newman514ce Posted April 28, 2004 Report Share Posted April 28, 2004 This is my first posting to the Forum...glad I found you! I've had a Sony MZ-N510 since last October and really love it's quality and versatility, except when it comes to the process of transferring music via NetMD. Problem #1-I tried using SimpleBurner, but found the results to sound "gritty," so I moved to SonicStage. I don't mind the program iteslf in terms of user-friendliness, but have never had an error-free transfer of music. Last night, for instance, I tried transferring music from a live CD (didn't want gaps in sound...see below), and found that, although everything on the computer showed a correct transfer, intermitent LOUD bursts of whte noise are present...and the key word is LOUD! If I check-in a corrupted track and re-check-out again it usually fixes the problem, but sifting through a 2 1/2 hour recording waiting for a loud error is no fun, not to mention the time it takes to re-check-in/out! Problem #2 relates, in some ways, to problem #1. Since I've had so many problems with SimpleBurner, I've begun using RealPlayer (the free version), which has worked flawlessly, but I can't/don't know how to get rid of the 1-2 second gap between tracks. I see, in their literature, that the full (purchased) version allows for the gap to be "turned off" when burning a CD...can it also be turned off in transferring tracks to MD? Any help/insight is greatly appreciated! Eric Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
newman514ce Posted April 30, 2004 Author Report Share Posted April 30, 2004 Update-I downloaded RealPlayer 10 and did find a way to get rid of the 2 second gap...sort of. Now, instead of the gap, I get a sort of "stutter" or "hiccup" when one track is moving to the other. Also, I transferred some files using SimpleBurner, and found it to be even worse than SonicStage at producing random loud noises. One track was nothing but digital garbage...no music at all! If nothing else, I'll tranfer live CDs to MD via optical cable and my home CD player. Any thoughts on all this? Eric Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
