Converting LP's to digital files

After making my first TT purchase in over 30 years I now want to convert my albums to a digital format. Is there a good resource for doing this? Something that would describe hardware, software, formats, etc?

Here is my current set up: Linn LP12/Ekos/Vallhalla/AQ FE5 > ARC PH5 > Korg MR-1000 With the Korg, I record at better than Super Audio CD resolution or 1 bit/ 5.6mhz. The Korg software lets you convert that high res master file to your choice of 24/192, 24/96 or 16/44.1 The results, even at 16/44.1 typically sound much better than a commercial CD.

There is always a loss. Still the results can be excellent.
