I have been recording sketches for songs live onto a SOny Mini Disc MZ R37. I would now like to put them onto my G5 (into Garageband). Can anyone tell me how I go about doing this?

Plug your mini disc into your mac via a soundcard that has a stereo mic input. Open new basic track in GB. Arm for recording.(Red button on track mixer). Click record,and start your minidisc.

Thanks.
Will have to buy a sound card. Meanwhile, is there anything that can be done with the optical in/out plugs? (what are they for anyway?) |

mpnow,
If your minidisc recorder has ADAT optical out,then you can use the G5 optical in to record your music. Also, if your mini disc has stereo headphone (3/8") out, you can use the audio line in jack on the G5 to get the sound into Garage Band. The specs for that mini disc show: IN: line/optical, mic. OUT: line, headphone. There is more information available on Sony's Support Site for the R37. Good luck. peace, deacon -------------------- |
