    At the moment, I’m recording the vinyl to digital format through the Behringer onto another laptop through a separate soundcard*, so I assume the Audio MK 2 is still OK for the digital side of things?

    *I do a weekly internet radio show and it’s easier to broadcast through Soundcast than go to the studio miles away!

    And yes, I know what you mean about recording the vinyl and the time it takes. I’m currently doing that as I sell them. Most of the records are almost all Mint and should have no issues with ‘decrackling’. I currently have around 6,000 tracks saved as I recorded them anyhow as they turned up.

    Thanks so much for speaking in laymans terms that I even can understand. I’ve realised the soundcard I’m using into up too much and was thinking of buying a Native Instruments Traktor Audio 2 Mk2. Any comments before I buy this?

    I do realise DJV, that the set up I’m proposing isn’t ideal at the moment, but I need to have the facility to play (and record) the vinyl to digital format while I’m selling up. My way of thinking is, that I can get used to going Digital and upgrade/lose the vinyl/CD formats completely later. I can then look into spending more money on a completely digital set up.

    Thanks again.

    DJV, as I say I’m REALLY new to all this Digital malarkey. You have to remember I’m from the school of plugging the decks into the mixer and hey presto sounds come out of the channels.

    So are you saying that I need a separate sound source if I split the two set ups?? I am fully prepared to go the whole digital route. As I said in my forum introduction, I’m selling up my vinyl, so ultimately will have no choice.

    I have tried connecting the output from the controller to the mixer, but only seem to have volume control on the master gain. I’m sure once I can get it all going then I’ll have no issues.

    It sounds like you’re well versed in all this and I thank you for your advice.

    ATB, Nelly

    Thanks for the advice Vintage. Ultimately I will totally rely on Digital and CD, but while I’m in the ‘transition’ I’m learning and gaining experience. As that grows, so will my budget.
