LP 2 CD is a professional tool for high-quality conversion of vinyl recordings to CD, WAV, or MP3, with or without a computer. DJs can then use digital files in any CD player, iPod, hard-disk player, or other digital format for production and performance. LP 2 CD is a sophisticated all-in-one system with internal flash memory, so no computer is required to make pristine digital recordings from vinyl or any other analog source using the RCA line inputs. You can make as many copies of an album as you like, make custom mix CDs, or export your music via USB. LP 2 CD gives you the absolute finest quality of digitization through non-simultaneous conversion and burning processes. By burning CDs after vinyl is recorded to the internal flash memory, LP 2 CD eliminates the problem of CD-recorder vibrations interfering with the turntable needle. LP 2 CD also employs mastering technology from Alesis, including high-resolution A-D converters for incredibly low distortion and clock jitter. This attention to quality results in dramatically better sound quality than consumer-grade CD converters. Used in conjunction with its built-in USB audio interface, LP 2 CD includes a powerful software suite consisting of EZ Vinyl Converter 2 (PC), EZ Audio Converter (Mac), and Audacity (Mac and PC) to provide editing and file-management capabilities. Whether you want to transition from vinyl to CD or hard disk for DJ performance or you just want the flexibility and portability that only digital files can offer, LP 2 CD is an uncompromisingly high-quality transition tool.
