Not strictly PC, but then everyone needs Music. I've been given a Sharp MiniDisk gadget. MD-MT180H(s). OK I know the headphones are "rubbish" but I want to use it as a sound-recorder, using the "Line i/p" - I'm happy enough interfacing this. The issue is that with a blank disc (not write-protected), I am finding using this m/c very confusing. I've charged the hydride battery (cell 1.2v)...but find the buttons very confusing....if anyone can talk me thro' the operation Rec/Play I'd be most grateful. Note that Sharp website doesn't recognise this product - I guess it's about 2002 manufacture.....but that's hardly "old". Searching the internet provides rather too many blind alleys and frankly I don't trust some of the suggestions. Button ledgends: Rec. Bass Menu/Charge Enter/Sync (large 4-way button seems to adjust Record level and shift (like fast wind?).). Off/Hold (and Stop function) Run/Pause The LCD display is quite small but shows when the disc is "spinning" (and you can just hear it whirling when close to yr ear). I believe this unit works corrctly, but without the "instructions" it's kinda "DIFFICULT" - any suggestions to stop it saying "Bye-Bye" and switching off. (The battery charge indicator shows almost fully charged, so it's not shutting down because of supply.). Thanks, Forum.
