i've used minidiscs as the conduit in the vinyl-to-pc transfer and the results have been quite serviceable.

that's how i do it. whoever said RCA to USB converter.. i didn't know they existed. the cables shouldn't matter, no matter what the vinyl recording isn't going to sound immaculate, which is just an inherent problem with the record, the turntable, the cartridge/stylii, and the mixer.

No one wants to die. Even people who want to go to heaven don’t want to die to get there. And yet death is the destination we all share. No one has ever escaped it. And that is as it should be, because Death is very likely the single best invention of Life. It is Life’s change agent. It clears out the old to make way for the new. Right now the new is you, but someday not too long from now, you will gradually become the old and be cleared away. Sorry to be so dramatic, but it is quite true.

--Steve Jobs (1955 - 2011)

for recording, there can't be a more simple tool than Wavelab. record, cut out the silence, and save.

I've got this tt and it works great.
SoundForge 8 will allow you to clean up the pops and cracks,
but I think it gives it character
