Nice Turntable But WHERE Is the DUST COVER?!

Strengths: Easy to use Reasonably priced

Weakness: No Dust Cover!!!! (rather unforgiveable of ION not to include a cover!)

This USB turntable was purchased to solve our need to convert a lifetime collection of LPs into CDs. So far, things are going reasonably well, although we were (naively, I guess) anticipating that we could CONVERT and BURN CDs in ONE step rather than having to convert, then save as .wav files, then burn as CDs. It is a little disappointing that it is taking so long to produce the CDs. About 2 or...

Great Gift Idea

Father-in-law loves it. It's a very easy way for even the not-so-savvy computer users to get all the old vinyl tracks into digital format. He hasn't complained yet.

Ion Audio ITTUSB Turntable

Strengths: Very Easy Setup and Use. Straight forward directions. Audacity Software included is very nice for editing your recordings.

Weakness: Needs a dust cover and a place to store the 45 adapter

Wow! Talk about taking a trip down memory lane. Listening to all the old vinyl from days gone by is sweet. The turntable is very easy to use. From the novice to expert PC person. You will have no troubles using the audio capturing software. The best part of the software is that it is opensource. So, it is constantly being updated and improved, plus it's free! Its only weakness is no dust cover,...

Good things are always hard to find. This is a great...

Strengths: Universal USB integration with MacOS 10.4.x. Provided software is good with some unique features. Great cartridge and stylus - don't have to use my own. Can be used with many OSX audio applications.

Weakness: No Cover or dampend cue. Plastic platter. Anti-Skate mechanism seems cheezy. Software - Freeware and lacking in features that I have come to depend upon with SpinDoctor. MIDI setup not as described.

This is the best piece of audio gear I have purchased in a long time. It doesn't look like much, but does it perform. For years I have dreamed of archiving and having my vinyl on CD or as digital files. My good tables are long gone and my beaters are dead. This setup makes it so very easy. I have only used the USB connection, but it also has RCA with an onboard preamp with line switching and...

Good turntable - fair software

Strengths: Quick easy turntable setup. USB and line output

Weakness: Software is less powerful than others. No dust cover nor cueing lever.

I have been trying to convert an extensive collection of vinyl LPs to digital music, both to burn CDs and load on my hard disk. Using my turntable with simple audio output (not line out) did not work. It actually fried my audio card. This looked like an ideal solution. Most reviews criticized the software, but I am using Magix's Audio Cleaning Lab so I didn't think the software would be a...

A Sweet Piece

Strengths: Easy to use, high-quality, great results!

Weakness: None yet!

This is a great innovation. For years I've been sitting on the fence of the digital revolution, since much of my music collection consists of LPs that are quite literally impossible to find on CD -- trust me, no one has, nor will, put much of this stuff on CD. So it was with glee that I found the Ion ITTUSB. Within minutes of getting it out of the box I was recording some of my old treasures to...

ittUSB turntable

Strengths: Very easy to use - not quite plug-and-play, but pretty close!

Weakness: Third-party software required to convert music to MP3 etc.

I was a little apprehensive since this has software that must be installed -- but it is very easy to install. After that, just plug the USB into your computer, and you're ready to go. My first attempt at transferring music from an LP was very smooth. I was a little disappointed that to save the music in a format I could transfer to my iPod I needed to go to a website and download another piece of...

Fast and easy way to convert vinyl to digital

Strengths: Easy USB plug-in. Audio conversion software (included) covers basic needs. Decent cartridge included with turntable.

Weakness: No damped cueing. No auto off/return when record side is done playing. No dust cover.

So long as you're not an exacting and demanding audiophile who requires the very best in all your audio components so as to achieve the highest quality sound... this is a great turntable to use when converting "those old records off the shelf" to CDs. The USB hook-up couldn't be easier, and the Audacity software included with the turntable certainly covers all the basic needs for conversion. By...

USB Turntable

Strengths: easy to use

Weakness: no cover

The thing that makes this so easy to use is the user guide which gives you step by step instructions on how to use Audacity to record audio and then split it up into separate tracks. It doesn't go into the more advanced features of Audacity but it gives you enough to get going.
