WHAT'S GOING ON HERE? Cleaned up as the latest videos seem to be "removed" and wondering if Octave had someone steal his account........
-
The closest you get is the LAM-X1 which has PC->MD transfer for both HiMD and NetMD. Jim had one apart and said it was very cheaply constructed. I would assume that you can get USB->PC transfer for HiMD provided the tracks were not locked to a PC with encryption already.
-
The only out is from the CD. So if you hoping for MD out, tant pis. However, hooking up any Hi-MD portable (by USB) to a PC achieves this. AFAIK there does not exist a HiMD unit with digital out.
-
I'm a bit puzzled why the N7 is apparently a lot smaller than the B7 with identical features. You bought this?
-
Just remember: a. any smudge you make on the white screen back is permanent b. the inverter generates 3000V or so Good luck!
-
Haha I think it's a complete hoax. Today whenever they speed it up it changes from Yanny to Laurel, rather than vice-versa. Yesterday it was the reverse. That tells me someone is playing games with us.

Nothing special about VAIO here. You are better off going to a PC forum, as we don't deal much with these issues here - not the same expertise as MD and other music gear. However, probably the 3kV inverter is dead. For most people this means taking the laptop to an authorised service agent and they swap the screen. But really it's likely the inverter board you have to replace. Not a job for the faint of heart
-
Hmmm if you have to hear high frequencies to get "Yanny" then half the world is pitch-deaf
-
... and consequently a bit overpriced. Did you check Yahoo Jp?
-
Why? The item I looked at was on eBay with willingness to ship worldwide.
-
They double the data rate intermally for the copy, I believe. But it can only be transmitted internally. Not possible with the standard 44.1 sampling frequency of optical (TOSlink) transmission.

Guide to getting your Net MD Walkman working on Windows 10
sfbp replied to MIchael Kachuk's topic in Minidisc
I just played the video. You only need one .inf file (if 32 bits then NETMD052.inf, if 64 bits then NETMD760.inf) There may be an issue with UNinstalling some other inf files depending on what the installer did. Most importantly, you have to disable driver signature enforcement (temporarily) in Windows. This can be done by rebooting in a special way (as it is hard to hit f8 at the right time during Windows 10 boot sequence). It's well documented here. -
Sony PC usb digital audio convertor Model: PCLK-U5
sfbp replied to Junofirst's topic in Technical, Tips, and Tricks
It's going to wait the prescribed number of seconds before dividing the track, I think. If the signal hasn't dropped by the time you press start on the media player then you will get two tracks merged into one. Once the signal drops then you get a track mark. It's at the best of times an iffy process. I think some of the folks here have worked out a special add on to Foobar2000 to play two seconds of silence at the end of each track to accomplish what you want. -

Clarification: are you getting two tracks joined up on the MD? Or are you getting only half the music? -
20lbs is getting up there, but I there exist heavier (probably the 555ES takes the cake at 15.3kg but I have not done an exhaustive check). BTW there is a choice of carriers - so far I always used SAL, if I recall. Fed Ex or UPS will likely be expensive, but DHL sometimes has a cheaper international rate (I speak generally, nothing to do with Buyee).
-
It's for making prerecorded (CD) disks. Probably the 4th (impossible) combination.
-
That's an exceptionally high international shipping fee but isn't that because you bought a very heavy deck? The other fees from Buyee are relatively insignificant based on your given numbers.
-
Agreed - ATRAC only processes data on and off disk.
-
For starters, which one are you using? I presume the RM-MC40ELK..... I'm not sure if it does EVERYTHING, but the common RM-MC35ELK (and probably the RM-MC38ELK) seems to do the basics, I just tested it. There's a brand new in box here. Better be quick though, it's only on a few minutes. No bids, so the guy might relist it.

1. 9.0 or 10.0. You can buy it as part of Video Studio for less than $50; or it comes as part of a LOT of Sony devices such as voice recorders eg ICD-SX750 and similar, also PCM-M10 (the goto recorder for live since it has good onboard mikes and can take a microSD card). You'll need a license key which should come with a new disk or purchased download. 2. When you upload from MD to PC, the file (.oma at least) is always encrypted. WAV are not, but there are two problems with that: a. you lose the metadata so nicely preserved from the MD b. WAV takes a lot of space (longer to backup etc) So, the File Conversion Tool (built into SS) allows the "protection" (essentially locking it to current install of windows on your computer only) to be removed. 3. Use ATRAC Advanced Lossless, high quality, 256kbps (hiSP) lossy part. AAL is an honourable exception to the "no protection, no metadata" rule. So THOSE files do not have to be decrypted/converted. 4. See above. You MUST do it before the next time you do a System Restore, or you will lose the files uploaded since the restore point. (note that VLC and ffmpeg can now render protected files but not in ALL formats) 5. (you wrote 3. but I get it) Decks do not save the place you stopped. Period. Sorry, but that is the specification it seems.

Disc Mode - see the menu on the unit. What is it set to on each unit?

actually Buyee has been on a campaign to reduce its fees. I know - I got all the emails ;(
