Recording Edison Records to Itunes

I would like to record my Edison Record and 78 rpm collection to my Itunes software on my PC in the form of mp3's. Are there any setup instructions I should learn before attempting this? I have a record player designed to connect to my PC using a USB connection. It will produce an mp3 file. Thank you ever so much for any assistance offered.

Your record player would (obviously) need to turn at 78rpm. It would also need the correct stylus for playing 78s - this may or may not be supplied, or may be optionally available. It almost certainly won't equalize the records properly, so they will sound very woolly.
Failing the correct speed and/or stylus that it gets more complicated, and you may need to invest (if you think it's worth it) in specialized equpiment. My page here goes into the subject in some detail - possibly more than you may want, though.
The Edison disks may present their own problems. There are ordinary 78s from Edison Bell, but if these are the quarter-inch thick ones they are vertically cut - in other words the groove goes up and down rather than side-to-side (if you use a magnifying glass you can see the difference quite clearly) - and you will certainly need special equipment to play them - at the least a stereo pickup re-tipped with the correct stylus and the channels wired up out of phase. You would need to do some Googling on this to find out what possibilities are available, I can't advise on these, never having acquired any.
You can't actually record in iTunes; you would need a suitable program such as Audacity (free).

  • I am having problems syncing recently recorded songs to my iPod. I am using an ion program to record vinyl records to iTunes. The songs are in the iTune library and will play on the computer. When I try to sync they show up but do not play. help

    I am using an ion piece of equipment to record vinyl reccords to my iMac and in turn save them in iTunes. I have recorded many records this way and have never had a problem until yesterday. I recorded three songs from records to iTunes and was successful as they are on the song list and will play on the iMac. When I tried to sync them to my iPod they showed up on the menu but would not play. The iPod just skipped over the new guys. Am I doing something wrong or has my ion program flipped out? Any help would be appreciated by this old man. Thankyou

    This might sound weird, but here's an idea which worked for me re music that was newly added to itunes and showed up in my ipod but wouldn't play - I simply played the tracks in itunes first, just a second of time or so will do it, not the whole track, then connect the ipod and sync again and this time they played - hope this helps.

  • I have just downloaded itunes 10.6 and  in the process my "podcast" option under library has disappeared! The files are still on my laptop. I can also see some of my recorded music in my itunes library but can play them - there is an exclamation mark next

    I have just downloaded itunes 10.6 and in the process my "podcast" option under library has disappeared! THe files are still on my laptop. I can also see some of my recorded music in the itunes library but can't play them - there is an exclamation mark next to each track. Basically I can't use itunes - is the only option remove and replace? Thanks in advance

    Empty/corrupt library after upgrade/crash
    Hopefully it's not been too long since you last upgraded iTunes, in fact if you get an empty/incomplete library immediately after upgrading then with the following steps you shouldn't lose a thing or need to do any further housekeeping. In the Previous iTunes Libraries folder should be a number of dated iTunes Library files. Take the most recent of these and copy it into the iTunes folder. Rename iTunes Library.itl as iTunes Library (Corrupt).itl and then rename the restored file as iTunes Library.itl. Start iTunes. Should all be good, bar any recent additions to or deletions from your library.
    See iTunes Folder Watch for a tool to catch up with any changes since the backup file was created.
    Missing tracks
    Typically this can happen because a file or folder is accidentally shunted to the wrong location. iTunes can also get confused if it expects to be talking to an external drive which isn't there. If will often reset the default media folder location and may have trouble finding files in the old folders.
    Select one of your tracks that is missing in action. Press CTRL-I to Get Info. Cancel when asked to try to locate the file, then look at the location given on the summary tab. This where iTunes thinks the file ought to be? Now find out where it actually is. Post back the two locations for comparison. I should be able to give you some steps to reconnect everything once I can determine which of the things that might have gone wrong is most likely in your case.
    When you get it all working make a backup!

  • How can i avoid to record vocal memos on itunes?

    how can i avoid to record vocal memos on itunes?

    Voice memos as in (Voice Recordings?) I'm afraid these automatally are backup to your iTunes music library, when synced to your computer. One way i can suggest keeping them altogether is having a separate folder with them all placed in, and untick the box so they don't play when listening to music and so on.

