Right now I'm listening to the music from the backyard party going on one block to the east of my house. They just finished playing Neil Diamond's "Sweet Caroline" and now they're playing that big hit of Shania Twain's - the one about "the best thing about being a woman (What is its title again?)". Sounds like they're having fun over there....

I am now listening to Tchaikovsky's Symphony #5 in E minor, played by the Boston Symphony in a 1944 recording under conductor Serge Koussevitzky.

Over the weekend, I bought an Audio-Technica USB turntable for converting music from vinyl LPs into MP3 files so I can burn them onto CDs. It comes with the Audacity music-conversion software, which allows me to store my tunes on my hard drive. This software will even clean up the recordings, eliminating the clicks, pops, and crackles heard in the background on phonograph records and making them sound as clear as the digital stuff on CDs. I have a few vinyl albums which I know will never be released on compact discs, so this investment will allow me to enjoy them in that format once I learn how to use the software properly.
At present, I'm working on a recording I made of the soundtrack from the 1980 film The Stunt Man, which is one of the vinyl albums I mentioned earlier.

I use Audacity to manipulate my sound files, and it's great. 
I made my custom Kimmunicator ringtone with Audacity.

Audacity can do a fairly good job. I use Sony Vegas and Soundforge

Glad to hear Audacity's OK! Now I've got to get off my lazy butt and actually work on converting those vinyl albums....

Right now I'm playing my CD of Jeff Wayne's Musical Version of The War of the Worlds on my computer. I'm utilizing the Windows Media Player, and I've got my headphones plugged in due to the lateness of the hour. Sounds pretty good, too.
