i am not much of a techno head, so please bear with me in my summary.if you are like me and have collected records over the years this piece if gadgetry is a must for various reasons.i have a lot of records and a lot of the recordings are pretty much unavailable, also i don't see the point in spending out for music that which i already have and most importantly i wanna have something which i can have as a backup - ie imagine if ur most precious and hard to come by sounds get scratched or the record gets warped and becomes unplayable - are we talking major depression ?
As for the gadget itself - there is not enough praise for it, very easy set up,adjustable db- there are three settings, simply play the record with each setting and find the one that delivers a better sound - very simple, the instructions and software are very easy to follow, once the recording is complete you can use the software to erase any hisses and clicks and any minor scratches.the beauty now is, that i can save the recoding as an mp3 file, i can save it as a wav file which i can burn onto cd and play on any cd player or i can save it as an mp3 file which i can save to disc, i have an mp3 cd player in the car (very handy) or listen to it (mp3)on my dvd player through the surround system, also i can put the tracks on my portable mp3 player - wicked.
most importantly i have music that is not restricted just to the record player,also one initial payout has meant i have saved money on buying cd music, and with the mp3 facility i can have near enough 10 lps on one disc.
if u were unsure before hopefully i have confirmed that this is one essential buy.
