thanks :)

I think for vinyl rip its ok

  • Author

no probs, I just hope it sounds ok. you have no idea what a mess i've made digging out the old record player from the loft, setting it all up and just generally causing havoc around the house! :P

Well, it was a nice try ripping it, but it sounds quite "tinny" and flat, and it isn't really stereo sound as such... but thanks for it anyway! Hopefully when i get my hands on it tomorrow, I can try a hand at ripping it, and see if it turns out a little better.

 

Thats no way me being ungrateful btw, because I know vinyls can be a real pain to get a decent rip from. For someone who's never done it before, it sounds pretty good! :smiley:

hahahaha, its no problem Semy.

I had so much background noise when I ripped it that I probably lost a lot of the depth etc. by removing the noise.

Although I did have fun playing music old school, I'll keep an eye out for your rip soon! :D

 

EDIT Hold on just a second, I think i've found a different option to rip it, which has very little background noise... might just give that a try, seeing as how i've got all the stuff out now!

Haha, going through old Pink Floyd and Genisis vinyls albums is always good fun.

 

Ah, i think removing the background noise would do it. But I can't guarantee my rip will be any better, it just depends on how good it sounds digitally... i don't know. I'll try my best, though!

Thanks a lot again :dance:

 

ohhh just realized I don't know your name :bigcry:

I think it was removing the background noise which made it sound so flat :(

I had heaps of the damn stuff! But then it is an ancient record player, with a semi-blunt needle, so its not surprising really! :laugh3:

 

The second rip is just the same i'm afraid :(

No probs!

I'm Jacob, and have been for as long as I can remember :laugh3:

ohhh thanks Jacob then :nice:

 

and I know you have been here for a long time :)

Thanks for the rip!

 

Did anybody get their deliver confirmation for the magazine :confused: I haven't yet. And do any Canadian people know if Chapters sells the NME magazine?

No worries, Jacob. Hopefully mine will turn out better, since i only bought mine a month ago (and its a USB one too :dance:). But really don't bother yourself with any more rips... you can only be as good as your tools (or whatever the saying is :lol:).

Just letting everyone know that most of the WH Smiths that I visited in London today have their copies of NME... I got a few extra copies for friends back in Australia... hope all of your copies arrive soon.

 

Thanks for the scans also.

Yeah, I just assumed that a load of it had been cut out on the radio, but it seems only a few seconds were missing! :(

 

Good luck Semy, your tools sound far better than mine! :laugh3::laugh3::laugh3::laugh3:

Yea wondering the same, got my transaction confirmation when I ordered online but wondering if a delivery email will be sent when its shipped or whatever.

 

If anyone could shed some light, it'd be much appreciated. :D

Isn't very different from the radio version indeed.

I couldn't vind the NME in several bookstores.. I'll try again later this week. I really want it :(

they took my money, so they better deliver it soon :dozey:

Thankyou SO much JPW! I love the Kwik Save quip. Saddens me a bit that they don't like X&Y anymore, though, I've had it on in the car for the first time in a while today and it's reminded me how ace it is, shame they don't feel the same way!

I was interested by that Floatsum and Jetsum part...

That intrigued me too.

I'm trying to think of acronyms and stuff, to see if there are any clues to be had...
