Stuwee, Got any of these ??????

Jerry can this rig record from the stereo? If so, how? Remember I'm a dumbass with these things when you respond........

It can be done, but the onboard audio on the laptop might not cut it for ya, quality-wise. If not, then something like an external USB might be in order.

 

[jbeckva]

But (responding to me own post...)... If it's CD's you want to do as the source, then those can be "ripped" easily with no loss of quality. Records will need a high quality Analog to Digital converter, tho.

I was going to use my usb outboard. OK another question. Is USB 3.0 fast? And how do I get it in my computer?

I only have a couple hundred CDs, but about 8,000 Lps

Not sure how to needledrop (is that what they call it nowdays?). The TT is waaay across the house from the 'puter room, oh shit, I have a laptop now

8,000 LP'S???? Like that wasn't a typo???

 

[speakerman1]

I'm at about 1000 cds and 75 to 100 lps. And it is growing as old bands bring out new music.

Yep, it's fast. But it all depends on what you want to connect. Hard drives at USB 2.0 speed are plenty fast enough, and unless the drive itself can go faster (doubtful) then USB 3.0 won't do any good.

You'd need something like this here...

USB 3.0 Card

I was wondering because I found an External 2 TB HD that has uses 3.0 USB. Is the USB plug different?

Shouldn't be... I believe it's backward compatible with usb 2.0.

 

[speakerman1]

Well I may just jump. Do you think a max of 50,000 songs would do everyone? LMAO

Yep the USB 3.0 device should be backward compatible with 2.0, of course your transfers will be at the 2.0 speed unless you have a USB 3.0 board.

 

[speakerman1]

That was the 1st I seen one. So I was wondering how fast. 2.0 can be kinda slow on transfers.

Stu, Nando, got any "Gorillaz" ?

 

[laatsch55]

Ok Dudes, i don't have any Jazz.

 

[stuwee]

No sir! I'd have more but a bunch got stolen

 

[laatsch55]

Answer my question Dude, got any Gorillaz??

 

[stuwee]

No on the Gorillaz Lee, and I have Jazz, mostly Lp tho.

I'm confused again, I should look for a USB that will plug into the back of the Dell? And it should have jacks for the preamp to plug into?

Then the Dell has to recognize the USB as what, a harddrive on the control panel?

Stuwee can you guess who the blues tape is for. LMAO

No no pre. You can get the same external USB that Lee and I have. It has a LP hook up with ground. Input and output RCAs. You just hit the switch and start your download. I use it to test my decks and my TT when I set up the cart. I use it for the Daqarta program I have.

 

[speakerman1]

Yes on your control panel. When I get it I'll format it to basic. I'll have to do it on the puter I just built.

and I'll make this easier, and do some searches at Hoffmans site, loads of info on how to needledrop, then when I get the stuff, I'll call Jerry on the phone, much easier
