SONY MULTITRACK MINIDISK RECORDER in Sims Avenue, East Singapore for sale

SONY MULTITRACK MINIDISK RECORDER

The MDM-X4 is Sony's entry into the new digital four-track personal studio market. Since Sony is the licenser of the MiniDisc MD-Data format and developer of the ATRAC compression schemes, it makes complete sense that they must be a player in this emerging business.
The MDM uses a single,140Mb, 2.5 inch magneto-optical MiniDisc and has four tracks, each with up to 37 minutes recording time. You can also record in stereo for up to 74 minutes and in mono for 148 minutes. This is a "random access" recording system as opposed to a "linear", tape-based recording system so you have instant playback of any place in your song without waiting for rewinding and locating. There is complete playback compatibility between Sony, Yamaha and Tascam MD four-track machines. What separates the different machines, besides slight price differences, are the different editing and external synchronization features available from machine to machine and the ergonomic "feel" and design. This "human engineering" dictates how you personally relate to the way that the machines facilitate the recording, editing and playback of your music.
Editing features on the MDM include Song Edit, a way to do song-based editing like copying verses or chorus' and Track Edit that allows individual tracks to be manipulated. Virtual Mix allows you record more than four tracks on the MD disc for multiple, alternative takes, etc.
Like the Yamaha MD-4, the MDM has a MIDI Out jack that sends out MTC (that's MIDI Time Code) but in addition, the MDM also has a MIDI In jack so that MMC (that's MIDI Machine Control) can be used, i.e. the MDM can either "slave" to your sequencer/multi-track or it can act as "master" that your sequencer can follow. (I would presume, therefore, that two MDM's could be "synched" together...another easy way to song collaborate between two MDM owners) The on-board mixer has ten inputs total: four mic/lines, one stereo input and two stereo aux effect returns. There are two aux effect sends and there is also an external control jack for foot-operating the unit's transport controls. Suggested Retail Price is $1,250. http://www.sony.com/
