Re: Recording problem
yes its the same turntable
Re: Recording problem
It looks as though the problem is with the USB electronics in the turntable.
If that works OK, you know the problem is with the USB in the turntable.

Unplug the USB connection and try connecting direct from the RCA sockets on the turntable to the line-in on the Mac, as Bill and Koz suggested, with the cable shown in Koz's link. The EQ switch on the turntable should be set to Line, not Phono.kozikowski wrote:http://kozco.com/tech/audacity/pix/MiniStereoToRCA.jpg

Re: Recording problem
Note that I was assuming the turntable has a permanently-attached RCA cable for connecting to a stereo, thus the need for an adapter with female RCA sockets. If the turntable has RCA sockets on the back for connecting a standard RCA cable, then you need a cable as illustrated in Koz's picture.billw58 wrote:That turntable includes a phono pre-amp, so with the correct adapter - dual-female-RCA to stereo mini-plug - you can plug the RCA outputs of the turntable into the line input on the Mac and record that way.
