Digitizing vinyl

Digitizing vinyl

Whats the best way to do this.

From record out on my mixer?

From pre out off my amp ?

From tape out on amp ?

Any opinions would be great as i’m going to take the plunge and start doing my 20 odd years of house music(arrrg) :slight_smile:

I’ve always used record out on my mixer.

No mixer here mate, deck to amp and then to computer.

Deck to audio8 which is straight to computer.

I ditched my vinyl turntables ages ago. No amp either. Anyone tried those straight up USB Turntables? Totally stupid & crap? I only saved about 30 records but it would be nice to hear them again.

I tried last night all ways with same tune but really could not hear a noticeable difference.
I recorded straight to to uncompressed wave just to make sure.
