Why "accuracy"?
Iain Churches said: http://www.kolumbus.fi/iain.churches...ProdnBatch.jpg Whatever they are, whoever they belong to, wherever they are. My workshop. Don't those open boxes get dusty? BTW, no amount of proof will ever get Krooger to admit that is your workshop. Lying about everything is so deeply ingrained into Mr. ****'s wetware that he is incapable of grasping even the meaning of "truth". |

Pics of which were posted on RAT (in a thread to which you posted) Come and take a look for yourself -any time. Coordinated lies are still lies. ;-) Pics of your amp projects would be of great interest. Check Behringer's web site for their A500. I can't afford the time to personally build a common kind of wheel. Note what seem to be power transistor cases on the middle deck of the closest chassis. ;-) Blind as well as stupid? :-)) At worst, victimized by a poor quality jpg. |

The dust contributes to the retro sound:-) They are all tested and await documentation in a couple of days they will have their top panels fitted, and be ready for delivery. You can see a ready one at: http://www.kolumbus.fi/iain.churches/Pics/02A.jpg The separate psu has two DC outputs, and can also power a tube vinyl stage, designed and built in the same format. BTW, no amount of proof will ever get Krooger to admit that is your workshop.

I actually feel rather sorry for him. |

So are saying you designed and built the Behringer A500? LOL That's the unit which according to the local agent is not worthwhile to repair. They put them in the bin and give the client a new one!

It's a B9A tube socket. Look along at the fourth unit, you will see it has the tubes fitted. |

Why "accuracy"?
"Arny Krueger" wrote in message ... "Iain Churches" wrote in message .fi... "Arny Krueger" wrote in message . .. Seems like you've done my work for me, Bassett. You could answer Bassett' question by forwarding the long list of recordings and catalogue numbers I listed for you when you were arm in arm with Pinkie. It shut you up, and will probaby shut Bassett up also. No completely solo efforts. You know, you arranged for the artists, obtained the venue at your own expense, personally owned every piece of equipment, did all the setup, recording, editing, production yourself. Apples-to-apples or zilch. But you are not offering apples. You are offering rotten apples. And by the barrel load too, it seems. I refer you back to my early posts, on how *proper* recordings are made - certainly not in the way that you are making them! Can't you hear that they are horrendous? Perhaps you cannot. Maybe that is what is wrong! Cut your production by 90%. You need be well-versed in the field in which you are working, be it Baroque, classical, pop, jazz or whatever. You need to know the repertoire. You need to pay attention to detail. In your case, where you cannot afford the services of a professional producer, you need to be constantly thinking not only about the technical but also the musical aspects of the performance. If you want to record choirs, and it seems that you do, take the time to listen to some proper choir recordings with good performers (King's College, Cambridge, on Decca, is one of the finest in the world, recorded in an excellent acoustic) Listen intently, follow the score. Learn. You are doing your church a great disservice by passing off such shoddy work. Shame on you! If, on the day of Judgement God turns out to have perfect pitch, you and your band of tambourine bashers will be in real trouble:-) Take much more care, with infinitely more forward planning, for each project. Have higher standards. Listen to other people's work. Keep in touch with reality. Forget your "Been there, done that" You may have been there, but you did nothing at all of any merit. Iain |

