Digitize your favorite cuts, or play them live
The Audio-Technica LP-120XUSB turntable is made for sharing your favorite vinyl. You can connect its USB output to your Mac® or PC to digitize your albums, so they can travel with you in your smartphone. (Free 3rd-party Audacity software recommended.)
If you like to DJ, the 'table features a high-torque direct-drive motor that gets any record — 33-1/3, 45, or 78 rpm — up to speed in a hurry. Adjustable pitch control lets you change the platter speed ±8% or ±16% for easier beat-match mixing, and a pop-up light on the stylus helps you find your groove in a darkened club or living room. The included detachable dust cover helps keep your 'table clean when you're not using it.

Set-up was quick and easy, played some of my 45's and the supplied cartridge sounded fairly good but I plan to upgrade later to a better one.

Q
Does automatic mean that the arm will return on its own?
A
No it does not retrieve the arm on its own. You have to be on alert as vinyl side ends. But this tt is amazing! For the price it's a great deck!
