humbly accepted , the ways of this planet still , I yet do not know completely . Sadness , yes I do feel , the Strength of the Source with this technologie , important is is with me .

Hey Garcou here is Sony Asia , direct ... the ecatalouges are going to show leftover stock, this is what they are actually carrying in the Walkman series just a thought you will notice there are NO MD's listed here at all http://www.sony-asia.com/productcategory/p...site=hp_en_AP_i

Go to preferenes iniTunes , klik Advanced , then you see " General, Importing and Burning " three buttons. To directly get mp3 ( I know this is an odd way ) but select in the Burning prefs MP3 CD , then close and restart iTunes , find the songs you want make a Playlist with those songs , and burn them to cd as MP3's , then from the CD you can drag them straight to your mp3 player

500 WATTS AHHHHHHHHHGGGGG " Doctor My Eyes .......Blinded By the Light ......... Future so Bright ,..gotta wear Shades, ...... now / Go Get yourself some Cheap Sunglasses" du du dun dun dudun DAAAAAAA!!!!

wow , " all hands meeeting , 20 people told they get the boot " MD is right behind it .wont be long now " Nurse take the pulse " ...." Doctor ,. I can barely feel it , may I borrow the stethoscope?" " Hmmm this isnt looking good , better call the Family members , "

ahhh m4p , I miss read , it does m4a just fine I converted Andreas Vollenveider from m4a , to mp3 yesterday for my (Very old 128 mb) mp3 player why did you convert to m4p in the first place ? just curious

Hey Mauri . the 58 db S/N ratio means that if you have that much noise at the source , it will be on your recording , I am a recording engineer , At ANY point before the recording medium , wherever noise is generated it will be added to and multiplied by the next stage and its noise . So if the mics are Quiet but the preamp is noisy = You have noise If the Mics are noisy and the pream is quiet -= You have noise A Good preamp , and Good Mics = Less Noise Any noise before the recorder is captured By the recorder . I sent you a link to the Rolls MX34 . Did you read the specs on it ? 110 db S/N ratio and it will supply 18 volts Phantom for much nicer kind of mic which you might possibly obtain in the future

Switch is the one prog that doesnt do so much of that , I have used it for years , yes it will ask you to by Plus , but after you configure the preferences there are no more nags. Plus at 772 kb its the lightest download for a converter update , I just two minutes ago downloaded the 1.13 Switch for Mac , and there is absolutely NO nag in it whatsoever , there are however , links to each program under the help menu . plus they have added command line controls for windoze users , a new GUI ( looks nice to) very straightforward options , and conversion formats galore

Switch from NCH , it's a freebie http://www.nch.com.au/switch/plus.html "Plus" you have to pay for but Switch basic is free and works good , both Mac and Windoze flavored I am on a Mac , and have the latest iTunes with iPhone support , When you go to preferences , klik the advanced tab , then choose the importing tab , you will see a dropdown and MP3 is among the choices with variable bitrates . So recheck your settings.

And by the way , Welcome to MDCF

The question will be what are the availabilty of Blank MD's where you are , The Zoom isnt out yet , not till the end of August , I am still waiting on mine iRiver I havent used so I cant say , but it would give direct access to you computer If you can see getting Blank MD's in quantity , I would go for the MD , if not The Zoom , but since the Zoom isnt out yet iRiver ....... If you want a good portable preamp get a Rolls MX34 http://www.rolls.com/products/mx34.php The MMadness box , indicated a 58db s/n ratio , so expect some hiss /noise from it

There is a Blurb on Cnet about the b100 it is out in the UK already in certain places , and getting pretty good marks But the CNET guys were REAALY bashing SONIC STage , I quote " It's about damn time they decided to ditch that Most ignomious worst ever written peaice of software forced on Mankind " Ouch

It isnt a software issue , it is the UNit , That model MD will only download not upload , to upload you will need an RH1 /M200 that will (On windows anyway ) upload what we call "Legacy recordings" Legacy means pre HiMd ( a nice way of saying old ) quite a few of the guys here have you beat b a few hundred discs ( including me ) over 300 ,I lost count about 4 years ago ) If you dont mind taking a little time and doing it the slow boat to china way , here is the solution. Audacity , ...... works like a Tape rcorder for you computer , exept it has STUFF built it , llike Levels Meters both in /out , gain controls , editing ability , effects proccessing (So you can make those recording of yourself sound presentable to someone else!) Just set your MD to line level output , connect to your soundcard with and 1/8" stereo cable and real time record into the computer ( if you have an external drive you can set Audacity to use that and put everything there) Be sure to read the help files and I beleive there are some tutorials available online for Audacity . This program has been around a looong tome is made by recording people and musicians who just also happen to be programming savvy , no bugs , no viruses , no spyware ) http://audacity.sourceforge.net The other way is to drop the Money on an RH1 ( which ae getting rarer by the second)

That was well spoken

Yeah , it isnt available here in Japan , I looked on the Asia site .....nothing no md at all

Sometimes the install doesnt register completely , and yes reinstall is needed , I think that was even mentioned on SOny's site somewhere ,under know isssues.

that isnt new , it is the RH1 , RH and M200 are the same machine . I noticed they added the "Pro" moniker to it At Sony Asia , MD isn even listen any more , not even Blanks , If you look at Sony Asia , They have CD/Cassette Players, Voice recorders , but no MD

are you using Version 2 of MD transfer?

Damn..... thought I had it . I guess old and wrinkled isnt "IN " anymore!

I promised her a Porsche .

That's it ,..... Lower the flags to half mast . what an amazing journey , to see the first one , all the way to the last one , watching the struggle for acceptance . Requiem ,for a freind . MD will always be my favorite , and I will play and Record on them untill the cannot take a disc any longer . I will scour the Hardoffs in Japan , to collect the rejected of modern technology , just to let them play one more disc.

definately Option #1

Audacity has been much improved recently , and in the effects are High Pass filters with selectable frequency shifts , noise reduction etc , a lot of new processing , support for Nyquist filters , AU, and other plugins ... and it FREEEEEEEE http://audacity.sourceforge.net

Headphone extension cable from , Cicuit Silly , Not so Best Buy , Radio Slack , whatever electronics shop is near you , you will have choices in quality . It is the same cable . My favorite main standby mic , always available ,in my backpack , on the monpod , hung out the window.....etc etc etc , is the Audio Technica AT-822 second in line is an Older Sony ECM 959a

I paid 8,900 yen . It is a little quirky , if you dont know how to use one , but if you have the artist touch (I never could draw very well) it is way cool I like it , just have to get use to using a Tablet (This is my first one) I bought it for doing additions to files for guitar students , drawing hand positions , Chord shapes , or writing chord names , side notes , but you easily get side tracked and just start doodling depending on the program your using it with, I found a freebie for Mac called "Seashore" that is like "Paint" for windows only a lot more control brushes , shading even finger smudging ( like you would do with a pencil on paper. Up above the Puprle bird was my first doodle , (kinda had a Phoenix thing in mind)
