MD dont make track when recording from spdif computer output

[Guest Anonymous]

I have a MX-R70 and it works fine when i record from spdif on a cd player and makes tracks.

When i record form computer it starts directly when i push the sync rec button, and it dosent create tracks, just one long track.

Soundcard Hercules 6.1

That happens to a lot of users while recording digitally from PC, so it isn't your equipment. Why this happens I don't know - the sound card is probably sending a continuous signal to the MD even while music isn't playing, unlike CD players.

Had this problem myself, but i downloaded a freeware program which allows you to insert a 2 second gap between each track and then the MD picks this up MP3 2 MD hope this helps

Are you recording streamed net radio sites? Those won't break into tracks.

You shouldn't be generating a signal for the sync unless you're playing something. You might try using the sound card properties to kill off non-WAV outputs.

Im recording from a walkman with my mzn1, my problem is the opposite. My recorder create a new track whenever it sence a silence. so i end up with 200+ track where i want them to be a single track. I have turn sync rec to OFF.
