Newbie here, please forgive if my question does not belong.

Does anyone have suggestions on how to transfer mini disc audio onto my G4?
USB2, firewire 400, 800, Mac OS X(10.3.4), 1 gig ram, 1.25 ghz, infinite hard drive space.

It looks like I need a USB on one end and an RCA mini on the other. There is also a port on the mini recorder labelled "optical."

Thank you!

So, my feeling is that if the Sony HiMD machines conform to the Mass USB storage protocol, we mac users should be able to just connect them to our machines and drag files back and forth. As far as I understand it, Sony have said they will work as removable HDs as well so we should be ok.

I was thinking the same thing, but then you have cases where some digital cameras with flash cartridges and USB connections can't be recognized as drives by the OS. So it makes you wonder if the HiMDs would work the same way or turn out in our favor. I'm probably flawed in this thinking but that's just my experience. Don't think we'll really find out until someone shells out the $300 for one of them though tongue.gif
