To transfer vinyl to your PC You will need to install
a digital audio editor. Such software is widely
available as a free download (such as Audacity)
from the internet. This is a simple interface which
allows monitoring of volume and balance whilst
transferring your audio to your PC hard drive.
Audio editing software includes a level meter
which indicates the output level achieved when
playing a piece of vinyl. You should adjust the
output as necessary via the ‘Level’ control located
on the front panel. Always take special note of
record levels to ensure optimum recording quality.
