might sound dumb but bare with me. i am new to this whole DAC thing
im a musician who connects their digital piano to a computer using line out -> RCA -> computers line in port, which then is recorded through a program like audacity.
few questions
1. will a pure DAC override my computers soundcard in this case?
2. how do i make this connection work. do DACs have a line in port that i can plug into instead or something
3. will i be able to record the sound coming from the piano using the external DAC instead of my computers soundcard
4. my computers sound is 'realtek HD audio'. would using an external DAC make a significant difference
a bit redundant any advice would be appreciated, thanks heaps!
