>Not group. Label. DIN most probably just stands for Dynamo (well, >that's >how it started ... :-) Other guess: DIN = Deutsche Industrie Norm >(German >ASCII). More info : http://www.snafu.de/~circonium/music/din.html DIN may be the German name for ASCII, but it also stands for a specific type of audio cabling (round plug with 5 pins.) It's a standardized plug you can see everywhere from certain power supply/ adapter plugs, to MIDI cables, to electronic music making equipment sync plugs. (DIN sync, or Sync24). My guess is this is how it ties into electronic music. Nick Rejack xxxxxxx@xxxxxxxxxxx.xxx ------------------------------------------------------------- "Both Rob and I see sound as shapes.
