Vinyl to CD on a PC
Dave Plowman (News) wrote: In article , Mr.T MrT@home wrote: And whilst I would rather have a non compressed format, a decent MP3 will be no worse than a vinyl transfer in most cases. The CD you make at home should sound exactly like the LP since it's been made using the same turntable, etc. It will be close but if you want real transapency move up to 24/96 or higher. If it doesn't, you're doing something wrong. Or not. Of course many long since disposed of their turntable etc but not LP collection then decide to digitise some of it using something bought off ebay and wonder why it doesn't seem to sound quite as good as they fondly remember.. The better the playback equipment the better the digital copy. No doubt about that. Scott |

What a load of crap. Scott |

You are so consumed by anti analog biases that it takes over your judgement. Scott Scott, I disagree: OK. 1) My TT gear definitely does not suck (EMT 948 and AEG TRS9000) Not my cup of tea but it doesn't suck. 2) I am not near deaf 3) I enjoy playing vinyl But: the quality of my CDs generally (with one or two exceptions out of many hundred of CDs)is better than all my vinyl. Even when I have the same recording on CD and vinyl, I enjoy the CD more. Quieter, less distortion, no pops. OK then there may be a very particular taste in colorations that you have. But it says bias to me. What CDs and LPs are we talking about here? Certainly we are not talking about anything out of the London?Decca classical catalog. There CDs are terrible for the most part while their vinyl, if you get the right versions, is stunning. I'm talking night and day difference here. We can't be talking about the Blue note catalog. Until recently their CDs were abortions of the originals. Can't be talking Riverside/fantasy jazz catalog either. What about popular music? Simon and Garfunkel, Cat Stevens, Yes, Genesis, Led Zeppelin, CCR, CSNY, The Guess Who, Roy Orbison etc etc? Ceratainly there are some CDs that out perform any vinyl version of a given title but IME they are in the vast minority. Two out of several hundred? I think there is a problem there. Frankly I would say the same if one were to say the same in favor of LPs. Of course one has to seek out the best of each format. In most cases there are more than one version of any given title on CD and on LP. AND the equipment makes a very big difference. With all due respect, your rig, while collectable, is not exactly high end in performance. No, it doesn't suck but it is not what I would use for sound quality. Not by a long shot. If you don't find the same, then that's your opinion and privilege to hold such opinion, but it is far from universal. Of course it isn't universal but amoung those audiophiles I know that actually pay close attention to the sound quality of the vast array of issues of popular titles, vinyl is largely the over all winner in most cases.

I also want to transfer some of my favourite vinyl to CD. Can I do this with a basic soundcard + software or would I do better to buy a more advanced soundcard maybe with its associated software? Sound card - pretty much anything if you just want to get pings and chimes when you get new emails. Unless they otherwise unobtainium, the novelty of LP-CD transfers will wear off after approx 3 LPs.

wrote in message oups.com... No. you were the fool who insisted that all LPs were mastered with summed bass and HF roll off. Not a foolish claim. Sunming the bass below 50-100 Hz or more is a pretty good idea. Putting a HF rolloff helps save cutter heads from overheating and makes the recording easier to track. Are you back to make some more ridiculous claims? Where is the first ridiculous claim? |

Vinyl to CD on a PC

I expect that may gradually change as more music finds it's way onto MP3 downloads. And whilst I would rather have a non compressed format, a decent MP3 will be no worse than a vinyl transfer in most cases. the novelty of LP-CD transfers will wear off after approx 3 LPs. Especially if you subsequently hear a real CD of the album. I suspect your turntable/cartridge and record condition plays a large part in your dissatisfaction though. No. geoff |

And I'm willing to bet that nobody ever saw one that did on a second playing. d -- Pearce Consulting http://www.pearce.uk.com -- Posted via a free Usenet account from http://www.teranews.com |
