I KNOW this has been asked many times before, but the search button isnt working, I tried searching the internet and couldnt find it. I want to record from my FM radio onto the computer, what do I need to make that happen?
Can any1 direct me to an old thread that it was described in that maybe they have saved or something?
Many Thanks!

What you need is a soundcard with line in capabilites.
You need a cable that goes out from you're reciever or amplifier to you're card and finally you need a recording program like Soundforge 6.0
This soundcard is nice.

The thing with total recorder is that the quality isn't that great. There is an annoying hissing sound in the background of the recordings.
Atleast it's so for me. :) |

| I use a WinTV card, It comes with a built in FM tuner, I have the card's audio out connected to the sound card internally using a CD-Rom Audio Cable connecting it to the card's Aux In, Since I have the Sound Blaster Live Platinum 5.1, I switch the recording input to What U Here and then I just mute everything else except Auxiliary, Then I use Soundforge or Total Recorder to record from that source. :) |

i like soundforge personally. its a sweet program, easily availble on direct connect or elsewhere. all you have to do is select your recording input by double clicking the volume icon in the taskbar and looking at the recording properties. perfect quality. be sure to mute things you aren't using though.
