iainm Posted February 3, 2005 Report Share Posted February 3, 2005 Hello forum!I'm new here but I've poked around through many of the messages already posted and could not find the answer to my question. I recently recorded for a friend his band using a Denon Professional Dual Deck Minidisc recorder to which I no longer have access to. Thinking I could get this data off the MD and onto a computer using my girlfriend's new Hi-MD Recorder (sony model MZ-NH700). I can listen to the disc and it appears to be in regular 'MD' format stereo.When I go into sonic stage and try to transfer the file back (although I've since discovered that may be a bad idea?) it tells me it was put on the disc by another computer and that I can not remove it. I'm using sonic stage 2.1.02... How do I get the music off now? I tried figuring out how to play the music iside sonic stage and record the digital feed on USB that people have been talking abuot in other messages -- I coudln't figure that one out but maybe that is because my sound card doesn't have a 'WAVE" option in the record volume settings.Anyway, can anyone help me out?thanks,Iain.

I don't think there is any way you can digitally transfer music OFF of a NetMD (normal MD) formatted disc. The best you can do is record using the Line In on your computer which may or may not sound too great.An alternative, if you can swing it somehow, is to use a minidisc deck with optical out, plug it into an optical in on a HiMD unit, and record the old MD to a new HiMD disc in PCM mode. Then you can go into Soundstage and play the file and record it using TotalRecorder (Awesome little program! ).Hopefully I'm wrong and there's an easier way (As I'd love to get stuff I recorded on normal MDs off digitally using my HiMD unit)...
