LP to .mp3 using a scanner - looking for article

Sorry if wrong forum, but this question quickly dissappeared in the "off topic" section.


A while back, maybe 2ish months ago, I remember reading on some sort of news site...something like cnet.com.....about a person who wrote a program that could take the optically scanned image of an LP record, read the bumps on the record and convert it to a digital audio format.
Quality was fair-poor, but pretty neat considering. I rember reading the article then going to the person's website...look at the source code of his program and listening to some samples. Because it was so long ago, my history no longer contains the URL....

I am looking for either the news article or the website I have tried search engines including Google....but no luck.

Can anyone help?

Thanks!
 
I'm about 95% sure that it was in MaximumPC, if that helps. They said that it didn't do a very good job though.
 
BINGO! Found it.

PCMAG website...Mar2003..."20 Things You Didn't Know Your PC Could Do"

Search for "LP" (choose the Match Case option)....BINGO.....



Here's the site.....very impressive considering he's doing it for "fun"....not as a job.
