Linda, Thanks for the response. You know my main goal is to record family members stories and place them on a family tree cd with other multimedia files. However, I am enjoying the music libary that came with this MD. I have started taking it to work and now I am using it as a player. I am lucky and have scored some great concert stuff (Dead, Phish, Matthews . . .) and some cd/album recordings. I wonder if you can trade recordings? Sorry ... whole other topic.... Let me ask you about the 'levels'. Are the levels on the MD or on Audacity? Also, when you setup Audacity how'd ya figure out how to setup all the options in prefrences. Would someone comment as to my Audacity options values, I would be interested to know how they compare to others. Quality: Default Sample rate = 44100Hz Default Sampe Format = 32-bit float Real-Time sample rate converter = High-quality Sinc Interpolation Real-Time dither = none High quality diter = Triangle File formats: Uncompressed Export FOrmat = WAV (microsoft 16 bit PCM) OGG Qaulity = 5 Spectrograms: FTT Size = 256 Thanks in advance.

Hello all, I plan to record family stories and put the stories on the e-family tree. I won a NetMD player/recorder on ebay. So far I have, played songs, recorded my voice, loaded Audicity, uploaded (from NetMD to PC) a song and exported the song to a wav file. BTW this was all done using assistance from this post. Thanks A440, Linda, and others who contributed this post. Your clear questions, answers and kinder spirit has made the recording journey a pleasant one.... My question is. When playing wav file (recorded and converted from the NetMD) on Audicity or Winamp it does not sound as good as playing the song directly from the NetMD. What should I do? Restated in an attempt to add clarity. Playing a song on my NetMD connected to my PC, sounds better than the same song uploaded, converted (using Audicity) to a wav file and played using Audicity or Winamp. The difference can really be heard during the vocals portion of the track/song. What should I do?
