MD: USB to digital?

2000-06-30 Thread Spicefish9


Greetings,

In a week I will be getting my mandatory college laptop, complete with a 
DVD player.  I am curious as to if there is a way for me to outfit my laptop 
with any sort of digital output?  Is there a USB to digital contraption 
anyone knows about?  Any information would be welcomed.  I have no idea 
exactly what kind of soundcard it has...I glimpsed a friends and it looked 
like it just had a headphone jack.  Thanks!

Yes, look at xitels webpage at www.xitel.com they have a new model which
has optical out. The one with the headphone jack is the analog unit.

My understanding is that Voquette is currently working on a USB to S/PDIF 
counterpart to its analog unit, now.

Re: MD: copy FROM MD to CD

2000-06-30 Thread J. Coon


I think the sharp only has the one output jack and it is used for
headphhones and line out, so you have to use that.  I don't know what
you are using for a CD burner.

 Gary--how do I copy my recordings that I make on MD to my cd burner? I have
 a sharp 722 and the manual doesnot mention recording FROM the MD only TO the
 MD. I have 2 cables that came with the sharp 722 but there is no output plug
 just the inputs-I figure the headphone plug is the only output.

Yes you're right but with the $25.00 shipping charge the cost come to
$145.00

We can have the MDX60 on www.mercata.com or www.etown.com for $147 --
mercata  $149.70 --- e-town and it's free shipping...

I think that it's better 3CD than one and better 40 watt/speakers than 20
watt...

It's a way of thinking...

One thing is sure this will help people to begin with minidisc !!!

hi all--  I am hoping someone can help me recover lost recordings.  I have
some MD's that my player thinks are blank.   I recorded a few long tracks
on each of them, but the recorder didn't write the TOC (in one case due to
a power loss; in the other cases, the recorder had a problem with its motor
which is now fixed).  I have read a number of websites and postings that
tell how to clone a TOC for other units, but none of these techniques work
with my sony.  does anyone out there have any ideas about how i might trick
it into writing a TOC on these "blank" discs?  or any other way of
recovering the recordings?
thanks...

I have an MDX5 and would not trade it for a MDX60.

They are two very different units,  the MDX5 is a very 
simple, subtle unit that will look at home in a family room.
the MDX60 is more from the "look at all my fancy lights"
school of design that would look right in a teen bedroom.

The MDX5 also lacks a cassette deck (a plus) and
has a keyboard connector on the from (a big plus)

You said it's a Sony, but you didn't say which model: which model?  Sony
portables cannot clone TOCs, nor can Sony decks of the ATRAC 4.0 series,
but other Sony decks can.

You have to let us know which model of recorder you own, or which others you
might have a chance to use.

| or any other way of recovering the recordings?

The only way to recover lost recordings is to write a non-empty TOC onto
those discs; the two phrases are almost interchangeable.

MD: Purchasing MD equipment from the US (to the UK)

2000-06-30 Thread Mathew J. Newton


Hi,

Has anyone out there (UK members specifically) had much experience in
purchasing MD equipment mail order from the US?

I have a friend in Arizona who would be willing to purchase an MD Player
on my behalf and send it to me here in the UK. Is there anything anyone
can recommend in order for this to be done without 'attracting' customs
charges, VAT etc? Can anyone shed any light on what the legalities of
this are?

If anyone has any experience of this I would be interested to hear any
advice you may have to offer. I assume that me doing it this way would
be better than purchasing direct from the mail order supplier and
getting them to ship it?

I am relatively new to this list and can appreciate that this could well
be a topic that has been heavily discussed before - apologies if this is
the case.

Kind regards,

Mathew
