I need some help with recording some 78rpm vinyl

[deleted]

Hey there,

Hoping someone here can help me out. I picked up some 78s this weekend, regardless of knowing my turntable only plays 45 and 33rpms. But I figured I'd just record them at 45 and then increase the speed using WavePad.

However, I'm not really sure what percentage to use to increase the speed somewhat properly. Can someone help me out?

Thanks!

To bgart@hotmail.com:

regarding your question on the NCH bulletin board about using WavePad to speed songs recorded at 45RPM up to 78RPM....

I think if you speed up the 45RPM recording of the 78RPM record by a factor of 1.733 it will work. (this factor is 78/45) Best of luck with it.
