Metric Only

So my recordings from 1990s are safely converted then.

Does the RH1 and sonic stage really convert SP recordings to LP2?! I bought the RH1 a few years ago to transfer all of my recordings to WAV since MD was on the decline. I spent a year transferring albums. That took an enormous time to convert. I sure would be disapointed if the quality suffered. You all are right about the MZ-R50 and the RH1. Speaking of the MZ-R50. That was the best portable recorder ever. I managed to get one with the firmware that let you turn off SCMS.

I have a wall of discontinued formats. MD will go up there soon, next to DAT.

Okay anyone else out there using a non-cd source going to the Hi_md unit via digital cable and having issue with track marks?

well...the changes that I made "all off" and other combinations resulted in the same problem (track marks not passed). Track marks are not accepted from a non-CD source. I give up. My CD recorder accepts the track marks without issue. I will need to split my content into 80 minute sections. Thanks

Thanks. I will give it a try. My project has DATs all over the place. I need to get them on to my computer. I hope this works. Manually tracking on my computer sucks. Thanks again.

Hey there. I have been using MD since 1997. I have a MZ-M200 and I cannot seem to get it to work with a Sony PCM-R300 (Digital Audio Tape). Here is the issue. I am trying to offload several recordings made on DAT. I have my SPDIF (optical) connection made from the DAT to the MZ-M200. No issues there. I can record normally, but I am not getting automatic track marks! I cannot even manually insert them during the recording. All of the other MD units that I have can take the relayed track mark info and place a track mark when it is passed. I am using digital sync and track marks are turned on. Time mark is off. SCMS is 00 (Allow all copies). I sure would like to use the MZ-M200 so that I have PCM rather than having to use some of my old style MD units. Any advice with passing track marks? This is driving me crazy. Any help is certainly appreciated. I can record these DATS to CD using my CD-recorder, but I do not want to do that since I am dealing with 90 minute recordings. BTW the CD recorder takes the track marks! Frustrating...
