Hi-md Data Recovery

For an once-a-lifetime event, I bought a brand new Sony MZ-NH1 for live recording. The accessories were: Sony ECM719 microphone, Sony 74 min. standard disc. Tested everything before the event, all worked fine. During the event, I selected PCM mode for best sound quality. The red LED flashed as normal. After finished the recording, MZ-NH1 displayes "no track". I retested everythings, all work fine. God!

1) Does the recorder have intermittent problems?

2) What is the normal operation procedure for a live recording other than that the Sony manual says? Did I miss somethings?

3) Is (was) there anything ever recorded on the disc? If so, how can I verify it?

4) Is there any way I can recover the data?

Help!!!

1) I don't know. I'd have to test yours to find out.

2) It's not likely that you missed anything, assuming that you were aware that in PCM mode an MD74 only holds about 25 minutes of audio.

3 and 4) No real ideas there. The only suggestion I can make is to contact Sony and ask if they have a data recovery service for HiMD. Private companies exist that do this for standard MDs, but since there is no currently known procedure for recovering HiMD audio, and thanks to DRM and the nature of how HiMD works, it's possible that there may never be a recovery process that anyone other than Sony can use.
