mAjEsTiC Posted December 26, 2003 Report Share Posted December 26, 2003 that only transfers music from PC -> MD digitally and not the other way around...since most (nearly all) portable MD units do NOT have an optical output it can't use the optic cable to transmit digitally from MD -> PC...also i think if you read closer it says that it uses normal analogue cables to connect from MD -> PC...so recording to PC is done via analogue means...from what i've encountered only decks with optical outputs can transfer digitally from MD -> PC...

usuario_usable Posted December 26, 2003 Author Report Share Posted December 26, 2003 Ok, mAjEsTiC, thanks for your explanation, you´re right. I´ve seen your answers in other threads, I´m very sorry for repeating it, I only want to help!! Next time I´ll be more careful. :oops: Greetings.

usuario_usable Posted December 26, 2003 Author Report Share Posted December 26, 2003 And do you think this MD-Port is better to transfer music from MD to PC than with normal LINE OUT of MZ-N910? Thanks very much!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mAjEsTiC Posted December 26, 2003 Report Share Posted December 26, 2003 nope N910 LINE OUT is fine...it basically sound more or less the same on this device i would think... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
usuario_usable Posted December 26, 2003 Author Report Share Posted December 26, 2003 Ok, thanks very much!! I think I must pay you a beer!! Greetings. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mAjEsTiC Posted December 26, 2003 Report Share Posted December 26, 2003 hehe...enjoy ur MD unit...it's a flagship model so it will have quite a lot of features that u'd expect in a high end model...it doesn't need the XiTeL device to transfers from MD -> PC as you're just wasting more money than buying a 3.5mm stereo cable and connceting it that way...unless u want to record from ur PC through digital (and ur soundcard doesn't have a TOSLink output) then this device will come in handy as it uses a USB port to create a digital output from your computer bypassing the soundcard (if u have a dodge soundcard this would be a pretty good buy IMO)...

Guest Anonymous Posted December 27, 2003 Report Share Posted December 27, 2003 Would seem to me that this would be a simple process for transfering Live recordings form your MD to your Comp.......all you need to to is buy a split cable from headhone jack into RCA's and it should work.....Anyone know how the software works and what format it gets converted into?

usuario_usable Posted December 27, 2003 Author Report Share Posted December 27, 2003 Well, I have it!!! Yesterday I did buy my MZ-N910 and... it´s fantastic!!! Today I have recorded one concert with my own music (for piano) and the sound it´s incredible!!! (it´s true that it isn´t professional, but for that money, it´s impressionant). Scotty, I will transfer music from my MD to my PC with the method that mAjEsTiC says. The soft that I will use it´s the Sound Forge. Thanks and greetings.
