Thanks alot guysWelcome, as always, it's a constant question, and it is in the forums. With this deck it has to be done in real time, You need Audacity, or Mrcs renderer, both in the download section. You then take a 1/8 male to male cable and go from the line out or headphone jack of your deck, put the other end into the input of your sound card, press play on the deck, and record from your sound program.Alternatively, you could get an RH1 and do it all digitally, and the you could have lots of fun with the RH1Good luck,Bob Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KJ_Palmer Posted July 4, 2007 Report Share Posted July 4, 2007 Press the big red Record button in Audacity and that will capture what's being played through the sound card. You'd want to make sure that 2 channels for stereo are selected in the Audio I/O Recording preferences as I believe the default is mono (1 channel), and the input level may need adjusting so it's not too loud or quiet. Press stop after each track, deleting any blank lead in and out, and probably some normalisation would need to be applied. The recorded track can then be exported to Wav or MP3 or whatever.
