Guest Anonymous Posted December 19, 2002 Report Share Posted December 19, 2002 Hi! My name is Mathias, I'm from Vienna, Austria, and I've got a question about recording music from a computer to a MD. I've read that I don't have to set recording level if I'm recording from digital source with a TOSLINK cable. Well, I've got a Guillemot MaxiSound Fortissimo Soundcard which has an "Optical Out", which means a TOSLINK Output Port if I understood this things correctly. Now I tried to record a playlist from WinAmp to my portable MD-Player/Recorder, one of the expensive Sony models, and the result was extremely silent. Now I was surprised, because I had thought that I wouldn't have to set recording levels! So I set the volume a bit louder in WinAmp and tried again. Now the first track was ok on the MD, but the second track, a hard rock song, was much too loud and in a bad quality. So I had to adjust recording level after each track. This can't be the sense of digital recording! Could you please tell me what I have to do, when I just want to create a playlist and get it onto my MD, with no track too loud or too silent? Is it possible that my soundcard is just not capable of doing this? If so, I would buy a new one, but which? I would very much appreciate if you could help me! A merry christmas to all of you Mathias Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
