Hello Danny,
I don't make tape recordings anymore either.
I just make digital transfers of them using DC7.
Making tape recordings these days, is so yester years. SMILES.
Why do that when these days, we're using tricks like vacuum tube preamps to
make our recordings sound pretty close to what records sound like.
My best regards.
John.

Hi John. I 100% agree with you and Kevin, and for old material
(mainly cassettes) I do copy things in real time and edit with
Goldwave (when I have the software installed). However, I don't want
to generate any more recordings on tape as I already have a collection
which will probably never all get converted, and my recordings often
need to last longer than 45 minutes before being interrupted.
However, for conversion of old recordings I'm definitely behind the
method described.

High Kevin,
It sounds like you're doing the same thing with your many disc that I do
with old records and tapes. SMILES
You don't always have to use the USB inter face if you can go the other
rout.
My best regards.
John.

Hi Danny.
Here's how the copy protection scheme works in the MD world. If your
original recording is analog, that is, you used the RCA or Walkman plug
to
record analog audio to the MD, you can make one level of digital copy
from
that MD. You won't be able to make a digital copy of these second level
discs. You can, however, make as many analog copies of MDs as you like,
copying from the original source in analog, copying that second copy to
a
third copy in analog, and so forth.
As for software that will play the contents of an MD, I'm not sure of
that.
As I said, I hook my MD recorder to the PC using analog means, and
record
the result into Sound Forge. I then split the file into individual
files
and convert them to .mp3. It's a bit tedious, but it is doable.
Hope this helps.
Have a good day, and don't work too hard.
GO REDS!
