For converting LPs to digital, I recommend a piece of hardware. It ignores the sound cards, with all their inherent problems and poor quality. It has an opto-isolator, in order to eliminate ground loop hum between your stereo and the computer.

It's called INPORT, by Xitel. It includes a 30-ft cable for connecting to the stereo or phono preamp (RCA jacks), and a USB cable. I got mine at www.provantage.com for just over $54.50 plus tax. Mfg's site is www.xitel.com. Apparently they've made stuff for Sony, etc.

Quality seems superb. My 33-year old Sony 6065 receiver has a slight 60Hz hum - might be bad power supply - so I might need to get a little phono preamp. It'll take signal from anything with line output. This might even include my Revox tape deck. It won't work coming straight off a turntable - you need the RIAA equalization.

Bundled software (LP Recorder and LP Ripper) is very easy to use. You'll still need something to clean up pops and clicks, if you want.

Hi Folks,

Any duping video tapes to CD. DVD or Windows Media Player/Real Player ? This
involves home videos not pirating "store-bought" video's.

And along those same lines, is anyone familiar with how folks are taking
LP's and turning them into MP3'S ? Again, this would be for turning all my
old LP's into MP3's for personal use.

Thanks !

Chuck
