Welcome Licorice Pizza (LP) lovers! Setup guides and Vinyl FAQ.

Here is what I do.

216.206.81.10

I use a PC (HP 800mhz/128mb Ram/ 80gb HD / WinME) and a stand alone ADAC (M Audio- Audiophile USB).

Software: Audacity it is FREE !!! It will support up to a 24/96 digital signal. You can cut, paste, adjust, tweak, eq to your heart's content. Downside is that the software can not automatically look for song breaks. You have to do that manually, however you can add cue marks to a continious file to create CD tracks.

My procedure is to record each LP side as 1 file, setting the level to peak at -3 to -5db. Save the file. Then come back later to process. Open up the saved file, highlight to create a track, then export as a saved track- with title. That's it.

Audacity does not work quickly, saving and exporting a large file can take several min on my computer. It also helps to reboot your computer before beginning a recording session as well as turn off any programs running in the backround.

Best,

Ross
