I appreciate any help from all you experts out there. I have several cassettes I want to put on cd, preferably mp3 style. I hooked my cassette deck " line out L-R" using a dual cable on one end and a single on the other end I plugged into the back of the pc's line IN. I down Loaded the program Waveflow and recorded a 4 min. sample. I can listen to the music being recorded, but when I played it back it was terrible, very scratchy like trying to squeeze all that sound out of a tiny speaker. I tried various settings in the Volume control center under options,properties, recording. I could not check the box for line IN in recording control. I am using Windows XP. My PC is supposed to be brand new top of the line for all media, HP Media center pc M370n. so what gives? What am I doing wrong here. Oh by the way. I did try to click on advanced tab in Souns and Audio devices for recording and it is greyed outm will not let me change this at all. Any help please. Thank you.

P.S. I have a front panel with various jacks. ones in paticular are
L-R audio input. I plugged my cable into these but no sound. what are these for if not for devices external input?

Sounds like an Audigy Platinum 5 1/2" deck....

if so...you have to go into the Creative task bar and select record "from" this particular input....

BTW....it's still the same issue as in the Newbie forum....tape decks don't push enough signal...you need an amplifier inbetween....

and oh yeah....
just FYI...
It aint cool to cross post the same question in multiple forums...
no biggie man....just a pet peeve of the site.....ya know?

good luck...
