Now you can easily convert all of your favorite records to modern MP3 digital audio tracks with Denon’s DP-200USB fully automatic turntable. Equipped with an internal MP3 encoder, along with a front panel USB port, the DP-200USB lets you play your favorite LPs and create MP3 tracks easily and automatically. The included PC software features Audio Waveform Recognition, which checks the first 15 seconds of each track and searches the extensive Gracenote Internet music tracks database to capture the track’s meta-deta (artist, title, etc.). The software also features Auto Track Divide, which notes silent breaks between tracks and automatically inserts a new track tag for each track (you also have the option of doing this manually). The front panel USB port allows direct connection to a PC, as well as connection to a USB drive or an external hard disk drive. In addition to the USB connection, the DP-200USB features conventional stereo outputs, which can be configured with or without RIAA equalization, for full compatibility with the widest range of audio components.

Copying to thumb drive is easy & portable. Tone arm sticks in tracks sometimes and there are no adjustment settings to compensate. Cannot use PRO cartridges.

Comments about Denon DP-200USB Fully Automatic Turntable with MP3 Encoder:

I did quite a bit searching and waiting to find a decent turntable that I could both connect to my stereo system for LP playing, as well connect to my computer for digitizing of those same LP's. Having owned and used a traditional Denon turntable for 20yrs, I thought I'd stick with a brand that I knew and could trust. My first impressions of this turnable have been mostly favorable....it works with well/sounds good playing LP's and the digitizing is quite easy using a UBS drive and the provided software. Once you've recorded your music onto the USB drive, the "autosplitter" function breaks up your music into tracks. With a bit of renaming, the end result is good for both listening on an MP3 player or burning an audio CD. Things that are really annoying/dumb: 1)the recording function doesn't stop when the LP has ended and the turntable has turned itself off..so unless you're standing by the turntable you end up with a lot of dead air recornded. 2)the turntable belt drive is underpowered....lightly trying cleaning your LP with a Discwasher brush will bring the turntable to a stop. And 3)there is no tonearm up/down lever...so you must manually lift and place the tonearm onto the LP if you want to skip a track. 4) the tonearm feels very light and skips easily with slight scratch on LP or hard step to your floor. Denon should have put about $10-15 more into the turntable design to add basic features that anyone who grew up playing LP's would expect. Overall, however, I like the unit.

Although the software is supposed to cancel snaps and crackles it only does so to a limited capability. Otherwise it is easy to use and works well.
