That's probably because the bass was so damn much it was distorting at the

Sounds like you need a high pass filter (or otherwise termed as a bass
roll-off filter) to help cut down the amount of bass getting to your
recorder.
Personally, I haven't recorded a rock gig, par

I don't feel that MD was invented for any particular genre in music, it's
just that the general audience has a preference for popular music I guess.
Just like when CD was invented, it wasn't created simply for classical
music.
As far as the clarity is concerned, I think that MD is more than suit

Not really. Mp3's at their usual bitrate suck compared to ATRAC anyway
because of the more limited frequency response.

I have Sound Forge and have used it to edit MP3 files. What actually happens
is that SF decodes the MP3 file (if you have the plug-in) and allows you to
edit it or add effects, do mastering or whatever you like. Then when you
save it, it encodes it as MP3 again. SF is a dynamite tool for editing
Three things will solve this problem:
1. Get a bass roll-off filter. Heavy bass will drown out a lot of other
frequencies. It's not the MDs fault if all that's left for it to encode is
heavy bass.
2. Get better mics - the digital noise is primarily due to lack of
definition from the mics
