So far, I have avoided buying the $20 lens-cleaning disk for my Sharp 722
MD recorder. However, I find myself using the recorder a lot, so my
questions are:
How important is it to use a lens cleaner? How often should the lens be
cleaned?
Thanks in advance,
Paul

Ok, I'm hooked. I find myself using my Sharp 722 recorder all the time for
recording music sessions. However, when I go out to record, I always start
with a blank disk (because I don't know in advance how much music I'm going
to record). Typically, I only wind up with 20-30 minutes of stuff I

uhm, did it once with a micro cassette, and all it did was make a very
useless streamer, but there were no parites to use it at, so it just
got trashed...
I don't know how much I'd trust the MD for data integrety after a washing,
as it would probably damage the lube
Anyone know where I can get a 5 meter optical (toslink on both ends) for

Damn... no wonder some of my recordings sound so flat :-P

While to hear (well, read actually) these forward-thinking posts on the
lists broadens our minds and opens up the digital recording future, there
are people on Ebay selling (drumroll)...
reel to reel tapes.. (yeah that was my first thought too... "Huh?" :-) )
Oh... not the house/hip-hop group.

Only to your sanity I'd imagine - as there's no contact there's nothing to
damage or wear out.

As Ralph states in his last email chip design is limited by the lythography
process(defining features onto the silicon waffer). Actually as an aside by
decreasing the wavelength of radiation used the lythography process
obviously becomes more accurate; they already use UV and (I think) will

IF it says MD, it is "an MD". If it says MiniDisc, it is "A MiniDisc".
When you see CD, do you think CD or Compact Disk?
