Thanks, Robert, for the suggestion. We don't really need another turntable since we sold off the rest of our LP's and so, once these are copied, we probably don't need to use one. Thanks, though, it's useful information and may help someone else if not me directly. -- Carol carol.pearson@xxxxxxxxxxxx -----Original Message----- From: access-uk@xxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:access-uk@xxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of Robert Stokes Sent: Thursday, June 09, 2005 8:07 PM To: access-uk@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: [access-uk] Re: A LONG SHOT! Hi Carol, My son bought me a Bush Acoustics turntable for my birthday that has a built-in preamp and I am currently recording my late brother's huge collection of mostly operatic albums. I am achieving excellent results, using Sound Forge. My son told me that after making the purchase he saw the same models being sold in a local market at half the price he had paid at Richer Sounds. In your case though, it might be cheaper to purchase a separate preamp. Good luck. Robert. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Carol Pearson" <carol.pearson@xxxxxxxxxxxx> To: <access-uk@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Sent: Thursday, June 09, 2005 7:36 PM Subject: [access-uk] A LONG SHOT! Hi all, I have been in conversation with others on the GoldWave list (some while back) and discovered that the inability to copy from one's record deck to make a good digital recording on the PC is because of preamp, or the lack of it. We have some older LP's that friends are desperate to have and they're no longer available. Does anyone have a good solution for copying these, either so that I can get the kit myself or perhaps ask them, kindly (and for a nominal fee) to copy them for us? If anyone can help this would be great. Thanks, and I trust I'm not stepping on toes by posting this! -- Carol carol.pearson@xxxxxxxxxxxx -- No virus found in this outgoing message.
