Re: New Fade Effects (poll)

I don't like either - you're right they both sound a bit abrupt.

Re: LP conversion sound quality, can you recommend improveme

I haven't been able to get much input/gain control off the iontt to see if that helps, I already was recording with the gain on the tt down all the way. But seems to still be peaking. It seems to me if that can't be controlled in some way, then the iontt isn't going to work. Some of the ION models ...

Re: LP conversion sound quality, can you recommend improveme

Since I already have this preamp, would the ART Phono Plus then be overkill as I wouldn't need the preamp circuit? Or would you recommend the soundcard like the one you have (Edirol UA-1Ex, if it can be found) in this case or is there an advantage to the combined unit and taking my preamp off line ...

Re: Updating Sound/Silence Finder

Thanks very much Edgar. Silence Finder: Place a Point Label a specified distance in front of the "end" of the silence. Strange isn't it :? Let me read that again; "A specified distance in front of the end of the silence" - In other words, "a specified distance before the so...

Re: LP conversion sound quality, can you recommend improveme

Would an external usb sound card help or is the quality being killed by the turntable? It does have RCA outputs as well. I have a DAC between the normal turntable and receiver, should the audio be captured there? It just has RCA stereo outputs as well of course. UPDATE: I just read your original po...

Re: LP conversion sound quality, can you recommend improveme

But the recordings are still worse than I would have expected even listening to the best version right on Audacity. It sounds like two things - one might be mostly vinyl static/pops, and the other is a stronger general distortion when the songs really kick in (especially with guitars and drums, but...

Do you see it as a regression?
Personally no - but then I never have a use for those "cross-fades"

Re: New Fade Effects (poll)

Briefly ... Pro Fade Out I have been using this for a fair while and it quickly became my fade-out of choice for working with music - I am keen that other users should easily be able to share in this easy to use effect that produces such excellent results. Adjustable Fade v30 Though I will probably ...
