PlanetEarth Posted October 4, 2004 Report Share Posted October 4, 2004 Question?: When Transferring from the computer how is it possible to transfer a WAV(CD WAV rip) onto Hi-MD without having it get converted to Atrac3, sonicstage doesn't give that option. Is PCM recording only available when recording on the recorder? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sxc Posted October 4, 2004 Report Share Posted October 4, 2004 Use SonicStage 2.1 or 2.2 - you can get it from www.connect.com When you rip a CD in SS, you get the choice to rip to OpenMG Audio PCM. Then you get WAV quality and it won't be compressed when transferred to Hi-MD. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The_Stamp Posted October 4, 2004 Report Share Posted October 4, 2004 really? i didn't see that in the list of updates. I guess im blind. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mutant1345 Posted October 5, 2004 Report Share Posted October 5, 2004 well it wasnt in the list of updates its been possible since 2.0...i didnt reelize this either untill a month or so ago... but yes it is possible although i am curious why you cant rip this directly through Simple Burner since its a near direct rip it would seem resonable to have a choice to rip in cd quality right from a CD but i guess that the top of the line sony software developers are too good to think of a way to do that...

Syrius Posted October 6, 2004 Report Share Posted October 6, 2004 Ok. Let me see if I understand. You can rip a CD to OMG PCM, and then transfer that PCM to HI-MD using the USB cord, at high speed? And the MD recording format is true PCM, with DRM? (I can live with that.) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sxc Posted October 6, 2004 Report Share Posted October 6, 2004 Yes that's true. You can even record directly on the MD in PCM quality using Optical in and transfer that back to the PC. Once it's on the PC, you won't be able to do anything with it apart from transfer it to other MDs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Syrius Posted October 7, 2004 Report Share Posted October 7, 2004 Greatness! Marc, if you are reading this, know that your program is the sole reason I have decided to purchase a Hi-MD unit this Christmas. Let freedom ring. Erm, play.

After only knowing about MD for 2 weeks and having my (used-from ebay) N505 for 1 week, I'm ready to upgrade to Hi-MD solely based on the great capabilities that marcnet's program adds to the MD platform. :love: MD :love: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
