Re: MD: How ATRAC actually compresses the audio?

I know that ATRAC compresses the audio somewhat by removing all the frequencies that the human ear cannot hear. I have also found out another way that it might compress the audio. I recorded one of my lectures onto MD and then transferred it onto as .wav file on my computer. When I

Re: MD: MD in movie

Minidiscs also feature in Strange Days, where they're used to record entire experiences for later playback. Now that's impressive compression... andi Got my DVD player today and a copy of The Matrix... And guess what... Neo's selling an MD in that movie, but as some kind of data disc...

Re: MD: Md and airoplans

My guess is that while MDs and CDs don't "transmit" any signal, they probably do output a lot of RF interference. I can't work out at which stage this occurs though. The major problem comes from any oscillator that has harmonics in the frequency ranges that are used by the plane's control

MD: anti-scratch

Hi list, I've had my MZR90 for 2 months now. Maybe I'm a bit careless, but I've already scratched the plastic over the LCD, so I'd recommend that when you buy a portable, you stick a piece of clear tape over the LCD(s). When this gets tatty, you can peel it off and replace it, leaving the

- Original Message - you'll probably notice that the bans are only on Airbusses. Is this from experience or some other reason? I have a couple of flights this week, both by Airbusses (A320/319) and would like to listen to my MDs or at least take the opportunity to title my tracks.

MD: DJ Minidiscs (actually players)

As far as I know, the DJ MD players (Dennon's MD2300R and the MD1000?) try to act like the DJ CD players do - pitch changed (speed) - tone change (bass/treble) The two can be linked so that you can play Barry White at techno speeds but not have him sound like the chipmunks - something that

MD: Sony MZ-R9: Does it occasionally erase disks?

Hello MD-List readers I just had a severe problem with my Sony MZ-R90 Minidisc recorder: I was listening and editing a previously recorded interview. While pressing T-Mark to add a new track, the minidisc shut down because of low battery. Afterwards, the disk was erased (Blankdisc). Did you

Re: MD: Sony MZ-R9: Does it occasionally erase disks?

It sounds like the battery was too low to update the TOC (table of contents) WHen it started to write it, it just erased it and ran out of power. There are ways to recover the disc, if you haven't written to it, you can clone another TOC and get most of it back. Markus Ulrich wrote: Hello
