REPOST: Anyone tried new Sony EZ Audio kit?

Has anyone tried the Sony EZ Audio transfer kit that was introduced at
COMDEX in November? It's supposed to be a "solution in a box" for
transfering LPs, cassettes, etc. to CD-R/CD-RW. For $50, you get software
for transfering, editing and cleaning up pops and click,etc., and a cable to
connect your sound system output to your PC.

There was a brief note about it in the New York Times "Circuits" section a
few weeks ago, but no details. Sony's website just has the press release
posted, but no details.

Does it work? Does it work well? Does it include RIAA contouring for
transfering LPs, so only a turntable would be needed? Or is it necessary to
use the output of a receiver or preamp with a phono section between the
turntable and PC sound card input?

Do you know of any other "easy" systems for copying LPs to CD?

Thanks in advance.

I have the same problem.

Try Andy McFadden's CD-Recordable FAQ which has some suggestions.

This FAQ is a great resource.

It has some pointers to some commercial products, LP but these were
expensive.

There is a Linux freeware called Gramofile which I an useing.

Take a look at Clean! 2.0 from Steinberg. I believe it may be just
what you are looking for. Here's the link to Steinberg's web site.
Click on the "6 Steps" icon for more program details. Steinberg is a
major producer of music software and Clean! is a more consumer
friendly version of it's high end professional restoration tools. A
wave editor, Wavelab 2.0 Lite, is also included.

You can get the software at Amazon for $33. That's an incredible
value for what it does. There's also a version that comes with a
phono pre-amp, so you don't have to run your turntable through a
receiver first when recording LPs. That version is called Clean! Plus
2.0 and costs $60.
