If your records have snap, pops and hiss this will show up on your mp3 file. You can use a another program to remove the snaps, pops and hisses.

Sorry have not really used it for that purpose. As a basic turntable it is quite functional.

When you convert to MP3 there is always sound quality issues. The turntable is a low end but good value turntable.

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.

I've converted a few selections from my records over to mp3's, and overall they're pretty good, but really the quality depends on what settings you input into the software that comes with the turntable. It's really easy to use, but if you choose to eliminate the surface noise (such as the pops and clicks), the sound can be deadened somewhat, so I just choose to do a straight, no-frills conversion most of the time. However, the quality/cleanliness of the record also has a part to play, a good clean record produces a good, clean sound.

This player doesn't support shuffle and iTunes sync you have to covert iTunes to mp3. With Itunes you rent your music and it is protected. I believe that it will only work with non-protected music files, hence the MP3. I would suggest using a free iTunes to MP3 converter like Koyote or Fre:ac. This will solve your problem.

I use CDR -R which have worked. It burns in wma format only. Wont play MP3. Play your LP push the button and it records the LP.. No seperation of tracks though. If you want seperate tranks you have to push button after song is played from LP and push again when next song starts. Has worked great for me. Does not clean up the snaps and pops however I enjoy that part. Music on CDs you buy are too clean and the music does not sound the same. If you want crystal clean you have to run CD thru a seperate progam on your computer. I am from the old school and like the results.

Contact Pyle at support@pyleaudio.com. I had a problem converting my music from iTunes to MP3 and they were very helpful.

Can't answer all of the Qs, but I current use it for the Movie and TV Show portion of my iTunes library and it works very well indeed.

I run Audacity on my older MacBook with Snow Leopard & export the files into iTunes, so iOS 7 is probably irrelevant. I can sync any tunes I burned to my iPhone thru iTunes. The turntable connects via USB; you should make sure Audacity is compatible with Mavericks. Here's the thing with this or any turntable converter - you are copying analog audio to digital files in real time, which means if you have 300 hours of music on vinyl (like me) it will take 300 hours to copy them all. (If you're looking to convert cassette tapes you may be able to find solutions that can transfer at higher speeds.) Then you have to break up the files into individual songs, which Audacity doesn't do on its own, although there is a way to do it with the software (I'm learning this step now). It's very time consuming. There may be other programs that can recognize breaks between songs, but the fact is there's still noise between songs on your albums (needle chatter, old scratches, etc.). I'm happy with this turntable and the software; for about 100 bucks I'll be able to transfer a bunch of vinyl that I own plus a bunch more that a relative had to let go so I'm trying to give them their music back. But make no mistake, it's a bare-bones solution. If you want to press a button and have your vinyl broken into individual songs, cleaned up of analog noise and catalogued you'll have to spend a LOT more money - if the solution even exists.

NO! Is a matter of fact it froze up my player for a couple of minutes and I had to reset it to factory settings just to get it back to normal. I was trying to listen to a book recorded on MP3 format. Actually, it's a picky machine and also it's a discontinued unit so good luck if it messes up on you.

Yes. Beware though. I have found that mp3s that are recorded at a higher than average (above 128k) tend to cause this player to skip through the songs about every 3ish seconds.

Hello, yes it does, although sadly most of my music files are in the mp3 format, the ones I have in FLAC worked like a charm syncing with winamp...

Yes. Records all radio to .MP3. Make sure to update the firmware. 1.0 has menu/timed recording schedule bugs.

yea... maybe we should put up an award for answering our question... how about we both chip in 100 bucks. I bet you by tomorrow morning we'll have dozen new answers!I want this thing badly, but if I can't listen to it NORMALLY using my stereo... then I'm not going to buy it. While I want to rip my LPs into MP3s, I also want to listen to them FROM the turntable.

Sorry Wayne, I can't asnwer that question as I don't even know what mp3 really is. I can say that it is very easy to record LP's to CD's. That is the reason I brought this machine. I have about 1,500 to transfer to CD.

Steve, the recording quality was very bad and we ended up returning the unit. My older sister has an immense album collection we want to convert but we are still looking for a good quality converter and have yet to find one. This has been some years now since we started looking. good luckmc

No. Its as easy as copying/moving and pasting from your music folder to your hifiman player folder. Just as you'd do if the player was USB storage.
