Excellent Customer Service

USB Phono Plus arrived very quickly. Functions as advertised. Extremely pleased with this product and Sweetwater customer service assistance with the research for what I needed and selection. I needed something I could run RCA cable line out from my DJ mixer to my iMAC USB input. Sounds clear and strong signal. No echo or sousing like I'm in a tunnel. I also purchased the ProFX10v3 from Sweetwater previously for another DJ project setup I needed. The ProFX10v3 works fine too. Will recommend Sweetwater to all my DJ associates.

Saved me $500

I was looking for an audio interface to go from my Rowland 840 EX to a computer. The only digital outputs from the Rowland are digital optical and digital coaxial. I went to Sam Ash and was told that the cheapest interface to go from digital optical to USB would be around $600. This device proved them wrong. Don't let the label fool you. I'm sure it's a great interface from phono to computer, but it is also a great interface from digital optical or digital coaxial to USB. This device has turned what I thought was an obsolete multi-track recorder, back into my work horse.

ART USB Phono Plus Phono Preamp & Audio Interface

Very please with this unit as an upgrade to the Behringer U-Phono UFO202 I originally purchased. Behinger unit was out of stock and Brian VanDeKeere called and advised me of the lengthy lead time for it. Brian recommended the ART USB unit and I am extremely pleased with the performance and sound quality.
Rated 5/5

Turntable preamp

Never knew my vinyl could sound so good. Already had a preamp in my older receiver, but the ART unit sounds much better. The unit can be over driven easily, so you have to make sure the gain control is set before recording.
