  1. I recently bought an MZ-RH910, and only have a Mac. I managed to install Virtual PC and Windows 2000 to run the Sonic Stage software, which works -- BUT: yesterday it took _SEVEN HOURS_ to upload about 20 minutes of PCM recording! And this is with a new 1.5 GHz G4 PowerBook. Insane! Can anyone help? There must be a better way to get files in digitally! Buying a new, more expensive MD recorder is out of the question -- if I had $400-500 to spend (total) then I would not have settled for 16-bit recording. thanks for your efforts, Ernst
  2. I bought an MZ-RH910 and had the same problem almost immediately -- it died with the "no disc" error. The day it arrived, I made a series of recordings successfully using a mic, and played them back. No problem. Then later I put in a new disc and went out to a friend's concert, and recorded some of it as another test, again with microphones (Core Sound binaurals). After pressing stop, it got stuck in "data save" mode for several minutes, and thereafter I got the "no disc" error, no matter what disc I put in (including the one I had recorded on successfully earlier). The only thing I can think of that may have caused this problem -- not that it should have! -- was that I unplugged the mics during the "data save" process. Since you say that your error happened when you turned your computer on, this supports my hypothesis that the unit is somehow sensitive to changes in electrical levels or something like that -- in my case with the battery-powered mics, in your case with the USB power. Just a hypothesis; I'm far from an expert in these things. I returned mine for a new unit, and my new unit is working fine. But now I'm making sure not to unplug the mics until after the data is all saved! Ernst
  3. So, please help me to understand this correctly. I use a Mac and am very interested in Hi-MD. If I record using a microphone onto a Hi-MD recorder, uncompressed .wav format, can I then connect it to my Mac (OS X) and drag and drop the audio from the MD to the Mac? No special software necessary? (note: I don't care about getting audio from the Mac to the MD, just from the MD to the Mac.) Thanks very much! Ernst
