Subj: [kl] alternate recording technology

We have had a number of discussions about recording to mini-disc, or to
the computer hard drive, etc. I would like to hear some comments and
discussion about the technology of recording directly to CD-R or CD-RW.
Specifically, I wonder how people like the Superscope PSD300 in
comparison with the Sony mini-disc recorder.

The Superscope machine seems to have several interesting capabilities.
In playback, you can vary the tempo without changing the pitch, or
change the pitch without changing the tempo. It also has a built-in CD
duplicator. It has an internal microphone, but also has XLR and 1/4"
microphone/line inputs. In summary, it appears to be very flexible and
very useful.

Has anyone used it? How is the quality of recordings as compared to the
mini-disc system?
