New interest in records has led to the development of turntables with additional modern features. USB turntables have a built-in audio interface, which transfers the analog sound directly to the connected computer.<ref>{{cite web |url=http://recordplayerreviews.org/vinyl-conversion-to-digital/ |title=Vinyl to USB Conversion |publisher=recordplayerreviews.org |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20160730142506/http://recordplayerreviews.org/vinyl-conversion-to-digital/ |archive-date=2016-07-30 }}</ref> Some USB turntables transfer the audio without equalization, but are sold with software that allows the EQ of the transferred audio file to be adjusted. There are also many turntables on the market designed to be plugged into a computer via a [[USB]] port for [[needle drop (audio)|needle dropping]] purposes.<ref>{{cite web |url=http://www.knowzy.com/usb-turntable-comparison.htm |title=USB turntable comparison |publisher=Knowzy.com |date=2008-12-01 |access-date=2011-10-12 |url-status=live |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20110713162826/http://www.knowzy.com/usb-turntable-comparison.htm |archive-date=2011-07-13 }}</ref>

Modern turntables have also been released featuring [[Bluetooth]] technology to output a record's sound wirelessly through speakers.<ref name=":0" /> Sony have also released a high-end turntable with an [[analog-to-digital converter]] to convert the sound from a playing record into a 24-bit [[high-resolution audio]] file in [[Direct Stream Digital|DSD]] or [[WAV]] formats.<ref>{{Cite web |last=Cox |first=Jamieson |date=2016-01-06 |title=This new Sony turntable is turnt |url=https://www.theverge.com/2016/1/5/10713652/sony-ps-hx500-turntable-high-res-audio-ces-2016 |access-date=2024-05-04 |website=The Verge |language=en}}</ref>
