I should have been clear that I really just use the Roland for the initial capture. The more or less cassette deck like interface and ease of connecting to any arbitrary component makes it easy to use. But I digitize vinyl (three turntables including one just for 78s), cassettes and reels, so it's much easier for me to move the little recorder around than the playback components. Once the initial capture has been made, I immediately copy the WAV to the computer to make it pretty. I'm also a fan of ClickRepair, though I've learned the hard way that you have to listen very closely to what it's doing. Sometimes it's so perfect it's almost like black magic, other times it wipes out as much useful signal as noise. I can't tell the difference between my captures and the records either (well, thanks to cleanup, sometimes the captures are better!) but I was curious if anyone with better ears than mine has any complaints with the standalone devices. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ atrocity's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=16009 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=104038 _______________________________________________ audiophiles mailing list audiophiles@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/audiophiles
