Great recording software for "do-it-yourself-ers" January 7, 2009
Brady Turner
The software did what it said it would do. The tutorial, with voice instruction, was easy to follow and hook up was a breeze. I was impressed with the many cleaning stages for eliminating the pops,clicks, and hiss from my LPs and cassettes. Considering the many features that came with the software, the price was a bargain. If you are a do-it-yourself person and not a computer wiz like myself, this is your recording software. I would highly recommend using the gold plate RCA cables for best sound a recording quality.
It does exactly what it says it does, and it does it well! December 22, 2008

I just had to write this review because I think some reviewers on here are totally missing the point. This is not supposed to be a full on program for taking audio files and tweaking them with all sorts of filters. For that you can find really expensive programs by Sony and Adobe and some other companies. This program only claims to take your LP or cassette collection that is probably in your garage or closet collecting dust and convert them to either MP3 or wave format files that can be transferred to a blank CD. That is it. Not only does it do this, but it does it very well. I have converted many of my albums and have been able to completely remove the minor clicks and pops that are sometimes present. My collection of albums are in pretty mint condition, but I understand if your album is in less then perfect shape, it will still do a great job of removing the very obtrusive clicks, pops and surface noises. The Acoutica.com website has some samples to listen to. This program is so good at automatically detecting the tracks of the albums, that when I insert the recorded CD into my PC, I tunes immediately recognizes the recorded CD as a factory CD! I can then transfer it to my Ipod. Very impressive. So, if you are looking for a great program that will help you turn your record or tape collection into CDs, without having to have a degree in sound engineering, this program is for you.

I just bought this product and it came as software with no cables or anything I would have thought you'd need to hook up an old fashioned sterio with a computer. Of course, it's a gift and so I haven't unwrapped it, but what do I need to buy to go with this software to make a complete package?

I found Spin it Again by a web search several months ago and it's now indispensable software for me. At the time I was looking for a way to convert an oral history interview from cassette tape to CD, and Spin it Again was the perfect solution for that. After that, I started a new project with Spin it Again: converting my collection of audiobooks from cassette tape to digital audio.
Spin it Again is user-friendly. I appreciate that because I'm not interested in advanced digital audio editing; I just want to produce decent-sounding audio files from my books on tape. I'm sure I'm only using a fraction of the software's capabilities, but that fraction is all I need. The tape noise removal options have all worked well. The "level wizard" is great for setting recording levels each time I start with a set of tapes.
This software is so indispensable to me by now that when I ditched my desktop PC for an iMac this spring, I moved Spin it Again (wish they did have a Mac version) to my notebook PC so that I can continue to use it. I've tried a few highly-rated recording applications on the Mac (including Audacity). I'm sure they are fine, but they had learning curves I just don't have the time for. I really like Spin it Again much better for my purposes.
The only problem I encountered using Spin it Again on my notebook PC was the notebook's lack of a line-in jack (it only has a microphone jack - and Acoustica warns against using that as a line-in from audio equipment as the sound load can damage the mic jack). I tried using the mic input for a couple of tape conversions but the sound was distorted. I have just purchased and starting using the Behringer U-Control which connects my tape player via USB instead of the microphone input, and am pleased with the results.
If you want to convert your old cassette tapes or LPs to digital audio without having to master complicated software, Spin it Again is a good choice.
