Mottlefeeder Posted December 13, 2008 Posted December 13, 2008 I am about to move from Minidisk to solid state WAV/MP3 recording, so my old gear will be sitting around doing nothing from Christmas onwards. I have a Sony MZ-R37 portable minidisk recorder, in working order, and just over 50 minidisks. If anyone wants either, or both, for the cost of the postage, please let me know. David

dudewheresmybass Posted December 13, 2008 Posted December 13, 2008 can i put my name into the hat, if Mr Foxen is not wanting to take it please?
Rowbee Posted December 13, 2008 Posted December 13, 2008 I'm definitely interested too! I only wish I was quicker on these things.

Oli[/quote] OK, Oli was first, so he has first refusal. The minidisk recorder comes with a mini (mono) microphone, built into a 3.5 mm jack plug. With that, you can use the recorder set to record in mono for twice the time of a standard minidisk, so you have 144 minutes per disk. It runs on AA batteries, or a Sony walkman 4.5 V wallwart. Our band rehearses in an L shape, with the drums in the corner and the microphone picks up everyone, just sitting on the edge of my music stand. Alternatively it will take a stereo mic, or a stereo feed from the desk. Unless you want to build up an archive, you probably won't need 50 disks, but you have first call if you think you will.
tauzero Posted December 13, 2008 Posted December 13, 2008 If there's any surplus disks going, I wouldn't mind a few...
Mottlefeeder Posted December 13, 2008 Author Posted December 13, 2008 Unless he changes his mind, Mr Foxen is taking all of it. Thanks for your interest.
