Freaky experience

[reefbeef]

OK, so I'm heading out on my lunch break at work today. I grab my NH1 and take out the disc I was listening to which was a recording of my gig last night. I pop in a different disc of a live recording of a concert by my favorite musician. Needless to say, it is a highly valued disc. I'm riding down in the elevator and press play. All of a sudden I hear the beginning of the disc that I just took out!?! Even scarier is the fact that it's my voice (I stated the recording settings into the mic before the performance started).

I pressed stop and ejected the disc, reinserted and pressed play. It played correctly this time...phew.

Has this ever happened to anyone? The only explanation I can gather is that the 1st disc was stored in some buffer of some sort...but I don't know the science behind it.

Some backround info to help solve the mystery:

1. The 1st disc was a classic MD recorded in Hi-SP

2. The 2nd disc was a Hi-MD recorded in PCM.

3. I was sober

===================================

Ha ha, 3. I was sober

I like that clarification You R funny

But NOW on dE serious note - is it possible that dE "G" force on elevator going down was responsible for ghostly / time travel play back ??

Or maybe was A reminder that this gig , /that particular tune\ will be "the ONE" to make it for You and in very near future We will use our MD recorders to stealth record Your gigs, aNd "illegally" share Your songs on the net .

I wish that for U ==>> to Make it !!!

P.S. -- what kind of music U-R playing ??

I've heard of this,it isnt uncommon, nothing to worry about.

Sounds like a [benign] bug in the buffering used by g-shock protection, to me.

[atrain]

it's happened to me & others on the board before. don't be too concerned it'll cause no damage to the disc or unit.

... sounds like it it's probably the Quickmode. That function keeps the buffer fresh to play "immediately" on play being pressed. Otherwise, the buffer will empty and require filling which requires the disc to spin up.

Thanks everyone...

I was thinking more about it, and yeah, it must have been the anti-shock buffer...thanks Dex.
