Blankdisc?

I've done my fair share of stealth taping over the last year and a half, and I've never had this problem before...

...Last night, at my high school's talent show, a few friends of mine had bands playing, so I figured that because there is no soundboard or recording hook-ups, that I would tape from the audience and give them copies. Well there were two sets, split up by an intermission. I taped both sets with their own disc. So I get home to listen to them, first one came out fine, but I popped the second one in and it read "Blankdisc." I couldn't believe this, as I looked at the screen to see it do the Data Save and TOC Edit. This poses a HUGE problem to me as I'm going to be doing some stealth taping next week on some high profile acts.

ANY comments or suggestions are welcomed.

Thanks very much,

David

You may be able to have your disc recovered. If you're sure that you actually recorded the second show, chances are that it's still on your disc. The TOC is just messed up and rese' to 'blank disc' most likely because the table of contents got messed up while saving the data from your show. Look around minidisc.org for links on TOC Cloning and Disc Recovery. You may be able to find someone (at a radio station, on this message board) that has a deck capable of TOC cloning and your recording can be recovered unless you recorded in Hi-MD mode: no TOC cloning yet). This worked for me with an important recording I had. Here, check this out...
