  1. well put . For each individual , it would mean when the desire to reach for something else as your walking out the door takes hold , and halfway down the street you stop , and wax nostalgic while looking at the device in your hand , thinking back to what you used to do . A lot like Love , ......... when the feeling is gone , and the attachment is gone , for whatever the reasons we may conjure , You stand at a crossroad , and have a choice to make .
  2. MD wont die , LP's arent dying , they are being recycled so are CD's ,.... yep RECYCLED .... CD's ---------> to --------> LP's http://blog.makezine.com/archive/2008/05/t...TC-0D6B48984890 "And now you know........the REST of the Story "
  3. I have used MD lens Cleaners , the main thing is to get a GOOD one , not some off brand you have never heard of . Audio Technica , and a couple others , I have used ( Wet Type ) with a Lens solution with good results . Dry Types of off brands may scratch the lens in a worse case , or just smudge whatever dirt is there making the situation worse , Use a Wet Type cleaner and allow dry time before using the MD I run mine twice , Wet 1rst time , then 3 minutes later while just damp not Wet , I run it again to make sure there are no streaks . once every 6 months or year depending on Climate and environment , or if the MD is stored in a case or not . (Mine almost always are )
  4. @ A Whole Lot Never argue with the Russian !!!! he got Science on his side ( I am jealous of your accumen Avrin ) A=S*sqrt((T+0deg Kel)/0deg Kel.))
  5. Actually he doesnt need Sonic Stage at all , Audacity will work better and give him editing ability such as Noise redux , Reverbs , EQ etc . If he is going to go line in Real time recording , Audacity or if he is on a Mac, Final Vinyl or Audacity , or Audio Recorder 3.2 which all have Rec Meters Connect Line out of Md , to Line in on Comp ----> setup audio settings in Computer for Line input to be source , then open Audio program ( mentioned above) In Audio Program preferences , select Line in as Source , then go back to program , turn Monitor on , play sample from MD , set levels , the restart MD , and hit record on Audio program . Save files as separate by pausing Md between songs , and creating new file in Audio Program , or Record the whole thing at one time and split file afterwards . Name and save files , Use Switch from NCH Sound or something similar to convert to MP3 ----------> load your MP3 player . If you use Audacity you will have some tools for "Polishing" the audio to make your band sound better
  6. the 3D is a Dowloader , no Mic or Line inputs , ..............If you want a recorder the 3d is off your list RH1 . for Player , then the 3D is right there .
  7. Which again confirms what I have said all along , ......... For Louder environments to DR1 does it's thing quite well The ONLY gripe , is when you get to Really quiet places the Mic 1 stage is just a little too weak . But functionality and ease of use the DR1 is in the pocket . Rock on Jaeger ,sounds good man
  8. You would need a program like Switch to convert the WMA to MP3 first , then you can play them on the RH1 Or you can record them onto the RH1 from the Line out of the Computer , to the Line in of the RH1 , more time consuming , but better quality and guaranteed compatibility http://www.nch.com.au/switch/
  9. sounds like your 910 battery is bad , My RH1 will go for 6 hours or more on battery recording ,
  10. While cleaning out another area of the house so I can repair it , I found an OLD , Olympus Six , Accordian lens type Camera ,the date on the receipt is " Showa 29 " which is 1954 Original Box , and receipt (all in Japanese ) and the camera still works , it is actually in pretty good shape , It will need to be taken to a pro shop and thoroughly cleaned and lubed , but that is all it will need . The Accordian Pullout for the lens is uncracked , and still supple . The leather case for it is in good shape but the Snaps are rusted , I will try to clean them a link to what I am talking about http://www.cosmonet.org/camera/olympus6_e.html Trades and or Cash , I am interested in , what would I like ?.......... A good condition Sony TCD-5M is high on my list of desires ( dont ask me why , it is just a fixation I have had that never got satisfied) there are other things , but Pm or post here if your interested , I will try to get some pix up tomorrow or so . or if you have Skype Id="strungup" in Japan Get Skype and call me for free. Also in the stuff was some Silver Spoons , a pair , from Mikimoto , one with a Turtle handle and the other with a Crane , also very old , in a small wooden box. an Antique Silver Japanese folding ashtray , a Set of sequentially Larger Silver Sake dishes , three in a Wooden box , I will get a slideshow of this stuff up in a couple days . very cool .
  11. Your on Windows I take it , I helped with a program called "MusEdit " http://www.musedit.com/ Extremely useful and well laid out , The Guitar box , that contains Tuning options , and String options , Chord Layout is what I helped with , Doug is a very cool guy. check it out , it is a Very good way to get everything down plus it imports MIdI and turns it into sheet music or Tabs whichever you prefer .
  12. ouch , I wish I knew how to help , I am on a Mac with an RH1 so I dont have to use SS . But that has to hurt , .......Just one of the Drawbacks from using pen and Paper for the Ideas . By the way , what instrument do you play ?
