    Quiet track on Tascam 4track

    I have a Tascam 4-track that I got five years ago. I'm not sure what model, because I'm at work and the 4track's at home, but looking at the Tascam web page it looks most similar to the 414 Portastudio, though it is black and has flat dials instead of tall ones. Anyhow, for a couple of years...

    CD burner can of worms

    So this is a pretty basic question about getting a CD-R or CD-RW drive. I'm looking into getting one for my computer, mainly to use for putting songs recorded on 4track from tape onto CD. I'm a college kid, so I'm looking to get a pretty cheap one, preferably under $300. My questions: is it...
