DriverGenius AudioXfer Series | USB Audio Capture Card Device | Convert Analog Cassette Audio to Digital MP3 with 3.5mm/RCA Inputs | Compatible with PC, Mac & Linux (AV202-B, 1-Pack)

I just received this last night and my initial use attempt could not have been easier. I have a fairly large collection of vinyl LPs and singles and I'm finally getting to work with them again after many years. I'm using vintage gear I've kept over the years (Technics SL-D1 turntable, Sony TA-F40 integrated amp). I have a number of vinyl albums that are out-of-print, hard to find or not available on streaming services. I wanted to use the gear I had to rip the music from the vinyl to digital files. I decided to give this Driver Genius device a go, based on the positive reviews. I have a MacBook, but I really hoped it would work with my preferred Kubuntu-based Linux docked laptop system. I was not disappointed. I used the "Tape Monitor" output on the Sony amp as the source. The Technics turntable connects to the Sony's photo pre-amp input. I connected two RCA male plugs from the amp to the female RCA plugs on the Driver Genius device, and the USB connector into a USB port on the Linux laptop system. Audacity, the open source recording software, detected the device as a "USB PnP Audio Device. " I queued up an LP on the turntable, lowered the stylus, hit the record button on Audacity and the software immediately registered a waveform as the recording was made. Users can choose to save completed recordings to WAV or MP3 files (I chose WAV so they can be converted to FLAC). I only created a few files with this, but the sound of the resulting music is really great. Audacity provides a number of tools for improving and fixing your files. That's it. This is about as simple and easy as it gets from a user perspective, and this little device does everything I expected without a burp.

My Tascam US-144MKII got "bricked" by Tascam due to the latest Mac upgrades, so I can't use it any more. So I need to get my old audio cassettes into digital form. I already own a Sony Walkman Professional with a good line signal. I read a bunch of reviews and it seems people rate this item lower because they're depending on free software with which to record like Audacity, which isn't Catalina compatible. But I don't use Audacity. I've been using SoundStudio for years. I also use GarageBand, so I had backup. I plugged this device into my iMac's USB (it's old enough that it has USB2.0 ports), the other end into the Walkman, pressed "record" and the line level is working perfectly. True plug and play. No drivers to install. It's like having a new audio in. And this thing is cheap! Great value!!

I've recommended these to friends for streaming (before a lot of the DJ software made it easy to capture their audio directly) and they work very well to quickly add an audio capture device on Windows, Mac, or Linux. They are supported out of the box without driver installation, even on Linux, where it shows up as an ALSA device that "just works". The sound quality is fine, not audiophile, but absolutely acceptable for streaming. I wouldn't use one of these if I was, for example, archiving vinyl or something, but for general audio capture, it works well. The problem is that I have had two of them fail for no reason in the past two years. It's a twenty dollar USB device, so I can't really complain that much. But by way of comparison, I also have a Griffin iMic, which cost thirty three dollars ten years ago, that still works. It's a comparable product - albeit, it uses 3.5mm jacks exclusively - but apparently the build quality is that much better. It's been bounced around multiple houses, tossed from box to box and place to place, and it still functions as well as the day I bought it. But two of these VTOP USB audio interfaces have died on me in two years.

This is a great inexpensive audio capture device. We had some old audio cassettes that we wanted to preserve in digital format. Having looked into hiring out this service we thought we would try to do it ourselves. I would like to point out that it suggests that you disable any anti-virus software on your computer in order to install the software included on the disk....just remember to turn your anti-virus software back on! Once we connected the RCA cables to our cassette player the software pretty much did the work for us. We were surprised how easy the process was and the audio quality was pretty good coming from a 30 year old cassette tape. I am not a techie type person and was hesitant to try this myself but was surprised at how simple the process was and the results were good. For less than $20 we were able to preserve the voice of a late family member.

It's a bad sign when the first product you buy from a company doesn't work correctly out of the box. The unit I received would only capture on the Right channel. The left channel was dead. But the content on the right channel was captured and output to both Right and Left channels. It looks like it's working, but it isn't. I sent it back as defective the next day. I'm really glad Amazon has these return policies because a lot of junk like this will end up in a bin where it belongs instead of eating a hole in your wallet. UPDATE: After some further testing I've discovered that this capture device doesn't work as expected with Windows 11 or Windows 10. I was able to get independent Right and Left channels to work with Audacity on Linux. That seems to work OK. It may also work fine on a Mac.

This thing, I mean wow! This thing… it uh yea it’s, well the way it works is… ummm idk why I bought this.

Es increíble pasar los cassettes a mp3. Se consigue una calidad de sonido mejor que la de la cinta. Cierto es,que lo grabo desde un equipo por módulos, y dependiendo el sonido de la grabación ( cinta),ecualizo. También parto de cintas muy cuidadas. Nota: tuve que borrar unos programas del ordenador y descargar unos nuevos para poder ejecutar el cd. Esa información la encontráis en youtube, es sencillo. Merece la pena
