I have a Fostex VF160EX. The CD disc drive recently stopped burning CDs. For 10 years this is always how I got the digital files, by burning the CDs and then putting it into my itunes. If anyone is familiar with this unit and has suggestions on what I might want to try to fix the disc drive that would be awesome.
Beyond that, what are some options for transferring data to the mac without using a CD. Can I use the stereo outs of the Fostex with an analog to digital converter in to the Mac? Is there anyway to transfer the WAV file of a mixed-down song or does it have to be recorded into Garageband or Audacity?
I know I should bite the bullet and finally upgrade to a nice DAW and buy an interface. But, I don't have a lot of extra cash at the moment and there are several recordings on the Fostex that I'd like to salvage.
