Re: MD: MD Drive

2000-04-13 Thread Edward Foster


BTW- both (all) Sony data drives have been discontinued.  The last 
drives were manufactured in 1995. It is still possible to find used 
and sometimes even new ones on places like eBay. I might 
mention that the drives cannot write ATRAC audio without a 
firmware update (EDL is the one people that I know of that do this).

Hold DISP for 3 seconds (in stop mode). when "CLOCK SET" is 
displayed, press MODE. "BEEP ON" will be displayed. Press 
enter and "BEEP OFF" will be displayed. press STOP.

Re: MD: Refurbished Sharp 702s

Hey- refurb isn't so bad. I got an AIWA AM-F70 for only 183.00 
(w/shipping) off Onsale.com. It hasn't given me any trouble more 
than one disc error.  I really like this unit, and I've had it for 7 
months now, and you still cannot get it new for that price.

Re: MD: MD Bundle 6 recorder problem

2000-02-23 Thread Edward Foster


Could possibly be the discs. Try using a different brand of blank 
and see if that makes any difference. Also, are you playing the 
discs back on the same deck that you recorded them on (mds-330 
I think)? That also could make a difference.

anyone knows of any place to buy one (other than eBay).

Re: MD: MZ-R90 and shock protection

2000-02-09 Thread Edward Foster


It would be impossible for the R90 to actually spin the disc slower.  
If it did, it would not have enought headway to fill the buffer and play 
music.  What it does, is slowly spin up the disc (smooth 
acceleration) instead of starting it of at full speed. That saves 
battery juice. So what you are really waiting for is the disc to get 
up to full speed.

Re: MD: AM-F70 "Disc Error"

2000-01-11 Thread Edward Foster


I had some errors with a "caution" message but never the one you 
are mentioning. i found that usually what it needs is a gentle 
smack (oxymoron anyone?). One time, I opened the unit up (took 
the clamshell lid of by loosening the 4 screw on the side) and 
disconnected the tiny ribbon cable for the display from the unit. 
When I put it back together 2 minutes later, it magically worked. 
Please realize that both of these methods are very risky and can 
result in damage to your unit. Operate at your own risk!

Re: MD: Questions re: Audio Outputs on Denon Deck

2000-01-04 Thread Edward Foster


Corrections-
Balanced is not digital - Balanced is a type of analog  
connection. However, an AES-EBU digital connection uses the 
same XLR cable for transfering.  But this does not mean that the 
two are the same.
Unbalanced is also not digital - It is a coaxial analog 
connection (RCA's, 1\4", etc...) A digital connection that uses and 
RCA jack will be strictly labeled S/PDIF COAX digital.

Re: MD: mp3 to md quality

96kpbs is nowhere near "CD-quality". If you get up to about 256 or 
320kbps, then it will be "near CD-quality".

Re: MD: MD as 140MB storage medium for MP3?

1999-11-25 Thread Edward Foster


128kbps is not CD quality sound. 256 is close but still not there.  I 
can tell the difference while I am listening to a 128kbps source. 
Portables are not available to perform this task yet because they 
are not equiped with mp3 decoders.  However, it is quite easy to do 
with an MD data drive on the computer.
