what is a phono preamp?
487229
If your amplifier or receiver has a "phono" input, then you do not need a preamp.  If it does not have this input, then you will need a preamp, also known as a "step-up" amplifier.  You can probably find one of these on eBay, or at Radio Shack.  The electrical output from your phono cartridge is very low, and requires a boost so the signal from your LP's can be heard.

I may not have understood your question properly but here goes anyway.  If your Peavey is a combo guitar amp you have a built in pre-amp already.  It is not wise to pre-amp a pre-amp as this can cause excessive distortion, noise and much varied tones other than what you want.  Maybe on the other hand you want it very distorted.  If you have an effects loop on the amp you could go that way..  Into the amp from guitar then out of effects send into pre-amp and then back into amp at effects return.  If no effects loop then go ahead and go through the pre-amp first then into the amp input.  Put the amps channels on clean.  hope this helps

Yes, it is  equivalent to upsampling by the factor.\nOf course the next question then is, 'why upsample more than you need to?' (especially as it requires a lot more processing power/silicon die area/cost). That could be for a variety or reasons, including needing to transmit the signal over a physical channel before the final downsample eg. audio separates with S/PDIF connection between them.

Many ways. The easiest is perhaps dbpoweramp a free software download from dbpoeramp.com. You can also try musicmatch at musicmatch.com.

Sort of depends on how you connected it. If you used auxillary RCA plugs on your stereo and an adapter cable from the PC to the stereo there should not be a problem. If you tried to go in through a phono jack or unused set of plugs that were intended for some other device you may have enough of an impedence or signal strength mismatch to be causing the problem. Phono jacks for example expect a very, very small signal to be input. a PC inputs a much larger signal and would cause a lot of noise.\n\nCheap cables can also be a problem. A third source of noise can be that you are processing the signal twice. If you are using a software equalizer on your PC and a hardware equalizer on the home stereo then you are overprocessing the signal and that can cause a LOT of Noise!\n\nA ground loop isolater will only lessen or eliminate 60 cycle per second AC hum - like the hum you would get on a badly grounded guitar amplifier with single pole pickups, or the hum caused by flourescent lights. It will not reduce or eliminate any other kind of noise. \n\nWith more info about the nature of the background noise and the input, output and cords you are using someone might be able to give a better answer. Good luck. Finding and eliminating something like this can be a frustrating experience.

Pretty much all recording devices will work as long as you can upload the files onto your computer hard drive.  Audition can open a large variety of formats so you should not be limited.  \n\nI'm not familiar with preamp stuff but it sounds like you want to mix on your computer rather than through a sound board.  Some sound cards (like $250 ones) allow for multiple channels in and out.  They are also 1/4" jacked.  \n\nOtherwise, you can record keyboard and vocals separately.  Then layer them in Audition.  (you'll have to sing with headphones on to isolate your voice from the keyboard) \n\nHave fun.

Very simply, use the line out (speaker) socket of your pc into a spare line in of your amplifier (aux).\nYou will normally need a 3.5mm (headphone) phono lead on one end, with 2 RCA on the other end.\nYou can pick up these leads easily at an electronics store quite cheaply!\nGood luck

U can use WINAMP, SONIQUE, NOKIA PLAYER.

Some pressure transducers are a piezo electric crystal and the pressure forms a voltage across the crystal. Works for sound as well.

You'll have a tough time finding an all-tube amp for under $200. There are a few with tube pre-amps that can be had in that pricerange - \nVox Valvetronix AD15VT \nEpiphone Valve Junior \nKustom Tube 12A\nAll have 12AX7 pre-amps with solid state. The first thing I'd do with any of these is change out the tubes, though, and drop in Groove Tubes or Sovteks

If you don't want to spend much money, all you really need to make a decent connection is a standard "Y-adapter" cable like the one pictured. These simple cables can be purchased for about $10 from your local consumer electronics store.\n\nSTEP 1\nPlug the stereo 1/8" mini-jack end of your Y-adapter into the sound card or headphone jack of your computer. This is the same jack you would use to plug in PC speakers. \n\nIf you use a "Stereo Y Splitter", you can also plug your stereo speakers in at the same time providing enhanced sound.\n\nSTEP 2\nLocate an available jack (Aux, Tape2, etc.) on the back of your stereo receiver and plug in the other ends of your Y-adapter. NOTE: DO NOT USE THE PHONO JACK, as this will cause static and interference.\n\nSTEP 3\nOn the front panel of your stereo receiver, select the mode where you have connected your Y-adapter (Aux, Tape 2, CD, etc).
