Question:
Can I record from the turntable and from external audio sources simultaneously?
Answer:
No. The LP 2 CD can only record from the turntable
or
from audio sources connected
to the Line In inputs, but not both simultaneously. This is to prevent unwanted mixing
of audio signals. The Phono / Line switch selects which source will be routed to the
internal recorder.

Can I burn my vinyl records directly to CD?
Answer:
You will need to record your music to the unit’s Internal Flash Player before you can
burn it to a CD. This approach allows you to correct any mistakes and perfect your
track transitions before committing your recording to a CD. It also as ensures that the
spinning of the CD drive does not introduce mechanical noise into your recordings.
