Feb 26, 2008 8:11 PM
Audio-Technica has
introduced its new AT-LP2D-USB LP-to-digital recording system, a complete USB
turntable and software package for transferring vinyl records to digital media
files and CDs. The AT-LP2D-USB includes a turntable and phono cartridge, PC-
and Mac-compatible software, a USB cable that connects the turntable directly
to a computer and other accessories.
The turntable features
fully automatic operation and a 33-1/3 and 45 rpm speed selector to play vinyl
formats from LP albums to 12-inch and 7-inch singles. It's designed to deliver
high-quality sound, with a balanced aluminum platter, precision Dual Magnet
stereo cartridge with replaceable stylus and a pickup arm with soft damping
control. The turntable's supplied USB cable enables plug-and-play connection to
a desktop or laptop computer, and its built-in switchable phono preamp, RCA
output cables and adapter cables allow connection to a wide variety of music
and home entertainment systems, as well as to A/V receivers that do not include
a dedicated phono input.
Cakewalk PYRO (for PC) and
Audacity (for Mac or PC) software is included, to convert the audio on a record
to MP3, WAV or Windows Media audio files, for playback on a wide variety of
portable audio players, computers, home media centers and car audio systems.
The PYRO software also features DeClicker and DeNoiser utilities that
automatically remove pops, clicks, noise and hiss from LP recordings, as well
as design software for creating personalized CD jewel case artwork and CD
labels.
The Audio-Technica
AT-LP2D-USB LP-to-digital recording system is available now for $229 (MSRP);
