knrel Posted July 29, 2003 Report Share Posted July 29, 2003 Hi Everyone, Need some advice and help i want to add a Mini Disc recorder to my Hi-Fi system so it most be a proper separates deck. I would like the function of MDLP (Long Play), but my concern is when recording in MDLP are you making mono-recordings or is it still stereo? I've looked at the Pioneer MJ-D508 (can't work out if this has MDLP) or a sony deck. What does the forum think? K Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KJ_Palmer Posted July 30, 2003 Report Share Posted July 30, 2003 The Pioneer MJ-D508 doesn't have MDLP (no deck released before 2002 would have), but has a nice signal processing feature for noisy analogue sources. I'd suggest the Sony MDS-JB980 (£250 and 'Special UK edition') as probably the best home deck going, or failing that the JE780 (~£220), which virtually the same features set. If money's tight the JE480 (~£120) is an excellent basic deck (no NetMD though). All these have MDLP and ATRAC Type S. If you're after a CD-MD combo deck, the MXD-D400 looks a good choice, but not sure if it's available in the shops yet. I'm going to check on friday... MDLP recording is in stereo by the way.
