There will always be some sort of interference that creeps into the recording. Another way to fix this is to record the line noise as a wave and create noise profile from that wave. Then apply noise reduction to your song using the line noise profile. As long as you don't get too aggressive with the reduction it should clean up nicely.

Subject: Re: [KLF] vinyl to digital... One problem with using your stereo instead of a separate pre-amp, is that if you have cable-TV hooked up to your VCR, for example, and your VCR hooked to your home theater, then you will get a hum. I can't tell you how often I grabbed a track back in the bad old good old days of napster and heard the hummming/buzzing. It was a pain to unscrew the cable every time I wanted to record a record. (hehe, typing record a record amuses me for some reason). I like these USB units, or the one with the built-in pre-amp because it just cuts down on the wires and the amount oc circuits that the signals are traveling through. Anyway, looks like a cool unit. I'll probably by one as soon as I pay off my computer :D jr _______________________________________________ KLF mailing list KLF@mailman.xmission.com http://mailman.xmission.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/klf Report list abuse to list-abuse at studio-nibble.com
