"Digital Recording"

The software instructions should be more explicit. Several subtle roadblocks were encountered in trying to get the finised product,i.e.,conversion of an LP track to a CD track.Getting sound for monitoring became a case for trial and error as did saving and conversion of the project to a CD. For instance, the term "Drop Out" popped up and there was no explanation or cure available in any of the instructions or tutorials. Echo was discussed but the suggested solution was useless.

This turntable worked as well as you can expect. Everything about setting it up was easy but when it came time to use the enclosed software, PYRO Audio Creator and Audacity, I ran into trouble. I couldn't get either one to work and ended up using a Roxio program (which was totally up to the job). For $100 it's worth it.
Just a note: contrary to what this product's name might suggest, this is not some sort of fancy computer-ready turntable that will interface directly with your computer. Instead, this is essentially an ordinary turntable with a built-in preamp, that also happens to packaged with all the cables, adapters, and software that you need to plug directly it into your computer's sound card for the purposes of ripping vinyl.
Full Disclosure: I have never used this product with my computer and I've never used the software that came with it. I bought this roduct because it was inexpensive and I simply use this as the turntable that is plugged into my stereo so I can listen to records, and it does that very well!
If you have a stereo that doesn't have a PHONO input, the built-in preamp will allow you to plug your record player into any AUX jack, and you won't need to turn your volume all the way up just to hear anything. If you DO have a PHONO jack (or if you have a standalone preamp), you can simply flip a switch and turn the preamp off, and it's a regular turntable.
I didn't give this 5 stars because I've noticed that, compared to my old turntable, the sound is *slightly* muddier and not as crisp. Most people wouldn't notice, but I am pretty anal. Still, I haven't rushed out to buy a new record player. This one works just fine, and I'll probably run it into the ground. If you can get it cheap, I recommend it!

Awesome machine that turns your smoldy oldy vinyls into cd's-right on your PC AND saves your music files. Quick and inexpensive-perfect for the baby boomers who are holding onto Deep Purple and Alice Cooper vinyls!!
This item did exactly what I needed it to do - convert LP's to CD - easy use, great software and great price!

Bought this for my husban'd birthday and he's not a huge computer guy. He was able to figure out how to separate the songs after playing with it for about an hour. Documentation that comes with it is pretty thin. He's ripped 15 of his Misfits/old punk albums so far and is ready to do more. It's funny how you get spoiled with uploading CD's at 4x speed - you actually have to play the whole album with this. It's just time consuming.
