Summary: Great, simple to use product
Comment: Purchased this through ACS Media on Amazon.co.uk Marketplace and item arrived swiftly and in perfect condition.

I'm not that technically competent so a brief teething trouble (I had to disconnect my webcam to allow the turntable to be heard) was swiftly resolved with a quick call to the Ion tech helpdesk (although they're only open during office hours) who were excellent.

The software takes less than 30 seconds to install and is extremely simple to use. I've not had the need to try the advanced software as yet, but played back through iTunes it sounds great to me.

There are also leads to attach the turntable to your stereo so can use as a separate also for playing old vinyl records via an existing sound system.

If you want an easy to use and flexible way to listen to your old vinyl and convert to iTunes, this piece of kit is just the ticket. Dust off those old vinyl treats and enjoy!

Summary: Very, very, very easy
Comment: This arrived I unpacked it, read the instructions (Yes every one of them worth the short time it took),I loaded the CD, installed the software, plugged in the usb, took the cover off the needle and there you go burnt my first 12" disc to the hard drive. So easy, yes there was more work to be done on cleaning up the track but found that quite easy once I had played with the second set of software supplied. Maybe not for a budding DJ but for a normal person wanting to save time and money finding & buying digital replacements of their record collection then this is worth it. Just 2 points to consider you may not find music bought when a teen stands the test of a forty something ear's and If your using a laptop depending on your speeakers the music at first sounds tinny but burn to MP3 player and play through your music system sounds a lot better.

Summary: It's a basic solution, but good nevertheless
Comment: I received the TTUSB05 as a present, and very grateful I was to receive it. Like many others I have an extensive vinyl collection that I would like to convert to mp3. In my case I will store them on a Network-Attached-Storage device which I use for photos and music.

So, turntable unpacked, CD popped into laptop, software installed. I connected the turntable, ran the EZ software that comes with the unit and started to record my first LP (don't laugh, but it was Leonard Cohen's Greatest Hits).

An extremely easy process. I had no problems committing Bird on a Wire, Sisters of Mercy, etc. to mp3

Would I recommend this unit, well maybe ...

It has a few shortcomings that I guess would be addressed in more expensive units. The playing arm is plastic and the counter-weight cannot be adjusted. This meant that a couple of my older LPs skipped during playback. The quality of the cartridge/stylus unit is not what it could be.

It has left me wondering whether or not I could take the innards out of the unit and install them in my antique Pioneer PL12D turntable (all the rage in the 1970's!).

As to software supplied it is very intuitive to use and gave me no problems. It is centred upon sending everything to the iTunes folder, which might be a problem for some.

One thing that I did encounter was that my PC suddenly went quiet. This was because the software/turntable using a new speaker driver that only works for files streaming from the turntable. I had to reset the existing speaker driver as default before I could play the mp3s that I have created.
