[Dixielandjazz] more turntable direct to computer hardware stuff

[David Richoux]

Hi again all,

One of the engineers at KFJC really likes this product - use it with  
your own turntable or other analog and digital sources... I don't  
know the price but I think it may be around $100 US. You can find a  
local dealer at http://www.artproaudio.com

> The USB Phono Plus, (Formerly named the “USB Micro•PRE”) acts as an  
> interface between your computer and a wide variety of analog and  
> digital sources. The analog inputs are switchable between Phono and  
> Line level signals and a low cut filter removes rumble and wind  
> noise while leaving the audio pristine. The front gain trim control  
> and signal/clip LED allow you to optimize the A/D for a wide range

> the optical output on the rear panel can monitor audio output from

> highly accurate and precisely conforms to the RIAA standard. The  
> Line Output jacks are always connected to the input preamps signal
