Hello Russell - 

RT>>> Hmm ... had a peek at Goldwave, and the slow down feature
RT>>> in my copy only goes to .50, and if my math is any good,
RT>>> I need around .48 to go from 33 1/3 rpm to 16 rpm. 

CA>> The .50 would be close enough to be undetectable for all
CA>> but the 'golden ears' out there. :-) 

RT> I got pretty good ears, tho I will not claim "golden ear"
RT> status, but my hi-fi equipment, CD, player. turntable, amps
RT> and speakers cost me just over 3x the price of my car. :-) 

I can only reply "WOW!". :-) 

RT> the .50 stting just might turn out to be perfect anyhow, as
RT> someone pointed out that 16 rpm LP's actually are 16 2/3
RT> rpm discs. 

CA>>>> Let me know how this works for you. If it doesn't I may
CA>>>> have other suggestions by that time. ;-) 

RT>>> It would seem that CoolEdit has a option which will allow
RT>>> me to do this, must get a hold of that 16 rpm LP and free
RT>>> up some HDD space, and give it a bash. :-) 

CA>> Any well-written WAV editor that you want to use is good. 

RT> Hmmm ... 

Seriously. I wrote single-bit sound apps to save raw sound data
from a DAC and WAV files aren't much different. It's quite
'raw' in it's format, that's why they are so huge. 

--8<--cut 

CA>> Hopefully not more than 2 or 3 times to grab good audio
CA>> and write the WAV file. 

RT> Have no intention of playing it more than once, unless I
RT> absolutely have to, and my system is setup to just over 80%
RT> on SU meters, once recorded I then "normalize to 95% via
RT> software. 

Sounds right to me, I do the same. :-) 

CA>> Let me know what you find when you get there. ;-) 

RT> Will do. :-) 

I really am interested in this, it's one of the better uses for
a CD burner.
