Im running an Asus Xonar Essence STX into my PC.    I am pretty sure its ASIO compatible. I would probably just record through that.   And actually, now that I think about it, wouldn't I technically be able to...

Is it maybe a good idea to record the vinyl to wav to store on my PC as sort of a permanent copy. I know that sort of defeats the whole point of going vinyl, but then I essentially get the best of both worlds.   This place I...

So I normally listen to FLAC through my PC. Running a Xonar Essence STX + DT770 Pro's (getting a little aged, about 4.5 years now).   Anyways, thinking about picking up the new Dream Theater album A Dramatic Turn of Events in...

Thanks a ton, I was trying to think of the easiest way to do it, never thought of using my onboard mic port.
