MD: Strange interference... now online :)
Yah yah, I bet you're all sick of hearing about this. Now you can actually hear it for yourself, if you so desire. I snuck a recording of it earlier tonight and it actually showed up on the recording I made! That at least tells me it isn't *that* high pitched after all and that I (luckily?) don't have some hearing thing going on. Visit http://members.aol.com/zachr330/mystery_noise and download them for yourself. There's a wav and an mp3, each about 35 seconds long. The mp3 didn't seem to keep much of the high pitched whine I've been talking about, but it came through pretty darn good on the wav file. I played around with some EQs in Sound Forge and even with 20 db of attenuation at 16 kHz, the noise wasn't completely gone. I'd be interested in knowing if a) anyone else on the list can hear this easily and b) anyone else has a freakin' clue what this is. And it is MD related, because I recorded it on one. :P ~Zach (PS: The files should be uploaded after 15 minutes after the list receives this message. :) - To stop getting this list send a message containing just the word "unsubscribe" to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Re: MD: Strange interference... now online :)
Well, I saw a directional "Shotgun" mike at Best Buy for under $20 if I remember correctly. You could use that and track it down. If you don't have a shotgun mike, maybe you can put your existing mike inside a bottle or card board tube, cover the bottom ( where the mike is) with foam, to make a makeshift directional mike.

RE: MD: Car journeys and I'm bored!
The Sony cigarette lighter socket adaptors should be very easy to come by, I would imagine. As for extending the battery performance of the R55, the only way I can see without actually modifying the unit as such, would be to make a battery pack out of larger cells (like C or D size, despite their bulky nature) and plug it into the DC socket of the R55. Ensure that the battery pack is assembled to supply the appropriate voltage, of course.

For us English people on this list, does anyone know where I can get = a car adapter for long journeys - I'm going to France this year and I = have no desire to try and recharge batteries while on the move. I'm assuming Sony will stock them (go to a local Sony Centre - beware, when I asked about a mains adaptor for my Discman, the quoted 23 UKP..), else go to your local Maplins/Tandy and try out their power adaptors until you find one with the right size plug and the correct specs (good luck!). From looking at the error messages in the manual, it should tell you if it's out of spec (the "Hi DC in" message). 2.) How can you extend the battery life of the Sony MZ-R55? Please make = it easy, I don't trust myself with a soldering iron... Either use the supplied battery adaptor (and some pairs of AAs), or buy yourself a spare NiMH battery or two.

MD: dropouts
I've found problems with Memorex blanks on several occasions, in 2 different recorders; the problem is that the disc 'hangs' up and won't record or play past a certain point. Sometimes it will record all the way thru, but on playback it stops at a certain point and the timing display flashes the second before and after repeatedly, other times it just stops recording at a spot and leaves the rest of the disc blank. This happened on a Sony JE520 and a little Aiwa bookshelf model. It hasn't happened yet on my Sharp 722, but it's always a Memorex blank that does it. - To stop getting this list send a message containing just the word "unsubscribe" to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
MD: Dropouts
Hi all, I have a Sony Neige MD that has been recorded three times over. Before each recording, I did an "All Erase" to clear the TOC. While trying to do a name stamp on the third recording on a Sharp 831, I got a "Can't Readu" error message. So I put the MD in a Sony 930 deck to title the disc name only. Thereafter, I could name stamp all the track titles without a problem on the 831. While listening to the first track: 1. Consistent sound dropouts on the 831 2. No sound dropouts on the 930 deck 3. No sound dropouts on the MZ-R50 I'm stumped. Does anybody have an explanation for this? On another totally different recording done on a TDK MD. The total opposite happens. When playing the last track: 1. No sound dropouts on the 831 2. Sound dropouts on the 930 deck 3. Sound dropouts on the MZ-R50 Again I'm stumped Faizal Trading List: http://www.ntu.edu.sg/home2/ba7523921/index.htm __ Get Your Private, Free Email at http://www.hotmail.com - To stop getting this list send a message containing just the word "unsubscribe" to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Try The Sony Centre or anywhere selling Sony stuff. You can use virtually and cassette adapter with your MD (the ones that are designed for portable CD players are ideal) but you will need to check that any power supply system (plugging into cigarette lighter) is the correct type. I would be better to get the proper Sony adapter designed for use with their MDs for this. 2.) How can you extend the battery life of the Sony MZ-R55? Please make = it easy, I don't trust myself with a soldering iron... Well the simplest method is to attach the supplied AA battery pack.

MD: MD and Creative Soundblaster Platinum
Hello all Does anyone have any experience with the SB Live Platinum, and LiveDrive II? I though it would be ideal for MD - optical ins outs, etc etc Sadly, I'm having awful trouble getting it to output digitally, recognise my CD-ROM drive, or do anything really. The software doesn't recognise audio CDs, I can't get any internal SPDIF input from my CD and it basically doesn't seem to work. Normal windows noises and DirectX works okay, games seem fine. My CD is a generic 36x (Ultima Electronics). Could that be the problem? The CD has what looks like a SPDIF out connector (which fits the SB Live cable), but it isn't marked as such, so may not be at all.

Re: MD: copying to CD burner
Hello! I was in the same predicament as you a few months ago. My soundcard has no digital in so i was forced to make an analog CD. What I did was get an RCA cable that joins into one input plug. I stuck that bad boy in my comp's soundcard in and the two RCA cables in my minidisc deck's output. The program I use is called Jetaudio and works great. A good audio editor is necessary to take the input from your deck and convert them to wavs. If you do this at a sample rate of 44.1 it is near CD quality. I cannot tell unless i listen on incredibly great speakers. hope that helped, ~Brad - To stop getting this list send a message containing just the word "unsubscribe" to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