Recording, like any other profession is not something one picks up. It requires study, and a great deal of practice. Been there, done that. There you go again:-) You need to work under a master craftsman. You need to study music theory, look at orchestral scores, and know the classical repertoire well. Iain, here's a news flash for you that you seem to badly need. Not everybody who records music, records classical music, or orchestras. Indeed. But the above still applies, just as in the same way that not all pianists play classical music. But you will find, that most of the best jazz players for example have a strong classical technique. Listen to Bach. Was he not the King of Jazz? I worked a couple of times with the American clarinet legend Benny Goodman. He used to warm up on "The Forty Eight" You're living in the past Iain. Benny Goodman has been dead for over 20 years. And Bach died in 1750. Does that detract from his greatness? I worked with BG when I was a very young man. It was an unforgettable experience. You have a Bachelor's n'est-pas? In this part of the world they have not been awarded for many many years. Iain, so what? It's about the equivalent of the Swedish secondary school leavers certificate for students going on to Poly. Nonsense. True, sorry to say. I doubt that you could pass the Swedish sec school leavers exam. Your English is not good enough:-) Iain, You're talking trash again. Hourly rates billed, and annual taxable income are two vastly different things. Most of my professional life, my time was billed by my employer at $160 or more, even back in the 1980s. In contrast my annual income barely got into the 6 figures. So have you always been employed by someone else? They are skimming the fruits of your labours. In the case of a transcription engineer working on a consultancy basis, he is his own employer and so the total invoice is paid to the company of which he is a shareholder. But, wait a minute, I recall not to long ago a claim by you, in some strange twisted logic, that you had earned enough money for your church to warrant the title "professional recording engineer". You don't meet the criterion in any sense. You're talking trash again, Iain. I never said any such thing. You can try to google up your lost reputation for truthfulness at your earliest convenience. I won't need to do that. It caused great amusement at the time. Someone will remember, and send it to me by e-mail., that's for sure. Iain, it is obvious from your many posts attacking me that I manage to obtain considerable amounts of your valuable time. ;-)' Usually when the DAW is uploading or downloading. So it's not my time (work it out:-) Given your outdated, narrow views and history of endless bad faith, I hope to keep it that way in the interest of minimizing the ignorant spew that foist off on Usenet. I was sent some mp3 clips of a choir which you have recorded. Quite dreadful! When you've heard them live to compare, be sure to comment again. I pray to God I shall be spared from such an experience. Give me the wonderful music of the Russian Orthodox any day. |

One hears frequently of people who have "upgraded" (their term) Yes, their term only. from an SS to a tube system. One never hears about anyone going the other way.

Once again, comprehension let's you down badly, Arny. I am referring to current trends in purchasing. Hi Arny. You've missed the point again. The past trend in purchasing was to scrap tubes for solid state. That took tubed audio gear from total dominance down to a tiny niche. That tiny niche of remaining tubed equipment is so miniscule that it could double, triple, probably even grow by 10 times, and still have no discernable impact on the sales or usage of similarly-functioned SS gear. Now you are back to lowest common denominators again Arny. Is that all you understand? What interests me here is not mass sales. The number of suits sold by Saville Row tailors is miniscule compared to those sold by your cheap and cheerful American mass-retail outlets. In the same way the sale of Bentleys might be small in comparison with Toyota or Nissan, but the people who own a Bentley, just like the people who own a bespoke tube amp, would not change it for the world. The same applies to hand made furniture, or small volume clock and watch production. I for one am happy that there is still some demand for craftsmanship in the world. Iain |

Do yo have examples of your 'work' online, Arns? Is your best stuff on your website? Who is better than you at recording? JA? Bob Morein? Who of the pros is as good as you are, Arns?

The Five Stages of Krooger Acclimatization
Iain Churches said: BTW, no amount of proof will ever get Krooger to admit that is your workshop. Lying about everything is so deeply ingrained into Mr. ****'s wetware that he is incapable of grasping even the meaning of "truth". I know that George. He strikes me as a sad old fellow. I actually feel rather sorry for him. That's Stage Three of the Five Stages of Krooger Acclimatization. I'm sure you've been through the first two; here's the whole list. * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * The Five Stages of Krooger Acclimatization 1. Rationalization When a Normal first encounters the Krooborg, his or her first instinct is to reason with the Beast. It's only natural to try to clear up what appear to be misunderstandings, whether by repetition, reasoning, or reference to documented facts. Rationalization always fails with the Krooborg. It usually leads to Turdborg calling the Normal a "liar" or inventing bizarre and twisted interpretations of what the Normal said. 2. Outrage Krooger's ridiculous accusations, mindless hair-splitting, and outright lies tend to inspire outrage. During the Outrage Stage, a Normal is likely to snap at the Krooborg, call it names, or make an issue of its towering hypocrisy. None of these Normal behaviors deters the Krooborg from seeking what it believes is a "debating trade victory" -- i.e., more of the same behavior that outraged the Normal to begin with. 3. Pity After observing at first-hand the Krooborg's inability to converse with human beings, most Normals experience pity for it. The Beast's unhealthy emotional state and obviously damaged mind cause most Normals to try a bit of consoling, or even apology. These human responses are likely to provoke Mr. **** into proclamations of "victory". 4. Disgust The Fourth Stage occurs when a Normal realizes the pointlessness of continuing to engage the Krooborg. Having failed to reach it with logic, reason, submissiveness, or babying, the Normal is likely to give up on having any serious exchange with Mr. ****. 5. Reviling or Killfile Having reached the inescapable conclusion that treating the Krooborg as a human being is pointless, the Normal almost invariably either skews his or her posts toward hostility or simply ignores the Beast. (The few exceptions are Normals who are employed in the audio industry.) If you encounter an individual who does not either revile the Krooborg or have it killfiled, that individual is a 'borg. * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * This pattern has repeated itself many times. The pattern is well-established and ineluctable. (Other posters have described the Krooger Effect in different terms; the Five Stages described above are the Resistance's official stance.) |

