Actually the DA-P1 does not play or record in LP mode. OTOH it can play
tapes recorded in SP ; it can also record in SP, but only from the digital
input (the ADC works only at 44.1 and 48 ksps). The TCD-D8 plays LP and SP
tapes, but it records in LP only.

I'm quite embarrassed that my last post took triple the space it needed to.
Could somebody help me shut off what caused the problem? Win98/Eudora4.1
My apologies to all, JH

Subject: M1 and D8 for cloning?
Date: Fri, 12 Feb 1999 14:17:39 +0000 (WET)
I'm really into buying a Sony PCM-M1 to do cloning with my D8 (yes, M1
will record, D8 will play, I already have the cable).
Can anyone tell me:
1) If I shouldn't.. :-)
2) Where should I go best deal on the M1 in the states. DAT store/Gary is
selling for $690 something, Jim Oade gave me $675 and Terrapin wil match
any price (note, this info in from late January...)
3) If the M1 can be found on the Hong Kong market, or if it's a US only
release...
Please ma a cc of your reply to me.
Thanx,
Miguel Afonso

I notice SCMS is referred to as ID6 . What exactly does that mean and what
happened to ID's 1 through 5 ? Seth,I bet you have a snappy reply!
Does anyone out there have a NICE copy of Failure on KCRW 10.04.96?
Or any Failure!

What I meant here is that for short (i.e., 3') runs, a Radio Shack $5 video
cable sounds pretty much the same as a $50 Monster (or similar) "digital"
cable.
