4. Functions
To avoid all the hassle that was previously required to
digitalize records, the HAMA stereo preamp "PA-005
USB" offers characteristics of a preamp as well as an
audio interface between the record player and PC.
The "PA-005 USB" also offers additional functions
such as a switchable line-in and line-out and a
switch for the two magnet systems MC and MM. The
signal LED is lit constantly to indicate standby mode
and blinks to indicate recording.

Preparation

• Connect your record player to the "PA-005 USB"
via an RCA cable.
• Connect your PC via a USB A to mini USB (5-pin)
cable.
• Ensure that your record player has a magnetic
pickup. If your record player has a separate ground
lead, connect it to the additional screw.
• The "PA-005 USB" is detected as USB headset by
the PC or laptop; you therefore have to switch from
"microphone" to "LINE" on the PC or laptop.
Use
• Switch your record player on and place a record on it.
• Begin playback of the record.
• You can switch the MM/MC switch to select the
correct magnet system of your record player.
• Start the recording program on your PC or notebook.
Note
You can download different audio software on the
internet (e.g. Magix Audio Cleaning Lab)