Very nice but relevant to life in 2007 how? For me, quite simply by building experience, and a recorded repertoire. Everyone in jazz knows of Benny Goodman, and to have worked with the man is a great honour. Clarinet students today listen and study his work, just as saxophone students study the work of Charlie Parker who died in 1955, and jazz composers and arrangers study Ellington who died in 1972. That kind of genius is timeless. That is how it is relevant to 2007. I doubt that you could pass the Swedish sec school leavers exam. Your English is not good enough:-) So you say, Iain. But according to you tubes are poised to make a comeback in the audio world. How relevant is that? Where did I say that? You are rambling my dear fellow. Since the the 1990s sales of tube amps have been increasing steadily. They are not huge, but there are a number of small companies, like Patrick Turner for instance, and Per Lindstrom here in Sweden, who make a very good living indeed building bespoke tube amps, to the customer's exact requirements. Beats being a second hand computer repair man any day, doesn't it:-) So have you always been employed by someone else? Most of my life. They are skimming the fruits of your labours. As did your employers Iain, presuming that you were once far more relevant and productive. I worked at two major companies, because this was the way to get the training and experience which I needed, It was the best investment I ever made, and has certainly paid itself back many times over in later life. Obviously you've never run a consulting business, Iain. There's this little thing called "overhead". I am a partner in two thriving companies. But, wait a minute, I recall not to long ago a claim by you, in some strange twisted logic, that you had earned enough money for your church to warrant the title "professional recording engineer". You don't meet the criterion in any sense. You're talking trash again, Iain. I never said any such thing. You can try to google up your lost reputation for truthfulness at your earliest convenience.

Obviously, neither does sound quality interest you. Gosh. You are thick.! Tube audio is a hobby for me. The fact that is is a hobby which also brings in income is besides the point. The number of suits sold by Saville Row tailors is miniscule compared to those sold by your cheap and cheerful American mass-retail outlets. Irrelevant comparison because a custom-tailored suit does actually fit better. When a client buys a custom built amp from Patrick, or Lindstrom, his wishes become a part of the design strategy. He may choose the number of inputs for a preamp, balanced or unbalanced, at a chosen sentivity. He may choose on a power amp the chassis materials, stainless steel, nickel plated, copper or whatever. So, just like a Saville Row suit, the system fits and reflects the personality of the owner. It is *exactly* what he wanted. Not some shoddy SS amp in a 1mm thick folded chassis, available from every discount store from LA to Hong Kong. In the same way the sale of Bentleys might be small in comparison with Toyota or Nissan, but the people who own a Bentley, Major justification: status symbol Excellent car. The only people who don't like them are those that haven't got one. just like the people who own a bespoke tube amp, would not change it for the world. Major justification: status symbol Ditto.

