Hi Folks, Newbie here...
I am a bedroom DJ, with a set of decks, a cheap mixing unit, which I run into my stereo to hear and record onto tape. This has worked fine up to now, and I have been happily producing tapes for friends etc.. With good sound quality and levels.
I have a laptop now also, with CD burner. What I would like to do is to record directly onto the hard drive, from the stereo, or mixer if I have to. Then burn the mix onto CD.
I would be grateful if someone else who has been in the same situation could give me advice on what I need to allow this, and any pitfalls-
I gather I need a decent sound card (recommendations?), I need software to convert the sound into mp3 from wav... (recommendations), and then I can burn.
I'll send a free cdisc to whoever can sort me out!
regards, and thanks in advance
David
