Ho hum, been there done that. :juggle: Even started a couple of threads about it.

Turntable -> (cheap) preamp -> computer.

Not much geek cred to be had there, Beest. Sorry.

I just plugged it in and it worked, now I need to reord a clip longer than 60 seconds, I'll go and dig out some threads.

winter sport is trying to SEM a snowflake, for me it has to be a fresh fallen snowflake, it has been done, but i think they grew theirs :headshake .

Anyway the beer guys will be on the invite list for my next Microscopy Conference.

I once applied for a job doing microscopy on ice cream for Walls ( Good Humor) the size, shape and distribution of fat particles is what makes it taste creamy (fat in ice cream, who knew!), ice crytals affect the taste too.

X-ray Diffraction of Chocolate is also a career objective.

It's shareware ($40), but I can vouch for Wave Corrector.

It does everything I need:
Record a whole side of an album.
Split it into tracks.
Declick it.
And save the tracks to disk.

I used Amadeus on my Mac when I had to digitize 50+ tapes (of varying states of degradation) for my grandmother. It did a good job splitting up tracks, de-hissing, etc. $40 from Kagi.

I've also heard good things about Audacity (free, oss).

After of going to the trouble of figuring it out, my brother gave me a turntable that plugs into a USB port to record direct, for my birthday.

Audacity is fantastic. It's free and open source, and you can do it all. Digitize any analog signal, get rid of pops within songs and static between songs, and split it up into tracks. Using only Audacity and the CD burning application that came with my PC (Sonic, I think) I put all my old vinyl (at least the ones that I wanted to save) onto CDs and can play them now in my CD payer. Once you have learned the software in an afternoon, it takes about an hour and a half to give each album the full treatment. The only thing I had to buy was an RCA to 1/8th inch cable adapter at Radio Shack to get the signal into the back of the PC from my old turntable and amp setup. I'm a big Audacity fan.

Where's the fun in that?

Audacity rules! :devil:

Leaves more time for sex, drugs, and egg roll. :p
