Vinyl to PC transfer (pdf Tutorial)

*marked in green = ordered, not received yet

Sound quality is essential = digital rips only*

Having a pleasure in listening obscure records in good sound quality is more important than collecting poor rips. Sound quality of majority of YouTube rips also many tracks from CD compilations is very poor and such copies are disregarded. Making a good rip is very simple, modern (produced in the XXI century) turntable and Audacity (freeware) is all that you need. I have prepared  
Please follow the guidelines. You can purchase a 45, make a rip and send mp3 to me - I prefer raw rips and my own remastering.

* Every single track is remastered (2), iZotope RX7 licenced software and Audacity freeware are applied. All files are properly tagged. 
Tags: 1. Title, 2. Artist, 3. Album, 4. Publisher, 5. Copyright, 6. Comment, 7. www, 8. Cover
(2) remastering = fixing any shortcomings of the ripped vinyl or the transferred CD track (de-click, de-noise, normalization, intro/outro silence of 0.75/2.00). The frequency spectrum is not "improved", it remains unchanged, as the norm.

Location of the file with a given Obscure Artist can be found on Google sheet (link below)
