Hi everyone!
There are times when we want to copy recordings that are on a standard
cassette to MiniDIsc or a computer's hard disk for "polishing up" with
programs like CoolEdit.
A format that has been forgotten about is the Digital Compact Cassette,
which was discontinued in 1997. One feature

Did you try turning the unit off, and taking the batteries out, and leaving

that, see if there is a 'reset to factory defaults' option in the service

Right, but it was not called that, it was called "Dolby Surround Sound".
It was renamed "Dolby Pro-Logic" for home receivers to avoid confusion with

Super Audio CD is Sony and Phillips latest

Does anyone know of a MD Recorder that has a digital out (optical or spdif

recorder? Any? Thanks in advance.

At the beginning of MD, Sony sold a portable recorder with digital
optical out. Nowaday, the only equipments that have digital out capacity are
MD decks. They very often have optical out but the high-end decks have
TOSLink and S/PDIF.

I'd say that's precisely it - a reason to make more money. Still, I can't
