Easy to use Jul 27, 2008 Bought this as a present for my father, who wanted to transfer cassettes to his computer, and it has since provided him with hours of fun. The included Final Vinyl software worked very well too - better than Audacity.
Works As Advertised Jul 21, 2008 This device makes it very convenient to switch between a Mac's internal speaker's to an outside sound system. Rather than plugging and unplugging an audio-out connector, one simply selects the choice in the System Preferences menu. The audio-out connector on my Mac had a failure due to the numerous making and breaking of connections of the plug. The Apple Store Genius called to my attention this product which solved the problem affordably and was actually what I wanted in the first place.
Does what it says it does and does it easily. I'd buy it again Jul 12, 2008 Terrific product -- I use it to connect a cassette player to my iMac computer. I play the cassette and (after setting up in the Sound window of System Preferences) capture the incoming sound using Final Vinyl. I then tweak the piece with Audacity and save it in the format preferred (often merely MP3 since these are generally spoken word tapes).
Simple and to the point for translating cassettes to digital.
Simple, easy, and quite useful. Jul 08, 2008 Honestly, for simple recording/monitoring tasks, this interface works well. I would recommend it to any homebound composer, hobbyist, or anyone who just needs the extra ports on their Mac. Final Vinyl is a pretty neat little program too. Works about like Pyro, but better for LP copying. All in all, it's definitely worth the price.
What's that whooshing air sound? May 29, 2008 I bought one of these and tested it out compared to the audio-in jack on my PowerMac.
The audio-in gets a lot cleaner results. With the iMic you hear a whooshing air sound coming through with the music, not so with the audio-in jack.
SO if you don't have audio-in on your laptop like with my iBook then it's ok but definitely inferior audio capture quality compared to a line input.