Without, it seems, a modicum of good taste:-) I for one am happy that there is still some demand for craftsmanship in the world. I hate to see good workmanship wasted on whimsy and weak egos badly in need of tangible support. People like Patrick, and Lindstrom, are the most pleasant and content people one could wish to meet. Tube craft is a very rewarding pursuit. But it requires a level of dedication that few possess. |

The Five Stages of Krooger Acclimatization
On 12 Sep, 22:05, George M. Middius cmndr _ george @ comcast . net
wrote: Iain Churches said: BTW, no amount of proof will ever get Krooger to admit that is your workshop. Lying about everything is so deeply ingrained into Mr. ****'s wetware that he is incapable of grasping even the meaning of "truth". I know that George. He strikes me as a sad old fellow. I actually feel rather sorry for him. That's Stage Three of the Five Stages of Krooger Acclimatization. I'm sure you've been through the first two; here's the whole list. * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * The Five Stages of Krooger Acclimatization 1. Rationalization When a Normal first encounters the Krooborg, his or her first instinct is to reason with the Beast. It's only natural to try to clear up what appear to be misunderstandings, whether by repetition, reasoning, or reference to documented facts. Rationalization always fails with the Krooborg. It usually leads to Turdborg calling the Normal a "liar" or inventing bizarre and twisted interpretations of what the Normal said. 2. Outrage Krooger's ridiculous accusations, mindless hair-splitting, and outright lies tend to inspire outrage. During the Outrage Stage, a Normal is likely to snap at the Krooborg, call it names, or make an issue of its towering hypocrisy. None of these Normal behaviors deters the Krooborg from seeking what it believes is a "debating trade victory" -- i.e., more of the same behavior that outraged the Normal to begin with. 3. Pity After observing at first-hand the Krooborg's inability to converse with human beings, most Normals experience pity for it. The Beast's unhealthy emotional state and obviously damaged mind cause most Normals to try a bit of consoling, or even apology. These human responses are likely to provoke Mr. **** into proclamations of "victory". 4. Disgust The Fourth Stage occurs when a Normal realizes the pointlessness of continuing to engage the Krooborg. Having failed to reach it with logic, reason, submissiveness, or babying, the Normal is likely to give up on having any serious exchange with Mr. ****. 5. Reviling or Killfile Having reached the inescapable conclusion that treating the Krooborg as a human being is pointless, the Normal almost invariably either skews his or her posts toward hostility or simply ignores the Beast. (The few exceptions are Normals who are employed in the audio industry.) If you encounter an individual who does not either revile the Krooborg or have it killfiled, that individual is a 'borg. * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * This pattern has repeated itself many times. The pattern is well-established and ineluctable. (Other posters have described the Krooger Effect in different terms; the Five Stages described above are the Resistance's official stance.) I've completely skipped step 3, Pity. |

