Amazon.com Product Description
Sony has created a great, compact digital music player with the MZ-RH10 Hi-MD Walkman Digital Music Player. Music is stored on Hi-MD discs -- one GB of storage equals over 600 songs (depending on file format). You can easily expand your music storage with additional discs. They are available for only a few dollars, so increasing your storage capacity is affordable. The MZ-RH10 Hi-MD is also backward compatible with the standard MiniDisc media discs.

This player features a unique, six-line EL (organic electroluminescence) display. The attractive EL display makes it easy to see and navigate through title, track, and artist information, allowing you to adjust sound settings with ease. The bright display allows easy viewing in all conditions -- day or night. This recorder also comes equipped with Skip-Free G-Protection technology which provides virtually uninterrupted playback of your music. Music on the go has never been better!

Sony had the digital music lover in mind when they built this digital player. It is highly compatible with your PC. With the included software you can transfer files from your PC to the MZ-RH10, and vice versa, at a break-neck, 100x transfer speed. And while you're doing this you won't have to worry about your digital music player's battery life -- the USB cable will power the unit when transferring music. Speaking of battery life, you can expect up to 33 hours of continuous playback with included nickel-metal hydride rechargeable battery.

If you already have extensive music libraries, use the included software to store and play back your collection of MP3s. On the other hand, if you're just getting into digital music and downloading, Sony's ATRAC format provides higher sound quality with smaller sizes than many competing formats. This enables you to store more music and have longer listening times. The system also allows you to play back the most popular Internet audio formats, including WMA and WAV files, with quick, easy conversion to ATRAC.

Sony just keeps on bringing you the hits with this device. Another great feature is the self-recording upload function. Use the line-in jack on the Hi-MD player to transfer and archive your favorite, old tapes to low cost Hi-MD discs. The mic input is a perfect solution for self-recordings, school concerts, or meetings. With your music or recordings stored on Hi-MD discs, you can transfer the files to your computer and covert them to WAV format. A file saved in WAV format provides you with the flexibility to import the file into a music burning software program where you can burn the file to a CD-R/RW. The MZ-RH10 from Sony is not only a digital music player, but also a mini-recording studio in the palm of your hand. You can capture and digitize almost any sound or old-school recorded format with the mic input and line-in jack!

What's in the Box
MZ-RH10 Hi-MD Walkman, nickel-metal hydride rechargeable battery, charging stand, dry battery case, AC power adaptor, digital cable, Walkman earbuds, SonicStage software, one GB Hi-MD disc, and USB cable.

3 out of 5 stars It gets worse the longer you have it   February 29, 2008
I bought another MD player becasue my old one broke and I have a huge collecction of MDs. Id prefer a new MP3 player.

It was great the first year. The second year the remote went bad, which is not digital. It would have been better if it was digital like others I have had. It cost $50 to replace. The shock proof performance degrades over time. Not sure why that would be but after 3 years it has become VERY sensitive.

Its an attractive MD player, its great but for the price......look somewhere else.



5 out of 5 stars Some clarification...   December 25, 2006
 1 out of 1 found this review helpful

I have to disagree with the reviewer Stafford Hunter. The player has several recording speeds (similar to VHS). If you record on the lowest compression speed, then yes you will only get and hour and a half of recording time. But if you change the setting to record on the highest compression speed (Hi-LP) then you can get about 30 hrs or so of recording time onto a 1 gig disk. I've had my Sony MZ-RH10 for almost a year now, and I've recorded lots of rehearsals, concerts, and have burned many CDs from the recordings! I love it! The clarity of sound this recorder gives is much better than other recording devices I've used in the past. It's an excellent device for musicians to use and I highly recommend it!!


2 out of 5 stars (NOT) Waste of money for live recording!!! (correction)   December 9, 2006
 3 out of 4 found this review helpful

Basically, I think its a good MD recorder. But, I'd advise
all musicians to NOT assume (like I did) that recording
LIVE music (via mic) to a 1 gig disc was going to give you
seemingly an endless amount of recording time on this MD
recorder. You can only record about 1hr + 34min of LIVE
music(via mic) to a 1 gig disc. etc...

*****Correction****************

4-Stars!!!
The manual says that it can only record in HD mode (which would be 1 1/2hr on a 1 gig MD disc), but for some reason I could change it to SLP/LP which lets you record many hours of recording on each disc. Its great...now!!!



5 out of 5 stars Quality Audio recording on the go   April 28, 2006
 4 out of 4 found this review helpful

I am very happy with this product.

Hi-MD is a great improvement over regular MD. It is easy to record and listen to Mp3s, WAVs and WMAs. The device is beautiful too...I couldn't be happier.

I bought this for recording interviews, but also use it as my MP3 player. It's fine for that, but what I am so happy with is the sound quality of my own recordings. I have been able to easily transfer uncompressed audio recordings to my Toshiba laptop and convert them to .WAV format using the latest version of Sony's Soundstage software (which can be downloaded for free). The portability factor just can't be beat.

The fact that there is a specific MIC in (not a line in) makes this a great improvement over other models.



4 out of 5 stars READ THE FINE PRINT- You *CAN* upload mic recordings   April 6, 2006
 9 out of 9 found this review helpful

A previous reviewer, who doesn't appear to actually own this product, claimed that you cannot upload your recordings from the RH10 to a PC. This is not true. All Hi-MD recorders allow USB upload of mic and analog line recordings. You can also record in PCM and upload in Wav format! No matter which Hi-MD recorder you buy, be sure to download Sonic Stage 3.4. You'll be a happy camper.

If you're a Mac user, you should get an M100 or M10. These will only allow USB upload of PCM recordings to Wav on a Mac. Sonic Stage will not work with Mac, but these units are still useful in the limited way I've just described.
