Sony have more than tripled the density of minidisc's...personally I have always been a big fan of Minidisc and the new players/recorders which should be out in April will be backwardly compatible with the existing minidiscs which is even better news. I will probably be an early adopter yet again and pay over the odds :D |

Have you got a link for this or should I just browse the Sony site? |

"The new format can pack a gigabyte of data onto a disc, amounting to 45 hours of music compressed at 48Kbps." So I guess around 17 hours of 128 kbps |

It should mean 22.5 hours at the equivalent to 128kpbs (LP2) |

oh fuck me Ill hold off on buying a minidisc player for sampling then. this is great! |
||||||||
|

|
|
wow! that's great news ecnadniarb! I love my minidisk, and I use it quite frequently to record my guitar riffs. super outstanding! |

assuming the models have mic inputs :-\ |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
yeah, 48Kbps = urk! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|

I'd think so. Mine has a mic input, and that's a pretty old model. The new Hi-MD recorders will be able to act as external hard drives, letting people store photos, presentations or documents on a disc. |

Sweetness incarnate, I'll be marking that date on my calender. Honestly I've never touched or seen a minidisc in my life though, outside of those itty bitty bite sized Gamecube discs. |

"With ATRAC3plus compression" ... "Music can be compressed to 132, 105, 66, 64 or 48 kbps (kilobits per second), so you can store more music or record at higher fidelity. " ....but no higher than 132?? that sucks it says you can put .wavs on it too though.... but it doesn't say if youll be able to have more than one format on the same disc... ie a .wav, some mp3s and a minidisc-format? (whatever minidisc audio is called) also, some of the models will have mic and/or line-in recording (dont know what format) Sony's story: http://news.sel.sony.com/pressrelease/4270 Pictures of the different models: http://news.sel.sony.com/digitalimages/album?album_id=155189 |

I like my mp3's to encoded with variable bitrate. spanning from 32kbps to 320kbps. Sucks donkeyballs if that doesn't work with the new MD format. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
How do you figure? That would be half the time at more than double the quality? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||

MD's rule. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i'm happy with 5 hours per MD |
||||||||

Because Minidisc doesn't use MP3 codecs it uses Atrac which gives equivelent results at lower bitrates...like OGG does compared to MP3. |
||||||||

(This has probably been discussed already..) It's too bad they won't be reproducing official prerecorded MD's. Just when i was getting used to this format, too. @_@ P. |

fuck just when I'd managed to convince myself that an iPod was the way to go. Now I'm confused again. :( |

i have the gold sony minidisc player (i believe it was the "lower end" model although i couldn't see any differenced between it and the more expensive one except that it came with more stuff like a car kit and control etc..) which is an older model i think. my brother got a black one in november which is basically the same as mine except it doesn't have an input jack or an ac adapter plug, only usb. i don't know if they still make the gold ones but i haven't seen them in stores. but it must suck having to wait like and hour for it to convert and transfer the files using batteries only. sorry that was probably useless information/opinion. |
