Can someone comment on the Software Suite? Does it work well? Can it save to MP3's? Does if have the ability to reduce clicks and pops?

The software suite works well, if you are willing to learn how to use it. It does provide all of these functions. It is professional recording software and is available free of charge. In fact, if you know how to set things up your turntable doesn't need the USB function. I've used the same software to convert my cassettes by connecting my TEAC cassette deck to my computer's line in. The software is called Audacity.

Yes, this software is a very well respected Professional quality for production and editing sound. It works with WAV and MP3 formats (WAV is the best for editing). Just be sure that you purchase the artists original work before you use it to create your work! The software can be very intimidating to people who are not sound engineers, or post production editors. But the tutorial is very good and what it sounds like you want to do is very easy with this software.

Actually on Windows, I convert my CD's to mp3 using the included Microsoft Media Player. Under the "rip music" tab in the preference you can select the format as "mp3" and dial up the "Audio Quality" to as much as 320 bps. Once set in preferences it runs automatically every time I stick in a CD. You don't need to add software to do this. For me the sound quality seem great ... but do note I am no longer a young person and my hearing is not what it used to be ... so this particular part of my opinion should be taken with that in mind.

I was unable to install the software on vista, windows 7, or XP. I wound up buying TotalMedia6; it works very well, but is an additional cost. You can get a trial version for free, but is only good for a few weeks.

I'm using it with my iPod Nano. One click toggles stop/go. Two clicks moves to beginning of next track. Three clicks moves to beginning of current track.

Works fine for me, I use no sound card. Let me say this though: I use FL Studio, which uses that special audio driver, and it doesn't seem to like it when I do live recording via the FL sound driver. I have to go into my Audio options, disable my audio, and then it will function for recording live sounds (just a pain really, but still works). Other than that, I have no complaints running it through my 20$ logictech speakers.

I think the software included only works with ITunes. You'd have to use Audacity or another software.

I didn't use the software that came with it. I downloaded and use the free program Audacity, which is an excellent program for working with audio files and which works with all versions of Windows. Buy this tape deck because you want USB connectivity, not because of the software that comes with it.

I am currently in the process of recording a collection of songs with this software. I believe that if you purchase Cubase Elements 7, you can export a finished song (as an MP3 file) as many times as you want. I hope this helps!

I think its just a one computer download, but either way it isn't worth it. The recording is sluggish, it slows down your computer, and is an overall bad software.

yes that's what I use. I'll be honest it took me almost a month to figure out. but once I did I love the software. Don't expect it to cut the tracks in the right spot. I always erase their tracks and put them back in the right spot. I do that by finding track listings on wiki, iTunes, amazon, or a site called discogs and write down the track times. It takes a little work. but I haven't found a software yet that cuts the tracks right automatically granted Ive only tried a few. So if you go for it be patient. I don't ever tinker with any of the effects so not sure how good they are. Like echo and crap like that. I just go for a good clean transfer. It does work good for that. In my opion. I did however buy an old turntable for just listening. One with pitch control and the adjustable counterweight and all that kind of fancy stuff. How bout that for an answer. Peace. Hit me up if you got mo questions. I don't mind talkin about records and record players.

i don't know if it runs on xp/2. i'm running 8 and it works fine. as far as the music goes. you can add different tracks, one of them can be music and another one can be voice over and you can edit each track individually.

Hey, so I really like finale, it is a really great software. At first it was a little hard getting use to but it is getting easier now, I only really write for the piano so I haven't experimented the other settings, but I believe that it can write songs for guitar, violin, flute. And others, I'm not 100 percent, because I don't use those settings, but it is a great software.

It comes loaded with Audacity which has proven very dependable to me. It up loads to ITunes easily. as for as other software...? Other media players? Not exactly sure if I completely get your question. I have had no trouble with this unit and think its the greatest for the price.

Dear Valery: With this Sony Movie Studio Platinum Suite 12 software, you have many choices of audio editing, for example you can extract the audio from a video, you can change the volume of a song in MP3, you can make conversions of audio from one format to another, mix, trim, add, add silence between songs, add fade at the beginning and at the end of a song, you can add special effects, among other things but I'm commenting only a few options that I've used, but still have not used most of the options that the software has naturally required patience and time to take advantage of the program, as it also has an excellent tutorial that will indicating you step by step how to do, it is really very well recommend it since I've had other editors and this is the best and all off the foregoing their specialty is the edition of video clips.
