Abstract
Using an iPad simplifies the digital transfer, with no need to relocate a turntable next to a computer. It's also an efficient mobile system for those who don't have a turntable - just take your iPad, UFO202 and a couple of LPs for a visit to a friend who has one.
Next, connect the USB interface from the camera kit to the iPadNow plug the UFO202's USB cable into the camera-kit interface. The UFO202 is powered by the USB interface, not the usual electrical supply. Only a USB-powered device like the UFO202 will work with the iPad when transferring vinyl.
Once you've transferred the tune or entire album, hit the "Share" button. I wanted to send part of an album by Joseph Spence, a Bahamian singer-guitarist, to my computer's iTunes library. I tapped "iTunes Sharing," chose the type of file I wanted - AIFF, an uncompressed file that preserves the LP's fidelity - then tapped "Send to iTunes."
