Very cool. When the snow starts falling next month I will make a recording of that. Out here in the boons it's loud enough to be distinguishable on a recording. I would like to see some participation in this, as I'm a big fan of ambient recordings! :happy:

I'm going to sticky this. Thank you for your contribution.

I would go with either the DR7 or the DR420. What's your max budget, however?

How long does the conversion take with this tool compared to SS?

That's a nice charger. I had one for a while [lost it, unfortunately], but it's definitely worth the money. The plug folds in and it's very well made.

You already have a thread on this, here: http://forums.minidisc.org/viewtopic.php?p...ighlight=#31311 Please edit and reply to it accordingly instead of starting new posts. Thanks

lol, I was just giving you a hard time. I'm actually quite fond of this idea, but I must disagree with the heatsink of choice. And no fan? Bah

Doh.

Well, it's become newsworthy. Discussion may continue here: http://forums.minidisc.org/viewtopic.php?t=6248

I know exactly what you mean. Spending money aimlessly on seemingly unnecessary upgrades and such to satisfy your inner geek. I've been doing this lately with computer components, when I should be spending money on things for "our room", as my girlfriend puts it. I've put off buying blinds for the window for months now.. The scorning is harsh, but meh..

Welcome to the forums! 1.) You may want to get the NH900 from datavis.com. It's an American e-tailer that charges $239 for the unit and you could get it shipped to you. 3.) The totalrecorder method is foolproof, but also check out marcnet's method: http://forums.minidisc.org/viewtopic.php?t=6087 4.) Reactive Sounds has some great mics, but also check out our Live Recording forum. Ton of info there. 5.) http://voltageconverters.com/

Welcome to the forums! I would suggest you go with datavis.com. They are reputable and have nearly the same price. Where are you located, anyways?

Where are you planning to buy from? Local or e-tailer?

What is the point? Seriously? :wacky:

Done. Anyway, marc, please just PM me when you want to update the version thread.

What is your maximum budget? Also, check out reactive sounds. They have a banner at the top of the forum [refresh if you don't see it].

It's a nice device. Spend $200 or so on a hacked Muvo² 5GB drive and you're set.

I'm rebuilding the search indexes, so if the forum seems slow for the next couple of hours that is why.

No mono mode exists for the Hi-MD format.

Pretty much. Please refer to these pages: http://minidisc.org/part_Sony_MZ-NH700.html + http://minidisc.org/part_Sony_MZ-NHF800.html

I put this topic in the Music, Electronics + etc [off topic] forum because it is a device that is not Hi-MD. I do this with all posts that speak of electronics that are not related to MD.
