old record players need something called a "preamp" to boost the signal enough for an ordinary amp to pick it up...
its likely that you are missing one... can you hear the record using headphones?? if so then the preamp is probably inbuilt... rgds Frank -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]]On Behalf Of Vahur Lokk Sent: Tuesday, 28 January 2003 4:51 PM To: Mandrake Newbie Subject: [newbie] Playing LPs in Linux Hello! I happen to have a rather largish LP collection gathering dust for almost a decade since the player broke. Now I thought it would be cool to somehow digitize it all and acquired old grammophone (is this the right word?). Connected it to my soundcard. But nothing. No sound in speakers, no sound in files saved (K Sound Recorder used). So where to look for mistakes? And what kind of software I actually should use for my purposes? Wahur
