tregate Posted January 25, 2007 Report Share Posted January 25, 2007 Does anyone know of companies/individuals out there who would be willing to convert my MD's (probably only 30) to PC format (WAV) and then burn them to either DVD/CD? Please let me know if someone could help me out or knows of someone who might be willing to do the MD--->PC conversion.Thanks!!Tretmccroskey --at-- yahoo -dot- com Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ferzala Posted January 25, 2007 Report Share Posted January 25, 2007 What format did you originally recorded them? PCM? LP2? LP4 NetMD? If they are PCM or LP2, LP4 I can help, I already do it form myself since I have plenty of MDs with stuff from cassette tapes and vinyl records.

The Low Volta Posted January 26, 2007 Report Share Posted January 26, 2007 @ tregate: best to give a bit more details (like where you live etc, will you send them by post?,...) and perhaps even an incentive (not mandatory of course and I believe there are quite a few ppl here that are willing to help you out without that...but it might still be a nice gesture to offer something cool/nice)@ ferzala: very nice of you to offer to help, but I do not really understand the limitation in bitrates... - if you can upload and convert PCM, that means you have a HiMD and should be able to upload/convert HiSP and HiLP as well- if you can upload and convert LP2 and LP4, that means you have an RH1 and should be able to upload SP as well- if you are talking about realtime rerecording to PC and reconverting, that 1) is something the person would be able to do as well (but perhaps not digitally) and 2) doesn't explain any of the bitrate limitations either (you should at least still have a HiMD as you talk about PCM) or...- you actually meant SP in stead of PCM, you only have a NetMD/MDLP but perhaps with optical out and your offer is even more admirable because you are willing to rerecord all the (30) discs in realtime...I guess you both get my point... specify a bit Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Valder Posted January 26, 2007 Report Share Posted January 26, 2007 TreShot you an email. If you are in the US I might be able to help out.Valder Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ferzala Posted January 26, 2007 Report Share Posted January 26, 2007 In fact, there's no bitrate limitation, I just wanted to know which format they recorded.and it would be good to know if tregate has any specific deadline to get this task done. I'd gladly can do it for him, I have a MDS-JE530 (w/ optical in-outs), NetMD and HiMD, so technically I can do it whatever the bitrate is. I don't have RH yet Do you know how many recorded hours we are talking about?Another thing, do you think they would need any special editing job, divide, title, etc, or it's just matter of putting the tracks from your MDs onto DVD?Regards to you all!Fer@ tregate: best to give a bit more details (like where you live etc, will you send them by post?,...) and perhaps even an incentive (not mandatory of course and I believe there are quite a few ppl here that are willing to help you out without that...but it might still be a nice gesture to offer something cool/nice)@ ferzala: very nice of you to offer to help, but I do not really understand the limitation in bitrates... - if you can upload and convert PCM, that means you have a HiMD and should be able to upload/convert HiSP and HiLP as well- if you can upload and convert LP2 and LP4, that means you have an RH1 and should be able to upload SP as well- if you are talking about realtime rerecording to PC and reconverting, that 1) is something the person would be able to do as well (but perhaps not digitally) and 2) doesn't explain any of the bitrate limitations either (you should at least still have a HiMD as you talk about PCM) or...- you actually meant SP in stead of PCM, you only have a NetMD/MDLP but perhaps with optical out and your offer is even more admirable because you are willing to rerecord all the (30) discs in realtime...I guess you both get my point... specify a bit Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Low Volta Posted January 26, 2007 Report Share Posted January 26, 2007 as I said Ferzala... this was not meant as a critique, just a honest question for clarification (which you did so thanks you for that)so you actually offer (well, given a couple of practical limitations of course) to upload the discs even if it means realtime? I honestly applaud you for being so helpful and generous.but perhaps Valder's RH1 (or someone elses if he's not located near Valder) might effectively be a quicker solution (but this does not diminish your generosity at all as far as I'm concerned)but for now I'll just stay out of this discussion...unless the original poster is located in Belgium Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
raintheory Posted January 26, 2007 Report Share Posted January 26, 2007 ... or if they were NetMD recordings.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KCT Posted February 5, 2007 Report Share Posted February 5, 2007 (edited) Tre,I could help you with that, I just went through that myself with my collection of over 200MD's. I use a fully automated setup doing optical real time playback into an TOS Link Interface card. The wav's are 24bit or any other format you require.If you even have an ASCII plain text file with all the track info, things are a breeze to take care of. PM me if you are interested.I use SP only, MDS-JE510Behringer SCMS stripper (digital only)and/orBehringer SNR2000 noise suppressor (analog only)CheersKCT Edited February 6, 2007 by KCT Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
