Vinyl collection, now what?
Please understand this forum mostly features somewhat fanatical analog lovers. Your request is reasonable in that you wish to copy your uncles collection to a format you know. You may be seen as a heretic to some here so expect a bit of pushback. ;^) Would you consider buying a turntable and using the LP's as they were intended? Perhaps your uncle had a deck? |
If you want to end up digital it’s much easier to find the digital files already edited and declicked or sourced from tape. If you want to archive the real sound of those records you need ~2-3k of record player, an $800 DSD recorder, an editing program and learn how to use it. You’ll still lose plenty SQ by the time you drop to PCM for editing. Even Sonoma is not pure DSD editing. https://www.realhd-audio.com/?p=1235 Not gonna happen. Sell them to someone that appreciates them like your late uncle did. If you have Sheffield Direct To Disc platters they’ll bring in $50 to $100 each. Don’t even get them near a cheap USB table. |
