Will this item convert cassette tapes, video tapes, and LP vinyl records to mp3 files on my desktop?

It does not do the conversion. It is an adapter that allows you to connect you analog LP or tape player to a receiver or TV that requires a digital audio cable. It is most useful when you have used up all the analog (red/white) ports on the receiver.

Yes, I believe you can as the cassette player works well from the USB port of my desktop.

I have not tried that, but I have done it the other way around ... cassette to CD. I have found the unit to be very versatile and I've been very pleased with it. Note, however, that I am not a music or stereo equipment aficionado.

Yes it will. Once it records it you have to type in the name of the cut and, if it's an entire LP, The name of the album. It's in mp3 format. The reproduction is pretty good.

I am sorry, but I used it with Windows. I can tell you that since it was not compatible with my version, it directed me to the website to download the appropriate version and had no problems afterwards. Sorry I can't help you with the Mac OS, since I do not have it. I can tell you that if it were to work with the Mac OS, it is worth it. I must tell you, quality of sound recorded will depend upon the quality of your cassette tape sound, which is almost obvious, but I thought I should mention it. Good luck in finding your answer :-)

Sorry I can't help you. I have only used it to convert VHS tapes and edit them in order to burn to DVD's.

This is a very nice converter. I have had no issues what so ever.I have not tried to convert beta tapes. I would think that if the Beta player has A/V out puts it would work. You really should "go deeper" to get a positive answer.

I believe so - I was converting VHS "C" format & 8MM. Very cumbersome process and I had to find a player that played those devices. Somebody has to come our with a better system. But after ,many hours (dyas) I did get 2-3 movies to come out fairly clean and audible.

It will work with mp3 files. Select "TOOLS"; then "Transcribe Recording" enter the file name, etc and it will go to work.

yeshe Executive USB Portable Turntable easily takes your favorite vinyl and converts them to digital files. Simply plug in the USB cable, play your record and watch as the Executive creates digital files on your computer.

Yes, that's exactly what it does. You play the cassette in the device while it's connected via USB to your computer, and create a digital file which you may save in MP3 format, among many others.

This would help in what you're asking as long as your computer has a digital output and you need to convert it to the analog inputs on your tape deck.

It cannot directly do that. It can record from a cassette/record and output it in MP3 format to a USB memory stick. You can then burn the MP3 to CD using a separate computer - if your computer does such.

Not in and of itself, but if your computer does not have a cd drive (like a MacBook Air, retina MacBook Pro, current Mac mini or IMac) this will allow itunes to read and rip your cd and then convert to mp3

I've taken material off a cd and transferred it to an mp3. Seems like all the other recording stuff should work

Record the cassette to Audacity, then save the Audacity file to iTunes. Time-consuming but easy.

Don't use the CassetteMare software. It doesn't work. Use the Audacity software that's also provided on the CD in the package, then follow the instructions provided with the Audacity software, not the Audacity instructions in the manual provided in the package. That manual is useless. With a little effort, you can convert tapes to mp3s using Audacity.
