I know we are not supposed to talk about other threads here, but something funny happened to the VPN thread. It was an old one that got bumped by possible shills, and instead of being locked looks like it was un-bumped. What's the opposite of bumped?
How cool is that??
BTW if I disappear for awhile, you will know why.

I remember pining for a reel-to-reel in order to lengthen listening time capabilities. Sadly, by the time I acquired one the iPod had made them essentially obsolete.
Anyone interested in a C&V RTR?

Recording ones and zeros to vinyl you can store a LOT more than that on a record, and would probably choose a very low RPM so more data can be stored.
As for how many MBs of music you end up with when encoding to 16/44.1...
That resolution results in approx 10 mega per minute, so let's say 450 megs worth of music with a high dynamic range. You can squeeze a little more music on a record but quality begins to suffer.

As a musician, I would think that you, perhaps more than or at least as much as anyone else on here, would appreciate the art that is involved in the vinyl format. From the album covers, sleeves and inserts, to the order in which the tracks are arranged and transition, to the tonality of the music, vinyl albums convey a sense of art that is missing in CDs, MP3s, and streaming formats.
When your community band performs a concert, is the music chosen so there is a flow to the set, or do you just randomly select 3, 4, or 5 songs that are disjointed from one another and awkwardly transition?

As for the band concerts, good question--I've wondered it myself. Sometimes there's a clear theme (one time we had a "western" concert), but often it seems we just follow a formula of a couple marches + a couple movie/musical themes + etc. and randomly pick songs to fit the genre.

When I was a wee lad, and we lived in Rochester, Dad sang with the Rochester Oratorio Society. He had one tape from a performance, I don't even know of what, because we didn't have a tape deck. I think he borrowed one from a friend, once, when I was a yute.

I haven't tried that yet. That kind of storage sure is cheap nowadays.

Isn't that the SIM card? What phone are you talking about?

What is the big one? I have a friend in Pittsburgh who is a big audio geek, and he may be interested or know someone.

It has a sim card and a Micro SD slot. They were even available with dual sim, but I think ours are just single sim. Moto G6, we got a couple of them when they had a BOGO sale - buy one for $229, get another one free.

If I still lived in NYC, I'd probably be able to find it a home. I'm pretty sure that my friend, a speaker maker based in Brooklyn, has one - I think I've seen it in his YouTube channel. He would likely know others that might be interested.

Man, you've got it worse that me. In my defense, though, I'm extra frustrated waiting on a couple of little accessories that are required to actually use a piece of woodworking equipment that I bought last week - nothing like having a new toy tool staring you in the face and not being able to use it because you're waiting on a $10 part.

Model A-3340S
I gotta find the chord and check the working condition.
Oof! Over 40 lbs I think.
Full disclosure: If it still works well and sounds sweet I may not want to let it go.
