Title: Urgh, bring on my JB3!
Post by: aberg on March 19, 2004, 02:51:54 AM
I just taped a show tonight.. the last one I'll tape with my shitty MD... As usual, there's little dropouts littered throughout the recording. Why does MD do this? I'm expecting my JB3 to arrive tomorrow, so I'll have no issues anymore, but this just sucks... anyone else experience these MD dropouts all the time?

armen had some excrutiating stuff going on with md, but it was more in the transfer arena.  it was painful even to read.

Even the slightest bump caused a drop out on mine, if you ever read the text files for my MD sourced shows, they are littered with comments about drop outs and the recorder stopping and me having to restart the recording...very aggravating.
