Two years ago I bought an analog to digital converter made by a company called Digital River. The product is called Dazzle DVC 90, and it came with Roxie Creator 9.
It is supposed to enable you to use YOUR OWN turntable to make analog to digital conversions. Likewise, it will allow you to use your VCR to convert video tapes to DVD disk, which is why I originally bought it.
I'm sorry that I can't give you a review of the product......it got shoved in a drawer awaiting leisure time that has yet to arrive.

So what if I want to have high quality reproductions from my old
vinyl collection? Do you really think a $90 Chinese-made turntable
and cartridge/stylus(and its electronics) is going to faithfully
reproduce those sounds?
Find me a system that will incorporate my $800(1970's prices) B&O
Beogram 4002 turntable with tangental tracking tonearm. There's
probably some Thorens tonearm and Ortofon moving coil cartridge folks
out there wondering the same thing...... Of course, if the speakers
and amplifier are crap, you likely won't hear the difference
anyway. Remember, it all starts with the source material.
DM&FS, who doesn't mind the ticks and pops, and had a Nakamichi 700
tape deck to get rid of the hiss and loss of hghs....
