roxio makes a program EASY CD CREATOR , i use it often = go to this url

http://www.roxio.com/en/products/ecdc/ecdcawards.jhtml

it has reviews about the software and what it does - it comes with directions - it works well - of course there are limitations based on the condition of the vinyl and the turn table and cartridge for the playback

make sure there are no spaces in the url

The quality of the sound on your CD's will depend on the quality of your sound card and software used.
Part of the higher cost of the component audio CD recorders is the cost of the A/D and D/A converters inside the unit.
Most "standard" PC sound cards do not have very good A/D converters.

While EasyCD Creator is a useful program, it is not the best way to make a "quality" transcription of an LP to CD.

With a good turntable, cartridge, pre-amp, a-d card, and software, your LP-CD conversions can have better sonic qualities than commercial CDs.