"Iain Churches" wrote in message i.fi... "Arny Krueger" wrote in message . .. "Iain Churches" wrote in message i.fi... You've missed the point again. The past trend in purchasing was to scrap tubes for solid state. That took tubed audio gear from total dominance down to a tiny niche. That tiny niche of remaining tubed equipment is so miniscule that it could double, triple, probably even grow by 10 times, and still have no discernable impact on the sales or usage of similarly-functioned SS gear. Now you are back to lowest common denominators again Arny. Who says its low? Is that all you understand? Yawn. Is is past your bed time? What interests me here is not mass sales. Obviously, neither does sound quality interest you. Gosh. You are thick.! Tube audio is a hobby for me. Yeah Iain, a really odd hobby where you waste time with less than the best sound available for a reasonable price. The fact that is is a hobby which also brings in income is besides the point. Agreed. So why say it? We've heard you brag about this, plenty. The number of suits sold by Saville Row tailors is miniscule compared to those sold by your cheap and cheerful American mass-retail outlets. Irrelevant comparison because a custom-tailored suit does actually fit better. When a client buys a custom built amp from Patrick, or Lindstrom, his wishes become a part of the design strategy. Most people are far more interested in how the music sounds. Sue 'em all! He may choose the number of inputs for a preamp, balanced or unbalanced, at a chosen sensitivity. What does it matter as long as there are enough inputs with the desired config? He may choose on a power amp the chassis materials, stainless steel, nickel plated, copper or whatever. What does it matter as long as the parts are kept safe, and the ergo and appearance is reasonble? So, just like a Saville Row suit, the system fits and reflects the personality of the owner. What does it say if a person needs crutches to project who they are? It is *exactly* what he wanted. Not some shoddy SS amp in a 1mm thick folded chassis, available from every discount store from LA to Hong Kong. Straw man argument, the only reasonble alternative is not shoddy. In the same way the sale of Bentleys might be small in comparison with Toyota or Nissan, but the people who own a Bentley, Major justification: status symbol Excellent car. The only people who don't like them are those that haven't got one. Wrong. For many people it is a completely impractical car. Furthermore it projects an image of materialsm and "It's all about money, my money" that may not fit them. just like the people who own a bespoke tube amp, would not change it for the world. Major justification: status symbol Ditto. Ditto. The same applies to hand made furniture, Actually interesting when unique pieces are involved. or small volume clock and watch production. Major justification: status symbol You are indeed a pleb! Without, it seems, a modicum of good taste:-) I don't care what you think of me, Iain. Denigrate my preferences as you will. Most persons with taste will consider the source. I for one am happy that there is still some demand for craftsmanship in the world. I hate to see good workmanship wasted on whimsy and weak egos badly in need of tangible support. People like Patrick, and Lindstrom, are the most pleasant and content people one could wish to meet. They have the pleasure of service and craft. Too bad they are so taken up with trying to please some very shallow people. Tube craft is a very rewarding pursuit. Only if the best possible sound is not your goal. But it requires a level of dedication that few possess. It requires a level of obscurity that most have no time for. |

Iain Churches said to The Big ****: And Bach died in 1750. Does that detract from his greatness? I worked with BG when I was a very young man. It was an unforgettable experience. Very nice but relevant to life in 2007 how? For me, quite simply by building experience, and a recorded repertoire. Everyone in jazz knows of Benny Goodman, and to have worked with the man is a great honour. Clarinet students today listen and study his work, just as saxophone students study the work of Charlie Parker who died in 1955, and jazz composers and arrangers study Ellington who died in 1972. That kind of genius is timeless. That is how it is relevant to 2007. Your point is quite right, and the wisdom of it is apparent even to non-productionoids (most of RAO). However, you're "debating" with someone who has repeatedly pooh-poohed music as a reference for audio. -- "Music is irrelevant to audio." A. Krooger (1998, 2001, 2003, 2004, 2006) |

"Iain Churches" wrote in message i.fi... Cut your production by 90%. Iain, I'm only meeting demand, which you have frequently claimed as a justification for your weirdness. You need be well-versed in the field in which you are working, be it Baroque, classical, pop, jazz or whatever. Working on it. I've got an in-house guy with a PhD in music to help me. You need to know the repertoire. I don't get to choose that. You need to pay attention to detail. Been there, done that and in many ways you'll never understand for lack of practical experience. In your case, where you cannot afford the services of a professional producer, you need to be constantly thinking not only about the technical but also the musical aspects of the performance. I leave that to the PhD who works with the musicians. If you want to record choirs, and it seems that you do, take the time to listen to some proper choir recordings with good performers (King's College, Cambridge, on Decca, is one of the finest in the world, recorded in an excellent acoustic) Listen intently, follow the score. Learn. I rarely have the luxury of even a mediocre acoustic, so Iain your advice is worthless. You are doing your church a great disservice by passing off such shoddy work. I've produced about 400 hours of work for my church. How much of it have you heard? Shame on you! If, on the day of Judgement God turns out to have perfect pitch, you and your band of tambourine bashers will be in real trouble:-) We do have a tambourine, but its part of much of our musical genre. Your comments indicate ignorance of the genre in which I often work, Iain. Take much more care, with infinitely more forward planning, for each project. Planning is another thing that is pretty limited by the context. At the earliest, I know the song selection 4 days before the day of recording. Have higher standards. If I had higher standards for many things, I'd be of zero service to my market. Listen to other people's work. I do that quite a bit. Keep in touch with reality. That would mean totally avoiding you, Iain. Forget your "Been there, done that" You may have been there, but you did nothing at all of any merit. So what percentage of the 400 or so hours of recordings that I've made in the past 4-5 years have you heard, Iain? |

