No prob. I just checked and it looks like only the deluxe versions of the vinyl came with the 24-bit download. Sorry for the false alarm.

I immediately went through some of my other LPs excitedly, and found another with .FLAC downloads available.  Struck out with the other two only offering mp3s, though. 

If companies consistently offered high-res downloads, I'd never purchase anything other than LPs in the future.

Put record on, connect Behringer UFO202 (16/44.1 or 48 kHz), record, drop needle, perfect rip. :)p6

I wish it were that easy.


A friend of mine got a few RCA Living Stereo shaded dogs so we have been having fun working on those to pass the time away. Amazing sound from some of that wax...sadly, many of these are relatively obscure and hard to find.

Dunno what's so funny.

Ok I have no idea how good the ADC implementation of that particular device is.

Quite. A friend of mine does absolutely brilliant sounding rips using a Technics SL-1200 with a Rega arm, Shure cart, $600 Simaudio Pre, and a $250 Native Instruments ADC. The entire rig is worth maybe $3500. He does all of his processing in Sound Forge by hand. I can't count the number of rips I've heard done on systems with $3500 cartridges that sound like garbage. Clicks, pops, and ticks galore, LF rumble problems, etc. That or they run them through something like ClickRepair on auto mode, which makes the recording sound like a quiet version of the CD.

Still tons of folks that assume that throwing $10K at a turntable will give them fantastic results from their rips, no matter what.
