Good for the price, achieves its purpose, but... July 7, 2008 On the whole I am satisfied, but I think there could be some improvements, like perhaps Sony could provide a hard copy instruction booklet on how to use the software, for those who don't like or who are not used to reading online/onscreen help. Also, the webpage showing the product should include vital accessories you can buy together with the set, in particular, the replacement stylus meant for this model.
That said, it arrived at my place in perfect condition - from the USA all the way to Singapore.
USB made Easy July 5, 2008 This turntable is very inexpensive, but it works very good. The duel hookup (L/R RCA jacks + USB)is nice and the included software is top-shelf. This is a great way to add vinyl music to your mp3 collection.
Once you get past a quirk or 2, good stuff July 1, 2008 Everything plugged in fine, but right off the bat, I couldn't get any sound to come out of my computer speakers. I kept fiddling Options>Preferences>Audio within Sound Forge Audio Studio (which comes with the turntable), changing settings, then putting them back, & somewhere along the line, there was sound & there was ripping off my old vinyl & there was the easiest sound-file editing I've seen. I've quite happy with everything now ... though Sound Forge Audio Studio doesn't always detect the gaps between tracks so it crams multiple songs into 1 file, where the easy editing really helps.
NOT Compatible with Mac June 18, 2008 3 out of 3 found this review helpful
This item was purchased as a gift for a Mac user. There were no materials that outlined the "system requirements", but Mac users beware, this is Windows compatible only.
Can this be? No Sound while playing album? June 6, 2008 7 out of 7 found this review helpful
Can this be? No sound while the album is playing?
I got this unit yesterday and excitedly dropped what I was doing when it arrived. Trouble is I CAN'T HEAR ANY SOUNDS FROM MY PC while the unit's USB cable is connected to my Dell / Windosw XP PC.
I called Sony support and spent about an hour with them on calls yesterday and today. The bottom line is that they say it's SUPPOSED to work this way. Even thought the manual for the included "Sound Forge Audio Studio LE" software indicates that one should be able to hear sound while recording! Sony's attitude was pretty much "well, it's supposed to work that way, the manual is wrong, too bad."
Another reviewer (R.McAnally) wrote: "The software instructions in the manual will lead you to select a "record" option that will prevent you from hearing the audio as you record it. This was a little annoying until I found the "Vinyl Recording" feature.
If R. McAnally reads this and cares to comment more specifically about experiences hearing live sound, I'd LOVE it!
I was using this "Vinyl Recording and Resortation" tool in the software and even selected the "Monitor Input" selection and still no sound.
In my opinion, if I can't hear live sound from the album I'm recording, this product is worthless junk. I'll be looking to ship this one back to the Amazon affiliate and start shopping for a decent unit!
