra source of noise.

WM Recorder was able to rip the digital stream from the server, provided the stream was delivered to Windows Media Player for the first digital to analog conversion (I think).

But then again, the soundcard rip ain’t that bad at all of course :).

I just went cross eyed after reading that!

He did ask whether I was sure… ;)

I wasn’t a fan of this gig but if I had been there live then I’m sure I would have loved it cause i would have been drunk:p
I have to say though that I’m beginning to think I’m not a Neil Cooper fan.His playing on the first two older songs(that’s as far as I got)and his choice of beats and colors did not suit the stuff.I also liked them as a four piece as well but I support the boys cause they are a cool band and they do rock.Bring on OCFA!

I wonder why they went with Cooper because they said at the time, they hired Graham because he wasn’t a Stars in their Eyes Fyfe Clone - which is what they didn’t want.

Maybe cause he’s a good friend and an excellent drummer? :D

Do you think Neil is just a Fyfe clone, then?

Neil is no clone of Fyfe!!!

Neil is a better drummer, but Fyfe was singer on Teethgrinder :(

I prefer Fyfe singing teethgrinder. I think Fyfe has a better singing voice than Andy…

*Waits on replies telling me how wrong I am*

Neil is my fav t? drummer by far :cool:

Nah he works in Lidls actually ;)

I loved Fyfe’s drumming, I love Neil’s drumming. Fyfe belongs to T?’s past, Neil is their future!
Go Neil! He’s an amazing drummer, and a friendly dude!

I also liked Fyfe’s singing on Teethgrinder … just because to drums seems so complicated and he’s singing on top of it as if it’s nothing.

Anyone seen Neil changing a drumstick during teethgrinder? I don’t know if it’s visible on the fabchannel and maybe it’s just me, I’m not a drummer, but it looks like an impossible thing to do… he does it without frowning … if it’s not on fabchannel I could maybe rip that piece of my boyfriends video… if I figure out how… :rolleyes:

:o Actually playing with one hand for a few seconds is easy.

Or is it that porno shop :rolleyes:

If anyone knows where Fyfe actually works, please tell me!
