What computer software exists to do this? http://www.usbturntable.biz/how-do-i-convert-vinyl-records-and-audio-cassettes-to-cds-what-computer-software-exists-to-do-this/ http://www.usbturntable.biz/how-do-i-convert-vinyl-records-and-audio-cassettes-to-cds-what-computer-software-exists-to-do-this/#comments Wed, 30 Jun 2010 05:15:35 +0000 admin http://www.usbturntable.biz/how-do-i-convert-vinyl-records-and-audio-cassettes-to-cds-what-computer-software-exists-to-do-this/
I want to make CD-R recordings of some out-of-print cassettes and vinyl records that I already own. This is not to violate copywrite as I don’t go for that – this is simply for personal use. I have some brand new high-end PC’s so, that end I got covered.

What software do I need?
Is it Freeware or commercially available?
How can I enhance the new sound files before creating the CD copies?
Which file format is best?
Should file compression be used?

Do I just plug the playback device directly into my sound card or is there more to it than that?

Or is it better to hire the work done by someone who knows what they are doing?

If you got links to reference websites, that would be great. Thanks.

I know some dj’s, for example ones who play trance music will still use vinyl records why is this? Is the sound quality still as good as say a compact disc?

I have a TON of vinyl records still in their cover and everything. Very good condition, but used. I have beatles, beach boys, frampton, etc. Anyone know a price range I could sell those for?

My husband has a collection of vinyl records that he will not part with. We limited space for these and they are getting in the way. They are currently in orange crates rearranged as best as I can . . . but the collection keeps growing and I can look at the crates no longer. I want to get him shelves to put them in but I want them to look nice and modern at the same time. Where should I look? And I tried ebay they didn’t ahve anything like I want. Oh and I’m not rich so I can’t spend that much money.

I just recently inherited a couple hundred vinyl records and a record player. Some of them are in sleeves, some not. What is the best way to store these records where I can easily access them when I want to listen to them? I don’t want them to get damaged but I don’t want to just box them up and put them in the attic either. I’d like to actually use them.

Well last year I moved into this house, and I found 2 crates of old vinyl records. Right now I’m low on money and I want to sell the records to a record store or something but I don’t know their worth or value or anything. I really don’t want to get ripped off. Does anyone know how I can find out how much each record is worth, or where I could sell it?
I live in Fort Lauderdale, Florida. (Broward County)
Thanks in advance!

I am moving across the country and I don’t want to ship my records, so I was going to take them in the car with me. I need to know if this might be a problem, or what steps I can take to avoid warping the vinyl in the trunk, or the backseat.
