Hopstretch Posted November 21, 2009 Report Share Posted November 21, 2009 I've picked up a Duet (again) and would like to start playing around with ripping vinyl. Could one of you chaps who've already been down this road please point me in the direction of some decent software for the Mac to facilitate the process? Workflow tips also welcome! Thanks very much.

jp11801 Posted November 21, 2009 Report Share Posted November 21, 2009 Wave Editor for $79 or Peak le for $99. Peak is easier to break up tracks and burn CDs but WE sounds better and has better sample rate conversion and dithering tools. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trav Posted November 21, 2009 Report Share Posted November 21, 2009 Ingwe's needle drops on his Macbook using Audacity and the Duet were most impressive.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dusty Chalk Posted November 21, 2009 Report Share Posted November 21, 2009 (Audacity being the best option for "free".) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HeadphoneAddict Posted November 21, 2009 Report Share Posted November 21, 2009 I have Audacity to record (free) and I am going to try my GEMSound USB A/D this weekend with my Macbook Pro. You could try that. My A/D box came with Soundsoap 2 SE to clean up the pops and crackles if needed, so that might be fun to try too. Don't know if it will muck up the sound or not, or if is even worth the $49 it would cost if it didn't come with the GEMSound for free. I doubt it will sound as good as the Apogee A/D.

feckn_eejit Posted November 29, 2009 Report Share Posted November 29, 2009 How can Wave Editor "sound better" than Peak on the same hardware? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
morphsci Posted November 30, 2009 Report Share Posted November 30, 2009 How can Wave Editor "sound better" than Peak on the same hardware? Different DSP algorithms or implementations? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
