A detailed view of one of my mixing consoles {Yamaha}
Composed in 85F warming light using my Philips Spot Light which I've had since I was a 17 years old teenager!

Digital audio myth debunked here with evidence in physics mathematics and chemistry. The chemical makeup of the vinyl record has influence on the physics and the mathematics of what your stylus and cardridge (moving magnet / moving coil) will pickup.
Be amazed at the fact that the signal remains smooth when going through AD DA conversion all the way up to the Nyquist frequency
Watch, listen and learn

Analog and digital have gotten married since the 1980's when we analyze the Vinyl Signal path.
My current signal path
* Vinyl Direct Drive Turntable to mix.
* Audio Interface3 to mix.
* Always on HW Music player to mix.
* Instrument Mixer
* Yamaha Mixing Console
* AUX0 send FX Rack
* AUX1 send FX Rack
* AUX0 Return Master Bus
* AUX1 Return Master Bus
* Mixing Console to Headphone AMP0
* Mixing Console to Headphone AMP1
* Mixing Console to Digitizer send
* DAW receive
You can clearly see a mix of digital and analog equipment in my Studio hardware setup, which IS mostly analog on purpose
Vinyl has crucial digital equipment in its signal path of production. Without it your records would sound terrible. SO get over it, you need digital even as an Analog purist

Motorized Faders Make An Awesome Volume Mixer For Your PC

The only problem is that the controls for this are usually buried away. [CHWTT] found a way to make life easier <a href="https://www.instructables.com/5-Fader-Per-App-Volume-Control-Mixer-With-Motorize/" target="_blank">by creating a physical mixer to handle volume levels instead.</a></p>
<p>The build relies on a piece of software called <a href="https://www.midi-mixer.com/" target="_blank">MIDI Mixer</a>. It’s designed to control the volume levels of any application or audio device on a Windows system, and responds to MIDI commands. To suit this setup, [CHWTT] built a physical device to send the requisite MIDI commands to vary volume levels as desired. The build runs on an Arduino Micro. It’s set up to work with five motorized faders which are sold as replacements for the Behringer X32 mixer, which makes them very cheap to source. The motorized faders are driven by L293D motor controllers. There are also six additional push-buttons hooked up as well. The Micro reads the faders and sends the requisite MIDI commands to the attached PC over USB, and also moves the faders to different presets when commanded by the buttons.</p](https://files.mastodon.social/cache/media_attachments/files/115/993/086/942/589/885/original/319c0e40ce65e83a.png)
