Sorry I can't really help here, but I assume you mean a turntable. Check out Linn turntables - they might make something that can be plugged inot a PC. Not sure. But their turntables are the best. I'm sure Pioneer make something along those lines as well.
By the way, if he makes electronic music an Akai MPK 25 would be a great gift.

Welcome aboard MD, Banoffee ! Sorry I don't know enough about good turntables. Jerome is the best one to ask and he's replied to you.

i bought a relatively cheap one a couple of years ago...bought a Numark one...it has a USB terminal for computer plug-ins, i dont play vinyl much but it does the job when required.
that said...Jerome is the audio tech guy here so i suggest you probably take him on his word
