[sdiy] Nifty Slider/Fader alert

[elmacaco]

My Turntable cost $200, has reverse, pitch adjustment of +\-25%, does the
pitch shifting, and has a spdif out.  Stanton STR8-100.

I just got a record yesterday for a quarter and it has a funky soul break in
it that has just become my favorite piece of music.  Pop and crackle aren't
big problems, pretty easy to solve, and even with that the sounds on vinyl
just grab you.

I have found that I rarely play a CD album at heavy rotation compared to how
I used to play my tapes and now my vinyl.  It isn't conscious, but I tire of
CD albums even i the music is really good.  But I have tapes that were
steady in the deck for years with never a moment of getting old.
