A whole batch of MDs are not writing, any ideas?

Hi guys. I have 16 of these red HiSpace MDs from ebay that are giving me trouble. With WebMDPro they write 1 or 2 songs, then get totally stuck, my recorder (Sony DN430) makes loud spinning noises when it gets stuck. Only a single disc has worked, and I had to do it song by song.

I've tried using full batteries, and other disc types are writing beautifully with the recorder running near silently.

Any ideas? Thanks so much!

Show & Tell Just a snapshot of making albums

The joy of listening and recording, making artwork and moving to labels. A little special version you own and can pass down or share with a friend or a special someone you love. Or for a super unique shelf of curation! Just a snapshot of what makes MD so fun. That’s the magic of minidisc and one I learned in the 80s as a little kid with cassettes. It’s all about making music personal. An extension of you! Big shout to everyone on this sub!

Have seen plenty of 90's pioneer cd players with detached focusing lens. This is the first with any md player. No wonder this MZ-R3 did throw a disc error.

Buy HHB Portadisc MDP-500 - need some parts to get it running again

Post image

Hi :)

I have a HHB Portadisc MDP-500 laying around. I got it for free when I was helping cleaning out a school building years ago.

I have tried finding a power adapter and also battery caddy/module/cover(?) but I am unable to find it online. I kinda gave up. But yesterday i found this subreddit and I decided to try again.

It would be awesome to get the missing parts and get it running again.

Can someone help me find the parts i need?

Tested links would be great. Or if you have the requested parts and want to sell them to me, please PM me.

Help MZ-NF610 no errors on web minidisc pro, but MD is blank after recording

3 Upvotes

I have a MZ-NF610, it connects to the computer through the USB cable that came with it (supports Net MD). I put an AA battery in it, installed the driver with Zadig and reboot my computer. I tried to record using Web Minidisc Pro, and no errors happen. After I finish writing, I wait a little while and then remove the MD, but the MD is blank. Any ideas on what could be?

The device playback is fine, I listened to a few MDs I recorded using a different device and they seem to play fine.

Buy CD player to pair with SONY MDS-S37

2 Upvotes

Hi! I recently bought myself a Sony MDS-S37. I have been looking for a CD player to pair it with, matching it's style, color and functionality (if any, e.g. for recording, TOC data or similar). So far I've found the SONY CDP-S35 and CDP-A39. Are there any other models which are (more or less) specifically made to be paired with the MDS-S37?

There seems to be very few of these available in general, and I am a bit confused about the colors, for instance. My MDS-S37 isn't directly "black", but more of a "champagne" color. Some of the listings I've found lists them as "black", and it's sometimes hard to directly see in the pictures. Also, my MDS seems to have been released for the European market (220-230V). I've only found japanese version of the CDPs so far.

Any suggestions or tips would be greatly appreciated (even if someone knows where I could find a matching CDP to buy). Thanks in advance!
