Just captured the audio from wilcoworld of Berkeley gig.

 

Its streaming at 1500kbps - very large WAV files - the whole gig has hit my computer at 1.47GB.

 

Previous archives have been nothing like this in terms of file size. How come the increased quality?

 

Its great.

If the stream is really an uncompressed source, anyone with the know-all want to make a matrix mix?

 

I'm assuming this is uncompressed though I'm no technofile. The files are large, average about 40MB WAV files for a 4 min song, actually even bigger than the Troutdale, Oregon show that surfaced via bit torrent (soundboard and audience mix).

If what you mean by a matrix is an audience recording mixed with the stream I'm not sure you need it as the crowd are fairly loud in all the right places.

 

Anyone enlighten on files sizes and compression?

Can anyone who has the capability to capture the stream share it?

I'd like to see this, too. For some reason I can't get the Berkeley stream to work. The Edmonton one works perfectly--not really sure what the problem is. If they really are streaming it uncompressed, then that could be the reason. I'd really like to get a copy, especially since it was my first Wilco show, and the AUD recording I have brings back the one negative memory I associate with the show--the talking.

How do I get these to work? I've got a mac and there's a quicktime symbol with a questionmark over the two slots on the roadcase page.

 

Are these still up, am I retarded and not doing something properly?

 

The Shepherds Bush streat worked fine when I wanted to listen to it! don't understand!

just curious why there's no lossy format protocol... isn't distributing shows in mp3 format a no-no?

converting .flac to .wav or .mp3 is simple.

 

i thought trading in lossless formats was the cornerstone of the trading niche..

 

only time i convert a show to mp3 is when i rip it to my iPod.

i thought the lossless format was the norm, across the board...

other than when i'm listening to .wav format that's already burned to a CDR, i pretty much listen to all my boots in .flac format with Winamp.

 

if you're used to mp3 formats and haven't been spoiled on the high-end audio like i have been then it probably doesn't make a big difference. but i'm all frowns when someone sends me a CDR with mp3s on it.

 

:-(

 

see?

From Bt.etree:

Why not MP3/VQF/AAC/ETC?

These compressions all use a lossy algorithm. This means that over time, these lossy recordings can be re-extracted and re-encoded so that it sounds very inferior to the original source.

 

From Tape City:

- No audio torrent may distribute any lossily compressed music [e.g. MP3, VQF, OGG, or audio extracted from video DVDs that are not explicitly known to have uncompressed LPCM audio] so long as the material has been or is expected to be available to the trading community in better quality. In the rare cases where we allow audio material from lossy files, it must be in the original lossy codec and filetype: conversions to a filetype for lossless audio are always prohibited.

i dont mind random tracks from shows posted as mp3s (i even do it myself) but complete shows have the chance polluting the trading circuit cause some people dont label them as mp3 sourced.

 

i remember doing a dylan trade a few years back where the person insisted that the tracks be in mp3 format. i mean, he didnt have a cd player? :brow

I do care but sometimes flacs are a bit overkill(example-Dylan- http://www.dylannl.blogspot.com/

 

or how many external HD's should I buy if it's being flac-only??
