Yes, I agree the manual would help me alot. My other problem is i did not get a manual with my ebay purchase. I did borrow a HiMD from a friend the 800 version and the display also stuck on MD PC However, I am doing my recordings analog and also a mixer by korg PXR4 that uses an sd card. Then i transfer it to my mac. I also transfer this to my creative speaker system if i want an analog copy. It is just easier to hook up my md and make sound recordings.
