NAMM 2010: Alesis launch the PhonoLink USB Interface
Posted on 15 Jan 2010 15:22 to category : Instruments News
Alesis, a leading manufacturer of professional audio equipment and studio electronics, announces the PhonoLink, a stereo, analog-to-digital USB interface.
The PhonoLink is Alesis’ latest addition to the AudioLink series of USB audio interfaces that enable musicians to connect analog audio sources directly to their computer and record them via a standard USB jack. The PhonoLink has stereo RCA inputs, which users can switch from line to phono level. Users can use the PhonoLink for converting music on records, tapes, or virtually any other source into digital audio wav or MP3 files.
The PhonoLink outputs studio quality 16-bit, 44.1 kHz digital audio thanks to its internal analog-to-digital conversion system. For archiving music from records, the PhonoLink features a built-in grounding terminal. For optimizing signal level, it has a convenient level control. The PhonoLink features plug-and-play connection for Mac and PC and is compatible with virtually all Mac and Windows class-compliant drivers and software.
“Many musicians have old collections of tapes and records in their basements,” said Adam Cohen, Director of Business Development, Alesis. “The PhonoLink is an easy, all-in-one way to convert it for use on today’s digital playback systems.”
