I decided to get a few of my albums which I only had on vinyl onto my computer. But how??

I purchased an American Audio, Audio Genie II for £24 on Amazon.co.uk. Ordered a 7 pin DIN socket to 2 Phono Plugs adapter from steve@soundsheavenly and downloaded the most recent edition of Audacity software.

I used a Beogram 6500/MMC2 combination as the front end and gave it a go.

The results are really quite astonishing for such a low cost A to D converter. The clean up routines in the software are extensive and easy to use.

I'm chuffed.Yes - thumbs up

Regards Graham

I like mine with the CD Spin doctor software, but I am always either too busy or too lazy to use it.

I am using the tape output from the Beomaster, straight into my interface (Zoom R16 8 channel recorder) - recording in 24 bit, 44.1 kHz sampling rate. Some processing is done in Cubase 5 or Audacity, with the final result exported in 24 bit .flac or ogg vorbis Smile

Vinyl records, cassettes, open reel, valve amplifiers and film photography.
