With a proven track record of delivering superb quality, technology and performance, Sony pro audio products can exceed the expectations of the most demanding audio professionals, and Sonys Hi-MD recorders are no exception. With Sonys new MZ-M200 Hi-MD recorder, the successor model to the MZ-M100 Hi-MD recorder, Sony takes Hi-MD to a higher level with the introduction of more intuitive recording features, easier navigation, and a more ergonomic design while delivering the same high-quality CD sound and the convenience of recording on the MD format. The MZ-M200 model is the ideal field recorder for radio journalists, musicians, songwriters, and all types of pro-audio applications. This next generation recorder is now Macintosh compatible and comes equipped for the field with a stereo microphone, earbud headphones, 1-line backlit remote control unit, USB uploading software, a rechargeable battery, a carrying pouch, an AC power adaptor and a 1GB Hi-MD disc.

Tracks that have been downloaded from a Macintosh computer to a Hi-MD Walkman using HiMD Music Transfer. Tracks recorded on a Hi-MD Walkman that is not designed for connection to a Macintosh computer. Tracks recorded in MD mode (SP, LP2, LP4, or MONO). When using a Hi-MD Walkman in MD mode, tracks will not appear in the main window. All controls in the main window are disabled when the progress indicator window is displayed. Tracks that were transferred to a Windows computer using SonicStage version 3.1 or older cannot be imported to a Macintosh computer because such tracks are treated as tracks that were transferred from a Windows computer.
Downloading audio data from your computer to the Hi-MD Walkman
You can download MP3- and (depending on your Hi-MD Walkman model) WAV-format audio data from your computer to your Hi-MD Walkman. (See Hi-MD Walkmans that work with Hi-MD Music Transfer for Mac Ver. 2.0 on page 1.) Make sure the disc in the Hi-MD Walkman is not record-protected.
To disconnect the USB cable or remove the disc from the Hi-MD Walkman

It is important that you follow the steps below when disconnecting the Hi-MD Walkman from the computer or removing the disc. If you do not, damage to the data may occur. When Hi-MD Music Transfer is active, start the procedure from step 2.

If there are folders nested within the downloaded folder, each folder is treated as a single group on the Hi-MD Walkman. Hi-MD Music Transfer ignores les other than MP3- or WAVformat les (e.g., Data3.txt).

Other operations

Changing a track or group title
To change a track or group title that appears in the main window, rst select it by doubleclicking on the title, and then type in the new title on the computer keyboard.
Changing the order of tracks or groups
To change the order of a track or group in the main window, rst select the track or group, and then drag it to the desired location.
When downloading WAV-format les
After downloading a WAV-format le, make sure to open and close the lid of the HiMD Walkman or disconnect the USB cable (in accordance with the procedure in To disconnect the USB cable or remove the disc from the Hi-MD Walkman). If you do not, the les will not be able to play on other devices.

Only one track or group can be moved per operation. You cannot move multiple tracks or groups at one time. You cannot move a group into another group. If the disc contains groups with no tracks, those groups are displayed at the end of the main window. For this reason, even if you move a track or a group to the end of the disc, empty groups will still appear last.
Audio data downloaded from a Macintosh computer to a Hi-MD Walkman using Hi-MD Music Transfer cannot be re-imported to the same Macintosh computer. For this reason, you should make double check the contents of the original les before deleting them on the computer. Audio data cannot be downloaded if the disc in the Hi-MD Walkman is record-protected. Audio data that exceeds 2,047 tracks or 255 groups cannot be downloaded. All controls in the main window are disabled when the progress indicator window is displayed. Make sure not to delete the original le on the Macintosh computer while the progress indicator window is displayed. All types of MP3 audio data can be downloaded to the Hi-MD Walkman. However, the types of MP3 audio data that can be played on the Hi-MD Walkman depends on the model. Refer to the operating instructions supplied with your Hi-MD Walkman for details concerning the types that are supported.

Erasing tracks or groups

Select the track or group you want to erase, and then click [Delete] in the main window or press the [Delete] (or the [Del]) key on the computer keyboard. You can select multiple tracks and groups also and delete them at the same time.
Note that once a track or a group has been erased, it cannot be recovered. Make sure to conrm the contents of the selected track or group before erasing it. If you erase a track that has been transferred from a Windows computer using the SonicStage software, the transfer authorization for that track is restored automatically when you insert the disc into the Hi-MD Walkman and then connect it to the Windows computer.
