Thank you folks for your adive re "Which CD Recorder". I've decided
to narrow my search. For a variety of reasons, I think a standalone
recorder is a better fit for my needs. I am somewhat concerned that
this may yield only "mid-fi" sound. Does any of you gentle readers
have have direct experience transferring analog (preferably LPs)to
digital using the ALESIS Masterlink 9600, NAD C660, or similar quality
products? If so,what is your opinon of the resulting A/D transfer
sound? Thank you.
I'm familiar with transferring LPs to digital using audio interfaces like
the LynxONE, LynxTWO, and CardDeluxe. I think that they perform on an equal
or better level than the ones you are interested in.
What's to say about LP transcription?
The most important parts of the system, the parts that do the most to set
the final quality level of the transcription, are the turntable, cartridge,
and the preamp.
You forgot one of the most important -- the wet-wash vacuum cleaning machine
(VPI, Nitty-Gritty, etc.) that should be used to clean _every_ record before
transfer. I would rate the importance of this device as anywhere from #1 to
#2 (where the cartidge is #1).
