[P1] Vinyl-records to MP3/CD

[Brian D. Hudson]

A few of my precious old records (Morris Nanton and a 1957
Rachmaninoff-recording are two gems that come to mind) are longing to be
converted into digital format. How do I go about that? What equipment
besides the obvious (record player, iBook (600)) do I need, and what do 
I
have to watch out for?

I purchased Toast 5 Titanium (is there a newer version?) awhile back.  
I also had to purchase an iMic from Griffin that plugged in through the 
USB.  This software also came with a cable to plug into the iMic which 
then plugged into my iBook.  I think it should work with a record 
player.  There might be a lot of other noises that you will have to get 
rid of (the software should do it).  I would just make sure that it 
works with record players as well.
