Hello, all,
I have myself in a bind. I offer a service of digitizing and
recovering tapes and someone talked me into trying to do some Mini
Discs for them and now I discover that I'm woefully behind the times
with a standard MD player that won't play LP or possibly HD.
So, I'm wanting to grab the most cost-effective MD player that I can
that will play **ALL** MD formats. I get a call for this about once a
year, but since this client came from a good friend I don't want to
let her down. The project will hopefully almost pay for the MD
player, so it becomes almost revenue neutral (which is better than a
loss plus an embarrassment!).
I have come across a Pro MD MZ-M200 and a consumer MZ-RH1 and
frankly, I find trying to determine which is better to be very difficult.
I am Windows-based and I think the MZ-RH1 will permit me to recover
files in LP and HD MD formats from the discs via USB. I think that is
preferable to real-time streaming.
Any suggestions guidance from this astute group of individuals would
be most welcome.
I currently have an MDS JE530 and two MZ-R37's. I liked the MZ-R37
with an Audio Technica AT822 mic for oral history recording, but for
something compact, I like the Zoom H2 better <smile>.
Cheers,
Richard
