3) Is there a better program I can use to import the further recordings I make (the one thing the program I use has going for it is that it splits each side of the record up into the individual songs) Yes ... Audacity. See: http://manual.audacityteam.org/man/Tutorial_-_Copying_tapes,_LPs_or_minidis...

... I do NOT get any sound from the computer speakers. Then I push the record button and I can see the waveforms in the bottom window, BUT I still do NOT get any sound from the speakers. Then I click to reset to the start mark and click play and it starts playback BUT I still do NOT get any sound f...

Another option is to use "Total Recorder" http://www.highcriteria.com/ It's not free, but at under $20 it's not expensive (free trial available). My wife's new laptop with W7 couldn't be configured with Audacity to record streaming audio - so she bought Total Recorder and is delighted wit...

I note that in 1.2 Dominic Mazzoni (one of the originators of Audacity) had the N...

An electronic wizard friend has extracted the output from the preamp stage (and isolated it safely!)and so I can feed a properly equalised signal of th...

Richard, yes the forum elves have recently become aware that spammers are abusing the PM system in that way. The particular user that sent you a PM has been deleted along with all of his/her posts. Thanks for alerting us to this. If this persists we may have to consider withdrawing the PM functional...

Most USB sound cards will record only the left channel if you select "1 channel (mono)" in Audacity, but I think that some internal sound cards will mix left and right input channels when "mono" is selected. Ah that's interesting - as you know I run a USB soundcard and it does j...
