Hey, Simon! How's life on a very small island far, far away?

I thought those were the "stereo" inputs, but it is possible you can
only mix them in for recording purposes and not monitor them otherwise
(though that would seem a little odd). I've still got my manual, so
I'll check as soon as I can find it ;->

Subject: [mtmd] 2 tracks in, how to get stereo out?

Hi all

I used to be quite active on the group, but I've been
lurking for a while (years in fact!)

I use my MD8 mainly as a mixer for live work in church
these days. It has the added bonus of playing back
pre-recorded music when needed.

There are two RCA inputs at the back labelled '2 TR
in', which I have tried (unsuccessfully) to use to
channel a CD player's output (R+L stereo) into the
main mix - as background music or sometimes as a kind
karaoke sing-along when I don't have time to
pre-record the tracks onto disk.

However I can't get any sound out! I've tried playing
with the 'stereo' and 'monitor' buttons, to no avail.

has anyone used this input successfully?

I don't want to have to use up two input channels for
the CD R+L, I would rather utilise the 2TRin input.

Blessings,

Simon

thanks Roger and Bob!

I now have acquired a couple of ideas I will try next
time.... I too have a manual but as most of us, am too
bone lazy to check it out myself..!

And thanks for asking, life on a small island far, far
away has changed dramatically for the worse. So much
so in fact, that we left and now live in New Zealand.
Since 2001. This might explain my silence I suppose,
as I haven't done much recording since the move.

Blessings all

Simon

I fired up my Sony MDMX4 the other night after not using it for a
couple of years.  I'd forgotten how easy it is to use.  The physical
UI is MUCH simpler and faster to use than computer based recording...

Anyway can anyone recommend a good source for MD data discs?  The local
Guitar Center stopped selling them years ago...

Thanks,

Charles

Try [www.musiciansfriend.com ]. They have TDK for $15 USD. Don't buy the 1
GB Sony - I'm pretty sure they won't work in our old equipment. They do work
in new MiniDisk player/recorders.

I still use my Yamaha MD8 and I too enjoy the easy recording. Particularly
if you have to play & record.

I bought an M-Audio Delta 1010LT card for my PC and 8 RCA cables. I record
our band on 8 simultaneous tracks on the Yamaha MD8 at our practice. I go
home and connect my Yamaha MD8 to the 1010 and download using Cakewalk/SONAR
home Recording. The editing is very flexible and I can polish up the mix and
create MP3. It works very well.

Good Luck

If there is anything I can offer I would be please to do so. My website
is www.excellentleads.com

Thanks for letting me in.

Best wishes,

i have no idea, but i sell you my x4 if you want to buy it

I used to be a member of this group, back when I used an MD8
regularly. I was cleaning up recently and came across around 13 unused
MD Data discs. Anyone want to trade for these?

I record onto a Mac now, so anything you have you're not using would
be fine, I'm not expecting to make money on this. I remember my MD8
fondly and it would be nice if the discs were with someone who can use
them. Email me privately if interested.

Manuals for what equipment?

I am selling my Sony MD portable and deck on e-bay.  $15 reserve

ViewItem&item=300150934361&_trksid=p3907.m32&_trkparms=tab%3DSelling

Knock Knock!

Wow! I still use my Yamaha MD8. How about you?

I still check eBay for 140Mb MiniDiscs. I still don't know how to use
all the features of my MD8. I have even managed to use regular stereo
MiniDiscs to produce some nice recordings!

For example: Guitar on Track 1, Bass Guitar on track 2. The bump down
to track 1 and add Drums to track 2. In some cases, I'll bump again to
add vocals.

Point is, where there's a will and a small pot of disposable income,
there is a way!

Chime in if you have an ounce of motivation!

Rock on,
James
Maryland, USA

My Yamaha MD4S is still the only thing with which I record.
Love it. No great desire to replace it. :)
