Buying RM-MC33EL

I'm pretty sure that the RM-MC33EL will work on a NH700, it works perfectly on my NH1, so theoretically it should work as well with the NH700.

There are (broadly speaking) usually two versions of the most sophisticated remotes (i.e for high end Sony MD models), the Japanese version, which displays Kanji and Roman text, and the rest of the world version, which displays Roman text only. A "K" on the end of the model number signifies that it can display kanji (e.g RM-MC40ELK).

However the Japanese equivalent of the remote you mentioned, the MC35ELK, has higher resolution LCD display than the MC33EL.

Addendum: As for what would happen if you try to display kanji on a roman only remote, I am not sure.

the only thing you cant do is do a search

like for a certain artist or album

other than that all functions work with that remote so i say go for it

The MC33EL does allow you to do this, it's buried in the main menu after "Edit",it's called "MainPMode". You choose the mode then press the group "+" and "-" to locate the particular artist or whatever. This is similar to the remote that comes with the NH900 (MC38EL I think), judging by it's manual.

Does that remote have a track mark button that works with Hi-MD?

MC33EL - No, but nor does my MC40ELK, unless it's a 'doubled-up' button.

Sorry, okay I'll clarify. To get the menu on the remote (RM-MC33EL, RM-MC35ELK) you hold down the "Display" rather than pressing it. If it's worked you'll get "Edit" flashing on the remote. You can twist the volume control to change the menu item, wrong! - pushing the jog lever at the bottom of the remote changes the menu item. "MainPMode" is the one after "Edit".

I must assume you've got a MC33EL, even though you havn't explictly said so. If you're using it on a Hi-MD unit the NH900 manual will give the best idea how to use it since NH900 has a similar remote (I think the difference is that it displays different/additional symbols in the right-hand of the display), and most functions on the remote are defined by the unit you're using it on. Opeating manuals are here by the way.

well this aint good because i tried holding the display button for two seconds and then some and it doesnt do any more than turn the light on while im pressing it

nothing else in the display changes

Can you explicitly tell me which unit and which remote do you have? I'm starting to think my seemingly well founded assumptions are wrong.

a guy on t-board says:

"Hi All,

I had a chance to try out 3 remotes on the MZ-NH600 (Australian model). I presume compatability will be no different if you have a US, Euro model.

RM-MCEL11S

All buttons work

Backlit works

Displays All information including compression and album

RM-MC12ELK

Same as above

Has larger text

RM-MC35ELK

All buttons work

Backlit works

Displays All information including compression and album

Group functions work.

If you want me to try anything else please let me know."

hm really strange, maybe there is some differences between 600 in australia and US
