MD: Cheap disks in Tokyo
I found the cheapest disks I've yet seen in Tokyo last time I was there. Victor colour palette 10 packs for Y1500 which works out to USD$14.14 or AUD$23.58. USD$1.42 or AUD$2.25 per disk! I'll find out the name of the store and its address next time I'm in Tokyo (second week of May) for anyone in Tokyo looking for the cheapest possible. --- Rev Simon Rumble The Roman Rule: [EMAIL PROTECTED] The one who says it cannot be done should never http://www.rumble.net interrupt the one who is doing it. - To stop getting this list send a message containing just the word "unsubscribe" to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

I use a 4.5V charger with my MT-821 (bought it in Japan, Australia uses 240V). Works fine. The difference is that while the 5V one will charge while the MD is playing, at 4.5V it won't. It charges when switched off though. The reason they have to support 4.5V is that it's easily stepped down to from 12V as used in cars. Read the spec sheet of your MD to see if it supports 4.5V. They seem to accept more than one voltage. --- Rev Simon Rumble The Roman Rule: [EMAIL PROTECTED] The one who says it cannot be done should never http://www.rumble.net interrupt the one who is doing it. - To stop getting this list send a message containing just the word "unsubscribe" to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
MD: DJ minidisc players checked out
Well I found a place that has the Denon DJ minidisc player in Akihabara (Tokyo). It was, from memory, 60,000 Yen which you can convert to your local currency at www.currency.co.nz -- for me it puts it around the same price as an SL1200, which I guess makes some sense. My first impression is that it's very big. The pads to select tracks or loops take up an inordinate (and I think excessive) amount of space, making the unit about as big as a normal turntable. I'd like to see one that's just a little larger than a portable MD player. COnsidering any DJ using the thing won't be able to rely on the venue providing it, you'll need to lug them around everywhere you go. Otherwise they're pretty damn good. Quite likedc it. Pitch and Speed control wass sensible and easy to use, loopiong worked quite well. The price seems a little high, since a portable is so much cheaper and you'd need two of them. But if you're dead keen on being a DJ, probably not a bad option. --- Rev Simon Rumble The Roman Rule: [EMAIL PROTECTED] The one who says it cannot be done should never http://www.rumble.net interrupt the one who is doing it. - To stop getting this list send a message containing just the word "unsubscribe" to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

I was anticipating on something so I could play a song, and insert things in, to kind of have fun a little, and my primary want is to record a lot of shows most likely from satellite at certain times automatically. Is this player capable of cutting commercials from radio like that? What can it do that normal md decks can't? I think the idea is that you can change the speed and pitch so you can mix Minidiscs like on an SL1200 turntable. That's what I'm interested in. Going to Akihabara this afternoon to check 'em out. --- Rev Simon Rumble The Roman Rule: [EMAIL PROTECTED] The one who says it cannot be done should never http://www.rumble.net interrupt the one who is doing it. - To stop getting this list send a message containing just the word "unsubscribe" to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
