RE: Vinyl recordings can be fixed

Using a CD recorder can be a bit of a pain. I used to have a Pioneer PDR-509 recorder but gave it away. I now have a Tascam digital recorder and use a fairly conservative recording level for all my LPs so I don't end up with clipping. But then I use Audacity to Normalize the recordings to a -1dB amplitude level. You can also even out mismatched channels. If there are a few extreme peaks in a recording that restrict the amount of amplitude adjustment I first use Loudness Normalization to bring the peaks down in amplitude to allow more headroom for the normalizing process. So now I can play my LP recordings at about the same level as CD rips and Hi-Res files.
