Trying to tansfer a recorded song BACK into sonic stage with no luck

[7thPeer]

Greetings,

I'm new here although I've owned my MD player for eight years and I have a technical question I'm hoping someone here might be able to help me with. I have a great deal of music still on vinyl and have been trying to find a way to get that music on to my hard drive so that I can make a CD. My father has a combo CD/MD deck unit and a turntable, I am able to record the record selection onto a minidisc, I have a program at home called GOLDWAVE and one of it's abilities is to record what the computer is hearing and in the past I have been able to play a video on youtube and record the music portion onto my hard drive. That was the idea with the minidisc, only it won't record, so I tried transfering the song back into the "My Library" section and I keep getting an error message to the effect of "Unable to transfer due to the fact that the trac was recorded by the MD player, or with an incompatible program".

PLEASE! Can anyone here give me a pointer on how to do this? Otherwise I don't know how I'm going to get this track onto the hard drive.

Thanx,

Hi, you can't use Sonicstage to upload your recordings to a computer unless they were either made on a Hi-MD recorder in Hi-MD mode or you have an MZ-RH1/M200, which doesn't appear to be the case. You can still record to the hard drive in realtime with software as long as it's set up to record from the line in.

Many of us use Audacity, but Goldwave is probably just as good. See this link for our handy uploading guide (Net-MD part). Hope that helps.

Take the minidisc out of the picture. Record from the turntable into Goldwave.

If your computer doesn't have a line-in jack--many now have just mic-in, which is noisy--then get a Griffin iMic, which gives you a line-in jack via a USB port.
