MD: Emphasis

2001-05-04 Thread Linus P Sweers
I just found an interesting issue or observation. I have a CD that was recorded with emphasis. The disc is classical music, and I am sure the recording crew deemed it necessary to record this way to better represent highs and move some of the noise into regions of the sound spectrum where the no

I have a Mac G4 and I am brand new to using my mini disc recorder, the Roland UA-30 interface and Peak to edit the things I record. I have a very simple question. If I record a single track on the mini disc, can I add tracks to the sound file with Peak? I have used cut and paste (to a new fil

Hi Shaun, I'm forwarding your note to the Minidisc mailing list (MD-L). I do remember an MD-L old timer who had a JVC XM-D1. If I recall correctly, he thought that machine was the cat's pajamas too. Hopefully someone out there still has one they can sell you. The machine is: http://www.minidisc

MD: sec: unclassified LP to MD

2001-05-04 Thread Timothy Stockman
I have done quite a bit of LP-to-MD. The biggest hint I can offer is: Do it a track at a time. Fade out at the end of each track to eliminate surface noise between tracks. I use "A-B" edit to chop off the surface noise at the beginning of each track. (Point A is set to "track top" and point
