Hello,
I'm brand new to this & not a good techy. What can I do to not have static & buzzing while I'm recording. I'm using Windows 7.
Thanks so much for your time & help!!

We need a little more help. What are you recording and how? Are you singing into a microphone plugged into your laptop computer?

No, I'm just talking into the mini laptop that I have. Basically, I'm just talking into the air near the laptop.
Thank you!

The built in microphones in laptops are notorious for being crap quality. Even a cheap USB microphone (such as a $15 logitech desktop mic) is likely to give you much better quality recordings.
