Re: Minidisk fun....

that's good to know. I looked at one today and couldn't figure out why one would use it since it has mini plugs like the pismo. An Apple rep said it the new powerbooks didn't have mini plugs. So it does the plugs are better. AND it converts analogue to digital. And it works as an amp for stereo co

Re: Minidisk fun....

My iMic provides much better sound than the built in mini plugs in my Pismo and it also allows me to play directly from a turntable into the Pismo without a pre amp when I convert records to digital. Tom on 6/5/04 13:32, lily at [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: > Setting aside the type of recording devi

The quality of a Minidisk is less than the original CD and that difference is easy for me to hear, which is why I mentioned the quality issue. Tom on 6/3/04 1:04, Run Vzel at [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: > "If you were concerned with quality you wouldn't be using a minidisk in the >

I don't quite understand the HiFi-Link. With OS 9.2.2 it does work and with OS X it does work as long as you follow directions below? And by "work" do you mean through this device you can move data from the computer to the recorder in a sound file (digital time)? And upload a sound file from the r

I do that with SoundStudio, which seems to be working fine with X, by the way. I run my MiniDisc into the PB, record and convert with Soundstudio, and burn onto CD. I'm just thinking there might be a faster (Digital) way to transfer the analog minidisc onto my Mac, without having to record it i

I have the newer USB NetMD recorder, and that too will not work with a Mac. I've even tried hooking it up using VPC 6.1 and Windows 2000 without any luck. My solution to get a $100 latop PC on eBay (Toshiba 266MHz Tecra 550) and use that for loading music onto my minidiscs. The icing here is
