## Description

Profile Lp Usb Turntable

Review: Has one purpose and does it well. - Has one purpose and does it well. If you want a high quality turntable for djing, then go get one... for $350. This product records vinyl to computer. The real question is about the QUALITY OF RECORDING. Software included is crap. Configured Audacity to rip music and playback sound at the same time (so I can hear what I'm recording), then output to 320 kbps. Works great now. I play the tracks using extend stereo settings to 5.1 surround so I can really hear the quality at full volume. Studio headphones and dolby HDMI surround sound are really the only way to know the quality. I also tweaked the quick keys in Audacity to play, stop, record, zoom to track, zoom in, zoom out, delete blank sections, export tracks, etc.. so that recording, trimming, exporting is like lightning fast. The only reason I use the mouse is to select the sections for trimming, otherwise I don't even use the mouse. Pros: - Sound quality digitally converted from needle seems to be enough for 320 kbps VBR. If you're ripping to studio quality WAV files or other, I'm not sure. 320 is enough for me :) I'm not THAT much of an audiophile lol - USB connectivity, flawless and easy. Plug and play. - Sleek design. I have no problem with displaying this, not matter where it's sitting. - Has 2 speeds and a converter for those weird little records hahaha Cons: - Needle is pretty noisy. When the sound is just recording, but muted, you can hear the music clearly through the needle. It kinda makes me wonder how much sound from the room it's in, is being recorded also? Haven't noticed any yet... - Belt driven and Automatic. As a dj, of course I always hated the idea of belt driven automatic turntables, but in this case, it's not that bad, actually it can kind of helps if you walk away while recording in Audacity. It will automagically stop the record spinning and put the needle back on the mount for you once it's done. In this ONE case, automatic could possibly be a PRO. I just need this thing to make it through recording about 2000 records, average 3 songs each record (6000 songs). I bought it used (new condition) for like $57. If it makes it through 6000 songs and is still kickin, I would say it is more than worth it! Might have to replace the needle at 3000 songs. Will update in a few years when I'm done lol.
Review: Works great. - I don't usually go five stars, but this unit simply didn't have anything about it to detract more than half a star, so we round up to five. This unit was a great price (~$65) for what it is and how stylish it looks. Sure, it is all plastic, but it feels hefty and looks great. It has very large, stable, rubbery feet and a heavy turntable pad. Packaging was great, everything fragile was wrapped nicely, especially the needle area, and the shiny blackness was covered in a cloth-like sheath (cloth nice enough I used it to wipe the dust off the album I ripped). Operation: Just plug it in and run the USB cord (standard size and a cord is included) to your Mac or PC. I have a Mac, and while the provided software (on a CD-ROM) was rudimentary, it had me up and running literally within minutes. I opted to download the free Audacity, and it worked great to start recording. I will admit I was so out of practice with turntables that I was wondering where the "ON" button was, but all you need to do is lift the arm, move it over the album, and it spins up. Lower the arm and you've got sound. (When it is done, the auto shutoff appeared to work as you would expect). Signal appeared to be strong and clear, and I did not need to amplify the gain in Audacity to have resulting MP3s that sound like they are at the same level as various eMusic MP3 downloads of CD rips. It also wasn't overly amplified/distorted or compressed as far as I could tell, but I am not an expert in turntables enough to know how good the needle/head is. I ripped an album with no problem and it sounded good. The lid closes softly and snugly, so I assume that helps keep some noise off the needle, too. Other goodies. The RCA output is nice, though the cord is hard-attached to the back as opposed to being modular (jacks), but you can get adapters to make this pipe through a longer cord, a headphone jack, whatever. I didn't test that but assume it works. It's a nice add-on. An even nicer add on is the line IN. I didn't test that either, but theoretically that would let you pipe through ANY analog source and convert it to a USB audio signal. I realize most computers are already going to have an sound recording line in, but this USB input can be a secondary route to get pretty much any sound source you want sampled, all in one decent-looking package. One simply doesn't expect an electronics device (spanning decades from phonograph tech to USB signals) to come so cheaply or attractively. I sure don't, anyway.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Very nice, affordable, turntable
*by R***Y on March 21, 2012*

I purchased this turntable because I wanted a second one for my bedroom. I already own a Sony PS-LX250H Automatic Belt-Drive Turntable that is in my living room. I decided to go with another brand for a little bit of variety. This model is very decent for the casual listener. I got it for $25 as an open box on here, which is amazing. Set up was one of the easiest, 15 minutes with no help from the manual. But the fact that my goal is not to use this unit to transfer vinyls to mp3 sped up the process. So I didn't need to download anything from my computer and didn't use the CD that came with the turntable. I just wanted to use this unit to listen to my records when I'm in my bedroom, with no plans of converting them (converting vinyls to mp3 doesn't make sense to me as I'm already subscribed to a music service. I would almost always find a vinyl album digitally). This seems to be a good unit although it does not have an automatic start like the Sony unit. You do have to manually push the arm towards the record for it to play. There is however a "stop" button to stop playback. I'm sure audiophiles would want something of a higher end with better sounds. Update: April 20013 - I read some reviews here -- not too many but a few -- about the arm returning to the resting position when you try playing a record. I've also had that problem about three months after purchase and, for a while, stopped using this unit all together. But I'm reading on the same reviews on here that the solution to that problem is to rewind the record (like a DJ, with your hand, as if you were scratching) to about two revolutions before playback and it would fix the problem. I did just that and it seems to work fine with music playing. I'm not sure if I have to do that every single time I'm playing a record or if it's once in a while. But I'm happy I'm back using the unit when in my bedroom. Thanks to those who offered this suggestion.
