Copying LPs to CDs

That's what I've found with Last preservative, but not with Gruv Glide. The goal is to reduce friction and heat on the stylus, and the vinyl it scrapes.

I copied an LP onto DAT with my Super Bit Mapping ADC, and transferred that 48 kHz recording into Soundforge XP 4.0 on my computer. With it, it's easy (but time consuming) to EDIT OUT THE "POPS" of the old LP. I'll then downconvert the edited version to 44.1, and burn a CD with it. COOL, HUH?

Stylast treats the stylus, not the record, and it has lubricating oils that reduce friction, at least somewhat.

Well, my experience is the same as Michael Fremer's, and all the other big time experts. If you apply the Stylast correctly to the stylus end only, you don't have to worry about it creeping up into the motor. It never has with mine...there's just not enough of it on there to do something like that. It is completely dry from the cantilever on up. Wet playing might draw whatever is on the record surface up into the motor, but I don't do that, so I'm not worried about it.
