I do care about sound quality, but I am sure if buying a sound card will make any noticable difference when recording from vinyl. BTW, all my LPs are classical, so the sound quality does make a difference.
Still not sure what to do....anyone ever been through what I'm doing? |
Vinyl is analogue = real time recording amplitude which is combination of all frequencies.
CD is digitally sampled -> meaning limited resolution, and only discrete values.
So a cd signal is only a close approximation of a reconstructed waveform of the original recording. Whereas the vinyl is a much more accurate approximation of the original recording, well much closer than approximation.
