Ripping vinyl

[elfs]

Ha! I have the vinyl ripper working, complete with excellent post-processing filters. Mostly it was hardware hacking, but I think I've got it now. My first three tests were Microchip League's New York, New York, Billy and the Boingers I'm a Boinger, and Deathtongue's U Stink But I Love U. Next, I have to see if I can get my Ded Serios Skidmarks in my Shorts off cassette after twenty years.

Omaha wants to see if I can rip from LaserDisk. Oh, man, that's a different science entirely.

What software did you use for post-processing?
(I have a few tapes to rescue....)

How much per record would you charge to do?

Why don't you come over and run the hardware yourself? It's pretty trivial, once you've figured out how to run the adaptive filters. Besides, at the moment I don't think I'd charge; I still have to pay you back for what you spent at the birthday and all the fish I've eaten. *Gryn*

It's not my vinyl, my parents have a couple of linear feet of the stuff. I will have them ship it to me and I'll use your rig sometime.

Is this a linux or windows app?

I currently use gramofile and gwc to capture, split, and clean the wav file. Then use my normal software to burn to cd and make ogg files.

To rip from LaserDisk, you will need a teevee tuner card. Probably the most straightfoward approach would be for you to bring your player to my place, and play the disks into my ReplayTV, and then snarf out the resulting MPEG files.
