mmilovan Posted December 31, 2004 Report Share Posted December 31, 2004 Just got my new MZ-NH700, and while still trying to understand everything that is featured in this good looking device I recorded 3 tracks about 2 minutes long via mic in. Sounded very nice on headphones, and I tried transfering 1:1 it via USB cable and Total Recorder. What I've experianced is some strange strong digital noises and distorsions, when transfering all of those 3 tracks in a raw. It occured in a middle of second track till, and these disturbing and annoying glitches (they sounded like white noise added to a main signal) last to middle of third track. When I recorded track by track, saving tracks separately everything went just fine, very fine. What can be the cause of these imperfections? Anyone had the same problem? Thanks. BTW, at first glance HiMD is great unit with useless disabled mp3 encoded (why Sony, why), and too slow transfer. Add to that carefull handling during recording, and you'll got interesting device that can be improved within time to come (if Sony want to do so)... But... don't know, it looks like lost battle with 80 GB iPod, I think. Still I like it more than any mp3 player. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jadeclaw Posted January 1, 2005 Report Share Posted January 1, 2005 Are you using the trial version of TotalRecorder? If yes, then this is normal. If you buy it, you'll get an unlimited software, which doesn't insert noises. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
atrain Posted January 2, 2005 Report Share Posted January 2, 2005 maybe try audacity GNU-freeware or for payware better than tr try soundforge Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mmilovan Posted January 2, 2005 Author Report Share Posted January 2, 2005 Many thanks people - that was it. I didn't notice written warning about inserting noise sound when recording on high criteria web page. Now I know. My friend told me that he installed v. 5 of Total Recorder and there is (while on startup of the program itself) message about random noise insertion protection for trial program.

yakko Posted January 2, 2005 Report Share Posted January 2, 2005 What is Total Recorder? I haven't heard of it before. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mmilovan Posted January 2, 2005 Author Report Share Posted January 2, 2005 What is Total Recorder? I haven't heard of it before.It's a proxy between USB connection and driver of your sound card. Actually it is a program that can record anything you want from any source, but in our case it can record (in realtime) digital signal from HiMD before his importation into sound card. You can obtain TR here: www.highcriteria.com BB members, correct me if I've said something wrong. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yakko Posted January 3, 2005 Report Share Posted January 3, 2005 I'll have to give it a shot. Thanks for the answer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

After reading what it does, I don't think I'll use it for anything but with my Hi-MD unit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jadeclaw Posted January 3, 2005 Report Share Posted January 3, 2005 For Hi-MD, the standard version is sufficient. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
