This may be a dumb question, but is G-Protection
anything additional to the units? I thought it was just
a marketing name for the normal 40 second buffer.
Can anyone verify?

This may sound like a weird question, but I'm curious to see if anybody
else has experienced this, or if my ears are just off. I've got an
MZ-R50 that is about a year and a half old, and works like a charm.
Is it possible for it to slow down or or adjust pitch? If this was a

Honestly? I don't know what is wrong with your R50...
but it seems like a logical place to start looking
and if poking at a button/lever/whatever can avoid sending
it in for service, why not? don't take yours apart unless
you're really comfortable with doing that kind of thing
it's almost as bad
Not sure where the 'button' is off the top of my head, but I do recall
there being web pages with closeup shots of a disassembled R50, that
you should be able to find on www.minidisc.org.
Luckily there is pretty much somebody crazy enough to take apart
evertyhing they own, photograph it, and
uhm, yes there IS software you can buy to get close to what you want.
You'd be better off getting original cuts from the studio straight
from the board, instead of trying to "disassemble" the music you've
got already. You probably already know that... so sorry
for stating the obvious...
Anyway,
Actually on the pages I've seen regarding how to get into service mode
on whatever deck or portable, that statement IS there...
