I thought I remember the Sony MDs only allow you to adjust levels before recording, not during the recording...  But then again I have no idea...

I'd suggest reading the owner's/instruction manual...

Adn if you don't have a manual, I bet you could google a PDF of one online somewhere...

The recording volume is in the menus somewhere, maybe under options.  I'll try to dig out my MD and look tonight.

Easiest way is to use a battery box with a level knob so you don't have to dig through the menus.

I have the same MD, and boy is it a pain in the ass to set levels with it.  Luckily I only had to do it for one show before I upgraded. ;)

IIRC, you have to start recording, pause it, go through the menu and there should be a REC LEVEL option.

Hey.  Don't diss MDLP.  I've gotten lots of great shows that would otherwise have had to be analog.  I did quite a few a/b listening comparisons with SP and LP2- all digital transfers, mind you.. and quite frankly, I like the space and decay that LP2 gives over the old mode.  Don't forget that LP2 is not just ATRAC with a lower bit-rate, it's an entirely different algorithm that was developed at least 8 years after the original ATRAC, with faster and better DSP's.

Yes, it's still compressed.  But when you're dealing with compressed audio, the proof is in the listening.

That having been said, I won't be using it for anything but straight voice recording again.  I love my JB3.
