i'm buying a minidisc recorder...anyone else have one....would you recomend avoid? just looking for opinions. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I have one. Mine is a Panasonic one. Pretty cool it is. I like Panasonic. |
||||||||

you can record in realtime with it...like hookin up a mic or your headphones to record natural sound yes? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
yeah - i have a sony one - it is my favourite toy - the battery life on mine is 50 hours of LP4 play one 1 AA battery |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||

Yes, and it does the NetMD business as well. It is only brand new. I have an older SJ-220 as well. Both are first class units. I generally use a mic to record sounds though, as headphones aren't too good at picking them up. |

I dont think minidisc will last long... I would like the gescom minidisc to come out in cd |
||||||||

|
People have been saying minidisc wont last for 8 years now...and it is still going strong.. |
||||||||
|

|
|
I dont see many artists releasing in minidisc |
||||||||
|
|

Very few do. But as a method for carrying copied music around, with 4 CDs worth on one tiny disc you can't go wrong. It is just an amazingly versitile format. |

I'd rather buy one of those mp3 players with a 20gig drive in them. My problem with minidisc is that when you put mp3's on it certain models recompress the music, so it loses even more quality. Plus the mp3 players are getting cheaper and hold a lot more than 4 cd's and also have rechargable batteries like a minidisc. |

yea i heard that the format that lets you store more music fucks with the sound...the only reason i'm choosing Minidisc over MP3 play is the record feature. i want to dump my vinyl stuff onto the MD then into my computer so i can burn that stuff on cd. As far as artists releasing on mini disc...its pretty clear what the major formats are...i'm just using it for storage and size factors. I end up with half of my cd collection in my ride. this way i can keep most of it on 3 or 4 discs...and burn shit i d/l right away. i usuall have to wait to collect all the different songs i want and then burn. This way i can burn what i have then re-write till i have everything i need. |

i've got a minicassette recorder but no minidisk |

The mp3 player I want can record from any source through a line in plug, including a plug-in power mic. They used to only be able record mp3's at 160kbs, but it may be better now. Eithor way a 160kbs mp3 is much better than the compression a MD uses to store 4 cd's on one disc. |

|
...It's the Arco's line of mp3 players |
||||||||
|

|
|
MiniDisc is really best suited for mic-recording (for samples and stuff) If you just want to carry around and listen to other peoples music, a mp3 player is a better choice... |
||||||||
|
|

|
|
it kicks a lot of ass for recording in general. i get a bit nervous using it as a walkman.. but yeah i just hook it up to my mixer and record hours worth of jams |
||||||||

johnny: me too! :) What I like the best is it?s durability - they don?t crash that often as 20 gig-mp3 players does... :) |

i have two minidisc recorders (both sony one older and one newer, but nothing better only smaller), and i'm waiting for the third to arrive. it is great for field recordings and looped sample playback. but for the mp3 music i really need one of the newest sony mp3 player...maybe even dvd mp3.... |

i have a portable minidisc recorder too i couldn't do without it anymore i'd recommend it |

I used to have a minidisc recorder. I just got tired of having to record all the music onto it, but now they have the USB ones which is nice, but I think I'd rather have an mp3 player. For $230 (maybe less) you get a 20gig with recording ability and an AM/FM radio (you can record from it to). I think it's really just a matter of preference. MD recorders here are hard to find. Not very popular in the US. |

sony are best for hi-fi seperates sharp for the portables (although look into the netMD things if you want easier/quicker copying) |
||||||||

i've got a sharp portable i'm happy with it :) |

MD can't crash like all those hard drives....and it's sooo small and light, what is very importonat for the summer |
||||||||

i got my finacee a MD player for christmas, she loves it b/c it's small and light, and very portable. i listened to a couple songs through it and it sounded good, but the highest bitrate it imports at is 130 or so. but even at that she can get 2 maybe three cds on one MD. |

nacmat: i downloaded gescom's minidisc from soulseek and burnt it to cd. my portable cd player has shuffle and that works pretty cool for the album, but it defeats their main purpose of the album: grouping tracks to make your own songs |
