You could use [Darkcast](http://www.darkice.org/) to stream to [Icecast](https://www.icecast.org/) which in turn sets up a web radio stream that you could add to MA! You could use this to stream your turntable around the house for example. Here is a [generic tutorial](https://maker.pro/raspberry-pi/projects/how-to-build-an-internet-radio-station-with-raspberry-pi-darkice-and-icecast) and for those that like a nice step by step [look here](https://github.com/gieljnssns/darkice-libaacplus-rpi-guide/blob/master/README.md). For input a [HiFiBerry](https://www.hifiberry.com/docs/hardware/comparison-of-hifiberry-cards-for-audio-recording/) could be used or a USB Audio Interface like [this one](https://www.behringer.com/product.html?modelCode=0805-AAC) or [this one](https://www.ikmultimedia.com/products/irigstream/)
You could use [Darkcast](http://www.darkice.org/) to caputure and [Icecast](https://www.icecast.org/) to build a solution will digitize and stream audio from your analog audio equipment like a vinyl record player (turntable/phonograph/gramophone) as a web radio stream (URL) that you could add as a Music Provider in Music Assistant.

For such a project you need audio-capture and ADC (analogue-to-digital converter) device hardware that provide audio-input and digitalization. For example, you can use either a USB Audio Device Interface adapter from [Behringer](https://www.behringer.com/catalog.html?catalog=Category&category=C-BEHRINGER-AUDIOINTERFACES-USBAUDIOINTERFACES) or [IK Multimedia](https://www.ikmultimedia.com/products/irigstream/), or a [HiFiBerry board with ADC](https://www.hifiberry.com/blog/need-some-input/).

You can find a generic tutorial [here](https://maker.pro/raspberry-pi/projects/how-to-build-an-internet-radio-station-with-raspberry-pi-darkice-and-icecast), and for those that like step-by-step guides look [here](https://github.com/quebulm/Raspberry-Pi-Vinyl-Streamer) and [here](https://github.com/gieljnssns/darkice-libaacplus-rpi-guide/blob/master/README.md) (the first of which also offers a pre-configured Linux appliance image for Raspberry Pi 3 / Raspberry Pi Zero 2 W).
