Can anyone help me out here...I have all my Sessions on MD because its a small little recorder and easy to use. The quality is great, however to give my demo out to promoters I feel that CD would be a better choice. If anyone knows of any simple ways to get my MD to CD that would be great.. I do have a PC with a 10x Burner..So whatever you can give me..please send my way..thanks
 
im not sure about this..but couldn't you connect the md player to the computer and then record it as a wave then either convert it to mp3 and put it on cd or just put it one cd a wave file......here's how you do it in case you forgot.....hey its you:) =>

Im picking up my skills and I want to start recordings my stuff so that I can hear what Im doing and improve on it. Now I have 2 turntables mixer, moniters yanno the set up. I also Have a Windows PC with good sound card and CD burner. Now could anyone tell me what I need to do to make cont. Mixes be able to get recorded either to my computer or by other means. If my something else, then please let me know what I need to get to make tapes,CD's etc. Please give me some advice..thanks

Sure let me help you out for this.

Get yourself a "RCA (male, left and right)-> 3.5 Stereo (male)" jack cable (gold, good quality).

Plug the mixer's LINE OUT to the PC LINE IN

open your sound options in the PC (double click on the small speaker icon next to your clock) and ENABLE line-in in BOTH PLAYBACK AND RECORD modes.

Get yourself Sound Forge, or another WAV editor. Open it, and set the RECORD to 44.1Khz, 16Bit, Stereo.

Set the volume of the mixer to half (NOT max!) and play something.. make sure you can hear your mixer's sound in the PC speaker.

Press RECORD, you will start capturing the mix... do some tests first.. You can save your WAV file on your hard drive and play it anytime you wnat.. burn it on a CD, or even encode it as a MP3.

Make sure it doesn't "clip" (ie get too loud).

If you have problems you know where to ask

Does your md have digital out, computer have digital in? If so use digital connections. As far as programs, sound forge, wavelab. Do you have any sound recording apps on your computer?
