    So what software do you use to record sound through the computer's sound card? As for me, I'm using Soundforge, o--kay, does what it should but i need a basic one that is inexpensive or free audio editor or audio recorder. So what's the consensus here? Please.

    I've used Audacity for quite a bit of copying old LP's and CD's. Bare bones program but still a lot of functionality. Surprisingly powerful. http://audacity.sourceforge.net/

    I use a few apps for audio, Cubase, Wavelab and Cool Edit Pro, But Audacity is a good one for a freebie

    as stated above, what you want achieve can be done for free with Audacity.
    If you wanted to have a bit more fuctionality, I would go with Goldwave.
    I have been using it for years as a general purpose audio tool that is not very expensive and is packed with features. It has a smaller footprint and cost compared to SoundForge.

    Good luck

    Yeah FlexiMusic Audio Editor is good, is a good editor and the whole lot of recording options. I'm using it to record a song for a music video for a school project, and its working really good, makes it pretty easy for professional but not so expensive ($20). And before that I used Audacity which is free and easy to learn, and you can use tracks and such.

    Your soundcard should have some free software for it. Donload it from the site (i.e., Creative.com) I think Nero Suite has a tool for it too.
