I've gotten back into vinyl as a main source component . But the computer and iPod are much more convenient. But a lot is only available on LP's and since they do wear out, it only makes sense to archive the vinyl to digital.
The new USB turntables dont turn me on...but my better tt's/carts do , tho they are in a different room.
Q ? do you archive records ? and by what process ?
So far, for me , its been easy to record them to minidisc , carry that disc to the computer where there is a permanent MD player attached to the PC....read it into an audio editor...kill the pops & noise..tweak up the dynamics a little (esp on 60's recordings) ....write it as an MP3 for the pod and also write over the same MD to take it back to the better audio system.
I'm looking to streamline a bit and so am asking about other members methods ?? Thx.
