Oh, my, BK was up late. When I first got here he was still on at just after 7am.
No questions for anyone yet.
George, when we first started making copies of LPs and CDs we put LOTS of work into the label and the card trays, scanning in album material, using different fonts, etc, etc, etc. As much fun as it was and as beautifully as some of our projects turned out, it's a LOT of work (as you know). Now if I'm making a copy of a CD, unless it's for someone or some special project (like my BBC CDs), I just take a CD Sharpie and write the title on the disc. I will make a photocopy of the book if it's available so I have the information but I don't do half of what I used to do. I also found out after making copies for some people that there are those who don't want a paper label on their CD. OK, less work for me.
When we do LP to CD transfers we use a friend's dedicated machine. It's a stand alone burner hooked into his stereo system so there is no sound editing software. I have very basic software on my computer so when I record from the Internet or record a cassette tape to the hard drive for burning to a CD I don't have the option of cleaning up or making nice sounding fades or cross-fades or the like. I will probably get some new software the next time we get a new computer but since our little baby is working fine right now I don't see that happening for a while. I also doubt I will change the software I use to record from the Internet since it's so simple and easy to use. It's just shareware but it works like a charm and I'm very happy with it. I could use more full-featured software to fancy up a track or segment once it's recorded but I'm usually happy with the way my recordings turn out.
And on that note (C#) I will leave for a while.
Hi, Larry, Bye, Larry.
