Guest Anonymous Posted January 20, 2003 Report Share Posted January 20, 2003 And it's worth its weight in GOLD! Fixed level non-eq line output? I've lost count of the times I'ce screamed across the room to adjust volume - now I can just assume the vol. is correct on my amp. And the M-Timer will, I know, save a dinner or two from burning in the future. Excellent Thx! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Anonymous Posted January 21, 2003 Report Share Posted January 21, 2003 yeh, 707 works with v. 1.400. PGM doesnt work tho, not too sure about MIC sensitivity either, but have yet to try in proper environment. It shoud affect your button config. as long as you dont change any values you shouldnt...

Guest Anonymous Posted January 27, 2003 Report Share Posted January 27, 2003 Anyone dare to try any physical hacks on their MZ-r700? eg adding the necassary power mod for personal disc memory to work adding a syncro rec switch adding the sound button off the remote (or any other u fancy) buying the flat sony rechargable battery, hacking the plastic back off with it's ugly bulge and screwing on a tidy aluminium cover even buying a wrecked 900 off ebay and transferring the guts of your 700 into its sleek case. there were a few going cheap last week but i missed em it's all out there! i've been thinking alot about it, just need someone with the knowledge of the electrics. Think about it, you could get better than anyones, not what you get but what you WANT. Anyone already done something simalar? how closely related are the 900 and 700? opinions please!

Guest Anonymous Posted January 29, 2003 Report Share Posted January 29, 2003 I'm very interesed in electronic hacking.. Adding sound button in the remote does not work :/ I think u need a remote with LCD, that's the key Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Anonymous Posted January 29, 2003 Report Share Posted January 29, 2003 it may be that you just need the lcd to see what's going on and you can adjust the setting by following the instrucions exactly. could be. What i really really want i discover today is to modify it to produce a full line level output when required, it's far too quiet when plugged into my stereo. Not entirely sure what's required to achieve this end, how does the 900 manage it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Anonymous Posted January 31, 2003 Report Share Posted January 31, 2003 Yeah, I know. I tried to put a resistor to simulate a sound buttom in remote connector and it didn't work.

Guest Anonymous Posted February 3, 2003 Report Share Posted February 3, 2003 i did the hack and i don't like the way the sound settings 'sound.' i think they sound way shittier. i'm using the headphones that came with the r700 and a pair of the new sport style ones...but if the players sounded better with out the hack, you think i should change it back? or am i missing something? do you absolutely need the lcd remote to access the other functions? kyleYour are problably right I don't dare trying it.I just know that the sound mode in the n707,wich I gave it away immediatly,is worse than the old megabass mode,the basses sound awful!So I don't know what would happen if I try.The new feature probably reduces the EQ bandhwidths and so you cannot control the range of say 180Hz anymore,but only a wide setting,say from 50 to 300 in the whole.Shelves instead of peaks,you know.

Guest Anonymous Posted February 4, 2003 Report Share Posted February 4, 2003 For the MZ-R501, setting 867 to S67 and 868 to S01 enables Type-R encoding. Since R501 uses the same DSP IC with R500, R700 and G750 (CXD2671-204GA), you may be able turn on Type-R for these units as well. I have an MZ-R910 and compared the recordings, I believe that Type-R was really activated for my MZ-R500. I can't be 100% sure of this, but at least the recordings sound cleaner than before. Have fun! P.S. I don't know if it works for R900 as well, it has a different DSP IC (CXD2671-202GA). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Anonymous Posted February 6, 2003 Report Share Posted February 6, 2003 Hey sam where did you go to activate the type-r setting? i have the 700 so i'll try it and post my results. Can anyone tell me anything good that can be done with the audio settings in the service mode, i don't do any messing round in service mode much. maybe i should. ps, i recon the new bass settings are better, they're cleaner and more subtle Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Press Vol+, Vol-, Vol-, you are now in 800. Press Play then Vol+ 5 times, then press Play for 7 times, this get you to setting 867. Use Vol+/Vol- to change the value to S67, then press Pause to save. Next press Play once (to get to setting 868), change the value to S01 and save. Then press Stop several times to go back to main menu. To hear the difference between Type-R and normal ATRAC, you would need a very good playback system. I prefer using a unit with proper line out and connect to a good stereo for comparasion.

Guest Anonymous Posted February 6, 2003 Report Share Posted February 6, 2003 it still plays just as well as before - relief cause i'd have to borrow my mates md to get the orig values again, tomorrow i'll make a new recording of the pixies in stereo and compare it to my other md of this album Thanks sam for this interesting hack, have you got any others?

Guest Anonymous Posted February 6, 2003 Report Share Posted February 6, 2003 I have made a testing tone for identifying Type-R encoder and will upload to http://members.fortunecity.com/heihey soon, check back later. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Anonymous Posted February 7, 2003 Report Share Posted February 7, 2003 the testing tone for type r would be useful. Although my comparason revealed little difference, it was cleaner and (maybe), but this could be caused by other factors, i don't have good enough minidisc player for the difference to be apparent. Still, it's p[retty good, maybe the testing tone will reveal all Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Anonymous Posted February 13, 2003 Report Share Posted February 13, 2003 Just wanted to add another thumbs up to the diligent work on this hack! Sorry about your MD unit. I've got a 500 myself and the ability to use shuffle without repeat is worth the hack alone! A little note after messing with this feature: It appears that with the 500, the unit loses track of what songs it has already played if you press Stop at any time during your program. Someone else please confirm this, I have tested this feature by skipping through all tracks randomly on my unit, and it finally does end with no repeats. If I press stop, it 'forgets' the tracks it has already played and will cycle through all of them again. --frog Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Anonymous Posted March 20, 2003 Report Share Posted March 20, 2003 Bejaysus, IT WORKS!!! This is brilliant! At last I can program my R500! The Japanese text had me frightened for a minute, then tried Pause and released the breath I was holding. Tried changing things around using Sam's list of functions, and was able to get rid of useless things like Sound (prefer seeing the 2 marks for TEH D0UBL3 B4SS!!) and the Katakana text - Beep never worked for me, but I didn't want it anyway (it'd drive me cracked). :?: Question: Does the Personal Disk Memory eat battery life? I'm not really keen to experiment with this aspect of the hack! Fantastic hack, all plaudits to Peter Maksymiuk (Mov1)!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I prefer using a unit with proper line out and connect to a good stereo for comparasion.So this is a seperate hack aside from the regular convert-to-R900 hack? If so, does it really work, do you have the test results? If so, can you write out an official and accurate step by step procedure? I won't be confident altering my unit yet again until you are confident of this discovery. Thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Anonymous Posted April 18, 2003 Report Share Posted April 18, 2003 I tweaked my r700 and want to be able to adjust the sound settings (bass and crap) but can't do it with the standard remote and I'm going to shell out the money for an RM-MC11EL, but I've stumbled upon an RM-MC12ELK which seems to be an upgrade for the RM-MC11EL for just a few more dollars and I was wondering whether anybody could tell me for sure that it can still adjust the sound settings and whether it's any better than the RM-MC11EL.
