Hi,
I've got a bunch of old vinyl (and even those before these) records

and some old tape cassette that I would like to record and put on CD

or in a non destructive format like FLAC. I've scanned (not thoroughly

I must admit) the net to see if there is a tool for this. I think that

it would be possible to use ardour, ecasound, audacity or similar. I

found a tool that is called PhonoRipper:

The author says that it isn't good with ALSA so I rather prefer

something else. But I'll give it a try anyway.
If anyone has an suggestion how to use ardour, ecasound, audacity or

similar I would appreciate that.
I'm not sure how to do the converting. Could this be a way?
sample the vinyl/tape

spilt into different tracks

try to remove noise and such

maybe normalize?

and maybe jamin?

convert to FLAC
