Golden Records converts vinyl LPs, tapes, or cassettes to WAV or MP3 files that can be saved on a computer, burned to a CD or uploaded to an iPod. It also filters tape hiss or record clicks and pops with easy-to-use features.

One of the things that sets Golden Records apart from other conversion tools is how easy it is to use. The program's wizard guides you through the entire conversion process, step by step. You'll also appreciate the various restoration tools that automatically clean up any damaged audio, removing hiss, clicks, and pops from old tapes or scratched records.
Golden Records also detects silence in your recordings and splits them into tracks automatically, so you don't have to worry about doing it manually. Plus, there's a built-in CD burner that allows you to record your tracks onto CDs after ripping them from your cassettes, LPs, or vinyl records.
This software also supports a range of file formats, including MP3 and WAV. And, it includes normalization features that adjust the volume of the recordings when converting them to CD. Additionally, it provides DC offset correction when converting analog to MP3, and even offers RIAA EQ that can be applied in the software, eliminating the need for a pre-amplifier.
Finally, if you're looking to convert older 78 RPM records played on a 45 RPM player, Golden Records is able to handle that as well.
