page, their USB device makes ripping vinyl a piece of cake! Bypassing
the soundcard and utilizing your stereo amp, the INport and its
accompanying software renders crystal clear results. Being an external device
they also claim superior performance by rendering PC component interference a
non-issue.
Unlike a computer soundcard, the Included with your INPort are a recording and track |
The task of ripping each track is made easier with the
included LPRipper. You can record an entire LP or tape as a single WAV file
on your computer, the software auto sets the recording level and will
break the file into tracks ready for conversion to MP3 or burn to
a CD, all unattended. The auto split feature works by calculating
the gap between songs to see if this represents a track mark. You can also
replace any hiss between tracks with silence. The INport will retail for 70
dollars US.
