If your getting a computer with a CD burner in it and a decent sound card with stereo line level inputs you can mix-down your analog stuff direct to the computer and save the mix as a wave file and then once you have the track on the computer's hard drive, you can convert that file into a CD-A file with the burner's software program.

Stand alone CD burning software that works and is decent is Roxio Easy CD Creator 5 or 6 and wave file recording programs are also included with the sound card if you get a Sound-Blaster Audigy II card, there is a basic recording and editing program that will cover the basics. If you want to get really fancy and do a lot of editing, programs like Cool Edit and Cool Edit Pro work very well.

Cheers! :)
 
Man, that's a pretty cool little set-up as it is. Why dump it to a computer at all?

why not just buy a standalone CD burner?

Because wil a computer you can get the mix in with a 24 bit card, maximize the volume and the print a CD of it. With a standalone CD burner you won't (unless it's a Masterlink type deal).
 
some of the newer standalone burners have 24 bit converters on 'em. I'm just saying...

Chris
 
No, they'll BURN redbook, they can accept up to 24 bit 96 k, which means the converters have to be able to convert all the way up to that.

The HHB 830 I just purchased will burn redbook. It can accept either analog ins or digital ins.
