Does anybody know how to hook up a record player to a computer?

In short, no, there is not.

Sounds like you have an all in one record player, where the speaker is part of the box. Technically, with the correct external hardware, you could splice into the speaker wire to convert to an analog electronic signal. From that, you could hook it into a properly equipped sound card, or use an adapter to convert to a 1/8 jack and use the microphone input. However, this is very technical, and is not easy to do. Not to mention the horrible sound quality you will have.

If your goal is to get all of your records into digital format, I suggest finding a company locally that will do it. You will find DJ companies would be willing to do it. I do it with my DJ company, I charge $5 per record, the pricing should be about that.

Good luck!

No there is no way to hook a record player up to a computer, your talking about old technology that was in the era when computers were very primitive. The only way is if you know someone who knows how to alter or change the record player to be able to play or hook up to your computer. Other then that there is no way.

by portable cd player do u mean the old school walkmen types that you hook up to ur earphones? if you are than the cheapest way is to get you an fm transmitter from best buy and ur done. it works pretty good and your not messing with anything on the car. as far as the ac controlls well if its attached to ur factory radio than the tech is right, i haven't seen any aftermarket radio that has that kind of setup. ur gonna want to install a cd changer, ither in the trunk or under the glovebox. but like i said at first get you a fm transmitter, a decent walkman(portable cd player), and plug the transmitter into the headphone jack on ur cd player and set ur radio station to wat ever ur transmitter is on and tadaa..... ur good to goo dogg
