I find that, even when transfering 128K MP3 to MD, it is best to use digital
I/O so further degradation does not occur. Analog sound cards often have a
much poorer S/N ratio than the original MP3 file, and they often have
frequency response or phase shift errors at low frequencies due to
You could, of course, always color the cable with one of those special green
pens the experts like so much. They say it gets the electrons marching in
the right order

This wasnt the case .. there was no quiet patches of 3 seconds or more (its a

When you record with the analog input, the MZ-R55 takes care of the input
level. When there's no audio signal during 3 seconds or more, it adds a new
track mark.

After listening to records again, and all the clicks,

what the far right audiophiles are talking about.
How do they ignore all of vinyl's obvious flaws
while simultaneously convincing themselves of its
superiority!?

Hi,
I'm finally digitizing some vinyl favorites of mine (i.e. recording

Hi Rick,
Good question.
It might affect recording quality by not using all the bits available to
resolve the signal.
In the early days of CD's, the resolution or sound quality of some very
quiet musical passages was spoilt by (quantisation?) noise.
I wonder if it would be the same situation in

I have done more experimentation regarding the analog input

no amount of input signal will light the "over"
