My trouble is with step number 6. I consistently run into
two audio problems: the stray click or pop and something
that I don't know how to describe other than "buzz". The
clicks are usually not hard to clean up but this "buzz" is
something else altogether. I would appreciate any advice on
how to get rid of it or ideas on what might be causing it.
Here's some more details...


I see a procedural issue. If you are really serious about transcribing LPs,
you should check your playback system out by trying to cleanly transcribe a
good test record. Right now there are only about two modern test records
currently being made, one by Cardas and the other from High Fidelity News
(HFN) . You can also find legacy test records for sale on eBay. As a rule
test records are things that people buy and then don't use much, so used
ones are often suitable tools.

I suspect that the trackability tracks on the HFN test record will shed
considerable light on your problem.
