Re: [ARSCLIST] Is The Record Shop Dead?

They have a "blank" LP with time code or something on it that is fed 
into the CD player.  You "wicka-wicka-wicka" just like normal, but the 
LP is controlling the CD player.  For a while, I thought about using 
just such a setup to give my CDs more "analog" like sound.  Find one of 
the "blank" control LPs that's pressed way off center to give that 
familiar seasick affect.  Then, use an outboard processor to add tube 
"warmth" and tape saturation affects.  EQ it with some extra midbass and 
use a tube buffered DAC.  All I'd have to do is discretely mix in some 
crackle and pop, which is available as a loop I think.
