Subject: RE: LP copying DON'TS
I'm afraid that once youve "archived" your quality L.P.s to MP3 or similar the damage is done. The very act of digitising is by definition a distortion and an approximation of the original. The detail lost can NEVER be recovered. Archive for convenience by all means but do store your treasured L.P.s carefully. In a hundred years from now it will be obvious what they are and a suitable pin and transducer will reproduce the sound as good as new.
