j_crow Posted May 3, 2004 Report Share Posted May 3, 2004 I recently recording a gig i mixed onto my md through the desk getting a great result. Now i want to put the tracks onto my laptop to master the recording for a cd. I know that the sony software sucks but am looking for a program (which i hope exists?) to use the usb cable to keep the music in the digital domain as i have a useless sound card, and optical is out of the question. I have looked about but seem to find myself boxed in all over the place, i am sure that many more peop's have found the same thing but am hoping that someone has worked out how to use the usb cable to extract from the md. Help me please! thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jadeclaw Posted May 4, 2004 Report Share Posted May 4, 2004 Sorry, you're stuck... Recordings done on current equipment cannot be uploaded through USB. Not even using a Hi-MD unit, when that comes out. The only way is via Analog or using a home deck and through a soundcard with optical in. If that recording is done in SP-Mode, you can use any home deck with digital out, e.g. the JE 500, which starts at about 50 bucks on ebay - If done in LP2 or LP4, you have to use a more modern home deck, these are more expensive. And then you need optical in on your laptop, think Edirol and USB. Sorry, that is the way to go... And that is the way I'm doing it currently.
