you just need a stereo audio editor capable of recording from the
selected input on your mac (which would be line in from the turntable).
You record each track (or one long track of however many songs are on
each side of the vinyl and seperate them later) and then save the files
as AIFF and then add them to iTunes and burn to CD. Toast 6 has a bonus
app called CD Spin Doctor included which will do fine and you can burn
the audio directly without using iTunes. If you don't have Toast use a
free audio editor like Audacity http://audacity.sourceforge.net/ and
iTunes.
Mostly you need lots of time and patience but you can have fun
listening to all your old vinyl while you do it!

suitable software, to convert your 33s or 45s to CDs.

me what I would need apart from the turntable to convert my old 33s to
CDs? I'm running 9.1. TIA.
