Title: slow transfer speed on pmd 660
Post by: Taper Chris on May 23, 2015, 07:08:52 PM

I apologize in advance if this has been covered. Any way to speed up the transfer speed on this pmd 660 I'm borrowing? I'm transferring 5.8 gigs from my zoom in 5 minutes, but the Marantz is taking 45 minutes for 1.7 gigs. Thanks!

External card reader.

This is the one I use: http://www.amazon.com/Kingston-Memory-Card-Reader-FCR-HS3/dp/B005ES0YYA/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1432423637&sr=8-1&keywords=card+reader+kingston

My DAW only has USB 2.0 but I can still transfer ~2GB in about a minute. I'd imagine faster if you had USB 3.0 ports available...
