Why would you have to explain Metro Fire Department Vs micro Farad?


To most people, DMV stands for Division of Motor Vehicles. Every state
has one. But around here in the Washington DC area, people too lazy to
write "Washington Metropolitan Area" use DMV, meanomg District,
Maryland, and Virginia. No concern that there are parts of Virginia and
Maryland that are more than 200 miles from Washington DC.

We have WMATA - Washington Metropolitan Area Transit Agency - that
operates the airports and subway system, and they make their area of
coverage clear. But why would i eat at a restaurant where I go to renew
my driver's license (OK, I can do that on line now)?

And wasn't there some concern about the confusion between The Beatles'
Apple record label and Apple Computers? After all, both involve music.
If The Beatles wasn't so big, they would have lost that battle.

But it's possible that you might have occasion to write "The 2000 MFD
capacitor blew up and I had to call the MFD when the flames got too big."

WHAT has ANY of this to do with the role of mixing & mastering in creating either a great album or a fatiguing flop?

It has to do with understanding the language.

Maybe you shouldn't insist on using obsolete and non-standard
terminology. When you insist on avoiding the standards, the confusion
is obviously the fault of you, and you alone.

Heh. I learned a couple of days ago that I may be handed an archive of
roughly five hundred cassettes to transfer to digital.

Until that happens I am going to try not to think about it.

I'll say, I can only imagine what might happen if a 2000 Mega Farad
capacitor blew up!!

Why, I'd be thinking about how much I was going to charge if I was you.
And whether you have a suitable cassette player, or need to buy or
repair one. Or whether to give the job to someone else.
Only then will you know what to say if they ask.

Remember a "their risk" clause, some of them will part from the reels. You
don't say what it is and thus also not wether "scott grade" quality is
required, but if you can find a portastudio or similar and transfer both
sides of the tape in one go you have reduced the workload.

Until that happens I am going to try not to think about it.


I get it, we can look forward to a stream of comments from you posted while
the transter takes place?

When you hear the words "archive," "roughly," and "cassettes" together,
you KNOW this isn't going to be a paying job. The best pay you can hope
for is that some of them might be fun to hear.

Bill them for the cost of a Nak Dragon, then you can do 90% of it unattended.
You'll have a few bad shells and a damaged tape, perhaps, but it's much easier.

I did a lot of it for money. Even in 2014 I did some, some of my own, too.
In 2015, I already know I'll do some for fun, own recordings, rehearsals and
so on from '80s and '90s. They come handy for my YT clips.

It's my perogative as an old fart.
It's not MY fault they keep changing the standards.
