rmer Posted September 25, 2007 Report Share Posted September 25, 2007 First of all big "Hello!" to everyone here! I don't know if I put this in right column.. Something strange happen to me yesterday.. Didn't use my MD recorders for a month, so deceided to record something with my mics (Len's CoreSounds LCBs).. The mics work fine and I started recording using MZ-N707 with some random MD74min and everything was fine, got those digi "leds" pumping:) and when I pressed stop button to save my data, also everything was ok, firstly got the usual message: Saving Data and then TOC Edit... But when I tried to play the recorded data then started the problems.. either couldnt play it, like with CDs when they don't want to start reproducing and just 00:00, and then 00:02 after 15 seconds or so, but no sound at all... then I started recording again and again using different MD types from TDK and Sony and everytime I finished the messages were OK, like all is fine but usually after pressing play button and everytime after ejecting the disc and putting it again in i would get the message: BLANKDISC ?????? Firstly, I was thinking maybe there is problem with MD media, then with this recorder, MZ-N707, then I tried it all with MZ-R700 and all the MDs and again the same ????? Maybe someone knows what is happening... Thanks in advance! r. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is happening more frequently now with these older units. It is repairable with some soldering skills... There's a post about it here somewhere.
