yes i was saying that miccing it produces bad quality thats why i said he would be better finding it online already, or using seppukus output to input idea.



man i have to teach you kids how to debate, it's a topic i'm very good with, see first you have to have someone opposed to your ideas, then you start a debate, not when someone agrees with your ideas.



sheesh kids these days.

i dont think a vinyl album can have an "output", not really sure how those things output the music, a modern version vinyl player may have an output tho, in which case go that route!



good call seppuku

what do you think the sound comes out of the record itself?



Of course it has a output, RCA jacks, and some new ones

even have optical/ digital coaxial outputs along with optical "needles" instead of the old fashioned diamond needles.



I just run the RCA cables into my soundcard. MY soundcard has RCA,optical,digital coaxial,MIDI,mic, etc.. on it though.



Any basic soundcard has a mic input though, so you can do it thru there

with the right program, I have a record what you hear program as well

as a recorder for the inputs.

umm if i'm not mistaken the first vinyl players the music did not go through a processing method, it had a blade, played the music directly that way... sorry but vinyl was before my time, hell 8-tracks were practically before my time.

The "needle" fit down into a groove that was bumpy on the sides. the bumps

sent vibrations up the needle's shaft causing a magnet or a coil of wire resting

against it to create voltage. Then the voltage is transmitted through the wire to

your reciever where it is greatly amplified and sent to a coil of wire in your speaker.

The varying voltages cause a magnetic field, which then reacts with a large magnet

and vibrates a cone that is attatched to it. Voila, Elvis sings Jailhouse Rock.

all club music is put out on vinyl. No good self respecting DJ uses

CDs. Some people, including myself, like the sound of records on a good

quality turntable. Record sales were on the rise last year by the way.



Kind of how some people love the old tube amplifiers, they get alot of money for tube amps these days.

yea i know they put club music and vinyl and such, never knew that it went thru a digital processor though.



Is it read with a laser now or something? I don't quite get how it could be read and processed digitally, except if it uses a laser in which case it's basically a giant cd .



we have a music store down the street that ONLY sells new vinyls, im going to go in and look at some vinyl players.
