You cannot plug a record player directly into a computer soundcard......This is what you have to do:
1.)Plug your record player into the Phono input on your home stereo.
2.)Get a cable that has a 1/4" on one end and a 1/8" on the other
3.) Plug the 1/4" cable into the Phons jack on your stereo
4.) Plug the 1/8" jack into your sound card line in.
Walla!!!
- be sure that the 1/8" cable is balanced (TRS)
- when recording, arm 2 tracks for recording on your software. one should be the right side of your sound card, the other should be set up for the left side.
Your in business!
