This may well be true, but then where does that leave newsgroups like      
Alt.guitar.tab where lyrics, chords and tablature make up 99% of the postings?
Do you advocate the closure of that newsgroup? And what of all the ftp sites
which carry such music and lyrics?   

I don't dispute your claim about the legality of the issue, it's just that
I have a problem with the hard-line attitude against people trying to help
others out, whether it's for the garage band trying to decipher the lyrics
of "Louis Louis" or a performing band trying to figure out the chords for     
cover they want to do at their next gig.              

Despite all the legalities surrounding the issue I think that music is
supposed to be shared. I, myself would feel flattered that any band would
want to cover my songs, whether it's the garage band getting together every
weekend or U2 playing to stadium-sized audiences ('cha right...) I find
that I wouldn't mind if any band made money playing my songs since the music
I write was meant to be shared and not to be protected by loops of red tape
which curtails almost all enjoyment out of playing or listening to the music.

I *DO* however have a problem with false claims to authorship, and this is
where I think copyrights justifiably come into play. *NOT* the performance 
of music.

I have used sone of the earily Peavey dynamic mics.  They seemed to be
OK.

I once did a direct comparison, on voice,  with the following mics:
Shure SM58, Shure SM48, Audio Technicia Pro 4L, EV PL95.  All of the
mics are ball type vocal mics. The tests were done in studio, using
good headphones. Both of the Shure's published specs were very close, the 
Shure's advertized the famous Shure "Presence Peak" The response graph on 
the Audio Technicia's show smooth rise in response above 3kHz.  The EV's 
published graph was similar to the AT.

The place where the published specs on the mic's differed was in the
polar patterns at low frequencies.  The Shure spec'ed the best and
performed the best in live use.  But the others performed well also.

Is the SM58 worth up to $30-50 more wholesale?  I guess so.....

All of the mics sounded the same on voice.

>Final question:  of the Shure SM58 and Shure SM57, which is

Both Shure SM58 and SM57 are unidirectional.

If anyone has any information about Electronic Wind Instruments or something similar, please let me know! I've been playing saxophone (alto, tenor, soprano; tenor being my main axe) for about 8 years now, and would really like to break into the electronic music field. Questions I'd like to get answered:
	How does the fingering/action on an EWI compare to a saxophone?
	How does the ambouchure on the EWI compare to, well, a saxophone?
	What will I be looking at in the monetary department?
	Any other information regarding general usage of the thing, i.e. does it work through MIDI?

Thanx in advance.

Gotoh old style tuners (are not bad at all).

special strat sound.  Ash handmade body with nice natural/lacquer finish.
Individual switches for each pickup.. Shielding done (almost as quiet as 
O
Non-Whammy bridge-brass that has chrome on it.. (i know about it because I 
had a part of it removed by a machinist and he tol me it was actually brass 
with a coat of chrome on it.  
Price is $300.00 but is actually a very good value for the money. It is 
negotiable. I'm in canada, so anyone interested can call @

I am also looking for Ampeg manuals - I got a wonderful SVT-III
used, but it came with no manual, and I'd like to have one
to see exactly what it can do and specs and such... if anyone knows

This is a very nice sounding pedal...  It has a very warm sound
and is a good approximation of a "real" tube overdrive sound.

It has a tone control, a Overdrive Control, and a Volume Control...
Using the tone and overdrive controls, it produces a wide array
of tonalities.

I bought it used about a year ago, so I think its probably 2 or 3 years old.
(it has a 5-year warrnety, so it SHOULD still be under warrenty)

Anyways, I havn't had any problems with it. (it had a loose battery
connect, but I had it fixed) and it comes with the original box and 
instructions

I would like to either sell it for $30 or trade it for a Compressor or 
Delay pedal.

I will go down on the price if demand (or lack thereof) warrents it.

	Hi there, I have an interesting problem and I hope someone can help
me with it.

	This last weekend, I played live with a band for the first time, (yes,
it went very well, thank you), and I ran across an unanticipated occurence.
Upon returning home, I discovered my guitar smelled horribly like stale 
cigarette smoke.  For some reason, I never thought this was possible.  Anyway,
I wish for my guitar to no longer smell like cigarette smoke, so I was wondering
if anyone else had run across this problem and what they tried to remedy it,
and what worked.  E-mail if you like, post if you like, I'll post a summary
of what I get.

For whatever it's worth, I would think most of us (songwriters included) find
it absolutely loony that copyright law prohibits telling someone what the
lyrics to a song are.

Such, I realize, is the nature of copyright law, but one hopes the net of all

Subject: New England Conservatory Opera Season Opens to Full House
Organization: Mail to News Gateway at Wang Labs
Date: 14 Oct 92 16:26:52 EST

Boston, MA--October 14, 1992--The New England Conservatory in Boston
opened its opera season last night under the direction of John Moriarity.
The New England Conservatory Opera Theatre performed scenes from Ariadne
Auf Naxos, Mignon, and Summer and Smoke, in addition to a recital
of "Tu, che di gel sei cinta" from Puccini's Turandot, sung by promising
newcomer Jennifer Ayres.

After intermission, she started off with a scene from Bizet's
The Pearl Fishers.  This was followed by Thomas Lehmkuhl's
"audition" performance of "Sois immobile" from Rossini's William Tell.

The NEC Opera Studio then put on an impressive performance of
a scene from Bizet's Carmen with mezzo-soprano Angela Horn in
the role of Carmen.  She followed that up with a recital of
"Amour, viens aider" from Samson and Delilah, both performances
being very enthusiastically received by the standing-room-only
audience.

The evening's event closed with the "Spinning Quartet" scene
from von Flotow's Martha, staged by James Robinson, as were a
number of the earlier scenes.

Mr Moriarity had opened the evening's festivities by indicating that
the NEC opera companies this year have some of the finest performers
they have ever had.  This level of operatic excellence seemed confirmed
by the audience, which regularly called the singers back for third
bows, while two bows have been usual in previous years.

The Opera Theatre and Opera Studio perform every second Tuesday at
the NEC's Brown Hall in Boston, next to Symphony Hall.  The next
performance is scheduled for October 27 with scenes from Arabella,
Hamlet, Die Fledermaus, Mignon, The Pearl Fischers, and Don
Giovanni, starting at 8:00 pm.

For those you are considering buying ADAT and looking for reviews,

most of us could never afford to buy.  With all due respect to

MIX magazine owns Electronic Musician (they bought them a year or two
ago) so many of the MIX reviewers now do EM reviews - perhaps the
same review is printed in both mags (I don't get Mix so I wouldn't know).
So their reviews should carry a similar weight.
