  1. Thanks! We spent the afternoon searching through this forum, and laboriously reached the same sad conclusion. On the other hand, my husband's desktop system already has a (cheapish) "Trust" soundcard with both optical input and output. So, it looks as if I'll be able to record my interviews, then transfer the data across and can edit it on his system. We're only a small Hospital Radio station (in Weston super Mare) but we have good links with the local theatre, and (it being a seaside resort with a plentiful supply of new customers "in season") we get some surprisingly well-known "acts". Probably my biggest interviews to date have been with Frank "It's the way I tell 'em!" Carson and local-boy "Acker" Bilk. Having my own means of recording, rather than using the society's own kit, means that I'm ready to go at a moment's notice. Probably just as well that my husband didn't know about the ridiculous DRM restrictions that prevent uploading via USB... he'd either have spent more than we can really aford... or wouldn't have bought it at all! Whatever, many thanks for your advice!
  2. I'm the vice chairman of my local hospital radio station, and my husband thought it would be a good idea to get me a (second hand) Sony MZ-NF610 plus a Sony ECM-DS70P stereo microphone (and a stack of new Minidiscs!) as part of my Xmas present.... the aim being that I could then use it to record interviews and the like. He thought that as the NF610 is a "Net MD" with a convenient Mini-USB socket, I could edit the results on my laptop. After searching the manual (in PDF format, which is quicker!) I discovered the part where it says you can't transfer sounds that you've recorded yourself using a mike (i.e. interviews) from the MD to the PC... at least, not using the grotesquely unintuitive software supplied by Sony. Is there another way to do it? Any help and or suggestions would be gratefully received... but preferably NOT including "sell it and buy something different"; this was an Xmas present from my Husband!
