Well apparently no one knows about getting the Sony drive into a computer. How about a drive made for it?
 
I thought the newer minidiscs had a USB interface? That would have the necessary drivers and the documentation you need to get it running. I don't have one myself, but one of my friends records stuff (mostly spoken word, she's studying broadcasting) and bounces it to her PC using USB.
 
Thanks

I am trying to get away from the internal electronics in the stand alone MD player/recorder. They arbitrarily do not allow recording digitally from certain sources.

Thanks for your time
 
I saw some mindisk drives on Ebay a while ago and I've been kicking myself ever since because they only went for about $120.

As far as internal dries go, your going to have a really hard time finding them and your going to pay a butt load.

If your interested in recording digitally I would reccomend getting a regular mindisc stereo unit - check for the digital I/O's and such.

Sony stays away from anything internal. They want their ATRAC compression to stay away from anywhere people will be able to get their hands on it and decode it. Thats why all the encoding is done by hardware.

Until Sony fixes OpenMG, I wouldnt suggest NetMD mindisc player/recorders

Thats all from me

peace
