[opensuse-factory] 33 1/3RPM to wav
Hey Group; I am about to embark on a job helping someone to get a 33 1/3 RPM old audio record (as if you could find a new one. Question number one is - I don't recall a true line level stereo input on PC sound card. I do recall a AUX/CD stereo connector on the card or a 1/8" stereo Line IN (at least I would like to see one) that can accept a line from a HIFI type amp stereo line out. From there I would have a linux mixer (qamix, kmix or the like) play back over the speakers that signal. From a mixer I could create a audiofile.wav. Question #2 Anyone have knowledge from that point? I would ultimately like to burn the audiofile.wav to a CD Even better capture the music on www.sky.fm/smoothjazz which amarok does so well. -- 73 de Donn Washburn 307 Savoy Street Email: " n5xwb@hal-pc.org " Sugar Land, TX 77478 LL# 1.281.242.3256 Ham Callsign N5XWB HAMs : " n5xwb@arrl.net " VoIP via Gizmo: bmw_87kbike / via Skype: n5xwbg BMW MOA #: 4146 - Ambassador " http://counter.li.org " #279316 Did you know?

Have a look at audacity as a starting point to experiment with. The MIC plug is stereo, but I don't know if the INPUT line on any sound card is stereo. Regards Sid. -- Sid Boyce ...

They should be. I have yet to have a single sound card where the line input was anything but stereo. The way I would do this would be to use a couple of phono leads from the HIFI line-out. Plug these into a phono-to-stereo 1/8" adapter, which is then plugged into the line-in on the sound card. Once the physical connections are made, make a test sampling with Audacity to make sure everything's correct. Finally, either sample the whole LP in one go and then copy each track from the big sample, or just sample one track at a time. I'd probably sample a track at a time, until I was sure everything was fine. After that, if I was doing multiple LPs, I'd sample the whole LP and extract the tracks from that.
