[please excuse my chatty mood] I've got a CD in right now (orbital, In Sides) and apparently it's scratched because it's skipping. But i'm listening to the skip and it's very irregular and cool. The skip is between beats, but it keeps shifting some and catching a bit of the beat after it here and there. Yeah, it sounds kindof like Pan sonic. Anyways, does anyone know what it is about CDs that lets them skip so cool like this at times but at other times they'll just loose track and spend most of the time scanning for thier place? Has anyone written essays about this? Is there any way that i can scratch promo CDs that i may not like (or other cheap things i come across) so they can do this instead of boring scanning all the time? Or is it dependent on the player? Thanks, i want to take some lemons of CDs and make sonic lemonade. (though it sucks that my orbital CD is now shot) Is there any way that this is bad for my CD player? I know the next step the music industry is taking is towards DVD audio. Anyway we can do this with that? Or better yet, that we can do this with DVD video? np: 1/2 second of In Sides on a shifting loop. _________________________________ Adam Roesch / xxxxxx@xxxxxxxx.xxx Augsburg College / Minneapolis / MN / USA Visit my Fila Brazillia/Pork Recordings fan site: http://dogbert.augsburg.edu/~roesch/pork/ "The only disease we need in our blood is love" TRICKY
