Re: Recording LP's
Aside from the software mentioned in the MacWorld article mentioned below, there are some freeware programs that will do the job. Coaster is good for recording to hard drive, and I use a free program called sonicworx basic for simple editing (e.g. track clipping etc). Try versiontracker for latest versions of these (don't know if either is built for OSX, but you could still run classic mode for sound recording...). I don't tend to bother with cleanup of LP pops and crackles - usually I'm recording from a pretty good source and, I'm not looking for such a clean sound that I want to buy raygun or whatever. Also, I don't know if Coaster will recieve input via iMic - this is a question I'll have to deal with soon with my newish laptop which lacks sound in. Does anyone have an answer to this? cheers, John Terry Go to your Macintosh friendly library and dig up Aust MacWorld Dec 01 which had an entire article dedicated to this topic. It included suggested software both commercial and shareware and heaps of other useful information. Eugene I would like to record some of my LP records on to CD using my PowerMacG4 and OSX. I have purchased a iMic and it seems to be installed OK but I can't find any information as to how to record to the hard disk so I can then record on to a CD. I have Roxio Toast 5. I am a recent convert to the Mac after many years doing battle with PCs so my present Mac skills are limited. Terry Mercer -- John Bussell ph:93802567 mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]
