Question:

Trouble recording records

by  |  earlier

Hi. I bought the Hama Stereo Phono Preamplifier product yesterday. The guy at Media Markt told me that was all I needed to record my records.

I am having trouble getting it to work and hoped you could help me. I connected my record player to the device (instead of my stereo) and the device to my computer (via USB). I also downloaded software from www.magix.de although it was only a test version.

I guess I have two problems:

1. When I plug the USB into my computer, the computer (for some reason) shuts off the external speakers. What do I need to change on my computer so that it knows the USB is Music input rather than output, etc.?

2. The Magix software does not notice any input and neither does MediaPlayer. What recording software do I need to create .mp3 files from my records? Ideally, I would have one file per song; but I am not sure how the software will know the song changed.

I would really appreciate your help with these problems.
Best regards from Germany,

don
