I have recorded many albums using this method, tape out to mixer in. I have found this gives me more control over volume and tone that going directly into the soundcard.

I record using Sonar (only because I’m so used to it) but you can use either PTPA or RB. Actually after recording all of one album side on one track I split that track into many tracks with each track containing one song. I then bring each song track into PTPA and use the PG Vinyl tool and sometimes also the Pg 10 band EQ. As Bob has mentioned the PGVinyl tool is an exceptional tool and it is the only one use to clean up old vinyl.

Good luck
