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

product didnt work, but DID arrive ahead of the scheduled arrival time.Product went straight to the garbage after trying it out, a complete waste of money/time. I ordered it anyway despite all of the rest of the negative reviews, DO NOT make the same mistake.

Im using my device to convert old records into digital format for my iPod. I was planning on using my laptop to accompolish this, however, when I run the laptop on AC the power unit makes a hum noise in the recording. This required that I use my desktop machine. The process is simple to use and does a nice job.

I did not have the problems that some of the other reviewers who gave this product only one star had. Thats because I couldnt load it on my Windows 8 computer. This is because I kept getting an error message when I entered the code. There was nobody to call. No easy to send an email. I checked the forum where I found a post from their expert or whatever he was called that suggested getting a magnifying glass if an error message was received saying that the code was incorrect. Selling a product with a bug is understandable. Insulting customers is not. I will not purchase another Roxio product.

After wrestling with Audacity and Cakewalk Pyro Audio Creator LE CD creation software, I decided to try this Roxio product for a straightforward software suite for conversion of LPs to digital format. Like my experience with Roxio products in the past, they hit the target spot on! I simply loaded the software into my HP laptop running Windows 8.1, configured a USB port for input from the supplied Roxio Audio Capture Box, connected the RCA cables from my Stanton T.92 Turntable fitted with a Stanton 500.V3 Cartridge (switching the output of the Turntable from Phono to Line), and away I went. I chose to import the tracks from the LP in WAV format for easier editing and enhancement of the tracks using the Sound Editor. The uncompressed WAV format gives richer sound quality as opposed to the compressed MP3 format. You can always rip the WAV files to MP3 later to conserve disc space. I preferred to export these conversion projects to a stand alone 3 terabyte capacity Seagate external hard drive so file size is a non-issue. This Roxio product includes sufficent onboard Help to speed your learning process in the initial stages. The Clean, Enhance, and Equalizer modules are straightfoward and versatile. The mini-jack Line Out on the Roxio Audio Capture Box is a convenient way to monitor the recording process via headphones or an external preamp/amp arrangement as well. Thats a lot of recording punch for a very modest price. Toss Audacity, install this, and save yourself a ton of time!

simple , easy to use!

Received Easy LP to MP3 quickly. It worked great.

I hand out compliments on stuff I like and on stuff that actually works because I know from experience how frustrating it is to make a purchase and discover that it was garbage. Well ladies and gentleman, let me say that if you are looking for a device to transfer your LPs and cassettes to digital MP3s, than... LOOK NO FURTHER!!! I have had the ones that are highly rated and turn out to be GARBAGE!!! Not to worry, this is a great product that actually works and actually cuts on the hissing sound and actually clears up the noise. A great buy. A must have for anyone interested in converting Lps and cassettes.

In general the program is easy to use and does what it promises. The one major problem is the program will crash after several hour of converting tape to the program. All the data from the tape is lost and the entire project and the program has to be restarted.

Easy to learn how to use, this product has provided my husband with many hours of enjoyment converting his closet of albums to MP3

Not so easy. Directions are not very clear and it takes a very long time for each album to copy to a CD.
