kino170878 Posted April 30, 2007 Report Share Posted April 30, 2007 I doubt very much this is possible. Sony atrac format is proprietory, has been for years. I think hi-md players can play back mp3, but there currently is no convenient way to copy atrac to mp3 except for real time recording.

Richard Posted April 30, 2007 Report Share Posted April 30, 2007 Are your Atrac tracks in legacy format or Atrac3 plus? You may want to check out Hi-MD renderer from our downloads section. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sony_Fan Posted May 1, 2007 Report Share Posted May 1, 2007 Assuming your tracks are in ATRAC3plus format, you can convert those to wav files, then convert the wav files to MP3. You would have to use a high bitrate to conserve as much sound quality as possible. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
A440 Posted May 1, 2007 Report Share Posted May 1, 2007 Are your Atrac files on a minidisc? Or in your computer as My Library in SonicStage? Hi-MD Renderer, as noted above, can covert the My Library tracks directly, without going via .wav. On a disc....you're going to have to get them off the disc with MZ-RH1. Or record them in realtime out of the headphone jack. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sparky191 Posted May 7, 2007 Report Share Posted May 7, 2007 (edited) Just a quicky,Can anyone recommend a software that can competently convert my atrac recordings into mp3 format?Many thanks,A440 has said it already. AFAIK these are the only ways. 1) On a MD > RH1 > SonicStage Library (keeps tags)2) On a MD > Other HiMD analog recording > SonicStage Library (no tags)3) SonicStage Library > SonicStage or Hi-MD Renderer > WAV (no tags)4) SonicStage Library> Hi-MD Renderer > MP3/FLAC (with tags)So option 1 with 4 is the best (assuming they are tagged already) Edited May 7, 2007 by Sparky191 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
