New: Profile Black USB Turntable
Simply plug either of these chic little turntables into the nearest USB port, fire up the idiot-proof EZ vinyl converter software and start converting your collection. Forget about clumsy adaptors, special drivers and mismatched software. It's easier than, er...well, it's easier than putting a record on!
Comes with USB cable and Audio in/out
Whether it's Whitesnake, Wham, Spandau or some ancient disc belonging to your dad, the USB Turntables can convert it. And it doesn't matter what speed the records in question are - these Turntables can handle both 33s and 45s. So why not forget about buying any new music for a while and rediscover your vinyl. All right? Not 'arf!

iProfile: USB Turntable with iPod Dock
When you do decide to hook up to a PC, you can switcheroo tracks into whatever playlist you fancy and automatically ID your newly acquired music using the included Gracenote software. You can even transfer music via traditional USB and hook the player up to your home system to listen to your platters in all their crackly, undigitized, erm, glory.
Recording to MP3
This simple guide explains how to record MP3s using your USB Turntable and the EZ vinyl converter software (included). This process is very similar for other operating systems.

"For dusty-fingered vinyl junkies, transferring treasured old records to digital audio files used to involve loads of cables and more than a little computing knowledge.

Surely, the best EVER USB tool for a PC? It's always been such a pain transferring vinyl to a PC, but this little beaut makes the process simple. I've been happily routing round my loft and garage looking for long, long classics to encode. Briliiant.Simon Young, Warwick - Mar '07
A truly brilliant and useful gadget. I received the order exactly as scheduled, removed packaging, assembled, loaded software, fetched the vinyl out of the attic and started recording all within 20 minutes. Very simple to use, the only downside is that there is no cover.Dal, Worcester - Feb '07
I just started using my turntable this weekend and it is awesome! I recommend this to anyone looking to convert their vinyl to digital. It also seems to work with Windows Media Center on my system, so I wouldn't be afraid of that issue.Randy Lane, Marshalltown,Iowa - Feb '07
Can anyone tell me whether this will work with iPods? Or will I need to convert the files afterwards?
Sorry to be thick - technology not really my bag but thinking of buying this for my husband.
Thanks.Vicki Robinson, Leeds - Nov '06
I just heard about this product and would love to convert some of my vinyl onto my iPod. My only concern is whether this is compatible with a MAC and if so what software does it work with?Rob, Buckinghamshire - Nov '07
I'm seriously considering purchasing this package. Just one question, will It separate the tracks as on a CD OR does It record an album as one track?David Hellawell, Holmfirth. Yorkshire - Jan '07
I too am very keen to purchase one of these fantastic products but am keen to know if an entire side of an LP needs to be saved as one mp3 (and then manually split into individual mp3 files for each track) or whether the software is clever enough to do this automatically?Step, Norwich - Jan '07
I'd like to have one of these turntables, but I've got Windows Media Center edition. What's the problem with this version of Windows? Is there a workaround?Mike, Kent - Nov '06
I am about to buy one, but have a question. Can the turntable also be used as a standard turntable connected to an amp not a computer?
ie: once I've transferred some vinyl, can I use it to simply play vinyl?Phil Barrett, Bedfordshire - Nov '06
Will scratching on this turntable knacker up the stylus?
Or will it not...?Conor Devine, Bedfordshire - Nov '06
