Dear all,
I've had the rather disastrous situation twice recently of looking down at
my Sony MZ R700 MD while recording a bird call only to discover that instea=
d
of being on, say, track 56, it is on track 1 and all the previous recording=
s
have been lost! Despite the fact that the MD seems to be working perfectly,
it has on these two occasions, when I activated the record function, starte=
d
from the beginning instead of the end of the recordings (as it is set to do=
)
and thus all the previous recordings seem to have been lost!
Has anyone else had this experience? Is there any way of recovering the
data? On the first occasion I lost almost an hour of Ugandan bird calls
including a few species that have hardly ever been recorded before. Any
ideas on what might be causing the problem?
I'm considering getting a new MD rather urgently before I leave for a
Namibia trip in a week's time and wondered if anyone had any thoughts on th=
e
Sharp MD-MT888H?
With many thanks for any advice,
Callan
