Good advice here. One other argument against digitizing the albums is that it happens in real time, meaning you have to be there and paying attention during the full time it takes to play the record, starting and ending the recording at exactly the right time, saving the file and then doing any necessary editing to the digital file, adjusting start and stop time, attaching or correcting song titles, etc. It can produce good results with the right A/D converter but the effort involved in doing justice to the music wasn't worth it to me.
Vinyl collection, now what?
Hey folks,
Just inherited a really interesting collection of records from my audiophile crazy uncle.
Lots of master and super master pressings, a complete Time Life Records collection, Sheffield track records, etc.
I have never owned a turntable and know very little about them.
Does anyone have experience digitizing tracks to file using a USB turntable?
Any recommendations for or against?
Am I looking at something potentially very expensive?
I haven't looked through everything but saw lots of albums I would like to digitize.
Thanks everyone!
