Loricraft Record Cleaning

I've put off buying a record cleaning machine for years now, and doing it by hand is just getting old (So am I for that matter). Seems like everyone has an opinion on which machine is best, but nothing really negative on the Loricraft machines.

I'm looking for a used machine if possible, and if someone has one and is tired of cleaning records period, let me know. If you can point me to a solution or have a reason why I'm completely out in left field, that's helpful as well.

Thanks for the input!

Thanks Paul & Halcro.
Going to order L'Art Du Son today. I wish I got presents of LPs. Unfortunately all my US friends build vinyl collections for free.

Paul, is Music Collector free or sharewware? I keep entering everything is a big spreadsheet. I rate the quality of sound, pressing, condition of LP, how much I spent & how I cleaned it. It is a pain, but I keep finding I buy things I already have so I have to do it.

Dgad,

It's a commercial program at www.collectorz.com. I have the Movie Collector Pro and also the Music Collector Pro. The Music Collector Pro is of course oriented toward CD's, but it still does a great job on records. You enter the name of the album and it will search several locations on the internet for the album data. Most time it finds the equivalent CD, but that's OK. On CD's you can even scan the bar code, or put the CD into your computer drive and it will read the info directly.

It then imports the album cover, track info, etc into its' data base. You can then manually edit anything. Then like a good data base, you can search on any field.

The software comes from the Netherlands and I've been using it for 4-5 years. The probably have a free trial version that you could download. Give it a try.
