Post Description

VinylStudio is software dedicated to converting your records and tapes to digital format. Much easier to use than a conventional audio editor, transferring your albums to your computer is simple and straightforward. From there, play them in your favourite audio player, burn them to CD, download them onto your mobile device or stream them around your home. Works with both Windows and Macintosh computers and includes a full set of sound cleaning filters.

New in Version 8.8:

There's no need now to have a Discogs account to search their database.
VinylStudio can now embed ID3 tags in WAV files as well as the older INFO tag. ID3 tags are read by a wider variety of players (including VLC and Windows Media Player).
If you recorded your album sides in the wrong sequence (typically side 2 and then side 1), you can correct this by dragging the recorded files around in the list in the Record or Split Tracks dialog.
The size of the recording buffer is now configurable from 1 to 60 seconds (in the Recording Options dialog).
You can now record DSD from devices supporting 'native' DSD over ASIO.
VinylStudio now supports quad rate DSD recording.
Search the 'MP3 Downloads' index in the Amazon databases as well as the existing Music index. This contains more track listings and (usefully) puts in track break markers for you.
On Windows, VinylStudio now runs correctly in 'high contrast' mode. This should help users with a visual impairment to use the software more easily.
When normalising, VinylStudio now does not scan the leadin or leadout parts of the recording (provided that you define track breaks first).
VinylStudio can now handle upto 30 album sides per album (up from 20).
You can now add additional albums to your collection while recording.
The rumble filter now has a setting to perform just DC offset correction.
On Windows, pressing F11 now makes VinylStudio go full screen. Press F10 at any time to toggle the menu. Full screen operation is also supported on OS X Lion and later.
The recording level indicators can now display either dB or percent (linear). The latter is more precise.
When burning an audio CD, VinylStudio now allows you to burn a second, identical, CD more quickly.
Dropdown lists now position themselves to the nearest matching entry when you start typing. Just press Enter to complete the entry.
Various other improvements and a few bug fixes.


nJoy!
