#VINYLSTUDIO FOR WINDOWS REVIEW PLUS#
I already have a record that I didn’t notice something on that I’m refunding this week, plus I’m reimbursing the buyer his expense for mailing it back to me, so I’m losing double the shipping cost! I want the buyer to know exactly what they’re getting. I can’t help send my nieces and nephews to college like that. If it’s for one I’m going to sell, I’ll definitely leave the pops in it, because the buyer will hear it when he or she plays the record anyway, and I don’t want to refund money and get a record back that I still have to sell, plus have a dissatisfied customer. If a record has pops and noise, I’ll just not record it for myself. They don’t work completely, and leave the resulting output sounding funny.

They never seem to work well, like the ones that try to remove vocals. I haven’t tried the click-removal tool in Audacity, but I’m usually not impressed by those sorts of things. Would you to process (remove clicks and generally clean up the audio) or simply capturing the raw rip! When you say “change the input setting” do you mean the input device in Audacity? If so, it only has three USB input devices, and I have it set to the only one that works.

Yes, I tried the two USB ports on the front of my PC and one on the back. Yes, I did try the PC’s mixer, but the only input level for which it has a slider is the “PC mic” that plugs into the pink mini stereo jack, and not the USB port. Have you tried the main PC mixer to lower the input level to audacity?Īlso could change the input setting or try a different port.
#VINYLSTUDIO FOR WINDOWS REVIEW SOFTWARE#
I would like to try different software (preferably not freeware), and I am willing to purchase a new turntable that uses different software if necessary. I have tried to delete and re-install the Audacity software, and I am using the latest version (which I actually think is the problem, but I can’t find an earlier version). I have checked the Web sites for ion and Audacity, and of course, they are low-budget products, so the only “help” they give are user forums, and none of the users have an answer to the problem. It may be my daughter’s webcam software for her home school, or a game, or something else, but I’m not going to delete programs just to explore the possibility that another app is causing the issue. Something has somehow changed how Audacity functions on my computer.

If I lower it to 0.00, obviously I get nothing. I swapped out the turnable and connected only the Crosley to the PC, only to get the exact same problems.Įven with the input level set to 0.01, the signal is still mostly in the red and is clipping. The ion turntable didn’t show up in Audacity, so I had to select a microphone as the device and set the input volume to 0.01 or it would feed back and be completely off the meter. I set up the ion next to my computer in my office to record some of his vinyl and to upload samples to Discogs, and the Crosley in my living room with all of the records (because it has internal speakers) to listen to and grade the condition of each record.

He also had an ion iTTUSB USB turntable and a couple of Technics SL1200s that I brought home. It worked great! I used the Crosley sporadically over the years, only recording about a dozen albums, with the last one being about a year ago.Ī couple of months ago when my best friend and former DJ partner passed away, his wife asked me to come to Northern California and take all of his records, which I’m selling on Discogs to try to contribute to his four kids’ college funds.

When I used Audacity with the turntable connected to the computer, the turntable showed up as a “USB device” and I set the input volume to about 8.5 or 9 so that the signal would occasionally peak almost in the red. If you want the reason for my request, here’s the situation:Ībout nine years ago, I got a Crosley CR249 USB turntable and it came with a copy of Audacity to record records. Do any of you out there in the Discogs community use a USB turntable with audio software that’s not Audacity?
