This board will serve you to make copies just on your computer. The build quality is quite average, but just under 90 you can not expect the big luxury, a brushed aluminum casing black and gold resting on dark purple silk shoes. The software EZ Vinyl / Tape Converter (for Windows) or EZ Audio Converter (Mac) described in other reviews is now provided with the device. I would do a small complaint in the extremely simple interface, it is not possible to adjust the signal input volume after recording started. Gain fader is only usable during stage 2. The output volume can then be adjusted using the potentiometer on the back cover of the plate. What is less convenient, but it's better than nothing. A rotary potentiometer forward façade would have been much better ... I tried to record the sound on the computer from another drive connected to the RCA jacks on the back of the ION platinum, but this is apparently not planned. I can not listen when I make copies of K7 K7. There is no headphone jack and my RCA outputs not seem to work any signal. If you want to monitor the success of your copies, you will need to plug the USB plug to your computer. The processor reports its pleasure to work for you by a soft purr very present. The "windows" revealing scrolling tapes are too dark even with a fairly close lamp. I use a flashlight by putting it close to see. In conclusion, this is a very simple to use platinum, which will help you out if you run out of tape deck. Too bad that the interface is so rustic.
