I find the quality of my vinyls recorded to CD far exceeds the quality of bought CD's which have somewhere a compression of some form added to them. The fidelity and analogue sound as far as i'm concerned is a lot better. Yup, many of the re-released CDs are "re-mastered" - and IMHO many ...

All you've done is to right-click in the vertical scaling bar to the ommediate left of the wav-forms in the track. To rectify just left-click in the same place.

Am I just going to need a splitter from the tape out? If you use either the Behrihnger or Edirol USB devices mentioned above the you should just be ab...

I'm sure this method works, except, wouldn't it be just as easy to record the LP into the computer using a high quality line-in port? Basically yes, but if you read the original poster's messages, you will see that his comuter is not physically close to his record deck - and nor does he want to mak...

Yup definitely sounds FUBAR and not fit for purpose. You could try opening it up and adjusting the return mech - but since this is obvviously a new unit that would probably invalidate your consumer rights - so as Koz says, dig out the receipt and send it back to get your money back. And when you rep...

I have 10 reel to reel machines at home. Ah. so thats where the world's supply has all gone ... My R2R died many years ago - but I still hang on to my old faithful Nakamichi cassette deck, optimized for use with TDK-SA. It only gets occasional use these days but I am loath to let it go. In fact it ...

I found the Audacity on line manual. It looks like it is for 1.2. Is there a 1.3 manual available? Yes you can see it here: http://audacityteam.org/manual/index.php?title=Main_Page Just be aware that it's a work in progress and is still incomplete - offers of help to finish it (writing/editing/proo...
