Technical Support / Re: DSD Recording applying RIA...
Last post by Damien - January 16, 2025, 04:31:07 PM
Quote from: bruce.diesel on November 28, 2024, 05:57:04 PMGood Day All,

I am moving from Mac to Windows and hoping that this will enable me to record and clean up my recordings in one application.  I use a Korg DS-DAC-10R and record in DSD64.  After a bit of fiddling, I have it working, but am not able to applucation RIAA equalization to the recording.  If the format is DSD64, the equalization tick box is greyed out, and I can only enable it by selecting PCM.  Does this mean that I cannot record directly to DSD?  I am able to do this with Korg's AudioGate, but was hoping to not have to use both programs.

You can record DSD natively in Vinyl Studio. I use the same Korg device as you but im also using a Rolls VP29 as the pre-amp into the Korg unit. The RIAA equalization on the Rolls is pretty good so im not bothering with setting up RIAA in VS. Here's my input setup for the device. You have to have the Korg ASIO drivers installed for this to work natively.

Have you thought about setting up a reddit sub for announcements & info? Lots of younger/newer folks getting into vinyl the last few years and subs like r/vinyl have 2.1M subscribers! I am completely done with FB and from a purely US perspective, its gone to crap. There's been a massive exodus lately from FB and for good reason.

My workflow in these situations is to use the discogs website to search and then copy and paste the release id into VS.

A link to discogs on the 'Lookup Album Online form would be handy, perhaps by making the word "Discogs" into link

OK, thanks, I will report this to the people who wrote the forum software (SMF).

In the meantime, as you say, new posts appear to be reliably flagged as 'New' so I guess that's the way to go.

General Discussion / "Recent Unread Topics" Doesn't...
Last post by Indy33 - January 12, 2025, 04:03:10 PM
I used to use the link to "Recent Unread Topics" but if I go directly to "
Technical Support" or "General Discussion" categories I will some times find new posts that RUT does not.

Link I used for "RUT":
https://www.alpinesoft.co.uk/forum/index.php?action=unread

Not a big problem, but others maybe missing posts like I did for awhile.

Hi,

I don't think the Discogs API supports that, but I will check.  Have you tried adding more search terms (for the album title or artist) to narrow down the search?

Hi all, I'm finding when searching on Discogs that some of the obscure catalogue numbers in my collection come back with over 200 results, none of which are correct.

I think it would be really helpful (as an option) to be able to define genre and a year range (1987 to 1995 for example).

What are the chances?

Quote from: robxbl69 on January 09, 2025, 08:17:57 PMDoes submerging the vinyl not ruin the labels? I would be interested in seeing your setup when you get a moment.

Will be back if I have any questions... :)
Submerging does not hurt the label if you use a "Label Protector" and it provides a handle for the record.
