Each month, I will offer up a different concert
from the archives for download. The files will be in lossless
FLAC format. Where
possible, I will include whatever CD art I've created on the
download page. You can use either
Click n Design or Sure
Thing Deluxe to print the CD art. Many of
these shows are high-quality audience recordings. Some will be
soundboards, and some will be soundboard-audience blends. I will
state the source on the page for each download.
Each month, the new show will
be available for download either as a complete zipped file or in
song by song mode. Because of space issues on my server, I have
decided that the current month, plus the prior three, will be available
as both complete zip file shows or song by song mode. Shows from
farther back will be available only in song by song mode, so that
those who have dial up and are late to the game can still get the
shows. If you have broadband, you can download a free download
manager to download all the files of a show without having to keep going back and clicking each song.
I hope to keep up to a year's worth of shows available at any given
time.
If you haven't yet
registered for the 4thellamas message board,
take a moment to do so now. It will enable you to participate in
voting for the shows that are released for download and give me
feedback on the shows.
FLAC files are the
preferred method for distributing audio files in the taping
community. They compress the file without losing any information.
FLAC files can also be
played using Winamp without being
decoded.
If you want to burn these shows
to CD, here is what you do. First, download and install the
FLAC decoder. Next,
download the songs or entire show. Open the
FLAC program and drag the
downloaded files into the FLAC
files window. Enter whatever directory you want the decoded files to
be put in under the "Output Directory" window at the bottom. Now
click "Decode." The FLAC
program will decode the files into a .WAV file with bit perfect
accuracy, and the .WAV files can be burned to CD.