  • HT1473 Uploading LP recorded music directly to iTunes

    I record and save music from LPs using an ION turntable.  When saving the music after recording, the music automatically loaded into iTunes and populated the artist, album, and song title fields.  The recent iTunes upgrade does not allow the upload to iTunes anymore and now you have to save to either My Music or the desktop to import.  Has anyone else had this problem and did you find a solutions to uploading your recorded music right to iTunes?

    While we all have MacBooks in this forum not all of us use iMovie. There's an iMovie Support Community where everybody uses iMovie. You should also post this question there to increase your chances of getting an answer. https://discussions.apple.com/community/ilife/imovie

  • Recording from record onto my Mac

    Hi....can anyone help!
    I've got a record player that I want to hook up with my Mac and record my records into it so I can use them on my ipod?!
    Chris

    You will need something like the iMic by Griffin Technology. iMic provides a USB input to the iBook.
    Depending on the record player, you may need some kind of pre-amp. If it is a high quality turntable, you will need the pre-amp, or be able to connect to a stereo amplifier. If the player includes the amplifer, then you can connect either to an available output jack (to tape recorder, etc.) or to a head phone jack. To make these connections, you will need the appropriate adapters. The iMic has a standard 1/8 inch stereo input. If you must use the head phone jack on the amp, you will need to play with the volume to prevent distortion of the sound. Start with the volume at the lowest level, and adjust until you are just shy of overdriving the input.
    I have not tried iTunes yet, but understand that it is easy to use. I did most of my record conversion before the advent of iTunes. I used a Shareware program call Amadeus.

  • Recording from Record Player to Air

    I would like to record my records(vinyl) to my Macbook Air - iTunes.
    The record player is not a USB type device that they have these days.  The record player does have a built in pre-amp.  How do I do this through the MacBook Air?
    Thanks for your help!

    Hi,
    How do you connect them ? What is "from Record Player" and what is "to LP" ? To help us answer question quicker, please read this:

  • CS6 stamp tool doesn't work with action / record ( tool record is enabled ) other tools works

    CS6 stamp tool doesn't work with action / record ( tool record is enabled ) other tools works

    At one time tool  recording was not possible and if you install Adobe Scriptlistener Plug-in Adobe will disable tool recording its never an option.
    I use and record actions all the time and was looking forward to tool recording when Adobe announced it.  However I found what they delivered was  of very limited value because of the restrictions. I do not care that Adobe disables tool recording on my machine.
    The amount of data that gets reordered seems also vary between machines.  I found that Action recorded on fast machine are not usable on slow machine.  Fast machine recorder too much data.
    Documents you use such action on must also have the same size and resolution as the document you recorded the action on. Quite a restriction.
    You problem may also be foxed in CC 2014 sett here Photoshop CS6 - Recording the clone tool in an action gives incorrect results on replay.

  • Some question on IDOC (Control Record/Data Record/Status Record)

    Dear all,
    I am new in this area, and would like to enquire some question on this topic.
    When I view a IDOC via WE02, each of the IDOC record will consist of Control Record/Data Record/Status Record).
    Questions:
    I notice that the data records consists of many segment (i.e. E1EDK01, etc) which are use to store application data.
    1 - My question is do I have to manually create all these segment and do a mapping to my application field one by one (i.e. that is when I want to create a brand new message type from scratch)?
    2 - If question no. 1 is Yes, how to do it, what are the transaction code to create it? can you show me the step by step.
    3 - I don't have to create the Control record and the status record for my new message type right ? because those field value will automatically pull out from partner profile and system status message, am I correct?
    Thanks.
    Tuff

