Try "Gramophone Pal" from 'WeLuvLPs' Software Ltd. It costs a bomb, but you
get a free robotic arm that cranks the handle for you.

Get yourself a microphone and something like Goldwave. plug the mic
into your soundcard, place the mic near the gramophone's horn, and record
the mic.s output using Goldwave. Not forgetting to wind the gramophone up
before doing the recording, they tend to work better this way.

Does he mean a gramophone, or something with some sort of electrical
output?

I use Wave Repair to convert LP input to WAV and fix any scratches etc.
There are millions of programs out there which will convert from WAV to
MP3

Theoretically at least, you should be able to scan the grooves with a
laser micrometer arrangement and make a computer model of your LP.
You could then process that map to extract the wav content of the
sound.

Your biggest problem might be in choosing an encoder to convert the
wav to mp3.

Thats been done, although I dont recall the product ever reaching the

Very badly, because it tracks specks of dust impeccably, leaving your
speaker cones in a neat pile on the carpet.................
