Thorens MM 008 ADC

The MM 008 ADC is equipped with a high-resolution analogue-to-digital converter allowing you to record vinyl tracks directly onto your computer’s hard disk. It will work both with Microsoft® Windows® and Apple® Mac OS® based computer

Both Microsoft® Windows® and Apple® Mac OS® come with very simple audio recording software pre-installed. However, to take full advantage of the high-resolution recording facilities offered by the MM 008 ADC, we recommend recording software that can record at 24 bits/96 kHz and save lossless high-resolution audio files such as FLAC or Apple® Lossless.