    Hi Tuff,
    As everything in SAP, with IDOCs too there are
    1) Standard IDOCs
    2) Standard IDOCs(Extending - Enhancement to an IDOC, to accomodate for custom values)
    3) Custom IDOCs
    And every IDOC has,
    Control record - EDIDC Structure - This mostly reflects the partner profile information, along with few more details which are used for IDOC extension, Sequencing etc
    Data Records - EDID4 Structure - These records contain the actual business data of the document in concern. So for ORDERS05 it would contain order details, INVOIC02 - Invoice details so on...
    Status Records - These records capture the status of an IDOC from the time it is received/sent from your system and a corresponding business document is created/changed. So this will have messages like "IDOC sent to the port OK" etc which are status from the communication layer(ALE) to application specific messages like "Sales Order XXX created" or "Invalid Material" etc.
    You would have noticed something called as Process code in the partner profile, this is associated with a FM(or work flow task etc) which has the business logic coded in.
    So in case of an Inbound IDOC, the sending system updates the IDOC - Control and Data records, and sends it to the receiving system. On the receiving system the IDOC's control record is validated against the partner profiles set, if an entry is found then using the process code it finds the associated FM which will decode the data from the IDOC data records as per the IDOC type and then use it to post data into SAP (VIA BDC, Batch Input, BAPI etc).
    And all this while the Status records are being updated accordingly.
    So with the above context will try to answer your questions,
    1 - My question is do I have to manually create all these segment and do a mapping to my application field one by one (i.e. that is when I want to create a brand new message type from scratch)?
    In case of a custom IDOC, yes you will have  to.
    In case of a standard IDOC, you wouldn't have you just have set up the necessary configuration (Partner Profile, Process code etc)
    In case of a standard IDOC extended to accommodate for some custom values(for which there are no fields in standard IDOC - Let us say you have added some new fields on VA01) - In this case you can still use the standard Process code and Standard FM associated with it, SAP provides several Function exits in these FM's which you can leverage to add your custom logic.
    2 - If question no. 1 is Yes, how to do it, what are the transaction code to create it? can you show me the step by step.
    There are several documents available on the net and on SDN detailing step by step approach for all the above three cases,
    just search for step by step guide for IDOCS - sap.
    3 - I don't have to create the Control record and the status record for my new message type right ? because those field value will automatically pull out from partner profile and system status message, am I correct?
    Again it depends, in case of using a standard IDOC you wouldn't have to. But in case you have some customizations/enhancements then you might have to.
    For Ex: updating the control record accordingly for indicating that you have extended the standard IDOC. Or append custom messages to the status record as per the business logic.
    Try out the examples you find on the net and post any specific questions you might have.
    Regards,
    Chen

  • Including comments entered from Document Library to Records Center Record Library

    We are currently sending documents from a SharePoint 2010 site to a Records Center.
    We are using the Collect Signatures workflow, and edited this default workflow in SharePoint Designer to then send the document to a Records Center when both signatures have been applied.
    Everything is working well, but we'd like to enter comments @ the originating document library...which we can do now...and have those comments get sent over to the Records Center as well when the document is signed by both people.
    Are we able to do this?  ...have comments entered in the Document Library show up in the Records Center Records Library?
    Thank you!

    Hi Joe,
    If your settings are configured as below,
    The site collection Record Declaration Settings are set to "Block Edit and Delete"
    The Record Library is set to "Automatically declare items as records when they are added to this list."
    The Drop Off Library Record Declaration Setting is set to site collection default: Do not allow the manual declaration of records;
    then the item(e.g. Test.xlsx) routed from "Drop Off Library" will be declared as a record in this Record Library, which is inherited from site collection setting "Block Edit and Delete" and auto declare on library option is enabled, then
    this "Test.xlsx" item will be read-only as record and it can not be edited and deleted by design. 
    From the following error message you provided, it seems you secondly upload the Test.xlsx file in "Drop Off Library", then this time the "Content Organizer" will route
    this second Test.xlsx file to the Record Library again, however it cannot update a read-only item with the same name for Test.xlsx previously existed in the Record Library.
    "Unexpected Routing Engine: File DropOffLibrary/Test.xlsx could not be routed to /sites/records/Records/101-01 in site http://records/sites/records : This item cannot be updated because it is locked as read-only."
    If above is the case, for resolving this issue, you can use the following two methods:
    1. Use the option "<label for="ctl00_PlaceHolderMain_versioningSection_appendUniqueCharsRadioButton">Append unique characters to the end of duplicate filenames</label>" for "Content Organizer" settings.
    2. Or use the option "<label for="ctl00_PlaceHolderMain_recordBehaviorSection_recordBlockDeleteRadioButton">Block Delete</label>" for site collection "Record Declaration" Settings.
