Oh dear...

How do you think the artists voice is transferred to the LP in the first place? Do you believe they do it straight from an analogue circuit through the mic to the LP, or would it be stored somewhere first....say....in a digital format?

If the conversion from analogue to digital is what 'ruins' the quality....then how can the quality be possibly restored by putting the digital signal onto an analogue format? Surely the missing information doesn't just appear out of quantum strangeness.....

Think about it for a minute.....and if your argument doesn't change, then perhaps you need to redress the way in which you consider yourself to think critically.

I missed that bit...the only thing I heard about a computer was when he said "a computer monitors the cuting and adjusts the spacings between the grooves".
Also don't confuse digital audio as being superior sounding to analog audio. It has taken many years for digital audio to compete the the sound quality of analog audio. Some audiophiles argue that it still isn't as good. But just because it's "digital" doesn't automatically make it sound better then analog. The real advantage that digital has over analog is that it does not degrade over time or from copy to copy.
Personally I think if you have a really good system I don't think you can tell the difference between a really good analog recording and a digital one except that over time the analog recording will degrade. I think the reason vinyl is making a comeback is that people who grew up with it miss the ritual, the touch, the smell, of taking a record out and putting it on the turntable and placing the needle on the record.

People "refuse to buy into the digital revolution" by purchasing an analogue medium produced from a digital source. Yeah, good work.

No kidding!!
I got to the bit where they were talking about transferring the recording from PC onto the disc and was thinking....hang on.......your reducing the information by quite a huge amount of the original recording, by going from digital to analogue....what?
WHAT? I dont get it.

Others have already posted links to video recording software. I've used Xfire to record small snips of games, but I don't know if it supports Minecraft. All of the recording programs (AFIK) record raw (i.e. uncompressed) video, so they will be very large files.

If he wants to put in fancy effects and titles, the video editing is probably going to be the most expensive if you go pay software. I don't know of any free programs that can do editing like that. If you just want to put the clips together and compress them, there are some good free programs that can do that. The free programs I've used are VirtualDub and HandBrake. Grab the ffdshow codec. I believe I read somewhere that if you encode your videos using H.264, it makes things easier when uploading to YouTube since it won't have to convert it, and the ffdshow codec can do H.264. I'd start out with free stuff before spending money to make sure it's something he's going to stick with. If he sticks with it, you're going to need to buy some more hard drives to keep backups on too.

I subscribe to and watch a few Minecraft LP channels. I like to watch how other people play and what they do because it gives me ideas of things to do in my own game. One also makes up a story and role plays, which is kind of cheesy but interesting.

Sorry to have brought this to your attention >> ^Drax:

I have the Broken CD edition with the seperate mini-cd for the last two tracks. The original Downward Spiral CD release with the extra white noise before hurt. Nearly evey LP. Owned the Broken movie on a bootleg VHS. Seen NIN over 30 times live.
...I never knew this existed.

lol

I own the LP, I bought it after hearing it on some DJ site.
I haven't a turn table for the past six/seven years, I have had this disc of plastic I can not listen to.
I wish for you all to envelope yourselves at least upwards of 3 minutes. Grasp its groove before you un-clasp and fall to nothingness.


After the 3 minute mark I maxed the volume, I want to make sweet sweet electronic love to that song.

Totally staged. And horrible acting.
And on that note, I explained 8-track tapes to my 13 year old daughter recently.
That was fun. Of course she thought they were a stupid idea, but then...they were.

Not "horrible" acting.
