Just in from eBay, a late 50s 45 rpm with 3 tracks. Listen to the result!

Commentary

I have toyed around with digitizing records (vinyl and even some shellac) and found that there are some fanatics out there when it comes to cleaning, digitizing, and then processing the digital files.  I haven’t bought any pro level software yet, but use the free open source Audacity instead (great for those that are not Mac users).

Are you volunteering, Paul? 😊

That’s great info. I’m no audio expert, but I’m fairly pleased with the quality coming out of this $80 turntable.

One thing I found is that usually you may need to apply an EQ curve to get the best sound: https://wiki.audacityteam.org/wiki/78rpm_playback_curves
