    rh1 questions

    there has been some good info posted here, but some poster's statements totally contradict those of other posters.... does anybody definitively know the mac-compatibility situation for the RH1, as well as the backwards compabtibility situation with it, for either mac OR pc? i am ready to buy one as soon as i can ascertain this. your first-hand confirmations would be quite appreciated! :-)

    but legacy formats recorded on older MDs be uploaded on PC, is that correct?

    rh1 questions

    thank you for your excellent reply. now for you, or anyone else who might know, i have a new question. reading some specifications for the rh1 (on the minidisco site), i see this: "Note: Only LinearPCM, Hi-SP and Hi-LP self-recordings made with the MZ-RH1 can be imported using the Hi-MD Music Transfer software." this doesn't make any sense to me, for what would be the purpose of being able to upload old formats if you could only do so if they were recorded on this BRAND NEW device...? is this a mistake? (all my recordings so far have been made on an mzr900) thanks!

    rh1 questions

    hello friends, hearing about the rh1, i am very happy now for this chance to upload all my old minidisc recordings digitally. i have so many old-format MD recordings of my own musical compositions that it would just be impossible to do realtime analog recording of them all into my computer. now that i have sifted through the many threads about this new device, i am still unclear about some things. firstly, i am a mac user -- can someone specifically describe the rh1's uploading compatability with mac computers? is there software available, or has it yet to be released? can i upload legacy formats to mac, or only hi-md? secondly, i am concerned about DRM and copy-protection restrictions making it impossible for me to do much with the files i upload. can someone describe the exact restrictions that are put on the audio that ends up on my computer after uploading? i would like to freely be able to burn it, copy it, etc. at first, looking through the postings here, it seemed this wouldn't be possible -- but then i noticed mentionings of sony removing the DRM restrictions... so i'm rather confused about the matter. thirdly, i would like to get a sense of the stability of the device and its software for uploading. am i at great risk of having my tracks erased randomly? the comments of anyone who has experience with this, would be quite appreciated. if you can help answer any of these questions for me, i would be delighted. i am ready to buy one of these as soon as i am sure it will be practical for me to use. thank you!
