The Audio-Technica AT-LP120 is a mid-range direct-drive turntable introduced in 2009 by the Japanese audio equipment manufacturer Audio-Technica. The AT-LP120 was intended to be a viable replacement for the long-running Technics SL-1200 series of turntables that was set to be discontinued in 2010. It supports both phono and line-level output[2] using a built-in preamplifier.

The turntable also has the ability to dub records directly to a computer in real-time using a USB connection.