  13. " Candy is a Good girl alrigggght " The Japanese Janet Jackson ,...........only cuter
  14. Dumm Dumms : Oxymaroon Track Listings 1. PUT ME UNDER 2. MAD @ THE WORLD 3. CHEMICAL THING 4. SHANTY 5. MONTANA 6. HALOGEN 7. AMPHIBIAN 8. AFRAID TO SMILE 9. CRIME WAVE 10. IF I SHOULD FORGET TO BREATHE 11. SET AN EXAMPLE 12. VOODOO DOLL 13. LAST DRINK 14. BOMBS ON BERLIN
  15. Depends on the weather , been raining and cloudy too much to show it off , but when it is sunny outside it is on my Backpack , People are lookin !!!! "sugoi eco na hito da ne" !!!
  16. I can see that Bob had hid coffee this morning
  17. I have several hundred discs , collected over 15 years , dont doubt him/her on the collection issue ,.......... My wife is ALWAYS complaining about my MD's being all over the place . We are in a Two story house , with 6 rooms , ...............and there are MD's in every dang one of em !
  18. I will have to go back to the store and get the model number , soon as I have it I will send a link . It was pretty cool looking to , I have several Batt packs , with USB for my RH1 the two faves are my Filco 4.4 amp lithium ( Talk about Recording time ,, jeesh ) and another has 4 aa's and USB out I have a Targus USB pack 4 AAA's with a built in light , that I would be willing to part with , AAA 's are getting harder to find here in Japan at convenience stores . This Targus pack will also use AND CHARGE 4 rechargeable AAA batts ,
  19. hmmmmm. that is interesting , You say you bought new ? send it back immediately get a replacement , sound like the power regulation circuit is gone in it .
  20. Pull the battery out and make sure it is oriented properly . Also the Battery may be old , even though the unit is unused , Lithiums without usage will go bad from time to time . If the battery from your M200 ( the same thing as RH1) will work in it , then it is a Battery issue Also , What power supply are you using ? If it is a Japan 100 volt supply the 120 US voltage will shut it down from thermal overload ( unless it says 100-240 world voltage on the supply) try those things then come back
  21. I can never get those to work on the Mac , I even tried using a card reader , to transfer the songs then put the card into it , .......no go maybe that will get fixed soon , just for toting a set of guitar lesson material , or language lessons , it would be nice to have one of those cheapies , so I dont have to beat up on my Md's all the time .
  22. Had all 6 kids with parents in my home last night at 10pm , I told the "Kids " ( large 15 year olds ) I have a rule , when you see eye level with me talking stops . Two of you are eye level .................. 6 on 1 and a small skinny 1 at that 13 years old .......... ok , you want go 6 on 1 , you me right here right now , ( in front of one of the fathers),.................. hit my kitchen table so hard the whole house shook , and all 6 of them burst into tears . I told them , ..." I know your face , I have seen you , and I do NOT forget ,........you touch my kid again ................. Kids are a LOT bigger now in Japan than say , just ten years ago , and the western influence is ruining them , gang mentality is creeping in very rapidly . The level of violence is growing at an exponential rate , and the teachers arent paying attention to what is happening . They will leave classes unattended , school ground unattended during breaks , they all gather in the faculty lounge "Taking their leisure " expecting the children to behave according to the Sempai /Kohai relationship .............. That was also years ago , the Sempai status of an older kid only gives them the impetus to bully now . it is really vicious here at times , and especially if your an outsider . thanx for the comments , it is 6:15 am here , so my kid will read them when he gets up . Bob , it is said " Give to the wise one , and he will become wiser still . " and also " The hating of discipline is what resides with the stupid ones " I really appreciate who you are , just want you to know that . tc
  23. And the Sensei's did NOTHING They ganged up on him , in the bathroom , He escaped , and went to the teachers , and they DId ABSOLUTELY NOTHING , even worse , they with held the names of those involved . We called the Police , and I sent email to the Japan Times . The police are stuck because there isnt any serious injury , so they cant arrest the students . And the Teachers are unwilling to do anything to supervise the students , lunch breaks , are open ground , and the foreign student is the prime target . For no other reason than just being there. I have also recorded the whole damn thing on MD , Three teachers came to our home after the police were called , and the Police took statements , all in all about 2 hours worth , And it was captured on a Mic I just bought today , for the purpose of reviewing it for the MDCF Audio Technica AT9904 very small mono mic that runs off the Plugin Power , (a Matched pair would be easily obscure able) 30-18,000 freq response 1.5 Kohm impedance -42db Sensitivity . My AT 822 is -45 db Sensitivity ................. Think about it . http://www.audio-technica.co.jp/products/mic/at9904.html
  24. Sanyo Eneloop , has a new 2 AA USB pack that will work as well , I was looking at it 30 minutes ago , and it states that it will power the PSP , so it will also Power the RH1 using a standard USB cable ,
