| Question on using Vinyl Studio Jeff - You are correct - the original file, vsfile and .crd files stay in the original folder and the output files (the tracks) go into the JRiver folder. The track files are independent of VS, just like CD rip files. Once you create them, they ar... | |
| Question on using Vinyl Studio Glad to help. I am a real fan of Vinyl Studio. And the price is hard to beat.You can get a trial version of VS. If I remember correctly you can do the whole process just when you write out the track files the corrections are not saved. And you get... | |
| Question on using Vinyl Studio You can certainly output Flac files with the tags that VS handles set directly into your library folder. That is what I do. The tags it handles are shown in the helpfile screen. You cannot add other tags. Those would have to be added by your playe... | |
| Question on using Vinyl Studio mapman - I can usually input a raw file, break it into tracks and tag it is 15 minutes or so. This is greatly simplified by using VS's ability to look up albums in the discogs.com database. It has a remarkable numbers of albums in it. If VS finds... | |
| Question on using Vinyl Studio Let me go over how I use VS and some details about the various files. Maybe more than you want, but here it is. The basic concept is that VS accesses you input file but then outputs separate track files that you use with JRiver. Those track files ... | |

| Did you hear Adele at the Grammy's? She clearly had major technical problems, but the whole show had problems. None of the performances I heard were good. I am not sure who they are mixing the sound for, but it is not the TV audience. I could not count the number of times I thought ... | |
| Most unusual/mesmerizing female voice. It’s like if Grace Kelly could sing.Actually she does, and plays a mean sax also, but I think you referring to someone else :)Second for Kelly Flint, who unfortunately has fallen out of sight. And Stacey Kent is a favorite. Wish she was back in th... | |
| LP to Flac The Linn would work. You also need a phone stage either separate or in a preamp.You can use a sound card in a PC, but the quality is often not very good. You can get an external A to D converter from anywhere from $100 to many thousands. You can ... | |
| I have seen some Interesting comments about Mcintosh lately wolf_garcia - I agree in general, but, that said, I just replaced a 5AR4 (Mullard) after only 8 months in my pre-amp. I now have a backup, just in case. | |
| What used speaker would you buy with $20,000-$35,000 and why? Sonus Faber Stradavari. They do not come up often but when they do they are often in the mid to low 20's. They are a wide format, so you need some room for them. Glorious, from the old Sonus Faber line. But, then again, I am an old Sonus Faber ... | |
| Best CD to FLAC software and FLAC playback software You can use JRiver just as it comes without a lot of complexities. If, however, you want to do something like create multiple different views with multiple lines of thumbnail text sorted in particular ways it can get quite complicated. It has a f... | |
| Best CD to FLAC software and FLAC playback software If you use JRiver Media Center, you can just rip with that. I find it does a fine job on most disks. On some damaged disks, dBpoweramp does a better job. JRiver is a great tagging program.Honestly, EAC is a great program, but it is no longer in d... | |

| FLAC vs WAV I believe, Reference Recordings primarily produces HDCD discs. I would not be surprised if he used wav in his processing. He would have little reason to compress data while doing the engineering. Can you point to a reference about Johnson preferri... |
