Music Digitizer CD Recorder for Music Audio Capture Device Cassette MP3 Recorder Converter with 3.5mm & RCA Line Input

" To begin with, the setup and recording process were both simple. The audio capture recorder appears to be a fantastic idea on paper. The idea of digitally recording audio without using a computer appeals to me. I like the remote control and the fact that the converted audio can be saved to an SD card in mp3 format. Despite my best efforts, I was unable to obtain a clear recording free of buzzing and static. The message - The signal to noise ratio (SNR) is far too low. I tried recording at normal volume levels and gradually increasing the volume to see if this would improve the sound quality, but nothing worked. Perhaps a more appropriate analogy would be: Its performance would be improved if it had a digital converter, but I don't believe it is ready for prime time as it is.

This box was simple and quick to use, and I can now play CDs again by simply plugging the memory stick into my car. I needed something simple and quick, and the only issue I had with an Australian CD was that it wasn't available in the United States. The format was not accepted.

I found a USB AC power supply and connected it to my computer. I tried recording from my turntable to a PNY 32GB USB stick, but the results were terrible - There was a lot of skipping where there was none on the record, and I read the instructions, which stated that some devices were incompatible with the interface. So I tried the same record on an SD card (AUMAVOZ micro SD 32 gig with SD card adapter) and it worked perfectly! The sound quality is excellent. The remote control that came with the package was also excellent. I'm going to use the interface to dub a bunch of 78s I've been collecting. I need the interface box because my audio equipment is in a different room than my computer. Only four stars because of the initial difficulty in locating recording media that worked.

I looked all over the internet for a way to convert all of my cassette tapes to digital MP3 files, but all I could find were cheap cassette player-to-digital MP3 converters. The majority of converters required a computer and conversion software to operate. I didn't want to take up any more of my computer's or time's resources with these. I decided to try out the HopCentury digitizer. It's simple to use: connect the output line or lines from your cassette, CD, or record player to the digitizer, insert a USB flash drive, start the player, and press the converter's button. That's it; if you're recording for an extended period of time, walk away. I stop the recording by pressing the button on the box once more, and my thumb drive is now ready to transfer the audio file to my computer or MP3 player for playback. I'm not sure what a "duo-channel" means. I get full stereo in my new MP3 files with left and right channels, despite the "mono" output. Instead of using a cheap converter player, I can use my own high-quality player with this small converter box. If you want to digitize a large number of hours of old cassette recordings, records, and/or CDs, this is a highly recommended method. br>NOTE: THIS PAGE HAS BEEN UPDATED. I noticed that when my record turntable is connected to the digitizer, it makes an electromagnetic buzzing noise; I unplugged the turntable's peripheral speaker, and the buzz has gone away. My cassette deck, on the other hand, is in perfect working order.

I must say, for $27, this item is fantastic. 00, I had to experiment with various audio input sources for quite some time. You can make each song into an individual MP3 file by pressing the start button twice, and when there is a gap in the noise between songs, it will start a new file; however, I discovered that this procedure does not always work, because if there is a slow part or a gap in the music in the middle of a song, it will start a new file, and you will get an annoying rapid double note of hick up. I found it best to let the box not create a new file for as long as possible; depending on your source, you can make tens or even hundreds of songs on a single file. I found the cheapest source of audio input to be an amazon echo, tell Alexa to play rock 60s shuffle and hit the green button and walk away, you can record on thumb drive and listen with headphones or ear buds at the same time. Yes, it records in stereo, and when I plugged that thumb drive into my wife's factory car radio, she reported hearing noises she had never heard before. When not in use, unplug your recording device; I left mine plugged in with the power light on for two months and it burned out.

When I first read the negative reviews, I was hesitant, but once I received the cassette, I followed their instructions about not using a specific brand of pendrive and recording with the source volume set to maximum. I am extremely pleased with the results; the recordings are flawless, and the device performs as expected; I highly recommend this product.

It's almost the modern equivalent of a cassette recorder with a low level input. There is no way to adjust the record level or monitor it without using headphones, but adjustments can be made after using AUDACITY. I'm using it to record church services straight from the PA system, and the 32GB SD card I installed will hold 12 YEARS of Sunday services! It's easy to use and understand - It is also effective.
