I happen to have "pro" MD and CDR equipment.
Now I really havent bothered to look into the issue, becuase
Im mostly making mixes and thus HAVE to use analog inputs;
I dont think Ive even seen a full digital mixer - at
least not something that has a cross fader.

I usually make the mix on MD and then download to CDR -
since all the equipment is "pro" ive never cared
to see what SCMS settings were...

Anyway - I do recall some configurations settings
so that I can
1 - follow canonical settings
2 - force to no copy
3 - force to one copy
4 - force to unlimited copy
Im not sure of the details, but if anyone is really
intersted, I'll look it up
  - Tascam CDR-1000 (no longer sold AFAIK)
  - Denon MD-2300R

Anyway - the point of the post was to obtusely
state my opinion of the whole SCMS issue - in that
all this "I want a SCMS stripper" inquiry is kinda
DUMB. What it seems is that people want an SCMS
stripper that costs next to nothing.
Pro level equipment in effect has a SCMS stripper
built in. The cost of pro equipment is roughly
twice that of consumer equipment. I have seen
pro MD units for about $600 (Sony MD-11? - the neat
1U unit) Yeah - it might be possible to get a home
unit for $150 and a "stripper" for $100 but why
deal with all the "shady aspects", the pro stuff is
legal to buy and own... oh - thats right we want to
STEAL music.... hence the quest for low cost.
So if thats your angle - go steal pro equipment?

Sorry for the rant - I just find it silly that someone
is going to NY to get an "theft" device when one is
probably available at the local music shop (for enuff $$
of course)
