The complete package
LPs and cassettes are exposed to countless dangers – the best songs could be lost forever! This rescue package consists of powerful software and a high-quality phono pre-amp; use it to store your old hits on CD, DVD, MP3, and as an additional backup on your PC. Rescue your vinyl with this complete package!
Life expectancy of LPs
Dust and deposits as a result of fingerprints reduce the quality of your favorite songs and can distort the music more and more over time. Even if you listen to your records very seldom, they are still in danger: Storing records on the shelf close to the radiator can warp them over the years. And then there are always the unfortunate surprises: moving, pets, a party – records can be destroyed so easily, and the best songs are lost forever!
Quality loss through use
Who isn't familiar with this? Scratches happen so quickly, but they never go away! And there is another lurking danger: Old needles and turntables that aren't adjusted correctly reduce the quality of your records every time they are played. You have to be a real expert to know how a stylus has to be perfectly adjusted. The result: The songs that you play the most sound worse and worse over time.
Obsolete technology
Turntables are hardly manufactured anymore these days. The technology itself is susceptible, since many moving parts are involved. Replacement parts are hardly available anymore, and expensive repairs often aren't worth it. In the end, these devices will slowly but surely die out.
Tape dangers
The MAGIX complete package isn't just for saving your LPs. Cassettes, too, as well as all other audio media like tape reels can be digitized and saved just as easily. Cassettes are also harmed by use! The effects of time, the danger of "tape salad", and magnetism also play their part, and eventually, your valuable recordings will be gone forever!
To the rescue
Don't worry! With the music rescue package you can bring your entire music collection into the digital age – quickly, easily and in perfect quality. Just connect your turntable or cassette recorder to your PC via the included line pre-amp and start the included software. In a flash, your entire music collection is imported, perfectly optimized, archived on PC, or safely burned to CD or DVD. Your valuable music is rescued and you can enjoy your old hits even on vacation: For example, as a CD in your car or as an MP3 on your cell phone.
