Ion Audio Profile LP USB DJ Turntable Review

I had to download the installation file from their website rather than from the CD (outdated) but once that was installed, I was golden. I wasn't prepared for the mp3's to sound as good as they did. Very, very easy to record songs & they sound great!

The PROFILE series of LP-conversion systems is designed with contemporary, low-profile looks and is finished in sleek, piano black. Each model is designed to capture the music from your vinyl records and turn it into portable, flexible, digital MP3s that you can enjoy at home and on the go.

The PROFILE LP Turntable The PROFILE LP is an LP-conversion system based on a multi-speed USB turntable. When not converting records, you can simply enjoy your classic vinyl records using PROFILE LP as a standard record player.
The belt-driven PROFILE LP features 33 1/3 and 45 RPM settings, a high-quality tonearm and cartridge, a raise/lower lever for the tonearm, and a standard RCA output (in addition to the USB port) for use with normal stereo setups.
USB-Enabled The turntable has simple USB output that enables you to capture music from records onto your computer. No drivers are necessary, simply plug it in to your Mac or PC and the audio will be sent via the USB port.
Conversion Software Included The PROFILE LP includes a software CD with EZ Vinyl Converter for PC (with auto track detection) and EZ Audio Converter for Mac. They are the simplest way to record and convert vinyl directly to iTunes. Before you know it, you'll be listening to songs you haven't heard in years in iTunes or on your iPod. A free download version of EZ Vinyl Converter with Gracenote MusicID is included for automatic track naming.
Audacity Software for Advanced Processing Audacity (PC and Mac) is intended for the advanced user. This application allows for advanced audio editing and processing, such as normalization, noise removal, 78 RPM speed conversion, and automatic track separation.

ION Audio U Record USB Music Archive System Review

ION Audio U Record USB Music Archive System

I used this for about a week. Combined with Audacity software it works perfectly- I've done noise reduction, set up the tracks automatically, normalize, all withing 30 minutes of install. I have not used the proprietary EZ Vinyl Converter, so I cannot comment. If using Audacity is "advanced", than EZ must me idiot proof.
The USB turntables are all over $100 and seem kind of cheap- all plastic, so if you already have and old turntable, save some money and get this for $50. I have a very nice old school Technics turntable that is 10 times better sounding than ones with the USB built in. I also bought a really old turntable that plays 78, and have been ripping some old opera recordings. No issues with that turntable.
