yeah that is the PureVinyl stuff, very cool.
Here's my setup:
Equipment
Nitty Gritty RCM Mini-Pro
Bix Record Player
MG1 Airbearing Tonearm
Grado Reference (Statement .5mv)
AEA Big Ribbon (70db flat gain)
Black Lion Sparrow (ADC)
EMU 1616M (Transport)
Various solid core silver cables
Recording: Wavelab 6
NR: iZotope RX, Algorithmix, Wavelab, or ClickRepair
Dither: Ozone 4 Mbit+
Recording Chain
RCM ( #9 Stylus Cleaner>Zerodust) > TT (speed check w/ Digistrobe) > Grado Ref. Statement> AEA pre> Sparrow ADC (BNC) > 1616M (BNC) > Mini-ITX 80w PicoPSU 45wAMD > Wavelab 6 @ 64bit-float 96kHz
Monitoring (casual listening) is done in Samplitude or Sonar with real-time RIAA applied via VST (11% cpu load w/ EMU ASIO).
Comments
Post-processing workflow: manual click removal, Digital RIAA VST, dither to 24bit > individual FLAC files.
No silence has been removed.
