...or the vinyl on the turntable goes round and round...

I've been spending my time on youtube lately listening to records.happy

There are just TONS of videos that are of people recording their vinyl into a digital format, and I love the way it sounds.

There's just something totally different about vinyl vs CD or MP3, and I've always thought the sound was so much warmer, that it has more presence to it. Plus, let's face it...I am old, and there are some things I like better the old ways.

I LIKE analogue signals...your can compress the hell out of them and STILL get a great sound.

Digital...well, there are just some things it doesn't do right.

And if you are recording with tape, you can saturate the hell out of the signal, and it just makes it sound better.

Try it with digital, and...well, it sounds like it belongs in an outhouse.

So, since subscribing to a few youtube channels that are nothing but vinyl recordings, I have been immensely enjoying myself.

Check some youtube vinyl out...you might be amazed at how it sounds.happy

I'm not really amazed by it, I'm not a metallica fan, I can't hear one of their music, I'm not really impressed by that, I saw so many things more incredible than this...

I have been following your vinyl postings mike and I must say i am enjoying it...loved the metallica posting today...seek and destroy...THAT was when Metallica was METALLICA. It's amazing how even in digital reproduction, vinyl still maitains that...certian something, white noise and all. Still love it.

George was telling me about how his friend Kenny could take the audio from his records and upload it on the computer. Of course listening to anything George says when it comes to technology is enough to make me laugh because he doesn't really understand anything when it comes to that kind of stuff. He simply asked me if I could, and with the equitment he has (which is broken) I had to tell him 'no'. So he's going to have to wait until we get enough money to replace it in order for me to do anything.

Though if I ever do, I'll share it of course.

Thanks for this, I never knew people uploaded their Vinyl to Youtube. I might even give it a bash myself. I always loved my record collection even though I have replaced most of it on CD but I do agree with you there is just something so sweet about vinyl. I must dig out the old record and tape collection and go through it.

Searching.......w00t

I was working in Detroit and the company sent me to electronics school for a year. this 1966 and we had to choose a project! I picked a heath kit amplifier! LOL! The range in the reproduction of the sound blew me away I got speakers that had the range to match the amp. out put, and the Bass was so low that you couldn't hear it but you could feel it! The high treble was beyond what the ear could hear! All my friends were blown away, it was the best of the best! that was back in the day! ( Thanks for the link!)wink tdemex


myLot reputation of 95/100. The_Lamb_Lies_Down (6932)  3 years ago

My grandfather built a few Heathkit amps back in the day...I've been searching for a good old tube amp for quite a while, but they are real hard to find now.


myLot reputation of 83/100. xfahctor (7620)  3 years ago

HEATHKIT!!! lol...Loved heathkit stuff...I built an amature radio tranciever with my dad from heathkit....learned a lot from him and heathkit.


myLot reputation of 86/100. tdemex (2225)  3 years ago

It was one of their first items that was tubeless, had a new thing in it called a transistor was the wave of the future, it replaced tubes! LOL! T----

I too miss the sound of vinyl. I have good collection of records that are in storage. The problem is that I don't have a record player nor do I have the funds to purchase one. I'll have to check out the youtube and get my fix.

I visited my brother this fall and we spent an evening listening to stacks of old 45's, it was really cool. I miss vinyl, myself.

i love old jazz (everr heard of Bobby Troupe [from the tv show Emergency! - mid 70s] he wrote Route 66 in 1946!) and a variety of music (Chinese, Hungarian, Jewish etch) and youtube is the best place to hear it.
