I'm not sure but I expect that some do. An alternative explanation for the reduction in volume: It's possible that in your case the Left and Right channels are getting slightly out of sync. with each other somewhere during the recording process. To see if this is the case you could record in stereo from a source with two identical channels and then do an L-R comparison after recording to the MD. If they were out of sync. then this would tend to reduce the amplitude causing what you are observing.

Is the volume OK (maximum) - if so, the recorder is probably averaging the two input levels to get a mono signal. It's a pity that this isn't very easy with SPDIF :) Jonathan - To stop getting this list send a message containing just the word "unsubscribe" to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
