The transition of Vinyl to Digital – USB Turntable
November 26, 2009 by Ion Audio Shop
Most people have a stack of old vinyl records lying in their attic simply growing dusty given the fact that they are “outdated” and most people do not even have a record player in their home.
However, if you are one of those people hanging on to your old records in the hope that one day you will get a new player and dust off the remains of your old vinyl collection, you may be delighted to hear that there is a much simpler answer. In fact, this solution can even have you listening to your records in the car; it’s called the USB turntable.
The USB turntable by Ion is one of the most innovative products ever released to help you take the past world of vinyl into the digital world of today. Simply put, the USB turntable was created in order to transfer the music that is on vinyl into a digital MP3 on your computer, which you can then convert into any other system you want.
This way, before long you can be listening to any of your old LPs on an MP3 player, or in the car, or you could choose to burn a CD after transferring the files.
The best part of trying out the USB turntable is that it is so simple to use, as you only need to have a computer and some vinyl records to get started. In fact, finding your old collection and cleaning off the dust may be more of a task than the actual transition from vinyl to digital. This is because using the small transition box is almost as simple as burning a CD, without having to use any actual software, or learn how to use a new program.
In order to use the USB turntable the first step is to plug it onto your computer via the USB port. After this step, you simply need to place the vinyl record onto the USB turntable and press the button to start the record playing, and the machine will automatically send it over to your computer in MP3 format.
When you plug your computer into the USB turntable the software will automatically install for you, so you do not have to worry about anything on the technical side of things. Thus, you can have your vinyl collection in digital format in no time at all.
