Hi! I've recently bought 2 minidiscs to record rehersals with my band and one of them broke down after just a few test recordings with my computer. I have no idea why but when I try to record something using the Net MD feature or with the line in after I turn off the power the MD says "BLANK" and the recording disappears.
Another issue with both my MDs is that when I try to upload a longer audio track (e. g. a song by Dream Theater, which is about 8 mins long) the MD just shuts down and it won't record anything longer than say.. 5 mins. This is the case with both my net MDs.
Could you please help me? I really like this equipment and wouldn't want to sell it for peanuts on ebay.
cheers from Poland
Vlad

Hi Vlad. They both have a very common fault that affects this unit, and a few other models. The flexible cable to the write head is cracked and goes open circuit part way along the disc. The result is hanging of SonicStage, or a completely blank disc when recording via analog sources. It can be fixed, but that depends on who you know locally that can repair MD units, or whether you are prepared to post them abroad.
