Can one copy a hi-md disc by placing original disc in the mz-nh600d and connecting via the earphone jack to the line in/mic in of the rh-10 in which you have a blank hi-md disc and then recording in real time? I gather from some of the forum entires that there may be several versions of the rh-10 available in different countries. Is this true? If so, how do I find out whic rh-10 has the capabilities I am after?

Thanks

In principle, yes you can copy MD discs that way. However note - the RH10 can only record in Hi-SP (256k), Hi-LP (64k) and PCM through the line in (ie. not the NetMD formats - SP/LP2/4, mono), so as long as your original is in a HiMD format, yes, you can make a corresponding copy like that. Otherwise you'll have a different format disc from the original.

It is transcoding/recompressing data, and in analogue too, so don't expect perfect copies. Though you'd get a pretty good copy if you simulate a 'line out' on the NH600D by turning the volume right up and turning any sound settings off, and using a good stereo cable.

The European RH10 has a volume cap (which can be removed), but apart from that all RH10 models are functionally the same....
