Hmm. If you’ve got a laptop and a vinyl collection, this gadget might be the way to make CDs out of all those albums. You can edit the sound levels using Audacity, an open-source program supplied with the turntable. I wonder if I could get a 40-foot long USB cable?
Of course, this presumes you’ve got a lot of hard disk capacity; the rule of thumb seems to be one LP equals 500mb. Add in the software required (one-time only, I presume) and you’re using up one GB for the first album and 500mb for each one after that.
