I would like to retro-fit my 1970's pioneer turntable to be able to record onto a iPod or other USB device.
Contents
Operation
- Plug in USB stick or iPod
- Press record-pause
- Place stylus on a chosen track
- Signal level threshold trigger changes to record when the stylus hits the record
- Sound file is written onto the device
- Signal level threshold trigger stops recording after a few seconds pause (manual pause provided also)
Systems
- Power supply
- plug pack 12V 100mA
- Split from it's case and wired in parallel on the AC side of the turntable's main transformer
- Analogue phono stage (requires ±12V DC)
- to be build on veroboard
Microcontroller
- Arduino NG AVR microprocessor board
- Schematics
Features
- ATmega168 AVR processor
- Digital <-> Analogue converter
- C library and compiler supplied as open source
Operating system
- gcc, libc supplied and open source
- No real operating system required
- svn tree
- bootloader supplied and open source
- Program to modify iPod's XML playlist file to add the newly created track to the playlist
Main loop
- boot up
- USB device?
- loop
- yes-mount fs and open file descriptor
- no-loop
- set led to Red
- loop
- check A to D for signal input
- check threshhold
- begin recording
- or
- loop
- begin recording
