Re: MD: track marking
You can put track marks anytime you want by pressing the record (REC) button or the BASS button during record. YOu can also use the timed track marking with the 701 Wall, Nicholas wrote: > > Hey Everyone, > > Another newbie question - I'm about to buy my first minidisc recorder > (probably a Sharp 831 portable) and I just read something that concerned me > a bit.

Re: MD: track marking
The Sharp 701 also only allows 'timed' track marks from the mic input. I also wanted to use this feature when recording from radio, so I made an attenuating lead - just a normal 2 x RCA to stereo minijack with a couple of resistors in-line. This drops the signal to the correct level to not over-load the mic input. I forget the value of them - I think they were about 15k (and probably the correct way is to use four of them one in-line and one across signal to ground for each channel) but it works fine You may be able to buy such a lead from Tandy etc - also Sony may have one as an accessory. Technically speaking it's probably not quite as good as recording from line-in due to the extra noise from the mic stage but I doubt you would hear the difference, especially considering the not so hi-fi source AFAIK, the Sony's don't have any provision for 'timed' track marking. GB BTW, just to clarify, you can add track marks manually at any time by just pressing the rec button, using any input (even optical?) but the attenuating lead is required if you want auto 'timed' track marks. - Original Message - From: Peter Wood <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Saturday, 16 October 1999 5:33 Subject: Re: MD: track marking > > Hya, > > >Another newbie question - I'm about to buy my first minidisc recorder > >(probably a Sharp 831 portable) and I just read something that concerned me > >a bit.

You can't press the record button (while recording) to create a track mark at the current point like is possible while recording via the line in?

MD: track marking
Hey Everyone, Another newbie question - I'm about to buy my first minidisc recorder (probably a Sharp 831 portable) and I just read something that concerned me a bit. Apparently you can only put track markings in when recording from a mic? Is this true? I will use my MD for recording from the radio a lot, and will want to put in track marks throughout the recording (say 10 minutes apart). Will I be able to do this? Excuse the ignorance.
