Aug 27: Colts vs Bucs

 

Lucas Oil Stadium:

First time in Lucas Oil Stadium with the roof open which really added to the experience of watching the game last night. Remarkable piece of engineering!

Game:

Brady only played the opening drive last night and marched the Bucs straight down the field going 6 of 8, converting on 4th and 3 and then settling for a field goal. Colts struggled to contain him and after he left the game the Bucs struggled to move the ball. I've always thought the phrase "anyone is replaceable" was a ridiculous statement. People great at what they do constantly prove that they are game changers and irreplaceable.

Colts ended up with the win: 27-10

Tascam DR-05X Recording Setup

Image
  Below is the recording setup we have started with.  The Tascam DR-05X handheld recorder set to 16 bit, 44.1k WAV format (typical CD quality).  The line-out going from the Teac TN-300 turntable is going straight into the Tascam and the blue output from the Tascam is going back to the speaker so we can hear what we are recording.  Manual recording level is set to 5 to avoid saturation and the external battery bank allows for many hours of rechargeable recording time.  We already had all of these components so we started here and with a good quality LP the quality of this recording setup is very good.  Post processing we are using Audacity to balance the channels and normalize the output and if necessary use WaveCorrector to remove pops and cracks.  Teac TN-300, Tascam DR-05X, Battery Bank Christmas Day, Various Artists LP
