[Dixielandjazz] Converting LPs to CD

[Dick Baker]

I've done that with nearly 2000 LPs.  As Sep said, an audio editing 
program is invaluable for cutting LP sides into discrete tracks and 
cleaning up the inevitable surface noise.

I use a couple of absurdly expensive professional programs for that 
purpose, but I've heard many good things about the program Sep 
recommends, Audacity.
