Digital XL7 and SP808

Digital XL7 and SP808

2002-01-17 by shredbabe

Hi,

I want to digitally record from the XL7 (out SPDIF) and from a CD-
player (digital out). 

And also playback digitaly from the SP808 and record to the digital 
in of the Philips dual player/burner.

Is this possible with the OP1 board?

Regards,
Richard

You mean you want to record all three at once digitally?  I don't think 
you'd be able to do that with the OP1.  It's been awhile since I used my 
Sp808, but you could route the CD player and the XL-7 into the sp808 via 
regular analog cables, and then connect the digital out of the sp808 into 
the CD Burner.  The sp808 list is your best bet for this question. 

BTW, did you know you can upgrade your 808 into the EX version for free? 
The OS from the EX version works just fine in the reguler 808, and you can 
swap out the internal 100MB Zip drive for a 250MB one too!

Thanks, but I bought the Ex (just because of the colors....).

I ask the question the 808 list.

Regards!

Where did you get anything about erasing and formating Zips from my post? 
Not sure I understand what you mean.  Do you mean performing a full erase 
on a 100MB disk inserted into a 250MB drive?  I worked for 4 months with 
an "User Installed" 250 drive in my sp808, and I still used my 100MB disks 
just fine.  They were perfectly functioning, even with Full Erase 
operations.

This is not entirely the case.
 
Performing a 'full erase' on a 100 meg disk will destroy the disk. You can 
'quick format' only.
 
However, upgrading your disk to the 250 one (or >any< ide sized drive, 
removable or not) is really cheap right now.

Actually, I was refering to 'full erase' using a 100 meg zip drive (the original kind), using the upgraded. If you replace the drive with the 250 version, then your 808 becomes identical to the EX model.
