I have an MDS-JE630. In my opinion it is an amazing deck. ATRAC Type- R
sounds great, and the keyboard input is amazing. A weird thing about it
though.... You can't switch the play mode when playing the disc. You must
completely stop the playing (not just pause it). Thus, if you want to switch
to shuffle play when listening to your disc, press stop, switch to shuffle,
press play again. Kind of annoying, all Sony decks like this?
Pitch control is probably used if you make your own music. Say you felt the
song was recorded too slow, just speed her up!

Some of you might remember that my faithful Sony MDS-JE510 died a few
months ago. Since then, I've been trying to use my R37 portable as my
main MD recorder/player, connecting it to my system -- not fun. Best
Buy refused to do anything but give me a store credit; and the MD
recorders they had were insufficient for me (the JE330 and CD/MD combo
unit).
Well . . . I visited Tweeter the other day (formerly Home
Entertainment, Inc.) and imagine my surprise when I asked for a later
model and received an MDS-JE630 for $249! (Note: I did have to ask;
only the 330 was on display.) Needless to say, I supped it up real
fast!
The keyboard entry is so much easier; the pitch control is fun (-4
or -5 makes females sound like males -- what is this feature really
for?); the two-level screen is helpful, as is the faster title
scrolling; the disc-loading mechanism is smooth -- there are so many
nice features! Anything else it can do not mentioned in the book?
Check out Tweeter, folks. That's a deal!
