Hi all, I'm back after a really long time...a few years ago I bought a grey
market Kenwood DMC-G7R and about a month later it broke on me -sniff- so I
stepped out of the world of Minidisc until now! I've got me an MZR-700 which
I'm extremely impressed with. Anyway, my question is, should I have g

For me it is whichever manufacturer has labels I can write on. TDK is my
favorite
Thanks for the advice and information, guys. I figure I'll just stick to
what's been working well for me. I've basically just been picking up Sony
discs (I have one that came with my unit, and 80 min EQ(?) I think, as well
as an 80 min Prism), and they've worked well enough thus far.

My recordings still skip, and cleaning the MD lens didn't help. I would
like to try raising recording laser power a couple ticks. Does anyone
have any ideas on how to get into Test Mode on this minisystem?

in the area and they haven't gott

This would require modulation, like the old C64 and Apple ][ tapes. And
yes, doing so would require some very high frequency square waves. Maybe
DCC does that, b

Hi miniDisc enthusiasts,

computer's sound card (with optical output) to my MD Deck. However, the MD
Deck doesn't pick up on the signal because of d
