Wanted: Cheap Md Recorder

I'd look on eBay, and be sure to use the --> Minidisc.org Equipment Browser to compare between models.

Don't forget to check out the --> Classifieds Section here periodically for private sales.

Make sure to avoid models with the 'D' designation ["downloader"] as part of their model number, as these do not have line or mic inputs, rendering them completely useless for recording purposes.

I would suggest using HiMD, as you can upload your recordings [within certain limitations] if you have a Windows PC [not linux and not Mac]. Also check out the --> HiMD Uploading FAQ and --> its equivalent for MD/NetMD to be sure you know what methods are available for getting your recordings off the media once you've made them.

As an aside, I would suggest that if you're on a budget, the NHF-800 or NH-700 [look them up in the equipment browser for more info] would be the best "budget" recorders available, as they support HiMD modes as well as recording to legacy MDs if you need backward-compatibility. They are somewhat difficult to find now as they are last year's models, but if you dig you should be able to find them still.

Depending on where you are, the NH900 is also available at great prices [this seems to be the case mostly in the UK].

Thanks dex. I have indeed been searching ebay, and using the equipment browser to decode it all. And yes, I'm avoiding "D" models like the plague. All advice I learned from minidisc.org!

I just thought I'd shake the tree slightly, see if people had old models they'd like to sell. Figure people reading the minidisc.org classifeds would take better care of their stuff than the average ebay-er, and might want to bundle old mikes, too. Is that kosher? I noticed other people had Wanted ads, so I figured it was okay.

Hi!

If you haven't found yet, I too have a MZ-N707 in silver which I could sell to you. I was attached to it until now, because I think it kind of looks like the older units in the Noir anime series. Eventually, I guess I have to let it go.

I used it to record class lectures. I still have all the accessories except maybe earphones, but I guess you already have some (the one included in the box weren't that good anyway) and I have all the car accessories. How much do you wish to pay?

I'm near Montreal, Canada.
