Beginning of this year, I took on My Big Vinyl Project. The goal is to convert all the vinly LPs I have into CD format to save space at home. I won't save every single record, but most of them. Counting some 850 LPs it's a wast task. So far I finished about 100 records, so keeping that speed it's a 3 year project going on.For this purpost I bought myself a new record player last Christmas, one of those with an USB connector you can plug directly into your computer. It works great and after removing pop, clicks and noise the result is magnificent. But I wish I have had bought this Denon record player instead.
Denon's new DP-200USB turntable is a hybrid vinyl ripper and player, with an USB port to plug in your USB-stick into! The conveniently placed USB port on the front makes it a breeze to digitally transfer over my favorite vinyls to MP3 format with a simple click of a button.
Full description on the encoding tech below:
The included PC software features Audio Waveform Recognition, which checks the first 15 seconds of each track and searches the extensive Gracenote Internet music tracks database to capture the track’s meta-deta (artist, title, etc.). The software also features Auto Track Divide, which notes silent breaks between tracks and automatically inserts a new track tag for each track (you also have the option of doing this manually). The front panel USB port allows connection to a USB flash drive or an external hard disk drive. In addition to the USB connection, the DP-200USB features conventional stereo outputs, which can be configured with or without RIAA equalization, for full compatibility with the widest range of audio components.
You can grab the Denon DP-200USB fully automatic record player with MP3 encoder for EUR190. Bundled software that takes care of organizing the ripped tracks only works with Windows XP and Vista, unfortunately, Mac users will need to hound Denon for some extra support love.
Oh, If I only had the time and the money... I don't have a huge collection, but if you add my records and Linas records, we have two full plastic crates (the old square-sized ones from "back then") and it would be very nice to get those on mp3.
But now we are a family with young kids and as such, I (we) don't have the time nor the money for such extravaganza. I'll guess I'll have to take a raincheck on that one... ;-)
