Recording/Copying vinyl records to a MacBookPro to CD

There is a product called iMic that comes with free software, I think called Final Vinyl. I've never used it, but heard and read about it. You could Google to learn more about it...or perhpas someone here has actually used it or something similar...

I use the Griffin iMic with Final Vinyl software.
RIP the albums into Final Vinyl and save them as AIFF.
Then you can add them to iTunes (or use other apps) and burn them to CD.

You may not need any hardware. I've used my iMac (the original "flat" G5) connected to the Tape Out of my stereo system. The A/D convertors in the iMac are adequate for my purposes.

I used Spin Doctor, which comes with Toast, to divide the album sides into tracks and attach the track and album details.

It's a rather labor intensive project, so be prepared!

If you have Toast you can also use Spin Doctor with the iMic. I have also read that you can use Garageband.

Remember that the quality will be dictated by the quality of the input source and the condition of the vinyl.

I use both Final Vinyl and Spin Doctor.
To me, the RIAA EQ (set to Flat) in Final Vinyl has the most accurate recording when importing from vinyl.

Then I open it with Spin Doctor to clean it up.

I purchased an Ion usb turntable from Costco that comes with IZ vinyl converter/and Audacity. So far it works except I have not been able to hear the file once I play it from the iTunes library. The process was pretty easy and the price was $125 for the turntable which came with the conversion software belt drive turntable , and stylus. Any help as to why the files to do not have audio would help.
