| 633994 | 2008-01-29 02:05:00 | I have used cool edit pro 2 (now adobe audition) which is quite advanced with several filters, reverb processes,and pre-made equalizers, and more. One good feature was the noise removal section, which you could apply several sensitivities to effectively remove any noise, hiss, pops and clicks. Also you can create a batch mode (macro) process, which you could apply to several tracks, once they were queued up, and then run the batch program to automate the process to add reverb, amplification, remove noise and so on. There is also the much simpler Spin It Again (www.acoustica.com) program, which can split the tracks when copied, edit, and noise and hiss removal... |

I did buy and keep meaning to compare with Audacity but have not done so yet http://www.polderbits.com/ And filters to improve the sound quality of your recordings. The Editor has an "Advanced" button that enlarges the Editor window and offers 3 filters; * A Click and Crackle filter for cleaning vinyl records * A Noise filter for cassette tape recordings * An Equalizer to enhance the sound quality for all recordings All available filters can be switched on and off independently and act immediately (or in "real-time") on your recording. At any time you can switch between the original recording and the results of the filters so you can quickly compare the sound. Misty :) |

| 633996 | 2008-01-29 03:45:00 | I just used audacity yesterday to copy my first LP, I found it easy to use. The result was good but a few songs towards the end became highly deteriorated later I released that the needle had become like my grandma's chin (that is covered in a light fuzz...note clean the needle regularly). Apart from that I highly recommend it. I used a turntable connected to an amp to my soundcard. Easy as. |

| 633997 | 2008-02-01 04:00:00 | I spotted a device a couple of days ago called AC1-USB Audio Capture Device available from surpluselectronics and styll.co.nz. I just wondered if anyone had tried one of these and what they thought of it. My problem is having no pre-amp on my record deck (Thorens TD 160 Super) and just trying to move all the neccessary gear from the lounge to the computer room is a major headache. They didn't call the Thorens "the brick" for a joke back then- and setting it up then re-setting can take quite a bit of time. Assuming AC1-USB does what it says it does all I really have to move is the turntable. Any feedback would be appreciated. |
