Analog to Digital? Is this a good choice? Can I use this cable to go from an old vinyl turntable analog into my mic jack on my PC?

I realize this is an ancient question. You'll need to plug your turntable into an appropriate preamp, then this would work as you describe.

If you have a Digital Audio output, you should be able to convert it to analog. One note, the picture shown is deceptive. There is only one little block not two. They are showing both a front and back view.

No. You can't convert analog o digital. This cable (which I have) will take your digital HDMI output and sent it to an analog input on a TV/monitor. You can choose the VGA interface instead. I have an HDMI interface on my laptop and I use this cable to hook to a projector's VGA interface. I have also used it to out put to a TV with RCA inputs. There may be a cable that's wired to do what you want but not this one.

I say this is a high quality Digital-to-Analog Converter in general. So unleas your computer has an extremely good sound card, this amp will work amazingly with medium to extreme quality headphones

It may not be optimal, but you could craft a combo of converter plugs and put it in the computer's mic or input jack. I've done something similar before, and if you aren't looking for perfect audiophile quality it should be fine.

Hi Sally I connect my turntable to my stereo input and stereo goes to a sound jack in my computer. I think this is better than using the Alesis adptor.I tried one and sent it back.Try using your stereo and let me know, Doug in Carlsbad Ca.

If your turntable has 2 RCA audio out cables, then you could plug it in to an AUX input. I've done this with many old turntables and amps and it sounded great.

My vinyl to pc capture was pre hdmi. I used rca to pc audio input. Software must have vinyl clean up feature.outcome is not high quality, but provided a clean retro sound on cd for a friend who's father recorded the album for her. sorry, HDMI audio in from rca...haven't tried. Maybe Audicity could help

If you don't have Optical Out on your PC, you cant connect the Mixer to the using Analog out, only through USB. Although it did have mini PL cable to connect MIC and Sound to (i don't know how it's called) mini PL with 4 wires, it didn't had the same cable to connect it to the Mixer.So basically another "Astro Console Cable" (even with out the mute Mic button) would be nice, if you don't have Optical Out.

I have never heard of anyone doing that. I use four patch cables to two aux sends and two aux returns on my Mackie Onyx 1640i. This uses up two of my 6 aux channels but it has a nice fat stereo effect. I'm sure it was not designed to plug a microphone into the analog in or out jacks.

Analog for sure. The DAC does the conversion to analog. If you go digital you defeat the purpose of the DAC.

Analog to analog will work fine. You would need a converter to go from digital to analog.

What are you trying to accomplished? Convert analog to digital, or digital to analog. In any case that cable will not work... because none of the ends have a conversion to change pix from analog to digital or vice verse.

No this mic isn't compatible unless you have additional hardware, like an interface that converts analog to digital. Yes you want one one with a USB connection. For use with Garage Band or similar software.

No you would not be able to use the digital inputs. Turntables need to use the phono stage as it amplifies the signal from the cartridge and applies the RIAA equalization curve. There will be volume differences since each phono cartridge has different outputs levels. I hear very little volume drop but I have a higher output cartridge on my turntable. Make sure you using the proper phono cartridge settings ie (MM) for Moving Magnet or (MC) Moving Coil, that will also make a difference in volume.

As others have said - if your PC has a digital audio input (either coax or optical), then this device will convert your L/R audio signal into a digital signal for the PC to process. However, your phonograph doesn't have true L/R audio outputs (even though they look the same). The signal levels on your phonograph are very low and must be sent through an appropriate pre-amplifier. If your "analogue music centre" has tape-monitor (or REC) outputs for L/R audio, you could connect this device to that output and digitize the signal. The only part of the system you'd need at that point is an audio card for your PC with a toslink (optical) or digital coax input.

This is not the right cable - it is designed to convert a traditional turntable phono connection to USB - you are looking for something the does the opposite. I did a quick search and didn
