Wow, I still have this bookmarked. An EXCELLENT write up. When I started ripping lps back in 2000, I used this as a resource and it helped me out a lot. I also use CoolEdit2000. What an awesome program - too bad it got sucked into Adobe. Anyway, use cliveb's guidelines as a starting point and you cannot go wrong! As a matter of process, what I used to do was batch each step. I would spend a few days just recording sides and saving the wave files. I would do that for about 10 lps. That's pretty mechanical but is time consuming since it requires walking away and coming back every 20min. or so. Since CE2K has a clip indicator, I'd rerecord if a clip occured. Then, I would sit down with all of my recorded sides and edit out the needle drops and pickups and fade-in the starts of each side and fade-out the ends of each side. Then I would split the wave file into individual tracks. I happened to use the audio clean up plugins. There were some cases where it made things worse, but most of the time it was an improvement. I archived the unprocessed files so I could always go back if so desired. Good luck. It can be tedious, but very satisfying and a lot of fun. -- maggior ------------------------------------------------------------------------ maggior's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=9080 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=40894 _______________________________________________ ripping mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/ripping
