None of the current consumer portable MD decks have digital out. Only digital in. If you want digital transfers from MD you have to get a separate deck with digital output (which are pretty uncommon these days). Try eBay and look at the specs for any deck you find at www.minidisc.org before believing seller's claims.

The guy who bought my Sony RM-D3K System Adaptor Kit (i.e. portable DAT remote control unit) the first time I posted it on Ebay flaked out. So it's up again for its second, and hopefully final, go-around. http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=3056771926&category=3281& rd=1 Auction ends Sunday just before noon PST.

I'm not looking for supreme audio quality, just really good. >***** Diane, After about 3 months using the Marantz PMD 670 (and a year with its predecessor, the PMD 690), I give it A+, two thumbs way up, five stars ... whatever the top rating, that's what it gets from me. For $650, I defy you to come up with a DAT machine that is even close to the PMD670 for ease of use, audio quality and pro features: XLR inputs, phantom power, s/pdif i/o, USB i/o, selectable sample rates ...and, as you mentioned, the option to record in uncompressed .wav or .mp3 or .mp2 in a wide range of bit rates. Pulling files from the CF card right into your computer for editing and/or archiving to CD couldn't be easier and, even if you use high quality CD blanks, you still don't approach the cost of DATs. An added bonus: no moving parts means totally silent operation so if you're recording in a quiet room, the sound of the machine is ... no sound. No motor translates to longer battery life and lighter weight. Also, the PMD 670 mic preamp is very clean. CF cards are easily available and regularly on sale. One caution (which Marantz mentions on its website): the IBM Microdrive, which works very well in the PMD670, is more sensitive to bumps and jolts than a regular CF card so if you're using it on the run, better to go with the totally solid state CF cards. -- Alan -#- ------------------------------ From: Erich S Subject: FS: D7 and Rode NT5 Date: Fri, 7 Nov 2003 07:41:23 -0800 (PST) Make offer, I'll take what I can get; Paid $300 for Rodes, about $350 for D7, all works fine. The D7 doesn't have a battery sled so you'll have to figure a way to power it. Peace ~E __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!? Protect your identity with Yahoo!
