Hi there: I recently picked up the Numark TT-USB. It works quite well for vinyl transfer. The cartridge sounds OK, although I'm sure there are better ones available. I typically use Audacity to record its output, but I'm still experimenting with the noise reduction. It has been quite a treat having some old favourites available on my iPod thanks to the TT-USB. Other nice touches are a 1/8" stereo input, a variable speed control. Ion Audio http://www.ion-audio.com also carries a number of USB turntables, and even a USB cassette deck, for archiving all those mixtapes. ION also has a TT-USB model, which doesn't surprise as it seems that Ion might be a budget line of Numark. cheers, ernie -- "Both Rob and I see sound as shapes.
