 Electronics : Griffin Technology iMic USB External Sound Card |
|
Rating:  - Be careful when ordering this item from Amazon!
Twice now I've tried to order the external sound card, the first time from TechNGnet and the last time from Target, and both times I received the iMic Hi Resolution USB Audio Capture device, which is NOT a sound card, it just filters out interference and artifacts from audio imported from vinyl, I guess. I have no use for it, now I have two laying around that I need to return. How the heck do I order the external sound card, if I can't even get it from this page which clearly has it displayed and described at the top? Irritating.

I just bought this device through Amazon and I absolutely LOVE it! I have some hard to find audio collection on audio cassettes, which I was hanging on to, but thankfully I can now discard them now that I have the entire content digitized and saved on my computer in MP3! The iMIC device is pretty much plug-n-play. However, you will need to download an audio capture program. I really like "Audacity", which is a shareware program and has some VERY powerful sound editing features. For example, removing that annoying "hiss" from the cassete sound is a snap with Audacity. You will also need to download MP3 encoder (Audacity website has this information). One word of caution: they claim that Audacity is not compatible with Windows Vista, but I had no problem with it to capture the audio. However, I could not export it into MP3. Not sure why, but I used my Windows XP computer and everything worked nicely. iMIC + Audacity is a great combo!
