Can I use it to transfer music (i.e.sound) from LPs (records) and cassette tapes to a laptop or PC?

If the turntable or cassette player are not plug and play devices recognizedvby your computer it won' t matter what is used to connect it.

The unit will record directly from a cassette to CD. No computer needed. The USB allows you to import music from a flash drive to be recorded to CD.

Does your turntable or cassette deck have a USB port? If so, then this cable may likely work for you. If you hope to play audio out, then try and capture it from your computer via the USB port, i'm not sure what software might allow this, if any. http://www.avsforum.com/forum/index.php Avs forums might have more information for you here.

Yes you can. The unit comes with an easily understood user manual that explains in detail how to record music from both the USB and CD outputs to your cassette recorder.

Yes, depending on the source of the audio you are listening to. Most built in soundcards in laptops cannot surpass anything above CD quality. If you have the right source, this supports audio in the ranges of DVD Audio, SACD, and 24bit 96KHz vinyl rips.

I think the book says it will transfer records and tapes to cds.check your book that came with the recorder player. I haven't tried to do it so I am only going with what the book says

You want a sound interface to connect this to a PC and to input instruments - I use this one - Focusrite Scarlett 2i2 USB Recording Audio Interface

You need to make a file from your cassette to your PC, then you can make a CD from the PC.

This device converts analog audio (like from a mixer or ipod) into spdif digital audio. There's no usb or other computer connection. So if your windows machine has a spdif input (most don't), it should work fine.

No, this is analog you need a soundcard for it. MAybe look for some external ones, not as good but better. Don't waste your money for this for a laptop.

It can play cassette tapes and CDs through a receiver and separate speakers. Vinyl LPs are not able to play on this product, however, it can record them as an input option from a turntable.

As others have said - if your PC has a digital audio input (either coax or optical), then this device will convert your L/R audio signal into a digital signal for the PC to process. However, your phonograph doesn't have true L/R audio outputs (even though they look the same). The signal levels on your phonograph are very low and must be sent through an appropriate pre-amplifier. If your "analogue music centre" has tape-monitor (or REC) outputs for L/R audio, you could connect this device to that output and digitize the signal. The only part of the system you'd need at that point is an audio card for your PC with a toslink (optical) or digital coax input.

I would guess so but I haven't tried this. My usage is simple: I rip CDs to MP3 files on my laptop and transfer them to the Philips.

You can record on cassette from almost any input. I recommend getting the manual and reading through it here: http://www.pyleaudio.com/sku/PTTCSM60/Turntable-Boombox-Multimedia-System---Plays-AMFM-Radio,-CDs,-Cassettes,-MP3s,---USBSD-Memory-Ports-and-Vinyl-to-MP3-EncodingIt isn't written very well, but it outline all features in detail.

Sorry, I used it to transfer data between computers; did not use it for music transfer. Did what I needed flawlessly.

If you connect to a computer thru an usb port and have speakers on the computer you can listen to the input source such as a Turntable or tape deck.

as the description says you are able to record onto a USB which you should then be able to plug the USB into your computer and transfer the music.
