cvdevol Posted December 21, 2006 Report Share Posted December 21, 2006 Paid $300 from musiciansfriend.comPros:Records WAV files.Great recording quality, of course.A very good microphone was includedTiny size, very useful and aesthetically really coolPlays back mp3s (but see cons)Cons:A metal casing would have been nice. Even my old MZN505 had one, and it was only $100!!The LCD is hard to read except in rather bright light. A backlighting button would have been nice.The screw-on external battery pack is clunky and cheap. Too bad it's really needed sometimes.Hi-MD 48 kbps recording would have been nice. This unit only supports 256 and 64 kbps, but 48 kbps would be good for voice recordings, speeches, lectures etc.Playback of mp3s is limited to files with 44.1 kHz sample rate. A serious waste of file size if you want to playback low fidelity (i.e. voice, am radio) recordings.USB transfers are as slow as I remember from my old MZN505.But:I needed it, so I paid for it. It works great. I'm glad I bought it and I'd do it again.Opinion subject to change if unit craps out within an unreasonably short time!So when are the 2GB-capacity minidiscs coming out? ;-) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sparda Posted December 22, 2006 Report Share Posted December 22, 2006 I also wish they would come out with higher capacity Hi-MD discs. Lol, I can dream but I would love a Blu-ray Hi-MD unit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mdmania Posted December 22, 2006 Report Share Posted December 22, 2006 and also uploading of legacy SP, but I guess if this was your first minidisc recorder it wouldn't matter. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The included microphone was also a selling point. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even ebay. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think you are referring to the RH1, the only unit capable of uploading legacy MDs. Correct me if I'm wrong though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
