I said sure.

Australians are totally outnumbered.

But we're good.
VERY GOOD.

Firewire/USB PCI card for Power Mac 9600?

Can someone recommend a combination firewire/usb card for my Power Mac 9600/350 upgraded with a Newer G3 500/250, OS 8.6?

I'm pretty sure I'll have to upgrade my OS to at least 9.04, or even 9.1

I'm using a Pro Tools Mix Plus system. Will my PCI bus be overloaded if I install a PCI firewire/usb card?

Plastic heads for 32" bass drum

Hello again,
Can anyone recommend any promising plastic heads for a 32" birch bass drum?
I have FiberSkyn, and it's a disaster.
I also have some nice Kalfo calf heads coming, which are by far my preferred choice.
Nonetheless, weather does not always permit, so for the road in the rainy season I'm so far looking at Pinstripes and Remo coated white heads.

60" calf or elephant heads?

Howdy folks,
I'm on a quest just now for heads for a 60" Lefima bass drum.
The FiberSkyn and variants are out of the question.
Real hides that someone once lived in are in order.
Unmounted is fine, but they'd need to be at least 66".

There's an art to making one drum head out of multiple hides. Anyone have a line on that nearly lost art?
