Well, this isn't exactly a "record" question...it's more of a playback/copy to a CD question. I have a MZ-R900 and bought it primarily to record music using a microphone, which it does. What I want to do is copy the minidisk data to my PC and then burn a CD. PLEASE TELL ME THIS IS POSSIBLE. If not, please tell me the "work around". Thanks much! George gtfrueh@comcast.net

I have a quick question for this forum.... Will the Sony MZ-NF610 record using an external microphone? Looks like there is no MIC input. Or, does this unit need a preamp/microphone arrangement? Thanks. George

Kevin, Thanks much! Do you have a preference for any of the models you mentioned? I never thought of Sharp. How do they compare with Sony. I live in Pennsylvania in the USA. Thanks, George

Greetings, I know there are many posts on this site about recording with a microphone on a Sony Minidisk player. Sorry that I am probably asking the same question for about the 1000th time. However, I really need a simple answer. I bought a Sony MZ-S1 with the understanding that I could buy a microphone and plug it into the LINE IN input for recording live music. I bought the ECM-719 and am having no luck. I'd like to buy a recorder for under $150, but I don't know if it exists. I also don't want to "build" or "experiment" with anything....I just want to plug in the microphone and have it work. I don't need AM/FM/TV/weather, remote controls or anything like that. I'd also like to go to a real store, like Circuit City or Best Buy and purchase it.... in case I have to return it, like I am going to do with the MZ-S1 from Circuit City. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated! Thanks, GTF
