With the Xitel, I was hooking up the output of the turntable into the Xitel and then via usb into my iMac. If I go with a usb turntable (currently looking at the Project III usb turntable) I would hook up directly to the computer. My audio system and computers are in different rooms so it is not convenient to bring them both together, absent just moving the turntable itself near my computer. But then I would need a usb phone preamp then to send the signal from my TT to my iMac.
Recording vinyl into itunes- Best Method?
I looked at past posts regarding this topic but they didn't fit my situation. I'm looking for the best way to import my vinyl collection into itunes; preferably using the turntable I have now. I tried a xitel 'inport' and Griffin Technologies 'iMic' but both had noise/hum issues. I've considered buying one of usb turntables but not sure that would provide the best fidelity for transfer. My preference would be to find a usb type phono preamp that is extremely quiet and that has some sort of software that is easy to work with that can get the music to itunes without multiple steps of converting and that has album art and album/track listings. Absent the phone preamp, any recommendations on a decent usb turntable and software?
