A brief overview of the features in Vinyl To MP3
Record
You may record the two sides of the LP and the recording has an "auto switch off recording" mode so it stops recording when
one of the sides has been recorded. That means you may leave the software running and do something else so you don't need
to worry that it'll continue recording and eat hard disk space, because it may stop automatically.
Split You can mark with the mouse where the songs should be split.
Or if you don't want to do that, you may use the "auto sense" mode which tries to detect where a new song begins.
Encode The software may start encoding to MP3 files immediately after
is has split the recording.
Burn You may burn an audio CD or a CD with MP3 files, if you wish.
Boost You may boost the volume, because sometimes it might be hard
to set exactly the maximum volume when you record a vinyl record. The software can ensure that the MP3 files gets the
maximum possible volume.
Adjust You may adjust the EQ as well. Vinyl records have a tendency
to sound a bit lo-fi or dull compared with digital media. But with Vinyl to mp3 you may boost the treble.
Graphical You may decide where you should cut the recording into
songs, by using the graphical display. Just click with the mouse.
Fade If you are recording a live album you might want to introduce
fade in/outs between the songs.
Alert The software can play a sound with a voice saying it has
finished. Good if you're away from the computer. Just raise the volume and wait for it to finish. Watch TV meanwhile
or have dinner.
Set rates You may decide which bitrate the MP3 files (or Ogg files)
should be encoded with. The software supports low rates, for example 96 kbit/s and high rates, for example 320 kbit/s.
