Just make sure you get a good pre-amp (at least 90 db s/n ratio) and you should get some real good .wav files. Check my web page at: http://dvautier.home.comcast.net/audio/audio.htm and also a more general discussion at: http://dvautier.home.comcast.net/lp/lp.htm as for burning, there's a bunch of stuff out there. I like DAK to capture and NERO to burn good luck.

Do I need a "straight" pre-amp, or can it have a built in equalizer and funky VU meters (with a 90db+ gain)? How 'bout Radio Shack (USA)? I've bought many things from them over the years, and I've been very pleased.... I may need to download some recording software....but, I want to hear it first!!!! BG (JIF) I prefer to describe myself as a "Contemporary Anthropological Interactive Observer" because it has just the right amount of flair. Besides...."stalker" is such an ugly word. ----- Original Message ----- From: eCoustics.com Message Board To: scalemodeler@mindspring.com Sent: Friday, July 08, 2005 9:55 PM Subject: Pre-amp; turntable to CPU; Audio-Technica cartridge ------------------------------------------------------------ Message Board: Home Audio: Phono: Pre-amp; turntable to CPU; Audio-Technica cartridge ------------------------------------------------------------ Posted by Dominic Vautier on Friday, July 08, 2005 - 09:50 pm: The sound card in your computer takes care of all the analog-to-digital stuff.
