Re: MD: deep optical question
This situation of digital audio information running thru equipment has me curious. I master albums of my own music to MD (all the editing options lets me continually change my mind about things), and then make CD copies, running the MD digital out first thru my old Pioneer CD recorder, and from there thru my newer Philips CD recorder. I'm assuming I'm able to do this since the first CD recorder doesn't register as "a copy" as far as SCMS goes. Could there theoretically be an endless chain of digital recorders all copying at the same time? Is the digital signal "the same signal" all the way thru, or is it continually being changed as it passes thru each recorder? -*- -*- -*- -*- -*- -*- -*- -*- -*- -*- -*- -*- You have just read e-mail by Ken Clinger.

MD: Analogue copy of CDR
Hi everyone, My Dad is going to borrow a 'Music' CD-R of a Bing Crosby album, which he wants to copy onto MD using his MXD-D3. Now if I've got this right, the original was a CD, copied onto 'music' CD-R on a Traxdata home hi-fi deck. Therefore the CD-R will have SCMS on it to prevent another digital copy? If so, he'll need to do an analogue copyif this is the case, will the analogue copy have track marks etc. or will my Dad need to do this himself afterwards?

RE: MD: deep optical question
Putting it simply, no. The reason for this is because the digital out spits out exactly the same information as what comes into the MD's input simply because it is put through to the digital out directly without any looping through the unit's ADC/DAC circuits. It is unprocessed/untouched.

I didn't think that you could get an MD recorder to go into the record mode unless there is a disc in it.

Re: MD: Analogue copy of CDR
Well, the track marks appear only if: you have synchro record on and if there are at least two seconds between the tracks. However, the sound has to drastically drop out for two clear seconds, because track marks do not appear when I record lp's to md.

Re: MD: Analogue copy of CDR
[reply posted only to MD-L and not to MDUK] Martin Clinton asked, | My Dad is going to borrow a 'Music' CD-R of a Bing Crosby album, which he | wants to copy onto MD using his MXD-D3.

Of course it will have SCMS on it; the question is how the SCMS bits will be set, and that depends on some additional factors. First, perhaps the dubbing from the original CD to the CDR was an analog transfer. If that's the case, the CDR's tracks would be SCMS-penultimate, and SCMS would allow digital copying from the CDR to an MD. Second, Martin said "if I've got this right," so I take it he isn't positive that the CDR was written on a standalone CD recorder (which would obey SCMS.) If it was burned on a computer, its SCMS setting would be whatever the burn- ing software decided or let the user select; the CDR tracks could be SCMS- unlimited, in which case there should be no further interference from SCMS. The only way to know for sure is to try copying it digitally and seeing if SCMS stops you. Now, I don't know what the MXD-D3 does if you tell it to make a 4x copy of SCMS-final CD tracks to MD. Does it fall back to analog on its own? Does it refuse to record? A look through the manual on the MDCP doesn't seem to say. | If so, he'll need to do an analogue copyif this is the case, will the | analogue copy have track marks etc. or will my Dad need to do this himself | afterwards? My guess is that it will get tracks marked. The manual says nothing to the contrary, and I know that on my MDS-W1, when the MD SYNC function encounters SCMS-final source tracks and falls back to analog, the track marks are still made on the copy and the track titles are still duplicated. - To stop getting this list send a message containing just the word "unsubscribe" to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

MD: Panasonic MDLP recorder.
Does anyone know if panasonic is going to release an MDLP portable recorder? If so, when is it due out? Matt - To stop getting this list send a message containing just the word "unsubscribe" to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Re: MD: Panasonic MDLP recorder.
Hello, Panasonic hasn't released anything that has MDLP modes - the only Japanese MD equipment maker to have no MDLP in their products. Based on past schedules, the current model (MR200)'s product life cycle would be ending some time in mid-2001. If an MDLP-compatible recorder is to be released, I'd imagine that's when.
