GordN, it does take a good vinyl and needle but if it sounds good when you just play it through a amp then the PC is not recording correctly. I did try CKUA. Very nice Jazz but I could not get the DylanRadio to play, kept getting a error. Thanks for tip.

I eventually got some done by the mighty CKUA radio station in Alberta CN, (look ’em up, eclectic and variety galore!) after a long back and forth. Really? You play shellac records on the air but you can’t put my vinyl into a digital format?!

(Ed note: The link to that product was added by me since there was no link in the article.)

You are correct, if you want to use all the bells and whistles available, a little guidance is in order. However, out of the box for straight recording trimming is a no brainer.

Yogesh, that is an excellent question. I always put the link to the item along with the screen grab and obviously it is no longer available at that price. I checked and the screen grab was taken on Nov. 13 and might have been a Black Friday price, but I don’t remember it stating so. The closest I have found today is the: Record Player Belt-Drive Turntable with Bluetooth Output Connectivity Support 2 Speeds (33&45RPM) RCA Output Line Vinyl Record Player with Magnetic Cartridge Built-in Phono Pre-amp For $99.99 obviously not direct drive. I wish I had a better answer for you and would have bought it myself if I didn’t already have the Technics SL1200 from 1976. It cost me about $350 back then. Again, my apologies I take most of my screen grabs from Amazon In my research today I did see a used one for $136. Good luck I hope you find a deal.
