Reliable media for audio archives
MiniDisc is a non-contact digital audio format employing magneto-optical technology. Therefore, repeated use has virtually no effect upon performance. It also resists even strong magnetic fields which would ruin a tape recording. These factors make MiniDisc an excellent choice for audio archives.
Quick Random Access
Sound effects, musical themes, commercial messages, and announcementscan be recorded in stereo or mono on up to 255 tracks for individual, rapid access. Playback begins immediately, without the delay of tape formats. Maximum recording/playback time is 74 minutes.
Professional quality
The block error rate (BLER) of the PRMD series remain extremely low, unaffected by even one million erase/read/write cycles. The PRMD series have a BLER ten times better than that of the consumer MD, and comes in a CD-type case, with professional index sheet and label sheet.
