Ok . . I've got YAMP. I convert my file from wave to MP3, or so I think. Now, when I go to MP3 website and upload my song it tells me my file name must have MP3 at the end of it. It doesn't. My file says C:\MyDocuments\(Song name).wav. Can anyone tell me what I'm doing wrong. I watch YAMP...

Thanks bball. You rock!

I'm trying to get my stuff on MP3. I click on batch conversion and it says I need an MP3 encoder. Then I go to LAME and am really lost. Where's the download? What am I supposed to dl? I recorded my tapes onto Goldwave and am now trying to convert. Any help would be appreciated! Thanks...

If I hear God speaking to me (literally) I think I'd sh*t my pants! But IMO I think God would rather you buy recording equipment than a car. At least with recording you're not destroying the atmosphere and making the world unbearable for all of the "lesser" animals, not mention yourself. But...

thanks for the tips emeric and bball. I believe I will, indeed, go gold. It even says on the homepage "perfect converting tape and records to wave files." Yippee!!

Hey bball, thanks for taking the time to help me. I've got riptide playback. Will that suit my purposes? When I bring up advanced audio properties I have hardware accelaration (none to full) and sample rate conversion quality (good to best.) I assume I want both maxed. If you don't mind...

Groovy. I'm gonna check out that website right now. Correct me if I'm wrong, but I already have a soundcard built into my comp don't I (HP Pavillion?) Thanks for the response.

Sorry for such a lame question but any input would really help: Ahem . . . I've been listening to a lot of your guys' music on MP3 and have concluded that I would like to inflict my ditties on the masses as well. I wish to convert analog to digital on the cheap. What do I need to purchase and...

Do me a favor God: When you try this out let me know how it works. I don't have a mixer and probably won't be able to get one anytime too soon. I'd be interested to hear your results. Thanks, lumpygravy1@juno.com

Ok, my 2 cents worth. In following the debate: Neil Young: I agree with effedupstrat; NY really tries to be creative and has an unusual approach. Keep in mind this guy started in the early 70's and nobody played the guitar quite the way he did. Jimmy Page: I'm sick of LZ after listnening...

Oh my God! "Wow!" does not adequately convey my astonishment. What an improvement; micing my guitar amp instead of using the line out on the back of the amp! I used the crappiest mic of all time (some radio shack special), layed against the speaker. The tone on the tape actually reflects the...

If somebody would be kind enough to answer a newbie question I'd appreciate. I've been told that I can get a much better guitar sound if I mic it rather than use my line out. Do you guys agree? If this is the case then I have another question. I'm already using 2 lines for my drums, 1 for...

Thanks guys. If anybody else reads this do you agree? Does my guitar sound reedy cuz the line out is compressing the signal?

Anybody who can help me get a good guitar sound out of my Tascam 424 4-track will have my undying gratitude. I can get good bass, drums and keyboard but my guitar sound always sounds so squished. My eq bands don't seem to help much, just a tiny tweak of the two mids yields very wide results...
