mdfan Posted June 8, 2004 Report Share Posted June 8, 2004 I tried to record a few shows at a festival this weekend. Im new to this, but have used the setup about 6 times previously, so thought I had it figured out. I set my Sony 505 to auto level, sp recording. I left the setup sitting on a chair, so no bumps and talking would be recorded. The battery in the MD and batt box are fresh. I started recording, and walked away. Upon returning, found the recording stopped for no apparent reason. Happened 3 x this weekend, yet successfully recorded 2 other shows. I listened to the cut off recordings, and nothing/no one was messing with the rig, so I cant figure out why this happened. Any ideas? The MD player seems fine- plays back no problem, so I dont thing thats it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Christopher Posted June 9, 2004 Report Share Posted June 9, 2004 Does it always cut off at a certain time? Try recording with an AC adapter, if you didn't already. If this occurs with an AC adapter then there's probably something wrong with the unit itself. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
