I'm a newbie when it comes to computer recording. I've been playing around on my E4K board for a couple of years, but now I want to record and mp3 some of my songs. I used the main L/R 8 mm outputs on the board, used two 8 mm to RCA adapters, and finally put these in an audio adapter which fits in the mic input on my labtop (Inspiron 4000). I just acquired Cool Edit Pro, and noticed that upon recording base-line noise was terrible (like an old computer game that goes awfully wrong) (((. Played around with input levels, main volumes etc. but no progress. I noticed that the noise may be generated by the 2 8mm to RCA adapters, but I'm not sure. Why does nobody else seem to suffer from headaching background noise that even doesn't appear when I use maximum noise reduction on Cool Edit, is there an easier way or what am I doing wrong?
I noticed that my E4k also has a S/PDIF I/O!! I have however no clue of how to use that, or how to get that signal in my computer??? Would that be a valuable alternative!?
Pleazz, give me some baseliners here, I know you guys can do it!
Tx!!!
