Teac Kit
For Computer/Music Buffs. I have a Samsung x20 laptop.?
I also have about 200 Vinyl Lps, many of which I would like to transfer onto CDs.
I could buy that machine by TEAC which plays LP’s and CD’s and lets you record Vinyl onto CD format.
Or I could do it through my laptop.
2 Questions,
(1) would I get better results through the laptop and if so what extra kit must I buy. ( I have no turntable. . amps . . ZILCH
(2)If I get the TEAC machine will all the scratches still be there. I believe that through the laptap I can use progs to reduce if not eliminate them.
Please help my Leon Russell LP’s haven’t been played for years!!!!
Thanks for your advice
Without looking at the Teac machine..I will tell you why it will be better to use your laptop.
1) Yes….the teac machine will pick up any cracks & pops present on the surface of the record. It may possibly have some form of noise reduction, but it chances are it will not, and even if it does won’t be able to remove them. There is also the cost and time of having to burn everything to audio cd, then copying this disc onto your computer for archiving and/or further editing.
Your laptop is the better option, providing you get a decent external soundcard. There isn’t much space in a laptop and for most users…audio & visual functions are secondary. You’ll be lucky to get a 16 bit 44.1 KHz converter. This is cd standard but isn’t good for recording.
Something like an external Creative SoundBlaster card would do, but there are probably cheaper solutions. Bear this in mind, as you will need to buy a turntable & amp as well.
Which brings me to my next point. If you buy a deck, make sure it feels sturdy and has a good suspension, otherwise it will pick up any vibrations caused by daft things like walking around your room.
Ideally a turntable that can connect as a line source would be better, as the more direct the signal path the better the sound should be. Most decks still only have phono connections, and therefore need an amp to earth and gain the signal up to a usable level.
You can get a good quality amp for about £100. Cambrindge Audio used to do a good entry level unit for this kindof price.
Finally down to the software. Sony Soundforge is the standard audio editor for PC’s. You can see your track as a waveform and any clicks, cracks or pops can normally be identified. You can repair this by copying the other channel (if the click is only on one side) or interpolation. Sony also do a pack for recording and restoring vinyl..but I wouldn’t bother buying it. Soundforge & the vinyl pack are common across P2P networks.
