INTRODUCTION
PROFILE PRO connects directly to your computer to turn your treasured vinyl recordings into digital
music. We have included several software packages to aid you in converting your vinyl recordings.
You should install one of the following applications to take advantage of computer recording:
EZ Vinyl/Tape Converter (PC only) is the quickest and easiest way to turn your recordings into
digital media. EZ Vinyl/Tape Converter conveniently saves your recordings in your iTunes*
library. Novice users may find this application preferable. We have included a handy Software
Quickstart Guide with step-by-step instructions on software installation and operation.
EZ Audio Converter (Mac only) is a basic converter application for Mac OS X and is ideal for
novice users. Please refer to the included Software Quickstart Guide for step-by-step
instructions on software installation and operation.
To install the software: simply insert the included CD into your computer and follow the on-screen
instructions. After you finish converting your vinyl, you can then burn to CD or load onto portable
media devices.
