So now here he is...speaking for himself <BG> "I'm trying to find a way to get voice and music recorded in MP3 format. Currently I'm using a turntable, 2 CD units, a mike and a tape unit all which are fed into a mixer board, then fed into a cassette tape recorder. I want to put it on a CD or even on an MP3 file. I have lots of HD space and a burnable CD unit on the computer. My problem is to find a computer based recording program which is simple enough to use. I have Pro Edit, and Music Match however, these programs are designed for high end users who want to record original music with a kazillion features which I don't need. I only want to feed a stereo line into a program, transfer to a wave file, then to a MP3 file and either send via the net or burn on a CD and send in the mail. When I discuss this with other people they get all fired up and start trying to tell me about how I can manipulate the input and take out pops and hiss etc. I don't need that stuff, I just want a simple recording system to be able to upload a two hour, canned program of a radio show." He says 2 hours worth of stuff...which seems, to me at least, like an awful lot to cram onto a CD... he then talks about sending it via the net if he gets any takers... would that be an FTP situation... and my gawwd!! how long would that take even with a cable connection and how big a hard drive would be needed? The 'voice' part seems relatively straight-forward. Mic into soundcard... could use Windows recorder. Getting all the other sources" turntable, cd's 'seems' to be a case of 'line out' from mixer...to "line in" on the sound card. Yes/No?? and I guess now that I think about it... the mic doesn't need to go directly into the soundcard if it's already going into the mixer. My friend George is heavily into bluegrass music...knows more about it... its history has more of it etc..than any 10 nose pic...uhhh I mean flat* pickers :) you care to name. :) Anyway... he figures there's a market..and has had some interest from the cassette's he's sent out... but these days it's hard to find a radio station that still uses tape of any description. Since this forum is Multi-media... thought I'd ask Hope I haven't been tooooo confoooozzing.. but hey... this is the Asylum! <BG> Thanx for what comes back nj Loading...
