Here's a dumb question - do PCs not have a mini mic input like Macs do? I'm on a Mac -- usually just run my turntable through my preamp (or you can use your receiver) into a rca-to-mini adapter and plug that straight into my laptop. The software I use is something I bought ages ago called CD Spin Doctor - it came with the Toast software I bought to burn cds before itunes was around, but I've heard there's all kinds of other audio import software you can nab for nothin'. The point to all of this I guess is that all I had to really buy hardware-wise was an RCA/mini adapter. If you need USB there are also RCA/USB adapters that you can buy probably cheaper than the cost of a USB turntable.

Sure, most PC sound cards have a 1/8" stereo LINE IN input and you can run a preamp directly into it with an adapter cable. The only problem is the analog-to-digital circuitry on generic PC sound cards typically blows, plus on-motherboard and PCI sound cards tend to pick up noise from inside the case. Offboard USB/firewire devices generally have higher quality components and don't have the stray noise problems. ------------------------------ End of bomp-digest V2003 #1770 ****************************** ===================================================================== You've been reading bomp-digest, the digest version of the Bomp list.
