listening through computer speakers? in addition to digitalizing the files is there a way to just simply listen to the records through the speakers on the computer you hook it up to?

Im also wondering the same thing, if there is a simpler version of just listening to old vinyls on your pc speakers

There may be other ways, but if all else fails, install the Audacity software (or other recording software), run Audacity, hit the "pause" button in Audacity, then hit "record". The sound will play through your speakers without recording. Make sure you have gone to "File > Preferences" in Audacity and selected ""Sofware Playthrough" under the "Audio I/O" tab first. Basically, you just need a way for your sound card to hear the recording input - this way is clunky but it works.

Yes. You can record the speaker to record your computer's sound, or you can record your narration using a microphone.

Thank you to everyone who answered. All I am looking to do is digitize a voice recording from an old tape I have lying around and hopefully the headphone jack it has will be enough...all the best!

There are indeed speakers in the record player. They do get pretty loud, however I would not turn up the volume all the way because the quality becomes diminished at that point. As for the quality, the speakers sound very nice. I'm no audio expert, but I hope this helped!

The only way I have used this turntable has been to input from vinyl directly into iTunes on my computer (a MAC running 10.6.8) via USB - sometimes via a free download called 'EZ Vinyl Converter' and sometimes, when I wanted to do some tweeking, via Audicity (also a free download). I have been very satisfied with the turntable for that purpose. But I'm afraid I haven't tried playing directly from the turntable into an audio system. Sorry if this is no help for your situation.

This unit does not change files on your computer in any way. It simply connects to the analog output and amplifies whatever is being played.

The turntable plugs into your computers USB and the sound would come out of your normal PC speakers. You can hook external speakers to the unit itself but don't need to.

Yes, absolutely. You can still listen through the speaker on the turntable while it is connected to your computer.

There are build in speakers on the system. The Sound is great/ clear but not too loud, just enough. It is a great system, I loved it, and many of our guest compliment on it. I recommend you to get one, I am sure you'll love it. It also comes with USB cable to upload your original records into your computer... Have fun!!

No digital out on the laptop. I use a Usb audio interface with a digital output

You can listen, but I purchased it to play tapes through my car radio, and you can also play back what's on to tapes on record on your PC. As far as I can tell, the only thing you can NOT do is record onto blank tapes on this unit. Unit works very well for the price. Includes cables.

I haven't tried it with the computer, but other answers seem to say that you can hear it through your computer speakers. If your stereo speakers are better then the ones with your computer you can probably also connect to your stereo and turn off the computer's speakers.

Yes, you plug a cable from this turntable into your sound card, or "line in" jack. You run the enclosed software (or other brands and versions available both free online and for purchase) to tell the computer to save the "file" (digital recording) as either a .wav or an mp3. Then you can burn those tracks to a CD, or play them from a flash drive, or put them on your iPod, or.... Hope this helps.

Hi - think you can still have your sound come from the computer. It has been awhile since I used the sound feature...

I just set mine up and it works fine. I use the USB connection and you need to click the input monitor in the lower toolbar so you can hear it. If that button is not lit up you won't hear it. You don't have to record it. My computer has speakers attached. I have Windows XP.

You can listen from the recorder. It has play and pause buttons. Very clear sound. Thx.

if you have a 3.5mm audio cable with RCA Jacks, you can connect them from the "audio output" located on the back of the computer or from the "headphone jack" output, to your receiver audio inputs, you'll have audio. Especially if you have a good sound system speakers!!! Any equipment having an RCA jack (L&R;) you can record from to your computer via. the USB input.firefly572002@yahoo.com
