Can I do othr Things while Recording?

Hi, Well.. I was wondering if I can do other stuffs while im Recording Vinyl to WAV., I mean like Chat, visit web pages and stuffs like that?.. or could that affect to the recording?

sure u can. just make sure u have all ur computer noises turned down (aim chat msgs, internet flash websites, etc. and don't check your aol mail) or else you'll record them straight along with you set. altho i personally feel if i'm recording a set, i'd rather focus on the set then do something else. i missed many good entry points cuz i was doing something else.

umm, no you dont have to shut down all other sounds...

just make sure you're recording straight from line-in and you're fine...

was wondering

excatly how do all of you people have your turntables hooked up to your computers and what software do you use to record it and where can i get it?

You can go from your mixer's record out (rca) to TSR 1/8" (stereo headphone jack) via a cord from radio shack. You can plug your TTs directly into a turntable with certain soundcards that accept phono connections, but they aren't very common.
