Thank you for asking your question. Yes, you can, using the specialized software mentioned in these other answers, but I would have you take it a step further and ask which type of disc is best and for what reasons. CD-R or CD-RW, and some manufacturers of blank discs also make them specifically for music, so do check into it. One other thing you should be sure to find out is how long these discs will last after you have transferred your music to them. The concensus is not very encouraging. That homemade discs do not last very long. But it is rather fun to think of being able to do it. I know for a fact that audio cassettes last almost forever, so if I were transferring vinyl audio to anything, my choice would be to audio cassettes. I have some on my wall here in my room that were made before 1980, and they play back as though they were created yesterday. I certainly wish you great success if and when you decide to transfer yours to disc. Make sure you go on an information gathering session until you get some agreements among the people talking with you, so when you make your move, it will be one move and it will the right one. I know for a fact the vinyl I transferred ages ago to audio cassettes are as good as gold. I can understand why you would want to jump to discs. They take up so little space, and the quality of the sound is superb. Good luck to you, now, and make sure you ask a lot of people before you invest your money to actually do it. Take good care.

Answer 3

You sure can. The lest expensive way to do it.
If the turn table youplay the records on has an output jack,
Go to radio shack and get a cable with phono jack to hook to turn table on one end and a mike jack to fit your computer sound card on the other.
Open the windows recorder.
Double click on the speaker icon, A page will come up for the player. Click on properties and the the radio record button, then select the mike or the what you hear control.
Play the record and record the song.
the recorder will only record one minute and this isn't long enough for a song.
So hit record and when it gets to the end hit record button again.
you will get two minutes. every time you hit record at the end it adds another minute. I recorded for 5 minutes and saved it as AAA. Now when I open the recorder and click on AAA file I get 5 minutes of recording time.
After you record a song, you can click on edit and remove any extra time. Then save it save as "the name of the song" Then reopen the AAA file to record the next song.
When you close the recorder it will say "AAA has changed do you wont to save the changes?" Click no and AAA will be there for you the next time with 5 mintues of recording time.
After you get the songs recorded. If you have a cd burner you can right click on the song files in the recorder and tell it to send to the burn file.Then burn them to a cd.
You will be able to burn about 30 songs on a recular recordable cd.
Hope this helps you.
Popeye

Answer 4

agree with red
it can be done realtively easily
for ease buy a kit with some software and a soundcard. (that measn you connect the LP player to the computer directly (its fewer connections to make)

I bought one, in fact make me an offer you can have it....
came with Pinnacle software its pretty easy to transcribe LP's onto CD's which were then converted into MP3's
the only real problems I had was the time (you record the LP in real time), the software usually correctly identigfied the track separation between tracks
you can then process the recordings to remove any clicks or other noises.
however it can take anywhere upto 30..40 minutes to do the sound processing.

Answer 5

Yep you sure can :)

Here's what you need:

1. Record player
2. A soundcard with a "Line in" input ( all of them i think)
3. An application that will record from the "Line in" input ( I'm sure a freeware app would be available somewhere)

Just connect your record player, up to your soundcard, (if the connectors dont match up you will need an adaptor

Press record on the application, play the record, and then burn the recorded file to cd

Sorry to tired to help a little more, but i used an app called Soundprobe, but that was years ago, and it was free back then.

Goodluck
