I have the model 754B purchased at BestBuy. On that model the USB port on the back of the unit will output an audio stream from any of the devices on the Victrola unit, Radio, CD, Cassette, or Phonograph. I have tried them all! The cable carrying this audio stream is connected to a USB port on your computer and through the Audacity software, that is available free on line at audacity.com you can capture, save and process that audio stream into one of several different audio formats. The most common are MP3 or WAV files but several other music formats are available through Audacity. Just be advised I am on my third Victrola unit, on the first one the USB port on the front for playing music from a memory stick did not work. On the second unit the Cassette tape player did not work. So far everything is working on the third unit. As I have stated in previous comments, VICTROLA Customer Service is extremely poor. I have tried many, many times using the on line question tool at victrola.com and the phone line at Victrola and have never received a reply. There is no HOLD function on the Victrola phone line and while they say they will call you back, in the more than half dozen times I have called and left messages I have never received a call back. Also, to get the unit repaired under warranty you have to pay to ship it to New York, the unit weighs 27 lb. for me the cost to return it was $72. AND, you have to send a check with the unit to pay for handling and return shipping. This of course is if you can get an RMA from Victrola which is required for any return. Thank goodness for Best Buy Customer Service they have saved me both times by going above and beyond to help. If your going to buy one of the Victrola units, buy it from Best Buy or get burned. And buy the Geek Squad protection plan...SERIOUSLY. AND NO!! I don't work for nor am I associated with Best Buy except as a Customer.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.
