I'm sure everyone on the forum is already doing this. I just crawled out of my cave, learned a little about it, and am just getting started.
Today I recorded my first DVD-A from vinyl (Red Garland - Red in Bluesville), and I am listening to the disc right now on my universal player and I think it sounds damned good.
My recording setup consists of the following:
24" iMac running Windows Vista Ultimate
M-Audio Firewire 410 Mobile Recording Interface
Adobe Audition 3.0
DiscWelder Bronze DVD-A authoring tool
Good quality analog interconnect cables and a pair of Phono-to-1/4 mono adapters (for the M-Audio FW 410).
I bought the M-Audio Firewire 410 mainly because I found it for a bargain basement price from J&R Music. I was aware that there are only beta drivers for Vista for this device, but I also have a laptop that is running Windows XP Professional that I could have used if the Vista drivers were a bust.
I cleaned the record on my VPI 16.5, then adjusted the input levels on the M-Audio mixer, and away it went. The beta M-Audio drivers for Vista seemed to work pretty darned good after all. I recorded a single file in 24-bit/96KHz PCM for each side of he album and then cut it up into individual tracks. I monitored the recording on my headphones and made note of two clicks that I heard during playback and used Adobe Audition to remove them. After that I was ready to burn a disc with DiscWelder.
A few minutes later I was putting my home spun DVD-A into my Denon universal player. So far so good. I think I am going to have a blast with this setup.
