No. I have heard that Irix on SGI w/stations has a piece of software called DATMAN or something like that. Apparently you can read audio off DAT but I dunno about recording. As for PC forget it - Unless I'm wrong????? IDM content: Are there any new releases from Sun Electric. I haven't heard of anything from them this year. Oh well, it certainly doesn't help being stuck in Nigeria. I plan to deconstruct and remix some Fela Kuti trax if anyone is interested? kontrolman -- ------------------------------------------------------------------- Matthew D.
