mrsimontibbs Posted November 30, 2005 Report Share Posted November 30, 2005 (edited) I just got a portable recorder with MDLP (R900) for the first time and I'm looking for a deck with digital outputs to upload recordings to my Macintosh. Right now I use a JE-510. The JB940 looks good but is hard to find. Are there other decks that would work?Thanks!

KJ_Palmer Posted November 30, 2005 Report Share Posted November 30, 2005 Other decks with MDLP and digital (optical) outputs are (all Sony):MDS-JB980MDS-JE780MDS-JE770MDS-JE640and the 'ultimate' MDLP deckMDS-JA333ES.You may be able to pick some of these up cheaply on ebay, and possibly decks by other manufacturers...

mercury_in_flames Posted November 30, 2005 Report Share Posted November 30, 2005 Don't forget Net md capability from the JB980. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zerodB Posted December 1, 2005 Report Share Posted December 1, 2005 (edited) Don't forget Net md capability from the JB980. And then you can use WinNMD (winnmd.net) to automate the real-time digital "uploads" from deck to PC.

atrain Posted December 1, 2005 Report Share Posted December 1, 2005 And then you can use WinNMD (winnmd.net) to automate the real-time digital "uploads" from deck to PC.although it has been silently upstaged by marcnet's himd renderer that does the same thing for netmd users but is freeware.

zerodB Posted December 3, 2005 Report Share Posted December 3, 2005 (edited) Haven't tried marc's app with NetMD yet, but i'm pretty sure winnmd has some other cool features like freedb disc titling. Anyway, off to try out himd renderer. Edited December 3, 2005 by zerodB Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lingenfr Posted December 3, 2005 Report Share Posted December 3, 2005 (edited) Don't forget Net md capability from the JB980. I believe that the MDS-JE780 is also a NetMD deck with digital/optical out. I have been looking for a 980 or 780, but have yet to find one in the US or anywhere that ships to the US. I have a 'wanted' and 'search' on eBay, but no joy. I would be satisfied with a portable NetMD with optical out if I could find one.I am using WinNMD with my 910 and I have no problem (whatsoever) giving the author $15 for the effort. The FreeDB integration saves a lot of time and potential mistakes. If the author would add ogg vorbis encoding and ID3 tagging, it would do everything I need. Right now, I use WinNMD to rip to wav and then OggdropXPd to encode to ogg (192kbs), tag and create the playlist (M3U). Not too bad.If you are in the US, like me, the 780 can be had from Japan Direct for $438 (plus ship)http://www.japan-direct.com/cartitem.asp?prodid=408or, Audiocubes ($449 w/ free ship) carries the MDS-S500 which also seems to be a NetMD deck with digital/optical outhttp://www.audiocubes.com/product/Sony_MDS...iDisc_Deck.htmlI welcome any feedback from folks on the MDS-S500.
