MiniDisc Recording Comes of Age
Reviewer: An electronics fan
I wasn't bowled over by MiniDiscs when they first appeared. I heard there were some audible artifacts of the compression technology which kept these pocket-sized marvels from being a true match for CDs. And the price of the MD machines was more than I wanted to spend. Just the other day, however, I managed to score a Sony MZ-R37 portable MD recorder at an online auction, and I'm here to say -- jump in, everybody, the format's fine! The truth is, I'm not about to replace my CDs or cassettes or equipment. But I'm a semipro drummer who wanted to get digital quality recordings of rehearsals and jam sessions in a pocket-sized unit. Well, all I can say is -- if there are any audible deficiencies of the MD format, I can't hear them, and as a musician, my ears are pretty good. Although I haven't made a live recording of my band yet, I have been making test recordings all weekend, dubbing CDs of demanding acoustic music like the David Ware Quartet. The MZ-R37 makes and plays back superb recordings that I cannot distinguish from the original CDs; this despite the fact that I'm not using the digital optical hookup available (cord provided). I hear no hiss, wow, or flutter, no glitches between selections, and all instruments are present and accounted for, and sound the way they should. There are no problems with the azimuth misalignments I constantly encountered with cassettes. Recordings of electronic music sound superb too; the Beatles' "Come Together" sounded awesome! I did discover two things I have to get used to with the MD format. The first is the necessity of using the "END SEARCH" button if you have been listening to a recording before you resume recording; otherwise, songs get split in half and weird sequencing events occur. The second is to remember not to push PAUSE before pushing STOP at the end of a recording; every time you push PAUSE on the MZ-R37, it adds a track number. I'm so used to doing that on a cassette deck so as not to introduce a glitch onto the tape between songs. I also discovered that you can make a better recording by overriding the automatic gain control and pumping up the volume, so the peaks hit the top element in the display. In terms of things I would change on this unit, I wish the buttons were a little bigger; my old fingers don't always have the easiest time zeroing in on the button required for a certain function! And I wish the MZ-R37 had a back-lit or electro-luminescent LCD panel you could see in low-light conditions. I predict I'll be pulling out my pocket flashlight on more than one occasion to check levels and disc run status! And some sort of carrying case would have been a more welcome inclusion with this package for me than the cheapo headphones or optical cable included. Live recordists will need a stereo microphone too, one that draws power from the mike input; for sound quality, compactness, and affordable price, it's hard to beat Sony's PC-62 or its successor, if there is one. And that pretty much sums up the Sony MZ-R37 MD Recorder itself too!

Excellent Sony Product
Reviewer: citan-uzuki
This is a portable Mini-Disc player with the capability to record. The unit is very small, but also very sturdy. I believe the body of the unit is metal, not cheap plastic. Do not mistake these for the cheaper Sony portable audio products that seem to be geared for teenagers. This is a sophisticated, well-made device. It comes with a folding headset, Sony Nickel Cadmium rechargeable batteries, remote control, power adapter, and an optical cable. The unit has the capability to recharge the batteries when it is plugged in to an outlet. For recordings, I suggest using the power adapter instead of running on battery power. An excellent Sony product. I highly recommend it if you can find it here or ebay. I have been using and enjoying mine for over 2 years.

Excellent MD player
Reviewer: Jack
I got this MD player as my Christmas present. It didn't look very attractive and new, in terms of design. When I started to use it I realized what was hidden under its silver body panel! The sound was amazing (44.1 kHz) and the batteries lived for a good time to enjoy the music (approximately 12h with alkalines).
I take it to school everyday, and swich the batteries every 2 to 2 and a half weeks. I sometimes forget that I have it with me cause it's so light and compact. The Mini Disks are too very light and easy to carry. Once I ran to the bus listening to my MD, and it didn't even skip. I recommend you to buy this product. Even if it's kind of old, it's still good.
Thank you for reading my review. :)

Don't buy with the remote control included
Reviewer: fordenthusiast
This unit should come with a corded remote control attached. However many resellers don't have the remote and sell it without.

You'll have a tough time controlling the unit without it. The buttons, especially the fast forward and reverse, are tough to handle and even worse the editing buttons are on the underside of the unit!

I have one of these, without the remote, and learned the hard way that you really need it. NOw I'm scouring the net looking for a remplacement.
