tcsta Posted November 17, 2005 Report Share Posted November 17, 2005 Hello all. I've been using MD for 9 years, and I've just found the forum. Oh well, better late than never...My main use for MD is in the car. Right now I have a Blaupunkt MD-70. The problem is the transfer of music from my computer to MD - it's way to slow and clumsy. This shouldn't be a problem now with HI-MD, but the Blaupunkt only recognizes the original MD format (not even MDLP). I haven't been able to find a straight answer on the transfer spped of a HI-MD unit in standard format, but I assume it is at 1x or close to it. Any suggestions? The highest spped I have not is 4x, obtained by PC-to-home deck (MXD -D40)-to-MD. This is a pain when I only want a few new songs.What I need: high transfer rate; standard format replayabilityThanks for any help! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bobt Posted November 18, 2005 Report Share Posted November 18, 2005 If you have a first generation you can record in "legacy" format, which is old school, and it is mauch faster than 1 to 1, maybe 2 to 3 minutes for a cd. If you have a second generation you can record through sonic stage in a ducked up legacy format.My recommendation, get a first generation unit.WelcomeBob Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pata2001 Posted November 18, 2005 Report Share Posted November 18, 2005 1st gen HiMD units can only record to real SP mode MD in real-time via optical (1 to 1). Definitely NOT 2-3 minutes a CD. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
