Thanks for the information :)) Sorry, I don't know anything about the Pro 6 model. If it doesn't have any fancy DSP on it, then it will probably do bit for bit transfers. But that's pure speculation on my part. I have found no drawbacks to the Nightingale. I only use it for recording to/from DAT or Minidisc, and it just works. Plain and simple. What more could you want from it? Yeah, toss the SBLive. Its onboard DSP makes it unsuitable for exact digital transfers. And the fact that you can't bypass the DSP. -steve - To stop getting this list send a message containing just the word "unsubscribe" to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

MD: Sony MDLP Walkmans and shuffle play
Hi everyone! Does anyone know whether the Sony MDLP-capable MD Walkmans can support "segue-shuffle" where, if a MiniDisc (usually a home-brew personal-favourites compilation MD) is edited with no silence gap between tracks, the next track starts coming through as soon as the current one ends when the machine is in shuffle-play? This is a feature that I enjoy a lot with my MD Walkman when I am playing my compliation MDs.
