Roxio Easy LP to MP3 | LP and Cassette to CD or MP3 Audio Converter [PC Disc]

This program works for whatever my husband needed it for. He was very pleased at the ease of installing and using this product. Would recommend to those looking for this type of program

Ive installed the product on a Windows 7 system and tried recording an LP through the USB port. When I do that it seems to think that the usb port is a speaker because I can hear the PC noises through a headphone attached to the Roxio Audio Capture box. There is no sound from the resulting MP3 file that should have been the captured song. The other problem is that this seems to turn off my speakers all together. Im going to try to connect through the sound card, instead of USB and see how that goes. If that fails I have a Windows XP system and I may try to install there. After reading other reviews here I wont even bother with Roxio support....

I dont think Ive ever had a Roxio program that works reliably with Windows. This is a program I use occasionally, but it seems that every time I use it, I have to insert the installation disc, and repair the program using Control Panel. If not, it goes through the motions of recording an album, and then you get a pop up notice that says Please wait while Windows configures Roxio Easy LP to MP3 - and there it hangs for eternity. And as I said, this isnt the first Roxio program Ive seen with compatibility issues. My suggestion is that they either work out their issues with Microsoft, or get the hell out of the software business, and stop taking money for products that dont work. Another annoying feature when it does work is that whatever search engine they use is clueless. Recording a single album, it will randomly identify tracks as coming from three or four different albums, so you then have to manually renumber and reassign them. Its not a huge intuitive leap to work out that if the first three tracks are from one album, theres a high likelihood that the other seven are too!

This product has no support , it is not a Roxio item and has been sold to Corel . Update server keeps saying try update later . I tried for 3 weeks and always the same response . Corel , Roxio and Amazon should be ashamed of themselves for selling this garbage ! No 800 support without going to there PREMIUM service which means you pay them to fix there poor product . What JUNK !!!

Easy to install and use. Instructions are clear. Still learning to use. Have not had a chance to do a lot with the noise reduction parts of the program.

After reading all of the reviews, I bought this product, knowing from the negative reviews it might be somewhat complicated. When I first tried the product, I saw how some users might complain. This is a very good product and comes with an entire suite of software. I stumbled until I learned all the hows and whys. In the end, there are very few limits to what can be accomplished using this product.

Received quickly and works great

I was a record collector starting in my early teens when todays Classic Rock songs were being issued as new releases. Many of these old albums were hard to find 40 years ago. What a great way to listen to them without buying them a second time! I have a nice stereo and an expensive turntable that still work fine. The amp/pre-amp setup did not have a line-out connection available so I connected my computer and Roxio to the headphone jack on the amplifier. I went to a guitar store to buy a quality converter to connect the 3.5mm jack supplied in the package to the larger headphone jack used in my stereo. There are more capabilities to manage the raw recording before you create MP3 files than I had expected. Close to Sound Forge quality, but not as robust in fine tuning features. I have been kept busy ripping the albums and songs I have not found on iTunes or in CD format. Old cassette tapes come across just as easily. A great buy!

Easy should be removed from the box description. What a pain in the YKW! Directions for alternative connections to your receiver stink. Obviously, the users guide writers have never worked with the product. I spent over 3 hours with the on line chat guy. He finally ask if I had a my own RCA cable than what came in the box. Try that cable and see if works he writes. Like I have a 10 RCA cable. Doesnt everyone?! What a joke. Bottom line is I have re-packaged this worthless product and will return it. Nothing worse then being told its so easy only to find no support phone # (disconnects when you enter the # you want) The chat line person pretty much had no clue. Easy? Not at all. Easily a waste of your time and money. Do not buy this product!!

This was a 2009 Christmas gift from my Wife & Daughter. I have used other Roxio products in the past, so I was somewhat familiar with what to expect. This is Version 10.3.104 Pros: Fast and easy. Crisp, clean results. Fairly inexpensive ($50 online) Cons: No warning that the turntable needs a pre-amp. Software hijacks the Speakers/Sound card. I would give this product 5 stars, except for these cons. It comes in a small box with various cables and adapters for connecting your turntable. Your turntable MUST be pre-amplified to line levels. This is not mentioned anywhere before you purchase, a big Con in my opinion. I was lucky enough to have an Aiwa PX-E860 which has a pre-amp. The heart of this system is the RCA to USB adapter and the Software itself. I think a person could use this software with just their sound card if they dont want to use the adapter. Also the software hijacks the sound card and you have to plug your speakers or headset into the USB adapter, if you want to hear the music while recording. Another big Con, in my opinion. I have not figured out how to get the speakers back yet. Im pretty sure it will be a simple thing, I just havent chased it down yet. Software installation is just like every other package these days. Insert the CD, it autostarts, answer in the affirmative to Licensing glop and Legal noise, agree to default directories and go. There is a 16 page Getting Started Guide, but the software is fairly intuitive and I got my first LP started without the Guide. To capture your music, just put on the LP and follow the Guide. It really is easy. If it doesnt capture the splits properly, there is an editor that lets you quickly adjust the tracks. You can fill in all the Track Info and save to various mp3 bit rates or other formats. The Sound Editor also has all the standard filters for noise, hiss, pop, etc. It will also let you create and burn to CDs. Botton line, I was REALLY pleased with the final results! This really is the easiest way I have found so far, to convert LPs to digital format. My final results were truely crisp and clean.
