A Petition Asking Sony to Enable Netmd-Based Audio Uploading from Minidisc to Computer A Petition Asking Sony to Enable NetMD-Based Audio Uploading from MiniDisc to Computer To: Sony Corporation Sony Corporation Tokyo, Japan New York, USA From: The Community of MiniDisc Users on the Web Dear Sony MiniDisc Designers: Sony's NetMD extension is a wonderful boon to the Minidisc format and has helped bring Minidisc into the networked world of online music distribution. Our petition seeks an enhancement to the Minidisc's NetMD facility to enable Minidisc users to move their audio recordings directly from Minidisc to PC. It is not our intention to cause general trouble or engage in ad hominem harassment of Sony. On behalf of all MiniDisc users, we kindly ask that you heed our petition, as follows: WHEREAS, Minidisc recorders are ideally suited to making digital field recordings, and WHEREAS, Users frequently need to move recordings they make onto a computer (PC, Mac, Unix/Linux or otherwise) for processing or further distribution, and WHEREAS, A Minidisc recording is intrinsically a digital format, and WHEREAS, The only existing method of moving Minidisc recordings onto a computer involves "recording" the signal through the computer's sound card, a lengthly and cumbersome process that generally degrades the signal by converting it to analog format and back to digital form, and WHEREAS, All Minidisc recorders already flag their recordings to indicate those tracks that have been recorded through the digital inputs (and are copy-protected) and those that have been recorded through the analog inputs (and are not copy- protected), thereby allowing the upload function to prevent unwanted copying, and WHEREAS, Sony's existing NetMD function already provides for direct transfers of compressed audio from computer to Minidisc, WE THE UNDERSIGNED, kindly request that Sony extend NetMD so that it can be used for uploading compressed audio directly from Minidisc to PC, thereby providing users with a quick, convenient, and lossless method of moving their Minidisc recordings to PC. SIGNATURES: 0. Add audio upload to the Minidisc Walkman. However, music files can only be recorded in Posted by Eric Woudenberg on 4/28/2002, 7:21 pm LP2 and LP4. Please add the support for SP and Mono. If you can make all these possible, then Minidisc will be on one hell of a format. Thanks!! Dear Sony: Minidisc is a great format, but it really needs compressed audio upload to make it complete. Please do what's right for Minidisc and its 9. Rehearsal recordings users!

The mp3/ATRAC conversion is far too slow, to say the least.

Keep Minidisc on top Posted by Patrick Turcotte on 4/30/2002, 10:09:03 Brian Davis Denver, Colorado USA I believe that Minidisc is currently the medium of choice for recording live sound - I use it for business meetings and to store each and every one of 11.

Its flexibility and sound quality are unmatched, but Posted by Brian Wilson on 4/30/2002, 10:50:49 probably not for long; on-the-fly mp3 recording is appearing and will offer an interesting alternative if Minidisc doesn't stay on top of things feature- I both listen to and create music, and there is no format that handles my wise. I believe the digital transfer of material through NetMD from the needs better than Minidisc. I feel that the only limitation to this format are device to the PC is a natural and essential step in that direction. the ones Sony places on it. I understand the pressure you are under from your music division, but this I know several radio journalists interested in the format. They all agree that feature is certainly not what will encourage commercial music propagation. the decision to adopt MD, for themselves and their organizations, would be Let's face it, mp3, wma and (eventually) Ogg Vorbis are formats of choice made easier by high speed uploading. That capability can only help cement for this problem, not ATRAC. the format among professionals and hobbyists. Thanks for taking this under consideration, 12.

  • How to Tape-Record Primate Vocalisations Version June 2001
    How To Tape-Record Primate Vocalisations Version June 2001 Thomas Geissmann Institute of Zoology, Tierärztliche Hochschule Hannover, D-30559 Hannover, Germany E-mail: [email protected] Key Words: Sound, vocalisation, song, call, tape-recorder, microphone Clarence R. Carpenter at Doi Dao (north of Chiengmai, Thailand) in 1937, with the parabolic reflector which was used for making the first sound- recordings of wild gibbons (from Carpenter, 1940, p. 26). Introduction Ornithologists have been exploring the possibilities and the methodology of tape- recording and archiving animal sounds for many decades. Primatologists, however, have only recently become aware that tape-recordings of primate sound may be just as valuable as traditional scientific specimens such as skins or skeletons, and should be preserved for posterity. Audio recordings should be fully documented, archived and curated to ensure proper care and accessibility. As natural populations disappear, sound archives will become increasingly important. This is an introductory text on how to tape-record primate vocalisations. It provides some information on the advantages and disadvantages of various types of equipment, and gives some tips for better recordings of primate vocalizations, both in the field and in the zoo. Ornithologists studying bird sound have to deal with very similar problems, and their introductory texts are recommended for further study (e.g. Budney & Grotke 1997; © Thomas Geissmann Geissmann: How to Tape-Record Primate Vocalisations 2 Kroodsman et al. 1996). For further information see also the websites listed at the end of this article. As a rule, prices for sound equipment go up over the years. Prices for equipment discussed below are in US$ and should only be used as very rough estimates.

  • Media Draft Appendix
    Media Draft Appendix October, 2001 P C Hariharan Media Historical evidence for written records dates from about the middle of the third millennium BC. The writing is on media1 like a rock face, cave wall, clay tablets, papyrus scrolls and metallic discs. Writing, which was at first logographic, went through various stages such as ideography, polyphonic syllabary, monophonic syllabary and the very condensed alphabetic systems used by the major European languages today. The choice of the medium on which the writing was done has played a significant part in the development of writing. Thus, the Egyptians used hieroglyphic symbols for monumental and epigraphic writing, but began to adopt the slightly different hieratic form of it on papyri where it coexisted with hieroglyphics. Later, demotic was derived from hieratic for more popular uses. In writing systems based on the Greek and Roman alphabet, monumental writing made minimal use of uncials and there was often no space between words; a soft surface, and a stylus one does not have to hammer on, are conducive to cursive writing. Early scribes did not have a wide choice of media or writing instruments. Charcoal, pigments derived from mineral ores, awls and chisels have all been used on hard media. Cuneiform writing on clay tablets, and Egyptian hieroglyphic and hieratic writing on papyrus scrolls, permitted the use of a stylus made from reeds. These could be shaped and kept in writing trim by the scribe, and the knowledge and skill needed for their use was a cherished skill often as valuable as the knowledge of writing itself.

    E-List View: Boomboxes Queries: I'm looking for a portable waterproof boombox that plays cd's as well as ipods that has really great sound quality. Any recommendations! We go through one at least every six months due to CD's skipping and connection/power issues. Please post make & model on elist. Responses: I bought a waterproof boombox from Brookstone, but it is ONLY for ipods. It has a remote, which is really great, and the ipod is protected in an enclosure. GREAT Sound, even for an outdoor pool! About $99. The construction industry makes outdoor moisture boomboxes that play ipods. They are built to stay in on piece if a bomb goes off. Check the tool department in large hardware or home stores building. Sony ZS-H10CP Heavy-Duty CD Radio Boombox. Found it on Amazon.com for $109.85. It requires a patch cord to plug in an ipod. I have owned 3 Sony Waterproof boomboxes over the last 20 years and all had superior sound. It is bigger than most portables and is encased w/sturdy plastic w/a handle for ease in carrying. It plugs in or works on battery. This heavy duty box replaced several others which did not stand the test of time, and the assault of air travel, salt and fresh water and salt air. It has been going strong now for quite a while without a hitch and still looks good. It does not use cassettes but does use CD’s and has an ipod connection. Currently I use one from Frontgate catalog for about $300.00.
