Can you use this converter just to 'listen' to my records on my own turntable thru my computer?Or does it only convert songs/tracks to files?

Yes you can. I can't get itunes to work so I can't rip the songs but I can still listen to them.

I've never done it that way but Yes you should be able to. At worst you would make a track as you listen, then you could save or delete. I/ve copied most of my vinyl and burned to CD as well as having a copy on my computer. Audacity works well (free)

This turntable allows you to connect to your computer and transfer 33 1/3 vinyl records into your computer. This is done by using the software that comes with the product,however it is not easy and the instructions are hard to follow.You indicated DVD I think you mean CD's which are for music.

Yes. I think you mean hooked up to your receivers "tape monitor" I have my Teac connected to my pre amp (in your case, receiver) via the "tape monitor/tape loop and my turntable is hooked up to the phono section of said pre amp (in your case, receiver) and I transfer my albums to cd all the time. Just use the "line in" on the Teac set your record level and you should be good. As stated in other answers, you can plug the turntable directly to the Teac also. Enjoy!

Nope, u can use ur own and it has both digital and phono outputs. Awesome turntables, i could write paragraphs about how good these are. I know its blasphemous to say as a dj but I like these stantons better than 1200's ;)

Yes, because of the USB capabilities, I believe this model has a pre-amp already installed in it. Some receivers have a pre-amp installed, if there is a "phono" input. Mine does not and I use the "CD" input. I haven't tried it, but I would assume you could connect the turntable directly to speakers and it would be fine.

Honestly, I've never used the software. In the past I've used Quicktime on the mac to convert vinyl with a portable Ion record player I have. And that worked fine. But I'd say give it a shot and see how it works. Sorry I couldn't be more help. T

I use mine just to transfer to MP3's so the quilty is dropped, and this on does work fine for that but.... If you really want quilty the AT-LP120-USB or Pro-Ject Debut Carbon is a better sounding for the low cost Here is a good artical on turntables http://www.crutchfield.com/S-n9AFgf2O75T/learn/learningcenter/home/audio/turntables.htmlGood lock

I believe so. It's standard RCA stereo connection IN to the adapter, then USB OUT to the computer. So I would think any sound source that is coming RCA OUT to RCA IN should be fine. I used my tape deck and my turntable. Only thing you might have to play with is the PHONO/LINE switch. When I used my turntable directly into the adapter, I had to use the PHONO setting. It's really easy to use and I think it's a great product.

Gary, I gave the turntable to someone as a Chrsitmas gift, so I'm sorry that I am unable to specifically answer your question. I recommend you contact the manufacturer's customer support department for more information regarding interfacing it to a Mac. I can report to you that the person I gave it to absolutely loved it, and has since moved out of state, so is not readily available to question about his experience. I can tell you that my own personal experience with Mac's is that their "plug and play" designs are excellent, requiring little or no user technical expertise.

If your turntable does not have an internal preamp, then you will need an external phono preamp prior to input into one of the audio inputs on the receiver. Decent ones are available for about $50: http://www.amazon.com/ART-II-Preamplifier-Outputs-Switchable/dp/B000AJR482

It works better connected directly to your turntable. But you can connect it to your receiver, you will have to adjust the gain, and monitor the output volume, and use the line input switch on the adapter.. I've used it connected directly to my turntable, and the files come out perfect!! It sounds just like you were playing it through your receiver. You just have to make sure you connect the ground wire from the turntable to the adapter.. This cuts out the hum.. Great device.. Buy it, you won't regret it..

Hi Ann, you need an amplifier. You can't directly connect this on a turntable. -Vincent

No. This is a preamplifier and not a digital-to-analog converter. The USB is intended to connect to your computer that utilizes Audacity or any other audio editing software to record your vinyl to either your hard drive or your MP3 player like the iPod. For its price, it's a very good preamplifier from a reliable time-tested company like Rega.

Hi Mike, Yes, you can hook up your turntable , it will play through "line in" as the source Jack

Does your turntable or cassette deck have a USB port? If so, then this cable may likely work for you. If you hope to play audio out, then try and capture it from your computer via the USB port, i'm not sure what software might allow this, if any. http://www.avsforum.com/forum/index.php Avs forums might have more information for you here.

yes I believe turntable with a usb connection will work just fine. the older styled one's may not as the inputs may not be ont the system. I really like this stereo for I can play cd's and not have to change them so often. Hope this helps

Hi, I'm not familiar with that turntable, but if it accepts a USB connection, I would think so. Hope this helps.
