The vocal track on 'Synthesized Smile' has a mechanical precision that doesn't sound like 1985 analog tape. Every single tape box is stamped 'VOICE PRINT: GEN-3' in purple ink. That matches the Ashford memo from 1989. Who was the engineer at the Akasaka branch? The studio log only lists the initials 'M.H.'. -- Jen Hernández Opinions expressed are solely my own and not those of Public Access Unix of New York. ------------------------------------------------------------ From nsuzuki@uni-hamburg.de Thu Dec 21 15:42:24 1995 Path: ashpoly!cascade!transat!sunet!nordrelay!uni-hamburg!nsuzuki From: nsuzuki@uni-hamburg.de (Nadia Suzuki) Newsgroups: alt.fan.nova-hart Subject: Re: Question: Akasaka Master Tapes recovery (May 1995) - full tracklist analysis Message-ID: <1995Dec21.154224.4651@uni-hamburg.de> Date: Thu, 21 Dec 1995 15:42:24 GMT References: <1995Dec20.221124.5837@panix.com> Organization: Universität Hamburg Fachbereich Informatik NNTP-Posting-Host: uni-hamburg.de X-Newsreader: TIN [version 1.2 PL2] Lines: 10 In article <1995Dec20.221124.5837@panix.com>, jhernandez@panix.com (Jen Hernández) writes: > Now that the files from kamome FTP have circulated, we need to talk about the Akasaka reels. > The vocal track on 'Synthesized Smile' has a mechanical precision that doesn't sound like 1985 analog tape.
