Recording Analog Backups to PC and CD

Seeing as LPs slowly degrade, I wanted to make 96KHz 24bit PCM copies to put on my PC and on CD (for use in the car or when travelling).

What do people recommend as the best hardware and software solutions to use for a Windows computer? I'm also looking to get software that will clean up any aberrations in the vinyl (pops, clicks, etc, etc), so any recommendations for a top to bottom solution would be highly appreciated.

Money is not an issue, so post whatever you think is going to work best. I'm not interested in buying separate digital versions since often the are not mastered the same, and with lower quality than the LP versions fairly often nowadays.

Thanks,

- Jeff

If you really want to do a professional job, all you need is the opposite of a DAC (digital to analog converter). You need an analog to digital converter. These are not hard to find. There are many models/brands available. Just do a search.

Even MSB Technology, maker of the "Link DAC" has made them. See link below.
