Hi Stephen et al,

I have used Audacity to copy vinyl> MP3> CD but found the end result has
very little bass to it.  There is no bass-setting on my USB-turntable.  So
the settings on the stereo only enhance the audio output from the turntable.
The USB-cable goes direct into the PC.  Bass just isn't there when it comes
to playback as MP3, or on the CD-player.  The treble is nice and clear and
not what we call 'toppy'.

Consequently, after I have used the CD-player for regular disks, the bass is
set too high and has to be set back to normal.  The volume is also less from
an Audacity recording, but I can cope with that.  Volume seems to be the
only feature that can be manually set in Audacity.

If there is another user out there, is there any control on the bass/treble
in the Audacity recording set-up?  I would like a pointer in that direction.

It could be useful for others on this list considering copying their old
vinyl recordings to CD.

Best Wishes

Ron (UK)

Hello Rob,

Have you tried Audacity?
http://audacity.sourceforge.net/

This is a free, cross-platform sound editor.  Import your H2 recordings 
in WAV format to Audacity, then use the Effects menu to do all sorts of 
things, of which reverb is only one.

If you have the MP3 libraries installed on your computer, you should be 
able to export the final audio to MP3 directly from Audacity.  If you 
don't, then Export the final audio to a WAV file and import into the H2 
and let the H2 convert to MP3. (Using the H2 is a very slow way of doing 
MP3 final output, but at least it will work.)

Works for me. Best,
Stephen.