You could answer Bassett' question by forwarding the long list of recordings and catalogue numbers I listed for you when you were arm in arm with Pinkie. It shut you up, and will probaby shut Bassett up also. No completely solo efforts. You know, you arranged for the artists, obtained the venue at your own expense, personally owned every piece of equipment, did all the setup, recording, editing, production yourself. Apples-to-apples or zilch. Ha, You forgot to say, that after all that non-productive work, he also spends all his spare time on Usenet , promoting his ever increasing ego. Ask yourself a small question, If he's that wonderful, successful, and well known, How come he lives in an arseole of a ****ry, [ there's an advert there for ''shooter'' Jennings] like bloody Finland. he know doubt exists in a small room behind the sardine factory. Of cause for all we know, he could be living next door to Phil A, or he could be Phil A. Now there's a thought, worthy of consideration. bassett |

If they aren't, it says a lot about how pathetic your life is, that you would go to these extremes to gratify yourself. I really dunno why you bother Arny,, The blokes on a giant ego trip to know where. Ask him , just how many valve amps he's produced over the amount of ONE Hello Bassett. Nice to see you teamed up with Arny:-) people tend to do that when an infection arrives http://www.kolumbus.fi/iain.churches...ProdnBatch.jpg Well they won't win any awords for design, that's for sure. Second batch of ten now being built. Most are already reserved. there lose is our gain, Still anyone doing business with the likes of you, deserve's all they get. First of all Bassett, you need to get your terminology right. There is no such thing as a production engineer in music recording. You are either a Producer or an Engineer. If one does both roles, then Producer/Engineer is the correct title. I don't need to get anything right, If you don't like what you read, don't read it. life really is that simply Unlike your goodself, Bassett, I have no need to cower behind a pseudonym and a false e-mail address. That will be the day Boy, that I cower behind anything, I also don't need to explain my reasons for the bodgee name or address, to the likes of queer ****s like you. Get a copy of the Decca, RCA or Fuga classical catalogues.Then look at the EU Cultural Foundation database. You will find plenty of my work there. Iain Still going on about Decca are we, pathitic really, bit like benny goodman, or Benjamin David. Anyway the ****'s dead. Your living in the past, you really should up date your brain, together with your ego. lov to arny bassett |

But you will find that in a more global sense, the word "tube" is widely used. In addition, except for Russian, where they use the word "lamp" the word in most languages translates to tube and not valve (which is a device to restrict liquid flow) Tubes are things water runs through.... No, they are pipes. |

You need be well-versed in the field in which you are working, be it Baroque, classical, pop, jazz or whatever. Working on it. I've got an in-house guy with a PhD in music to help me. Excellent. That's very good news. Step 2. Keep your mouth shut and listen to the man. Learn from him. Also, get yourself enrolled as a recording arts student. Level 1. and take it from there. You need to know the repertoire. I don't get to choose that. You miss the point. You need to know the repertoire. You need to pay attention to detail. Been there, done that and in many ways you'll never understand for lack of practical experience. You may have been there, but you cannot make the same mistakes over and over again. In your case, where you cannot afford the services of a professional producer, you need to be constantly thinking not only about the technical but also the musical aspects of the performance. I leave that to the PhD who works with the musicians. That is the incorrect approach. You are working as a close-nit team. Please try to inderstand that. I rarely have the luxury of even a mediocre acoustic, so Iain your advice is worthless. The advice, which any professional will give you, is invaluable. You need to build a reference, and you cannot do this by listening to your own (in your case) poor recordings. You are doing your church a great disservice by passing off such shoddy work. I've produced about 400 hours of work for my church. How much of it have you heard? Not too much. Thankfully. Shame on you!

So what percentage of the 400 or so hours of recordings that I've made in the past 4-5 years have you heard, Iain? I have heard enough to tell me (with reference to the work of first year students) that you don't have a clue at the moment. That's a pity, because I get the feeling that recording is something close to your heart. |
