Developer’s Description

By Wieser Software

Record your vinyl records, cassette tapes and Internet radio to MP3 and other digital formats.

RIP Vinyl is a direct to disk recorder that allows you to record from any audio source on your sound card, and produce WAV or MP3 files, which can then be burned onto a CD-R or iPod for your own personal use while away from home. The software automatically detects tracks using parameters you configure, and can record a 78 on a 45 RPM player. In addition, it automatically discards tracks shorter than a threshold.

It includes features to allow you to schedule recordings, and break tracks after a fixed time, to aid transfer of books on tape. The software compresses to disk while recording. Compression is done via Microsoft's Audio Compression Manager and can use any ACM codec that is licensed for encoding. The software includes a peak VU meter. When you install, we automatically enable the Media Player 10 MP3 encoder for use with RIP Vinyl if present. In addition, the program now supports USB turntables and tape decks, allowing you to listen on your PC speakers or headphones while recording from these devices.

Demos are NOT Free Software
September 9, 2015
Pros
Simple. Records directly to music library in whatever format you want.
Cons
Seems a bit TOO simple. The "FREE" software is NOT real. This is ONLY a lousy demo which puts beeps on the recording. The fact this is just a demo MUST be the lead off information as you look at it to download.
Summary
Anybody that promotes a demo as "FREE software" is deceiptful and can't be trusted. I will be immediately be uninstalling this software and on to something else.
Clean and simple to use
pacollinsMarch 17, 2015
Pros
Simple to use not to many bells and whistles to deal with. Have used it since 2006 and new update makes it even better. Lets me record music of my records and save the recordings to my computer. Then burn to CD's..
Cons
I can't think of any cons. Worth the $10 I paid in 2006.
Summary
Excellent software, have used since 2004
excellentdealzSeptember 2, 2012
Pros
Works as advertised Very easy to use Very configurable Converted 1000's of hours of analog audio programs Has never given me trouble Ridiculous value
Cons
Seemed a little flaky on windows 7, but attribute this to windows more than I do the app.
Summary
I picked up this little app when I was running windows 2000 and paid $7USD at the time. Had used it quite a bit on XP and just upgraded to Win7. I was shocked that my ancient passcode still worked and got a free upgrade. These guys are more into just getting you to try their product than to get their hands in your pocket which I appreciate. I don't buy much software (big fan of open source), but this little program is just what I needed to digitize my very large analog audio library. It is very cheap and you get a really good app.
Everything I wanted - works with Stanton T.92 USB.

Pros
Easy installation. Paypal setup allowed for almost instant installation. Works with my Stanton T.92 USB turntable, and detects it as long as it's plugged in. But the hidden gem is the customer service. I emailed Wieser Software, and within an hour, I had a response. Nicely done. Incidentally, the question I asked was for a feature that allows you to choose when the track breaks. Shift+Stop does that. I never knew you could break tracks manually. Anthony Wieser really thought about features people want, and you can tell he's proud of his software. He should be.
Cons
It takes a little testing to know that your recording levels aren't distorting, but hey, so did tape decks. It's not a con, but I have to write something, right?
Summary
Fantastic price, amazing value. I'd have paid double the price for what I saw several programs sell for vs. features, but I'll keep that down until you guys buy it.
Straightforward to use and does what it says on the tin

Cons

Summary
Installed earlier version (3.4) 8 years ago. Works very well indeed but have just got new laptop so thought time to load up latest version (4.04). Contacted RipVinyl support to see what involved in upgrade. WIthin 2 days got a response which was very clear and have now got the latest software loaded, ready to go. No cost for the upgrade. Exceptionally good value even 8 years ago but to be able to upgrade free of charge - very impressive. Great product, great service. Keep up the good work Wieser.
Outstanding program. Have been using it for over 8 yrs.

Pros
Simple. Clean interface, but it does it all.
Cons
None. Does what it should.
Summary
I've tried many, many other programs of this type. I keep coming back to RipVinyl. I love it!!
Easy 2 use-converts cassettes & LPs 2 WMA, MP3 & WAV
ShalnachywytFebruary 15, 2011
Pros
Been using this program for at least 7 years to convert all of my really old 33-1/3 LPs and cassettes. Easy program to use, lots of ways to customize what you are recording.
Cons
Unfortunately, old LPs were sometimes done in stereo and had 2 separate channels. When U try 2 convert them directly 2 digital, 1 of the channels becomes very faint in the background. I got around it by converting LP 2 cassette & then 2 digital.
Summary
Great program. I highly recommend it.
easy to use
Ken17602February 9, 2011
Pros
Tech support is excellent, replied to email query within minutes and resolved issue. I have used it for years with no problems,(other than changed computer OS and had to re-install)
Cons
No cons, maybe a few noise filter controls would be a nice touch though.
Summary
Buy it, you will like it if your into one or two touch opperation devices, as I am.
Quick, easy and allows recording from speakers!
Jenson1066February 7, 2011
Pros
Very good customer support - I lost my key from a copy I bought 5 years ago and they emailed me details within a day! Easy to use Allows Win7 users to record from speakers Support for MP3 recording & allows muliple tracks from LP's to be recorded
Cons
Could do with a scratch/noise/hum remover of some sort, otherwise none.
Summary
Superb and easy to use, no fuss program.
