Hi all Just to let you know I have a bunch of Guilfest tickets which takes place from 14th July to 16th July. The single day tickets at £35 and weekend tickets are £85. These tickets are genuine the only reason why they are discounted is because we are playing the festival and get cheaper tickets. Check out www.guilfest.co.uk for more information on the line up. If you are interested just PM me and the day you would like to go. Thanks PS. I wasnt sure where to stick this post. I know people enjoy live music on this forum.

I was reading the comparison chart http://www.minidisc.org/sony_mzr97500_comparison.html It says you can Adjust Level During Recording on the R909 but not on the R900. Is there a hack to make the R900 like the R909?

splumer Definately worth having a go. I attempted the battery box the other night and I managed to build one. Not as neat as GreenMachine, as my shcematic reading skills are not great. However I was very pleased with my attempt, just going to look for a small tinned box of mints to house the creation

Great info on diy mics and battery boxes. Does anyone know where to get the omnidirectional electret condenser mics in the UK, 20Hz to 20Khz? Mouser has them but postage to the UK is far too expensive. I have checked Maplin but the best they have is "50hz to 13Khz".

Thanks guys, I have just got hold of an old sony R3 for £1. For a £1 I thought why not experiment. I will record the band at practice over the next few weeks. If the recording goes well I am sure I will invest in a HiMD player. I cant believe I didnt think of using an MD player to record a year ago. A fool I am

I will check them out. Plus any advice on mics. I have read about GreenMachines mics but is it neccesary for battery box and what does a battery box do?

Hi there I was thinking yesterday that I need something to record our live band practices. I suddenly thought what about MD. I found this site and started to educate myself on what is needed. The live recordings I have listened to, from this site, are really clear and good. I have decided to get an MD player just for live recording. The prices on ebay look good for secondhand ones. From what I gather the sharp are a little bit better for live recording. So does anyone know which is best between the Sharp MD-SR60 or Sharp MD-MT280E ?? Any advice would be great. Cheers Raf
