Thanks Karl for this - and also Tim K for the Playlist articles, Griffin iMic etc. But I'm becoming a little confused ! :) Even with Toast's Spin Doctor, a RCA>USB hardware device is needed surely ? Not quite Voila ? Karl - are you suggesting you can do without buying one of the following ? The Griffin iMic costs US$49 and they also market a Turntable Connection Cable for US$13 (http://www.griffintechnology.com/products/ grounding_cable/index.php_} for the RCA/USB interface. The ADS Instant Music hardware C$70 , which also comes with a CD software called Nero.(its version of Spin Doctor?) I feel the water is beginning to reach my chin !! :) Help !!
