Recording/ripping vinyl
Recording/ripping vinyl Posted on: 12.11.2011 by Fredda Klarman I'm on a pretty hefty budget after purchasing my turntables and a few records so I need to make sure if I have this right before I go out and buy. I googled the easiest way to get this done, and if I have it right all I would need is an rca cable leading from my mixer (from line out) to my laptop's headphone jack and some recording software. Just thought I'd confirm whether or not this is correct. | |
| Nisha Latkowski 11.11.2011 | Id recommend you get a phono preamp and hook it up directly to your soundcard and avoid recording through the mixer (most mixers color the sound). found this out after recording half my record collection with a old ass pioneer mixer. |
| Alexandra Nerby 12.11.2011 | Yes, make sure you do the Line In as he said. I'm not entirely sure about the Line out from the mixer...I would have done the booth out or record out... This would be much much easier with a soundcard with an input though. |
| Fredda Klarman 12.11.2011 | okay, then that's all I had wrong? |
| Spencer Kilcoyne 12.11.2011 | Nope - you need to use your laptops mic in, not headphone out (the clue is in the name ...), but if you're using a DVS you're probably better recording internally or using audacity to pick up the soundcard output |
