RE: About digital recording of analogue sources

Hi Beppestar,

How you transfer LPs to digital partly depends on what you want to do with the resulting files. If you want to make CDs for use in the car or elsewhere, I'd record at 16/44. If you want high quality files to play from your computer hard drive, then record at a greater bit depth and higher sample rate, such as 24/88 or 24/96.

Whether or not you get a dedicated outboard recorder or an internal card for your computer also depends on what you want to do. Currently, I use an internal card which can be fed from either my stereo system or my mic preamps.

There are some very good cards from Lynx, RME, M-Audio, and others.

:)
