If they all have optical outputs, perhaps the simplest way to do this is use two Toslink splitter/combiners. Feed two sources into the first splitter. Feed the output of that splitter into one input on the second splitter. Feed the third source to the other input on the second splitter. Feed the output of the second splitter to your stereo input. The only thing you have to watch is that only one of the sources is on at any time. Otherwise it won't work. You'll find details about the Toslink splitters on our Web page. I hope this helps!

all right this also has probably been discussed, but for those of us who use outhouse express (aka outlook express) what do we need to put our settings at so this group can actually see what we are posting? thanks. on another note, is MDLP worth anything if you like md for the quality and dont care about taking extra blanks with you? except maybe for recording lectures. - Original Message - From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, April 18, 2001 4:51 PM Subject: RE: MD: selector box question === The original message was multipart MIME=== === All non-text parts (attachments) have been removed === - 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]

QED distribute a premium-grade "two-deck" unit and a "three-deck" unit through most specialist hi-fi stores - you may have to order the unit in. But you can get a cheaper unit from Tandy / Radio Shack which handles three recording devices e.g. a cassette deck, an MD deck and a CD burner. This one uses four knob switches on the front - one for each deck and one for the amplifier. For the switches that are associated with the decks, they select between the other two decks or the amplifier while the one that is associated with the amplifier selects between the amplifier's REC OUT sockets or any of the three decks. Some other accessory makers like Musicway may supply switch boxes that route recording and playback signals with two or three tape decks.

hey how do you guys handle having like 3 different output sources and one input source for dubbing? i have a DAT, a CD burner, and an MD player/recorder. i dont have enough inputs in my stereo to handle all these sources. so, im thinking i need a mixer or something that will allow me to selectively switch the output between 3 differnt sources (DAT, CD, and MD) and send a signal to a single input in either another digital recording unit, or at least my stereo. know what i mean? for example: on the back would be 3 input jacks, and 1 output jack. on the front would be a selector switch to allow me to route one of the three sources to the target recording device. like an A/B/C selector switch. sound doable? kip _ Get your FREE download of MSN Explorer at http://explorer.msn.com - To stop getting this list send a message containing just the word "unsubscribe" to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

MD is almost made for DJs. so quick to setup and record my sets. anyway. i have my dvd/cd player, my turntables, my computer, and my minidisc player all hooked up to it. my mixer has more than one output so one goes to the sound system, and the other goes to the minidisc recorder. now. if you want to be able to export optical to your minidisc recorder, you'll need to get a mixer with optical output (they do exist) but are kinda on the pricey side. But there are also mixers with analog output that sound quite good for the price. anything from the NUMARK pro series will be just great. i myself have a numark dm1800x which is a couple of years old at this point, but still sounds good and i haven't had to replace any parts on it yet (knock on wood). and it has EQ on each channel which is essential for DJs at this point. almost all mixers have that feature now. if you have money to burn, go with the pioneer mixers (they go for about $1000) but have minisamplers, bpm counters, and all kinds of effects built into them. they are fast replacing Rane mixers as the prime mixer used at most parties and clubs. stay away from gemini, they sound crap. they've tried to make improvements, but still, there are better brands. also, avoid "scratch" mixers which are designed with trick djs in mind. they tend to have 2-3 channels max. get something with at least 5 channels so you have room to grow. you should be able to find something decent for $2-300 these days because prices have dropped. - To stop getting this list send a message containing just the word "unsubscribe" to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
