Transferring your favourite tunes to your computer 

 

The  software  included  allows  quick  and  easy  transfer  of  music  to  your  computer. 
However, if you have problems downloading the software, you can also download it by 
visiting 

http://audacity.sourceforge.net/download/

  and  selecting  your  particular 

operating system. 

 
 

Before Starting the Software 

 

Make sure that your USB turntable is plugged into the computer with the supplied USB cable, 

and both the computer and the turntable are plugged in and on.     

 

For your first recording, we recommend that you test your settings on a short section (a 

minute or less) of recorded audio so you can become familiar with the process before 

recording a full LP.   

To Install Software (PC) 

 

Plug your turntable into an AC power outlet and use the included USB cable to connect the 

USB

 port on your turntable to the USB port on your computer.   

Turn your computer on if it is not on already.    Allow it to boot fully.   

Turn on the turntable by pressing the 

power button

Your computer might display a message saying that it has detected a new device, and that 

it is available to use.    Depending on your system, this message may or may not appear.   

This is normal.   

Insert the 

CD

 that came with your USB turntable into your computer’s CD drive.   

A window will pop up automatically.    Click on the 

[INSTALL]

 icon next to “Audacity”.
