worldwise Posted February 13, 2006 Report Share Posted February 13, 2006 Hi< I want to make radio on an apple macintosh ibook! So I need an MD that can record with an external microphone and with a direct output by a usb cable. Is a Net-MD the best choice in my case?Does anyone know if there is also software for the mac osX that makes it able to copy recorded things very fast by usb cable to my computer? (is there a mac version of sonybla(stage?) 3.4?) Please help me out. Thanks, hugs, reggie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
A440 Posted February 13, 2006 Report Share Posted February 13, 2006 (edited) Until recently, minidisc only worked with PCs, not Apple computers. Now, the only MD units that upload to Apple computers are the MZ-M100 and MZ-M10. They're expensive, and they only upload PCM recordings, which are large files. The connection is USB 1.1, which is slow. However, if you are going and making recordings out in the world, you will get as good fidelity as your mic provides. NetMD does not upload at all, to any computer. If you just want to record your voice for a podcast, doesn't your computer have a mic jack? Just get Audacity http://audacity.sourceforge.net/download/and set it to record from your mic jack and you're good to go.
