^M0rk^ Posted May 30, 2006 Report Share Posted May 30, 2006 Ok. Now I've got all these analog recordings made with my Hi-MDs. After doingsome editing with the units (editing titles, marking on and off), I connectthe unit to my Sonicstage and do some more title editing (no transfers to thepc... the title editing goes straight into the minidisc via usb). After this,I can no longer edit the tracks on my unit. No more marks off/on, etc.How can I get my editing back? I still have to split and merge some tracks! :/thanks for the helpMork Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bobt Posted May 31, 2006 Report Share Posted May 31, 2006 It's generally accepted that you do minimal to no editing on the unit before upload, then edit on the computer. What version of Sonic Stage are you running, should be minimum 3.4, 3.4 is better. and 4.o has just been released.Good luck,Bob Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
A440 Posted May 31, 2006 Report Share Posted May 31, 2006 Just one guess, but are you using very long titles? It's possible that you've filled the memory of the unit. Otherwise, it may just be one more quirk of SonicStage and MD. Do upgrade to SonicStage 3.4 as soon as possible if you're not already using it. I have had no trouble in SonicStage 3.4 with uploading tracks that have been separated or joined with track marks edited on the unit. In previous versions of SonicStage, that used to guarantee disaster. I don't do much titling--just the Group name before I upload--so I can't offer you any experience with the problem you're having. BobT is right: the best way to edit files is to upload them first and then either use SonicStage to title, combine and divide them (both Combine and Divide are under Edit), or just convert them to .wav and use any sound editor like Audacity. Before playing with the tracks on this disc any more, upload them so you'll have a copy. That's the most important thing. If you have trouble uploading then record them in realtime--the best way is with SonicStage and TotalRecorder (see Uploading FAQ). Then edit them in SonicStage and download them onto a fresh disc.

When I dothat, no editing is possible for me with the MZ- units. That is noproblem as far as title editing is concerned (with SonicStage isobviously more user-friendly) but if I wish to do further edit workon the live recording using marks on/off, I can no longer do that.puzzled,^M0rk^ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
