Hi... I know that this top has come up several times in the discussion board but for some reason I still dont understand compleately how to do this... Before I had a Sony MZ-R37 (a very old model) and I had access to a CD burner at school but since then, I don't go to the same school and that mini disc player is broken.. So I bought new Sony MZ-N707.. There are several basic differnces that confuse me a little. This MD player doesn't have a "line out" but just a headphones jack. Also, I have a great computer with a CD burner. Now my questions are... 1) What volume level should I have my MD player set at when playing into the computer. 2) What program should I use to make the wave file. (I know there is the sound recorder but it has weird poping sounds, even with the properties on CD quality I still hear poping) Thanks in advance for helping me out - James
