I think some of the Brooklyn bars forgot to close on time... at 5:30am I saw a couple of drunkards cackling wildly as one of them was trying to remain in control of the 25-cent automated pony ride outside of a corner deli! |

Yeah. Had to order CDs so I can burn some of what I found. | |

Skirkie:
I got a portable hard drive 'cause of that place. | |
|
Mon. 3/12/12 9:56am
T-Zero:
@Skirkie: I was considering that, for saving things I don't want to burn but would like to keep. For now, they're just bookmarked. | |

Or is there an official WFMU procedure to Burn materia to a CD? (Maybe it would include an automatic donatation going to WFMU? (poorly worded, but you get the idea)) | |

Thanks for new Tindersticks. Their best album in a bunch. | |

Ah, so my annual pledge covers it already.. Curious.. how do other people Burn CD's from the archives. | |
|
Mon. 3/12/12 10:32am
T-Zero:
I don't have any special software, so I just use my system's built in features. | |
|
Mon. 3/12/12 10:33am
T-Zero:
I meant any special mixing software... | |

Mon. 3/12/12 10:34am
Liz B.:
As a general rule, it's a good idea to burn CDs at a very slow speed (8x or 16x), which helps to eliminate glitches/errors prone with faster burning. |
|
Mon. 3/12/12 10:36am
T-Zero:
I use 4x for CD-R/W and 16X CD-Rs. | |
|
Mon. 3/12/12 10:39am
T-Zero:
I mean that's what I was using. The ones I just ordered were 52X, so I'll keep my fingers crossed. A tech person said they'd been using the ones I bought for a long time without problem, but I take that with a grain of salt. | |

Mariano:
Morning Liz and all! So nice to hear your show live for a change! | |

3D-Nyc:
oops - never mind- I didnt mean burn a CD, I meant download a burnable file from the archives..I presently have a workround but thought there may be an official WFMU way to download the data file... BTW- the Various dj's CDs that come with pledges are wonderful, Great collections! | |

Hi Mariano, good to see you here! T-Zero: We've been using JVC Taiyo Yuden Silver Lacquer Hub Printable 52X CD-R Media (Everest Certified) for DJ Premiums for the past 5-7 yrs. They seem to hold up well, but I have heard many times that you can't trust a CD-R that is over 10 yrs old. |
|
Mon. 3/12/12 10:47am
BSI:
at the risk of repeating myself (predictably)... Circle can do no wrong. | |
|
Mon. 3/12/12 10:47am
T-Zero:
By over 10 years old, you mean because of the degradation? ... I was just looking and I have options to burn at fastest, fast, medium, or slow, so I can tell it to burn the 52x at a medium speed. | |

Far Out Fangtooth & Circle tracks were supoib | |

Mon. 3/12/12 10:49am
Liz B.:
The 10-yr rule is apparently due to degradation. Though I do have CD-Rs that are over 10 yrs old... some of 'em have held up, some not so much. I'd say burn slow just to be careful. |
|
Mon. 3/12/12 10:52am
T-Zero:
@Liz: Yeah, I wish the options actually listed the #X speeds rather than just fast, medium slow... I'll have to experiment if I run into problems with the new ones. But I've always read that they degrade. As for degradation, just playing my old CDs at home I've not noticed a problem with the really old ones. | |

Same for cassettes bleeding... What I notoiced with the old casettes though is the tape gets brittle and snaps | |

Mon. 3/12/12 10:55am
Moe:
If you're burning them as audio cds it's best is to keep backups of the original mp3s. If you want to rip your audio cds some years later you'd have to use a lossless format or re-encode the tracks to mp3 - this would mean a loss in quality. Okay, this is not a new advice, but I thought I tell it:) Nice show. | |

That is the most amazing Talk-over music. | |

Andrew Waterloo:
As for backing up your mp3s. If feasible, keep your mp3s in two places. Never trust one piece of media. | |
|

Mon. 3/12/12 11:21am
Liz B.:
What can I say, it's a bloopy day! Sage advice, Andrew. If you're backing up on a hard drive, better back up to two hard drives. |
