MD: MZ-R50 potentially dying

2001-06-16 Thread Tony Antoniou
I've noticed lately that in bass heavy recordings (or even when I'm just in the studio with the band and pounding away on the drums), my recordings are starting to get choppier and choppier by the session. I have a feeling that after about 100 recordings, the optical block is starting to show

MD: white noise coming out of my portable

Having played around a while with my 'first Sony' (TM) (Sony MZ-R700) and having filled up the first 5 MDs and being who I am, I complain: Whenever I play an MD, there is white noise (I hope that's the right term, German description: weiches, glattes Rauschen) in the background, when I hit play
