emptyzero Posted October 15, 2004 Report Share Posted October 15, 2004 cold as hell when I took it out of the package. would being outside in the cold like that damage the battery or another other components? I know I'm being paranoid but it's just cause I'm a proud new owner : ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skmetal07 Posted October 15, 2004 Report Share Posted October 15, 2004 dont turn it on though, unless u did already! i left my mt-15 in the cold and the optical block froze and wouldn't move, stripping the fragile gears inside of it!! oh how i miss it so Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Christopher Posted October 15, 2004 Report Share Posted October 15, 2004 Hm, well the NH1 manual states that the unit should be operated between 41 - 95F. They don't recommend anything lower or higher than that, but you must take into accord that the NH1 was in a box within a box in packaging and was probably fine. Obviously, you've had sufficent time now to play with it, is it ok? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
emptyzero Posted October 16, 2004 Author Report Share Posted October 16, 2004 honestly, I have no discs (music or live recordings) to play in it yet :wacky: I have the 1gb disc that it came with, saving it for explosions in the sky on saturday or the blood brothers on sunday. Haven't even charged it up to play with it yet....I let my buddy keep the few md masters I have recorded because they were made with his rig....so yeah I'm the lamer with a new unit and nothing to play on it hah. Should I charge it up and play with it?...I think I'll wait til I get a pack of 80min MDs saturday to do a lot of playing with it. I'm confident it's not damaged...just pissed ups left ~$400 worth of electronics on my door step in a plastic bag because it had began to drizzle! I need to look into places in minneapolis/st paul that sell the 1gb discs... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
A440 Posted October 16, 2004 Report Share Posted October 16, 2004 Take that 1GB disc to Explosions in the Sky and record the set in PCM! Should come out extremely well. And then you can use Marcnet's software to upload and CD it. If you can't find a retailer that has the big discs, Circuit City online sells the 1GB discs for usual $6.99 plus tax--free shipping over $25--and got them to me in 3 days.

emptyzero Posted October 16, 2004 Author Report Share Posted October 16, 2004 Sonic Studios DSM-6S/L --> PA-6LC2 pre-amp --> Sony MZ-NH1 Hi-MD I've finally arrived! I'm going to call some local Circuit City stores and see if they carry them, if that's the case I'll get some today. I have it charged up...but that's about it for now.

Latexxx Posted October 16, 2004 Report Share Posted October 16, 2004 cold as hell when I took it out of the package. would being outside in the cold like that damage the battery or another other components? I know I'm being paranoid but it's just cause I'm a proud new owner : )I assume that you mean 30 fahrenheits. That's nothing. Most of my gear has been in my pocket in -20 C weather (-4 fahrenheit) and nothing has happened. Plastic cables do become weaker but that isn't really serious because I don't use my über-expensive Sennheisers when it's so cold. :grin: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
