[Dixielandjazz] Seeking advice-- computer soft ware for converting LPs to CD

[cook at bluewin.ch]

Sorry - I see it is called "Magix Audio Cleaning Lab" in English - there is
"Lab 10" in eBay for £4.71.

I use Magix music cleaning. It does all one needs including a printing
program for discs and CD covers. It is a powerful program but is not very
"intuitive" and one must spend some time learning how to use it.  It is not
free. If you are using Windows XP, I suggest you use eBay to buy a version
earlier than "MX". The version "Lab 2000 deluxe" even has a program that
reduces LP covers to CD size which is not found in later versions -
unfortunately, Lab 2000 will not work with later versions of Windows.
However, the most important thing is to have a very good gramophone - they
do not come cheap!
Have fun - yours aye, Christopher Cook

The obvious free option is Audacity

http://audacity.sourceforge.net/

The interface can be a bit quirky, but it is very competent with lots of
tools for noise reduction etc.

It says it runs on  Windows 2000/XP/Vista/7/8 along with Mac, Linux etc.
