Re: MD: Edd's extra tracks
Hmmm, so *this* is what happens when I go on holiday for a fortnight... 400+ messages!!! Doh! Oh well. Anyway, the same thing happened with a Fun Lovin' Criminals CD (100% Columbian if you must know) - first time I recorded it, it was fine. 2nd time and I ended up with 30+ tracks from a 16 track CD... Any suggestions? Thankz! - Original Message - From: David W.

Another one is that the source CD's tracks are subdivided with intra-track indices. The practice is rare, but the CD standard does support it, and I faintly remember reading ages and ages ago on either this list or its prede- cessor that in an S/PDIF transfer an MD recorder will start a new track at each intra-track index mark. What I'd really check first is trying to copy the CD to MD with a different MD recorder, preferably with a different CD player as well. If extra track marks show up in the same places, it's the CD. - To stop getting this list send a message containing just the word "unsubscribe" to [EMAIL PROTECTED] - To stop getting this list send a message containing just the word "unsubscribe" to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

I was recording today the Limp Bizkit album to my MZ-R55, via the optical cable provided. It was done onto some gold-coloured Sony discs. Now, it's a 16 track album - so why the hell have I ended up with over 70 tracks?! I've only had the unit for 10months. Surely it can't be knackered already?

Re: MD: Skipping on MD's
That is why they sell the belts that you can put a MD in and wear it around your waist. Where can you get these things!!?? I've looked all over the place for them. PS - I'm in the UK - To stop getting this list send a message containing just the word "unsubscribe" to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Re: MD: SB-Live Digi?
A possible stroke of light though, I seem to recall somwhere back a post about using the SB Live to get a digital output. Was that true? From what I've seen on their web-site, yeah, but I suggest that you (and possibly a few others here) check out this web-page here. Go to; http://www.americas.creative.com/sound/live/ to find out a bit more info. It certainly suggests that you get a digital I/O port with it though.

MD: Quality earphones
Hello all, At the weekend, I bought myself some new headphones to replace the Sony's that I came with the box (the wire length is a joke), so I bought myself some of the new 'Street Style' (hereby known as SS) headphones - and I'm now seriously regretting it. Even the boxed earphones were better! The SS ones are all bass and no treble. Drums play fine, but the guitars don't have any 'zing' to them (I know what I'm talking about) Can anyone recommend any good earphones? And whilst I'm on the subject, a good microphone? Oi will be mostly be listnin' to Metallica, Eels, Enigma and Fun Lovin Criminals.

MD: Eels, lovely Eels...
Within the next month, I'm going to be seeing the greatest band *ever* (ummm...), the Eels in London. Being a natural Minidisc type of guy I going to want to record the whole thing. I have a Sony MZ-R55 but no microphone. What I'm asking is... 1 - Can anyone recommend a good, compact microphone? 2 - I'm considering getting the SONY ECM-MS907 mic. - has anyone had any experiance with this and could possibly offer some tips? 3 - Is there anything that I should be wary of when gig recording with the MZ-R55? Thankz in advance, Cheers!

Re: MD: Mics
Sure, the mike doesn't care. Just make a battery box, plug them mike into a jack on one end, put a cord and plug on the other end and plug it into the line input. The mike doesn't care where the power comes from. This way youcan use it with or with out the battery box and use the plug in power. Hang on. So if you use the battery-box with the mic. for outdoor recordings, does this mean that the mic. uses the box's power instead of the MD's power?

Re: MD: Time to upgrade
What is it you feel you need that the R55 doesn't have? Well, for starters, I don't want to have to keep on recharging the batteries every so often. For instance, the single internal battery in the Sharp model runs for nearly the same time as the Sony with BOTH external AA's, and the internal one as well. That is my main complaint. The other reasons... well, they're kind of cosmetic - changing recording level and other types of these sort of things. And I'm considering upgrading, as I'm going to university in Sept. And now that they've abolished grants, I'm going to have to live off the savings that I'm accumulating during my gap-year (now) and bank loans. So while I've got a little bit of cash to spend, I might as well get the best model that I can. Oh, and how good would you say the Sharp is for recording lectures and stuff like that? Should I consider the (possibly slightly sheaper) Aiwa AM-F70? Cheers! - To stop getting this list send a message containing just the word "unsubscribe" to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
MD: Japan Direct
Has anyone from the UK used Japan Direct (www.japan-direct.com) service before? Did they accept normal bank cheques? Did you have to pay an import tax, and how much was it? And is there anything else that I should know about before I commit huge expenses? Cheers!

Re: MD: AIWA CSD-MD50 Atrac?
As I'm very nearly a student (gap-year sorta thing) I'm looking for somewhere that sells a nicely priced mini-bookshelf system WITH a minidisc system in it. Have any of you lot FROM THE UNITED KINGDOM seen anything? Oi'm currently saving up. Cheers! Edd "I'd rather have a full bottle in front of me than a full frontal lobotomy" Hi - Does anyone know what ATRAC version the AIWA CSD-MD50 mini-bookshelf system uses? By the way, JR Music has it for $199.99. CD, cassette, MD - a nice sounding unit for the money, in my opinion.
